wonderful stay with really good service

clean room amazing view excellent beach delicious food

I enjoyed my time at this lovely spot. mr bassem radwan deserves special recognition for his excellent professionalism. He arranged a clean, spacious room with a amazing view. mohamed ramadan ensured a fast check-in process, and mohamed el sohagy from housekeeping created creative towel designs. the beach was excellent. The pools were great. The food was varied and delicious.

i noticed the absence of waiter service around the pool area. It would have added a lot to the experience. the lack of a bar next to the water slides reminded me of a missed opportunity for refreshment.
