Only three stars, but it definitely deserves more. It's very neat, clean, comfortable, with plenty of facilities, nicely decorated, beautiful in every sense!
The food is great, tasty and it is served in the Bedouin Tent, where you have entertainment program at 8.30pm, but I always escaped from that event, it's not my type of a thing, so i can't tell you how it is. I just saw belly dance performance once, which was fabulous!!!
In the hotel complex there is a pool, lots of shops (water is essential, you can't drink tap water! However, it costs more than in the downtown, 5 punds, while in Hurgada supermnarkets it is 3.50 Egyptian pounds), restaurants, childrenj playgrounds, gardens, lovely divans on the terrace of the rooms building, etc.
There is air conditioning, satellite TV, nice bathroom, the only trouble are cockroaches, which are harmless, but thez crawl in under the door, it's inevitable. I know that a lot of people are disgusted, and probably that is why they can't get a 4th star :-), but really, all they do is crawl in the edges of the room, and never climbing on the beds, yourself, etc... They even escape when they see a man! So no worries!
Hotel has its own beach, where the first part is very shallow water, some 100-200m even, but if you go further to the edge of the pier (another 50m), there is a coral reef, and you can go to the deep water normally. There are a lot of colourful fish, corals and extremely exuberant submarine life!
There are two beach restaurants, both at the pier edge and at the beach where the shallow water is. There are some shops on the beach too, massage center, travel agency, hair dresser, Red Sea Divers scuba diving center is also there...
