We vacationed with a family of 3 people from July 6-20, 2024. The room was originally with a view of the garden. But! When we saw him, we were shocked. In short, the air conditioner and TV did not work in it, and there is no balcony, respectively, there is nowhere to dry things. We asked to change the room (we were even ready to pay extra) but, they changed our room to a bungalow for free. This room was much better. It consisted of three small rooms, each room had air conditioning, a refrigerator, a kettle, a hair dryer, shampoo and shower gel, a bunch of towels, and a private exit to the terrace. Despite the fact that the hotel has old furniture, plumbing - everything worked. We were satisfied with this option and we settled in. The room is cleaned daily, even to the point that bed linen is changed every day. But we didn't need it, so they refused to clean it. The staff is very friendly, not annoying! There was always enough space in the dining room, on the pool and on the beach. The food is quite edible, there is always fish, chicken, beef, shrimp. Fruits and drinks also pleased me. It's not expensive, of course, like in 5 stars, but everything is at a decent level. There are no complaints about the hotel and the staff. But excursions from anex tour are something! There are a lot of questions and no answers from our individual guide. We took a tour of 7 wonders for 100 bucks per person. We had to go in the morning to the sands (canyon, quadriceps, camels), and after lunch a yacht with diving stops and the Egyptian Maldives. In fact, in the morning, while the weather was not very hot, we were taken on a yacht. There was a diving stop (those who wanted to dive). I'm not interested in this and I was waiting, like many girls, for the Maldives! But, the second stop was just for swimming in the sea. To the question to the guide who was with us on the tour, when will we get to the Maldives? He was at a loss, which Maldives? And I got out of it as best I could. I called our hotel guides, found out something, but we arrived at the port without seeing the Egyptian Maldives. They were upset. But the tour continued and we were taken on Bedouin jeeps to the sands to ride quadricycles. It was already a decent heat, 45-47 degrees for sure. It was possible to ride quadricycles only in pairs. One at a time for a fee, as they said on the spot. Children cannot sit on their own, and in front of an adult, only from the age of 16. My daughter was riding with her husband (she is 16 years old), but I did not get a pair. Therefore, I had to go with the owner of the quadric. But! he didn't let me steer, he put me back, and he was driving. What the hell do I need such rides for? I wanted to go for a ride myself, and I went on this tour confident that I would go for a ride. My driver explained to me That I could not and would not be able to drive, and I did not even have the opportunity to try. In short, the quadrics upset me too, as did the yacht. Camel riding took about 3 minutes. One small circle. Well, God be with them. As a result, according to what criteria the 7-hour tour was chosen, we did not get what we wanted. It was possible to save money. Take a yacht for 25 bucks and quadrics for 17 and that's it! There is nothing else to see on this tour. And this is not only my opinion, but the opinion of the whole group with whom we went on the tour. Back at the hotel, I wrote to the hotel guide about the discrepancy between his stories and the realities. But, he said that he would clarify why it happened to the guide who accompanied us on the tour. But I'm still waiting for an answer. In short, if it weren't for these unpleasant moments with the tour, everything would be great! And so, the sediment remained precisely because of the tour operator ANEX TOUR. I recommend the hotel, but I do not recommend excursions. Because it's not going to be the way the guide tells you anyway. We did not go to Cairo, because the road takes 6 hours in one direction, but in fact 9-10 hours in one direction. This was told to us by the vacationers on the yacht, who had already fucked up with the tour. Apparently, there is such a feature, do not finish the nuances, otherwise no one will take it. I hope my feedback will be useful!
A good hotel, 10 out of 10 service, delicious food. We lived in a 2003 room, employee Mohamed Ahmed does his job well, is a responsible and very kind guy. Thanks to him and the other hotel staff!
The food is varied, always fresh and in abundance. The service from reception to cleaning is excellent. The beach is clean. There are enough sun beds. The rooms are clean with good plumbing and quiet air conditioning. Convenient location of the hotel, walking distance to the old town. The territory is well maintained. Two pools. I definitely recommend it.
The hotel is nice, family-run, you can have a good rest. Interesting evening programs, delicious cuisine.
Of the cons, I can say that the room did not have a balcony and solid beds, in general, the hotel is solid 4!
Good evening. We arrived at this hotel for the first time in January 2024. For a week. In Egypt for the first time, they met well, settled into basic knowledge. We arrived late (we had time for dinner), woke up in the morning and were surprised by the view, the view is gorgeous. Clean territory. The waiter boys are very good, in the restaurant, and by the pool.
The sea is gorgeous, warm, we've been swimming all day.
I liked everything, I didn't even have time to blink an eye, and fly home.
All the vacationers were funny, laughing (stomachs hurt)
The animators were cool in winter. Mickey and so on.
We decided to go in May , but already for 11 nights.
We arrived, settled in, and then we considered all the disadvantages. But the eyes were closed, but the attitude of some hotel employees (spoils the whole mood) , the food is the same, shrimp are given 4 pieces in hand (once a week, Tuesday), the room can be said not to be cleaned, swept clean, put water on, and put shampoo, everything else was sometimes asked. They forgot the machine at home, my husband asked at the reception, they told him (I have to go buy machines for my money), and in winter they gave you a machine. Then they brought the machine to the room. We could have bought it, but it was hot during the day, and we went to the pharmacy only in the evening. So we decided to ask . There are employees at bars, they are too arrogant, I don't drink alcohol, but my husband was not happy, as long as he says you don't tip them a dollar, only then they smile.
Oh, there are good boys, they work right, it's not a pity to give them money. And bring chocolates. Since we were in January, we remembered them. Mustafa (waiter at the restaurant), Ashar-Mohamed (bartender by the pool),
Mukhamed (the bartender in the restaurant, he's a pity he quit) . There are also employees. You won't remember all the names.
+ Sea, sand, and everything is nearby (you don't need to go anywhere) , everything is nearby, pharmacies and restaurants, and go for a walk wherever you want. The food is good, monotonous. There were fruits. Irina is an administrator, a very pleasant woman, until you tell her, she was the only one who could solve the issue.
- the attitude of some hotel employees.
Let's go to this hotel, probably not.
Only from across the sea, since the bay is a very good entry for a child.
We also managed to fly for cheap in May. 230 for three people for 11 nights.
In January, for the week 147.
Now there are more than 300.
I didn't even go for 200, my husband just persuaded me.
We have to go to different hotels.
Hello everyonejust returned from the hotel today, a family vacation with a 3-year-old child)I will say right away the only negative, this is the main bartender, he is rude, but we had a conversation with him!and so honestly, the hotel is good, the rooms are old, but it doesn't smell old, damp,everything is clean,they are cleaned every day,initially I left an application to the bungolo settlement, they settled right away, everything worked, the most important thing is to approach and talk!There is little food, but it is of high quality!There were fruits!Boxed juices are not upi!The animation is super, especially Alexander (Alex) and the girl, in my opinion Nastya (children's animator), they are great!Every day there is a children's animation, live music,dancing, contests!The beach is perfect for a child and there is something for adults to see!Honestly, if it wasn't for this bartender, everything would be great!and so for a family, relaxing holiday, the most important thing, we thought we would not return here,but after passing the hotels we compared places and beaches,stories about food, realized that this is a great hotel;, yes, there is no cool lobby, but this is not the main thing,the territory is large and beautiful,and the view is gorgeous,the sea is super,animation well done,cleaning super, we'll be back here again)thanks for the rest)by the way, do not be afraid that there will be two more hotels on the beach, there are enough places for everyone, really)there was a foam party for children and magic tricks on the stage)by the way, this is not the first time we have traveled, and I wanted to write a review about this hotel.if you are looking for peace and the sea, you are here, and the animation is good.at first, we wondered why people come here several times, as a result, at the end of the rest we were convinced)))))))
We had a rest in early August at this hotel. We flew from AlMasria, the flight to Egypt was delayed for 30 minutes, and back for 3 hours. Be sure to bring socks with you, you will have to take off your shoes and walk barefoot on the floor on the return flight. By the way, hand luggage at the airport in Egypt was inspected three times.
The hotel is a solid 4. The territory is small, well maintained. Very beautiful views of the Sinai Mountains, the sea, the Old Town, as the hotel is on a hill. The food is normal, typical of Egypt. Wi-Fi is best caught in the main restaurant and in the reception area. We took a SIM card from the local Orange operator at the airport.
As written, the furniture is old, but not critical. The air conditioner makes terrible noise, be sure to take earplugs if you sleep lightly. The air conditioner was constantly leaking, they called the master at the reception, but did not fix the problem. They did not change the number. We lived in bungalow #3038, there were 2 terraces with chairs and a clothes dryer. According to the location, this is a good room, it was very quiet, the neighbors are only on the side and there is an elevator to the beach next to it.
It takes 15-20 minutes to get to the Old Town on foot, bypassing, if you go through the beach, it's faster, but at night the passage through the beach is closed.
In the Old City, they went to the mosque, it's free, women need to wear a long dress with sleeves and a headscarf, everything is given out there for free. But there's not much to see there, you have to take off your shoes before entering the mosque.
We went to Naama Bay for $3 via the iDrive app. Ordinary taxi drivers want 5-7 dollars for the same trip.
There are retail outlets near the Albatros Aqua Blue Hotel within walking distance of the hotel. There is a Russian pharmacy and a Point Market supermarket, with normal prices. The Mango Market store is further away, there is no point in going there. We bought all souvenirs, tea, coffee in Naama Bay at the Fix Price store. Mangoes are there for a dollar per kilogram.
I liked the sea, it's clean, there are always free sun loungers on the beach. The beach to the left of the elevator is full of fish, but there are few of them. If you go further where the guard's booth is and persuade him to let you through, you will see a live reef with lots of fish. Keep in mind, there are no rescuers and buoys, all responsibility is on you. It is better to go there at 8-9 in the morning.
The beach to the right of the elevator is normal. Be sure to take corals with you, there may be rocks on the bottom anywhere on the beach. And the sand on the beach is unpleasant, hard, with pebbles.
What I didn't like was going from the beach to the sea! Basically, it's just a pile of wet stones, it's unclear why the administration won't make a normal descent.
The price of the tour includes
attending the Neverland show. It's quite watchable, beautiful costumes and dancing, you can go. The food is not very good during the show, everyone is served the same thing.
Tourists, take care of the reefs! Don't break them off! And be sure to use sunscreen on physical filters - titanium dioxide and zinc, because creams on chemical filters destroy the ecosystem of the sea.
A good hotel, although the rooms in the main building are old. Old furniture, a sloppy shower curtain. However, everything is compensated by the courtesy of the staff and the cleanliness they create. Our room is cleaned by Mohammed, just a good guy! Quickly, without unnecessary movements, responds to all requests without delay. A nice bonus in the form of animal-shaped towels. Everyone in the restaurant is doing great too! Clean, tasty, polite! There is always enough of everything! The animation is active despite the heat. The beach is clean, there are always free sunbeds. And the most important thing is the fish in a small coral island. There are few corals, not very bright, but there are all kinds of fish here, so snorkeling is quite pleasant!
A good hotel, there are rooms after renovation, and there are tired rooms.The staff is all friendly.The food and drink are varied, there's a lot of everything.The beach is big, there are plenty of sun beds for everyone.There is an animation.
I'm staying at this hotel for the second time! The hotel is super! The territory and animation are super! I think I will come here more than once!
I have been living in room 4112 for the second week, it is serviced by Ahmed Mohamed. He does his job very efficiently. The room is always clean and tidy. Towels are changed every day. Ahmed is a polite, kind and responsible guy. There have never been any complaints about the cleaning and cleanliness of the room. Many thanks to him and other hotel staff for their work!
I really liked the hotel and the location of the room. Everything is at the level that you dream about and wait for on vacation. I would like to express special thanks to the person who cleaned the room. Shebl- you're cool! There have never been any complaints about the cleaning and cleanliness of the room.
The figures alone, what were they worth?
I highly do not recommend this hotel. Repairs are required literally everywhere. The territory is small. The food is tasteless. There are queues and uncomfortable tables in the dining room (you can't call it a restaurant). There are shells in the omelette and dirty plates. It is stuffy in the heat, since the air conditioners do not work almost, in the evening it is cold on the veranda because of the wind.
The only advantage of the hotel is a convenient, gentle entrance to the sea, for those who are afraid of the depth. However, the beach is shared with three other albatrosses on the second line, so at 9-10 o'clock there are no places at sea, there is practically no free sunbed.
There are many fish in the sea, including dangerous ones, we saw a stingray, a surgeon's fish right in the shallow water, and we also saw a huge two-meter moray eel.
It should be noted that nearby on the outskirts of the beach there are some pipes from which some liquid drains into the sea (I hope it wasn't a sewer after all)
The beach is quite close to the hotel, a staircase leads down (approximately 15th floor in terms of the number of steps) and an elevator with dirty windows.
Cleaning of rooms and on the beach for three. The rooms themselves are very tired and cramped, almost everything is broken in the shower (we lived in the main building overlooking the pool)
There are two swimming pools on the territory, the water is cool.
We didn't need animation, but there is practically none here, except for yoga on the beach in the morning and dancing in the pool after lunch. Sometimes there is an evening show, but at the amateur level of the younger kindergarten group.
We tried a little hard for Halloween and a foam party on the beach, but that's it.
And if you do not need a gentle entrance to the sea, I strongly advise you to choose another hotel. But there are also more interesting coves on the beach (coral Bay, naama Bay)
On top hotels, reviews for this hotel are most likely paid (in the telegram channel of the hotel there is a girl allegedly a tourist very similar to the Guest of the hotel, who actively promotes it)
Draw your own conclusions from the photo below.
The territory is huge, there are many pools, a gym on the street, many bars, one restaurant, you can go down to the beach by elevator, there are usually no places on the beach, there is a beach bar. The reef is small.
In the evenings there is a show program, a mini disco for children, there is a children's club.
The restaurant is small, there are a lot of people, the food is monotonous, well, so-so.
The rooms are old, but large, and the furniture is shabby. We lived on the 4th floor, without a balcony, the windows are small and narrow. The shower sucks.
Not far from the old town, you can walk.
We went to the albatross aquapark for the show program, there we were very tasty fed during the show. The show itself is a complete delight.
We had a rest at the end of March. The first 3 days were a little cool, then warmer every day, the water is clear, emerald, with colorful fish. The beach, there is a sandy entrance to the sea, and coral, is good for children. The food seems to be everything, since they are not whimsical, but the meat was not enough, then they got used to it. The hotel grounds are clean, green, and very cozy. We liked the elevator to the sea, it worked regularly, without interruptions. The room was overlooking the pool, with a balcony, I liked it. They cleaned it every day, toothpaste with a brush, we never saw it, we took our own well. We did not wait for a change of bed linen, having lived 10 days. But mostly the impressions were pleasant, there is still a division to come here.
Albatross Charm 05.07-15.07 2024
Flight RedSea Airline. The flight from Sheremetyevo took off on time. A big plus is that it's nocturnal. A glass of water and two small rolls were offered on board. Tea-coffee and bottled water for a fee. The plane has no special amenities. There is no way to choose places. Upon arrival, they quickly passed the control (you need to fill out a migration card). If you travel outside of Sharma (to Giza, for example), you need a visa. We got our luggage very quickly and headed for the buses. At the airport, you can buy a local SIM for communication. On average, $ 10 per 35GB. It works for 30 days, and then you need to register. The transfer to the hotel took about 20 minutes.
Return flight by Almasria. Luggage 10 kg + hand luggage (not weighed). They close their eyes to a preponderance of 1-2 kg. It's also nocturnal. There was a delay of four hours, but they warned me the day before, so I could stay at the hotel in peace. They arrived at the airport in three hours. We quickly passed the registration
Hotel
The hotel price includes the Neverland show. The guide may forget to tell you. They take you to a nearby hotel in the evening. You need to go to the reception the day before and make an appointment. The show is great. First they sing, then aerial acrobats, a light show and much more. It's all held on a large square during dinner - the waiters bring food and drinks. Everything is included in the price of the tour. From 20 to 22 shows. Then there is a disco, but you can walk to your hotel (20 minutes).
We arrived at the hotel at about 9 am. The bus stops in front of the hotel entrance (there is no check-in). At the reception (they speak Russian well), they registered and put on bracelets. You can go straight to breakfast and use the bar, pool, beach. They promised to check in at 14:00. After breakfast, we were informed that it was possible to check in. They showed the room (GARDEN VIEW) - in fact, a small room with two beds pushed together with a small window on the courtyard with staff equipment. After asking to change the room, we were shown another one. On the fourth floor with a balcony and a view of the pool and the sea. They offered another one - a bungalow. But the location is not very without any kind. For $ 20, we were put in a room with a balcony. We offered 20 ourselves, as you agree. They gave me one card to enter the room and two cards to get beach towels (a $10 fine for losing the card). The room stock is old. Furniture from the moment the hotel was built. But very clean. The room cleaning is decent. There are five towels in the bathroom for two (two large, two small and one under the feet at the exit from the shower). The showers in different rooms are different - there may be a separate one with a glass door, Or there may be a corner with a small side separated by a curtain. The room has a large bed, bedside tables, wardrobe, safe, refrigerator, TV (there are several Russian-language channels), a couple of tables. There is a table with chairs and a clothes dryer on the balcony. The territory of the hotel is very clean, palm trees, bushes, and grass are constantly being cared for. There are two swimming pools (for children and adults). But there's nothing to do there. Simple round pools. The adult is 130 cm deep. Daily activities are carried out on it (water polo, aqua aerobics, etc.). But the animation is weak. There is a bar with drinks and ice cream by the pool. The children's pool is always without people.
There are three bars on site (one in the large hall and two on the street). Alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks are offered. There is a cocktail list, but bartenders do not know how to make cocktails. Even looking at the composition, they can pour anything. Two restaurants are located one behind the other with a beautiful view of the bay. Breakfast is standard - omelette, scrambled eggs, greens, cereals, cereals, tea/coffee, fruits, etc. For lunch there are two types of soups and many second courses. There is always meat, chicken/turkey, and fish. For dinner, they put a barbecue in front of the main restaurant and cook something new every evening - cutlets, grilled chicken, shrimp, fish, shawarma. There is a bar on the territory of the restaurants. Wine, cocktails, spirits, juices, soda.
At 20:30, the children's disco begins at the big screen. At 21:00 there is an evening show with invited guests. Indian dances, fakirs, light show, etc. But the technical component leaves much to be desired (sound, light, screen are poorly configured). At 23:00, everything goes quiet.
The hotel is within walking distance from the Old Town (Old Market) with a beautiful mosque and a square. You can go down to the beach and walk along the beach line. It takes longer to walk through the city. Merchants are annoying. But you can ignore it and just walk around. You can download the InDrive app (registration via a local SIM card), order a taxi to the hotel and go in the evening (at 8 o'clock) to the walking street of Soho. It will cost about 200 pounds (400 rubles). When a taxi arrives at the hotel, the guard writes down the number of the taxi and specifies where you are going. Soho has a lot of shops with clothes, souvenirs, cafes, everything glows, a dancing fountain every hour.
It is necessary to hand over the room before the 12th day. The extension is paid. Before 15:00 - $ 60, before 18:00 - $ 80. After 18 - the full cost per day. But there is no point in prolonging it. Suitcases are left at the reception, and something valuable (a backpack with a laptop) can be put in a separate room. Before leaving the hotel, you can safely enjoy all the benefits, and before leaving, the administrator gives you a room for showering and changing clothes.
Beach.
Since the hotel is located at the top, you have to go down to the beach. You can go up the stairs (it lights up beautifully in the evening) or by elevator. The elevator is open until 18:30. The beach is clean and there are a lot of sunbeds. They are constantly being wiped and garbage is being removed. There are umbrellas and awnings. The beach is sandy with a good approach. There are several reefs that have many different fish. But there are also moray eels. If you don't anger them, don't climb into their hole, then they don't touch. Rescuers are constantly making sure that they do not swim behind the buoys. There is a bar on the beach, where pasta, pizza, and meat are cooked during lunch. There is a stage in the form of a ship, where there is activity (foam party, disco). There is a volleyball area. There are several kiosks on the beach with masks, fins, corals and perfume.
Excursions
There is no point in taking a quad bike tour. 30 dollars, but all quadric are "killed" and constantly go deaf. There is no organization. The excursion on the Black Pearl is interesting. Going to sea, scuba diving, snorkeling, delicious chic lunch.
A magnificent beach, a well-groomed large territory where you can always find a free place. The descent to the beach can be done by elevator or stairs...It's very beautiful from above
We rested at the hotel from 29.09-07.10.2023 room 1612 in the main building on the third floor. A hotel of its own price category. The rooms are very tired, furniture, plumbing, but everything is working, the mattress is comfortable, the bed is white. There is an opportunity to change the room for $ 20.
Food without frills, 1 time a week there were shrimp, every other day there were squid, beef, chicken, tilapia fish every day, fresh vegetables, stewed, pasta, potatoes, did not like the assortment of fruits, melon tasteless and the choice is not great, dates always, persimmon was 2 times, figs 3 times, and mostly sliced apples and bananas (whole), but there is an opportunity to buy mango almost opposite the hotel ($ 1 per kg). Animation is weak, there is a mini disco. There are few children in the hotel, mostly all Russian-speaking and 50+. Once a week they take you to a nearby hotel for the show Neverland (show + dinner with drinks) for free for hotel guests. The beach is very large, there is sand for children perfectly, there is an opportunity to go to the "wild beach" to the left of the main one, the sea world is more diverse there, although there are fish on the main beach. In general, the hotel of its price category, I may come back, solid 4. The staff constantly washes everything, even the street tiles with a mop. There were no problems with digestion and this is already good, everything is fresh and delicious, especially croissants! I wish the hotel to be updated and develop further, the location is very convenient! The old town is within walking distance (via the beach), but it's scary to come back at night without male support.
After reading the rave reviews and not noticing the negative ones, we took a ticket to this hotel. But what a disappointment it was when we arrived there. They brought us at night and at this place the good mood disappears. We were allocated, as they said, some of the best rooms that were available at the moment (photo attached). In the morning I complained about dirt and dust in the room, they promised to do a general cleaning, but this cleaning consisted in washing the refrigerator. No one touched the walls or the switches.
Of the disadvantages of the hotel:
- old furniture and appliances. It was unpleasant to put things in such a closet, the refrigerator was constantly rattling (I had to turn it off), but it was scary to turn on the air conditioner.
- the choice of food in the dining room is meager, most of the dishes presented are completely inedible. The enthusiastic reviews regarding the menu at the hotel are surprising...these people didn't eat anything sweeter than carrots, did they?!
- we had to occupy sun beds until 8 o'clock in the morning, because after that all the places were occupied, because in addition to our hotel, people were brought from two more.
Positive:
- the hotel is located in a beautiful location;
- convenient descent into the water;
- clean territory;
- pleasant staff;
- within walking distance of the old town with shops and a very beautiful mosque.
In general, by day 6 you stop noticing the cons of the hotel, start looking for the pros and try to enjoy what you have. Would I come to this hotel again? No!!! If only after work is done on the shortcomings in it (I think we will have to wait a long time).
Nice quiet hotel for family holidays.
A sandy beach with a small number of stones.
Be careful with the children, because there is depth almost immediately.
There are a couple of carcasses of carals where you can look at fish, and there are a great many of them in all of Egypt.
The food is nothing special, if you are not picky, you can eat normally, little fruit, packaged juices, good coffee. The service is standard for the average level. The staff is different. Someone is friendly and responsive, and someone is on the negative side, they can snap and stare. The animation is unobtrusive. The beach is good, the entrance to the water is gentle from the shore. Rooms for 3, especially plumbing. Old and flimsy. It breaks down. The master can walk for a long time. WiFi is weak. The location of the hotel is very good. The bay
is not windy, there is an elevator going down to the beach.
It's magical. There are no intrusive contests and other nonsense. Sea, sun, beach. The staff is polite. They celebrate birthdays.The food is familiar to us, but you can also choose local dishes.
We were at the hotel at the end of January 2024 with my husband and daughter 2.6 years old. I chose this hotel because it was very important to me that it was clean in the first place, and of course the view from the hotel is divine, the sea, the mountains, the mosque in the old city. And the price also pleased 150,000 for 8 nights from Moscow. We were lucky with the weather, the wind was a couple of times in the evening and on the last day of departure, we swam and sunbathed. I'll say this about the hotel itself, it's simple, old, the food is modest, not for gourmets, but the food has always been replenished, you won't stay hungry, and most importantly, everywhere is clean, very clean! They wash everything, disinfect it all day, well done. I was worried that the child would not catch some kind of infection. They didn't catch it, not the child, not us, everything is fine! The territory is not large, but very green, well maintained. But we were mostly on the territory only in the evening, after dinner, on animation for children and adults. The animation is mediocre, but it took place in a pleasant cafe, over a glass of wine) About alcohol, do you want delicious cocktails, there are none) The beer is good and the wine is three, the rest, be. In the morning we went to the sea, the beach for kids is very cool, you just need to either go to one or the other end, there is a good entrance
We were on vacation in November of this year.
I really liked the hotel. At first, I was confused by the fact that the beach was at the bottom and going down and up by elevator, where there is a constant queue, or 164 steps up the stairs, but then on the third day we got used to it. It's very good to shake up before lunch. The staff is trying very hard. The food assortment is not particularly large, but we did not stay hungry.
Nice hotel. Quiet and calm. The area is very clean. The staff tries their best in everything. The sea and the beach are magnificent, with an abundance of different fish. (if you take it to the left). There are two restaurants on site. The food is quite good and tasty if you don't find fault.There is enough of everything. If you give a dollar to the waiter and do not forget in the future, too, then he will bring drinks and book his favorite table every day and until the end of the vacation. There are two bars with drinks on the territory, the bartender Mukhamed pours decently (do not forget to leave a tip)
Well, well. It's time for a review.
After 9 years, we finally decided to take a vacation and fly on vacation. FOR the FIRST TIME, I was able to take my mom and send her on vacation. This vacation trip meant a lot to me.
We have been to this hotel 16 times! The last time was just 9 years ago in October. There was no choice of hotel at all. Mom said she wants to go there, so we're going there. I paid for 7 days of rest for three people 330.000₽.
Personally, I remember how 9 years ago, when I was 16, it was cool here! The key word was.
Let's start with the number of rooms. We chose a large room initially so that the young man and I could live in peace. Both rooms were paid for with a sea view! The result? He's funny!
We arrive, check in. They give out cards from number 12... (something there) NO WINDOWS! Are you serious?! For 330.000₽?!
My man goes back and explains that we will not live in such a room. OK! They give out cards with a normal number. With a sea view. They ask us to sign papers stating that we have no claims and so on. They ask you to give them a "tea", to thank them. I'm sorry to thank you for what?) For what was already paid for? It's funny!
Okay. Next is the restaurant. The food was passable. Let me remind you, it was better earlier. The fish and pasta were asleep. Vegetables and fruits leave much to be desired. Wine is the cheapest of the five in plastic… Whiskey is burnt. 37 degrees is declared. In fact, a maximum of 7%.
I was pleased with the cola, the original. Thanks!
Animation - 4 Russian-speaking guys!
The kids are coming in! I was pleased with everything in their work, except for the duration of events for adults in the evening. There was a karaoke evening - 1 hour. For 60 people. Well, so-so. It upset me.
The sea is why you need to come here! The sea and the sea again!
Will we come here again? No.
Thank you for "allowing" me to remember the pleasant moments of 9 years ago, when my whole family flew here in a huge company.
A very good hotel, the entrance to the sea is excellent, the granddaughter dived in the water without leaving. The staff is friendly and helpful. The fish in the sea are interesting, the reef is half-dead, but active. If you go to the left of the beach, there is beauty there-both fish and corals. Food-you will not stay hungry, beef, chicken, quail, fish-the truth is of one kind, such as telapia. The beer is good, the coffee is also made normally. We are not particularly picky about food, everything was edible)). A very clean, seedy territory. The animation is cool-foam parties, aqua aerobics in the sea, a celebration of colors, live music in the evening, visiting artists. The old town is very close. We took an excursion - three bays, I really liked it, the guys on the yacht were great, the instructors worked perfectly. That's what I don't recommend, so it's hamam Aladdin, complete unsanitary conditions and inattention to the client, sucks in general. I have never seen such an outrage as in Aladdin. The third time in Charm, I liked this hotel the most, I recommend it!!!
We have been to Egypt more than once, by chance we got to Albatross Beach in the summer) and fell in love)) An amazing place! The hotel stands at a bird's-eye view, the view is stunning, over the bay and the old town! The hotel's restaurant is located on the highest point, completely glass. In the morning at breakfast, or at lunch, you can sit over a cup of coffee (or a meal) and enjoy combining eating and contemplating the beautiful view!!! The hotel itself consists of buildings and a territory that wraps around the bay, it is very convenient, the sea is visible from any point. The beach is located at the foot of the territory, you can go down by elevator (8 floors) or by bridge. In general, it is necessary to see, feel, and feel this atmosphere. I also want to mention the hotel staff: it probably depends on the "head", so I express my gratitude to the management and the owner of the hotel! The staff is very attentive, friendly, caring, friendly! A very nice, clean, cozy and friendly place. We went 2 times a year, let's go again!
A small compact hotel.Pleasantly surprised:-the hotel was on the "stop" during the visit, however, everything is free everywhere, there is an abundance of staff.The room is like everywhere else in Egypt (not happy, not upset).Old, everything works.For purely symbolic gratitude, they placed it where they liked it and quickly.Restaurant-impressed:1 was fed on arrival after closing without any problems, 2 you can take some food with you (the waiter will even bring a box),3 good coffee (boiled) and drinks at the bar, 4 you can wear shorts for dinner (although the dress code seems to exist).The food is without any special frills, fresh, delicious.
There are three bars on the top (not counting the restaurant).Terrace, pool bar, lobby bar-from 10.00 to 00 all drinks, including brewed coffee. +pool bar from 12.00 to 15.00 ice cream. Beach bar-from 10.00 beer, water (without serious alcoholic beverages).From 12.00 to 15.00 ice cream, pizza.
The pools are large, of course, too small (120cm).We swam after lunch in a small one (it is deep and the water is not chlorinated)The staff is 100% friendly, all problems are solved quickly.Do not forget about gratitude (a small dollar is better than a big thank you) and you will not have any problems with cleaning the room or with the speed of service.The beach-there is a paddling pool for children, there is a place for those who just like to swim, there are places with reefs -to swim in a mask.
Animation is frankly weak, the guys didn't bother themselves with ingenuity, it's the same thing every day.There is a volleyball court-but there is not a single torn ball.You can kill a person with a ball in the pool.There is a great mini-football field with lighting, but there is no ball and, I'm sure, few people know about the existence of this field.
Since animation was not taken into account, I liked everything very much.
We had a rest with friends.
The hotel is ideal for a quiet family holiday.
The hotel is very old and needs major repairs for a long time. It's time to change everything in the rooms.
The food is not delicious, it's the same every day. The snack bar on the beach is quite poor. And very, very greedy employees at the distribution))
On the beach, sun beds need to be occupied early in the morning, from 10.00 to 14.00 it is difficult to find free ones.
Only the sea and a small reef are excellent. Gardeners try to take care of the plants on the premises. Room cleaning is of high quality.
A wonderful hotel, a beautiful place, the first line, I'm not staying for the first time, a varied menu, you can walk in the evenings, close to shops and the Old Town, I recommend visiting the hotel and enjoying the beautiful view from the beach.
Good afternoon! I want to write a review about this hotel! To warn people not to be led to the Albatros grid. We returned yesterday and today was the first night out of 9 when we slept in silence. The rooms are dead, the air conditioning is old and very very noisy, so not only that, it also sparkled after 3-4 hours of operation, and so in many rooms the equipment is very old. But the highlight on the cake is the huge cockroaches in the room (of course they were poisoned and said that they accidentally got into the room through the sewer, but the fact is they are very big and unpleasant. There is no food, but you can say the usual. The bartenders are excellent, they don't extort, they pour and smile. The sea is warm, you have to go to the pipes on the reef, it's to the left when you get out of the elevator. I read the reviews they write that the sea covers all the shortcomings of the hotel, to be honest, there are no giant cockroaches and noisy condos at night it is not possible to block, a dead and old hotel. Recommended for a one-time trip there, we will definitely not return.
We were in December 2023. For the third time in this hotel, Attentive staff and professional managers.
1. The rooms are old, but clean and everything is in working order, most importantly comfortable beds, new mattresses, good pillows and blankets. Unfortunately, there are rooms without balconies, but if there are free bungalows, they can move into them. The bungalow has good Wi-Fi.
2. Excellent clean beach, entrance without pontoon, sand, lots of places, there is an elevator to the beach, always working, convenient for the elderly and if you are with young children. The water is warmer than in the open sea, as the beach is in a lagoon. For reef lovers, there is a great reef at the end of the beach, better than on boat trips.
3. There is a heated swimming pool, usually it does not happen at 4 *.
4. The food is excellent, everything is fresh. We definitely recommend it!!!
The food, the location of the hotel, the sea -everything is fine. They moved into an unsuccessful room on the 4th floor without an elevator, after altercations they were moved the next day. So the service and service in this hotel is on "4"
We rested from March 25th to April 1st, 2024. A small room in a bungalow, snow-white bed linen,3 towels in the bathroom, hairdryer, shampoo, cream, liquid soap, toilet. paper (replenished every day). Bottled drinking water, tea, coffee, sugar, were also replenished. The food is good (meat, chicken, fish), fruits (guava, grapefruit, tangerines, oranges, apples), delicious pastries, coffee, wine and stronger alcohol, mango juice, guava, you can go down to the sea by elevator or stairs, the sea is clean, a lot of fish, a lot of sun beds, umbrellas, towels on the card, toilet on the beach, shower, beer, juices, carbonated drinks, tea, coffee, ice cream (after lunch). Animators (foam party, aqua aerobics, exercise). There are always rescuers on duty. Breakfast, lunch, late lunch, dinner, late dinner, on the day of arrival, we were at the hotels at 14:00, we offered lunch, on the day of departure, you can also have lunch, the bracelet is not cut off. The territory of the hotel is well-groomed (washed in the morning, swept) clean, lots of flowers. Have a good rest, everyone.
Very nice hotel! I liked everything very much, the kitchen, the service, walking distance to the old town, going to the sea is probably the best in Sharm el Sheikh, corals are not needed, going down to the beach by elevator.
My favorite hotel. A stunning beach, there is a sandy entry into the water for kids and a wild beach with a beautiful reef (just take special shoes). The food is very tasty, the staff speaks Russian and, in general, always went to the meeting. They gave us a great room with a view of the pool, although the standard was written on the voucher.
😄😀😀
As for the rooms, I would advise you to make repairs in the bathroom. But we didn't come to sit in the room, so everything was fine.
A windless bay and a 10-minute walk to the old town. Fine.
We were at the Neverland show at another Albatross hotel, we were delighted. That hotel, of course, is more luxurious, but still the most important thing for us is our beach. I highly recommend the show itself.
The hotel also has its own diving club, through which we went to the White Island on a yacht. I liked everything. Both diving and the organization itself. Everything is safe and clear.
I think we'll come back again. I would really like to, anyway.
A very nice hotel.. cozy rooms, polite staff) Delicious food, and funny foals from animation) sorry, the vacation is over.But we will definitely turn around
A hotel for couples and companies. Not really for children, there is no water park and slides, a playground in the sun, just about nothing, the pool is one for everyone, small but clean. Next to it is very small for kids. Great animation and a foam party once a week. The food is not very varied, but everything is delicious. And meat and vegetables and pastries. Very beautiful sea view, elevator descent. In the evening, everything is on fire. We had a room for two (with a child) with a bedroom and a living room with a TV and two sofas. Without a balcony. Be sure to take a walk to the old town, look at the fountains and waterfalls. The air conditioners in almost all rooms are quite noisy and antediluvian. The beach is good, there are stone steps for descending into the water. In general, it's not bad, there is a water park in Albatross Aqua, it's across the street and strangers are allowed there for $.
I have been to this hotel three times already: 2021, 2022 and 2023. I really like the staff, the food, the view of the Old Town and the area itself, and most importantly - the gorgeous sea!!! A long comfortable beach, sandy bottom, fish, corals, water entertainment and gorgeous animation (it was in 2023 that animation became really good thanks to the Mondi team!) I'm already a VIP guest, so they filled my mini-bar, brought a plate of fruit to the room, carried baklava and other goodies. Very pleasant. I love this hotel!
We had a rest in December, we really liked everything, the location of the hotel is excellent, the sea is warm, the food is excellent, the staff is all polite, we will come again.
Great location. The beach is clean, the service is excellent, the staff is generally the best thing about the hotel. Above all praise , I recommend it to everyone
The hotel, I would say, is comfortable, everything is nearby, the restaurant, the beach by elevator
until 19-30 or you can walk up the stairs. A fitness room with a view of the bay. Beautiful views,
Food: for 3. Service 4. With tips for 4. With good tips 5. Beach:5. Room: 3 (the air conditioner worked fine, but on the 7th day it began to spit water and drip). Location:5. Territory: 4.
Honest travel agent review. We have been vacationing privately since 07.12.2024. The choice of rooms for check-in is only available for an
additional fee. The rooms are in need of repair, the shower is on tape, the door is falling apart. Thanks to the maintenance staff, hard workers. Everything is fine in the restaurant, the food is delicious, the main thing about breakfast is that you can cook scrambled eggs in advance and not create a crowd of vacationers. Animation is sluggish. The area is clean, beautiful, the beach, the views of the bay are fantastic
Good 4, a little tired room, but thanks to the location the hotel is gorgeous, who needs the sea is here, the beach has a sandy entrance and coral, we have seen enough beautiful fish. The view from the shore of the hotel is very beautiful, it is located in the bay, the sunsets are incredible. Rooms are better to take bungalows. The food is monotonous, there are some shows every day in the evening, animators also entertain during the day on the beach. You can walk to the Old Town, where there are shops and a beautiful Mosque.
I liked the hotel, the food is quite decent, the beach is sandy. Go down and up to the beach by elevator. Among the disadvantages - there was no evening disco, the furniture in the rooms was old, there was a curtain in the shower. The animation ends at 22:00, then there is nothing to do. And yet, the bartenders at the bar are not very kind, to put it mildly)
