“The resort distinguishes itself with the only fully sandy beach in Sahl Hasheesh, a definite plus for families. Its all-inclusive dining options span from international to Brazilian, and the on-site spa provides a range of treatments; however, the food quality seems inconsistent. Though some areas could use updating, the staff's exceptional service and the beachfront location provide solid value, especially considering the competitive pricing.”

The food had plenty of choice for breakfast, lunch and dinner, I found this great. The beach is sandy. It is easy to walk into the sea. I thought the hotel was clean. The staff are friendly, which I liked a lot.
I found the gym a smelly dark room in the basement. It has some old fitness equipment! The age of the hotel is noticeable in various places. That's true!
