Wanted a chill out week after doing dive boat for a week from port ghalib. Worth the 2hour track down here as it’s great value for money with lovely snorkelling (regular turtle and small white tips) and extensive gardens, kept beautifully. Food ok with nice omelette and pasta bar (making up for an otherwise quite “same samey” array of food). Amazing room (1633), where I struck lucky with views of both sea and pool; kept immaculate and seemed to be a newer block. Enjoyed company of Khaled (a lifeguard here) on daily snorkelling outings….worth tagging along with him if you wanna see turtles (eg 5 on my first outing!!). Very quiet here this time of year which suited me well - no entertainment or nightlife to speak of, so I was glad of the one English Channel on tv (BBC) to keep up with news. I paid the extra (25euro) for WiFi everywhere on 2 devices. (15 euro for just one device per week). All round good pick of hotel- much cheaper than other one I’d considered (Lahmy Bay, which I just visited to snorkel Banana Reef there…. No better than here, so don’t bother paying the 20-30 euro day fee!!). No complaints here really…. Room great, nice quiet complex, friendly staff, great beach/snorkelling and solid (if unexciting) food in same restaurant every meal. All round solid choice for the price
