"Stunning location but in the middle of nowhere, not for teenagers/young people looking for lively nightlife! Hotel guests 99% Italian but reception/bar/waiting staff all spoke fairly good English. Entertainment was all in Italian so felt abit left out but did nt bother us that much. Bar service was good no queueing and beach bar was excellent they did chips/burgers/hotdogs etc and were very friendly. Food served was the usual Egyptian fayre there was plenty of choice and the BBQ s were excellent. The House reef was stunning we saw Stingrays and white eels but be warned the current was very strong and the red flag was flying afew days! Beach was good loads of wooden sunbeds with parasols and windbreakers. A good holiday choice if you like snorkelling/diving or just chilling out. My son wants me to mention the swimming pool it is HUGE with a jucuzzi which we practically had exclusive rights to."

"Negatives first... We had no towels in the room upon arrival, and still didn't have any by the following night despite asking reception to sort it. Eventually resolved by telling our rep. We didn't have any hot or even luke warm water at all for the first half of the holiday despite repeatedly telling reception. Again, only resolved by speaking to our rep. Room is basic and gets uncomfortably hot unless you turn on the air con which sounds like a tank rolling through your room. Water in bathroom smells strongly of poo, we had to keep the bathroom door shut to keep the main room smelling alright. Don't know if this is because the area in general isn't well developed or what. Hotel is mainly full of German/Italian guests, and most of the English spoken by staff is basic. Food is pretty limited, have stayed in Egypt before and ate four meals a day but had to resort to buying £2 bags of crisps a few times to see me through when I didnt fancy rice and unknown brown meat again. We knew there would be a lack of things to do at night from the reviews we'd read but there is literally nothing around for mile upon mile! And we were advised against going to the nearest town El Quesir by our rep. And also against Marsa Alam which he said is just a collection of hotels and is over an hours drive away. Positives... The weather (which at the end of the day is what we went for, we knew not to expect much from a 3 star in Egypt). The two beaches are nice. Shallow water and snorkelling on both, saw some incredible fish. Pool area is decent enough. Drinks were fine, beer was nice, and spirits plentiful, didn't try any wine."

It is fine for a week only very quiet No restaurants or shops outside of the hotel and There wasn't much entertainment in the evening at all. MEALS WERE GOOD THERE WAS ALWAYS SOMETHING YOU COULD EAT, AND NO TUMMY PROBLEMS."
