“Resort bellissimo e silenzioso (parte Adults Only)”
I stayed in room 2311, which has direct access to the semi‑private pool; if you choose this type, I recommend requesting that room (if available). It’s side‑located, very spacious, and lets you reach the bar easily by walking along the poolside. A perfect way to enjoy the breeze without staying all day on the beach. The trip to Marsa Mubarak, booked with Eliy for 70 €, was unforgettable: dolphins, turtles and even a dugong. Ask the reception for him. For cocktail lovers, I suggest the sea‑front bar with white ceiling curtains; they really make them well. About 15 minutes’ walk to the left looking at the sea is Marsa Nakari – Red Sea Diving Safari: a small cabin where you can access the coral reef in an excellent and convenient way. The entrance costs 11 €, but it’s worth it. Bring a towel and stay after the visit: showers and a bar (paid) are available.
On the dining side, there is room for improvement: the selection is limited and many dishes are repeated identically on different days. Check‑in was also not handled optimally; some essential information for the stay was not explained and we had to discover it ourselves. For those staying in the Adults Only area, know that everything is included, but with an important rule: you are given 4 vouchers to access the 4 à la carte restaurants of the resort (in addition to the Main Restaurant). The vouchers cover 4 dinners; if you want to return to the same restaurants, additional evenings are paid. During these dinners, extra menus are also offered for a fee, but they’re not worth it: the included menus are already very rich. This point should be explained clearly at check‑in, so I recommend asking for information right away. More attention should also be given to cocktails: in some bars they’re made too hastily (juice poured from the bottle and vodka added at the end), a level not in line with the resort’s quality. Some bartenders are more attentive, others decidedly less.
Reaching the coral reef in front of the resort is possible but challenging: you have to walk a bit and can only access it in the morning, because in the afternoon the low tide exposes the corals and you risk damaging them. With strong wind it becomes impossible to visit. The area before the reef still offers a nice underwater view. A regrettable episode involved a 45‑year‑old diving staff member with whom we had an unpleasant conversation on the beach. I understand the need to propose activities, as Eliy did impeccably and we were very satisfied, but it is unacceptable for the conversation to turn into personal, persistent, and irrelevant talk without mentioning the resort’s services.
