Wifi is only available in the public spaces/reception, very slow connection. Possible to buy a simcard from the guides, $15 for 30Gb. Would also advise to buy an esim/sim card before arriving to the hotel.
Room 202: Nice and spacious room with king sized bed. Located down from the main restaurant and has a bit of a view to the sea. The bed is a bit hard. It does get pretty loud in the evening because of the loud music/activities in the main area/bar close to the room. There is a mini fridge, a kettle, small TV, closet and a spacious bathroom. Although it says that if the towels are hanging they will not be changed, the towels were changed anyway as long as they are not on the same spot as they are placed by the roomservice. The window in the bathroom/shower has the shop on the other side of it, everything that's being said inside and outside is heard really well. There is a bit of poor air ventilation in the bathroom which results in some mold spots on shower walls. Water is not drinkable, drinking water bottels are provided in the room. Safebox is not attached to the wall/closet, just a freestanding box in the closet.
Lebanese restaurant on the premises that has to be booked one day in advance, open Saturday/Monday/Wednesday.
Tipping is expected: ok with 100 Egyptian pounds, 200 is nice. Recommended to tip twice during the one week stay.
Hotel is located a bit far from the city/activities. Recommended places to visit by the guide:
Soho square best time to go kl.19-20 (taxi 30 min 500 EGP one way) or hotels taxi service 25$ back and forth.
Old market 15$ back and forth with hotels taxi service.
Would NOT recommend the boat ride to the white island/snorkeling in the park. The hotel has way better and stress-free snorkeling with its private two beaches.
Few improvement wishes: Would be nice if the buffet had a schedule/overview of the food themes. F.ex. Tuesdays are "traditional/oriental" food, Friday is seafood, etc. Also if all the food had labels/names and what are the ingredients. It would be nice with more fresh juice options than just orange (€2 per glass for breakfast).
The music/loud activities in the evening are a bit too loud for the rooms close to that area.

Rooms were very average. But clean.
Food was OK and plenty of it
The only thing that let it down was the drinks. All spirits were undrinkable no named brands. So beer was all that you could have aswell as coke/ sprite /orange

I enjoyed my stay very much, the tipping culture and "market" inside the resort I could have been without. The coral reef accessed from the resort is amazing.

I came across this hotel by accident and was wildly delighted with it. The hotel is located in a very beautiful place near the sea and overlooks the gorgeous caral reef.

One of the best reefs at a hotel in the area. Most of the time the staff does as if they understand but they dont. There was a problem with getting baby beds for the first days. They simply ignored our request to fix it. Third night we got the sleep we deserved. There was a pretty moody waiter...
