“the best holiday we had”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 January 2011

person found this review helpful

We were at this hotel in May / June, pens negligible storm and landing in Cairo and the lack of assistance from the oasis only to a small office VACO bis was staying was extra, the hotel itself consists of three buildings on the beach 4, super food, beverages and packaging , Polish, and the waiters know you can get great smaiło communicate with them, especially if they can work 14 hours a day is a dollar tip causes that do not have to fly after the drinks, and we have reserved tables at all times a full glass of August because the waiters know so recommend us to others and the whole stay turns into a pleasure without standing in line for drinks and get the wine from the bottle and not from the carton and beer with a gold tip and not the standard, the best drinks are always at the bar opposite the reception. waterslides disappointed us, but swimming pools, beach and pizza at the sea is a great thing, the stores can be a bargain, I recommend to scratch from the store with the words lidl, Christian and śweitny guy speaks Polish, and especially as the evening write to a pipe in the shop, small rooms with loud climate but still go back there at night and mostly in a good mood so it makes no sense to worry about them at the disposal of a few restaurants so easy to find something for yourself, I recommend the Italian and Chinese, you have to save but how is your waiter, it goes without a record and there until we uszte to the palate and swietne wino.z tour bought from Arabs Giftun Island is a great diving on the reef, przejzadzka quads in the desert but, God forbid, a jeep ride to the village of Bedouin kórej we have a few huts and baked a cake, a waste of time for something like that. the only drawback is lawn watering water, sewer odor, but this is africa and a liter of water costs as much as 3 liters of gasoline, if someone goes there to the lazy, drink, laugh to turn a blind eye operation and the shortcomings of this hotel is the most worthy of command, in my experience that if the hotel throughout the year there are more Italians, Russian (rude and vulgar wsioki), German or French cuisine that is subordinate to these hotels at them, as well as support, they only know the language and not count that will handle the same poles as the Germans or the Italians (the issue of tips), so you should choose the hotels where the majority of Poles, and then we have scrambled eggs for breakfast and quietly speaks to the waiter and tour operators. So as I read the reviews presumptuous Polaczków who went to the hotel, 5 *, and not giving tips May grievances that staff is looking at them as poor wsioki their opinions can be omitted because it falls between August crows etc but unfortunately nelezy foreign language, give bigger tips as germany and eat dishes from their kitchen and did not complain because we have chosen such a trip . This hotel is certainly not to those Poles and there are well treated and there is no question there, to feel like someone worse. I visited several hotels in Egypt and stay in this hotel was najlpeszych holiday we had.

“Relaxing with friendly staff, rooms could do with a refurb & clean linen”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 December 2010

person found this review helpful

My husband & I stayed at the Aqua Blu for 1 week at the end of November. We enjoyed our stay & had wonderful weather, the guest are 50/50 european & russian, staff are freindly & helpful with the exception of recption staff when you need something, We have stayed at a few hotels in Sharm on previous years & this was better than some, but there are a few points that need attention. The rooms were dated & the bed lining & blankets are stained & old, this also applies to the beach towels. The other annoying thing was the shortage of glasses & ice at the bar & resturants. This is good hotel for familys with children or for groups travelling together, not so great for couples or singles as lack of evening entertainment.

“Excellent Choice!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 November 2010

people found this review helpful

After much searching and deliberation I chose Aqu Blu for my first trip to Egypt. I travelled with my 6 year old Daughter only from London. we spent the October half term there. The Hotel in my opinion was fantastic. Excellent service, wonderful and friendly staff. We asked to change rooms and this was done the next day. No problem with the room just wanted one wtih a better pool view. The rooms and general cleanliness of the hotel and other facilities was excellent. The staff work really hard and worked long shifts. I would in particlular commend Ahmed Marwan on Reception, Haitham, Heba, and Mona at Horas Spa and all the staff in the main restaurant. The name of the Lady who helped with seating in the Restaurant escapes me. I would like to thank her for all her help and assistance, especially as I travelled without an adult companion.The Paradise Programme that Horas Spa offer is worth every penny. The facilites I found were better in their Spa in Aqua Vista Hotel. You can use the facilities of both Hotels as they are adjacent. My Daughter and I were independant Travellers. Please note that after making several enquiries there appeared to be no English Tour Representative in any of the nearby Pickalbatross Hotels that I could organise any excursions with. The Hotels predominately cater mainly for Germans and Russians in terms of the language interpretation, excursions, and the animation team. In the end we had to book a taxi service to take us to Cairo and Luxor. Also my Daughter went to the Kid's Club on site only once as none of the Children spoke English and you could only send them there for a morning or afternoon session. There was lots to occupy us so this wasn't a problem. Please also note that the Aqua Blu as I understand most of the Hotels do in the area, offer a laundry service; there is no iron or ironing board available. The food was varied and mostly hot, though tended to get cold if you went to the food stations inside and outside the restaurant to complete your meal. All said and done, we both had a fabulous time. We als went with Sky Aqua Center on a snorkling trip, going to 4 different Islands. I recommend Mohammed Dahab. We also bookd a Badawya Safari trip with Steven. Also well worth doing. I look forward to going to Hurghad again.

“Fantastic Holiday some people are just fussy!!!!”

We stayed here for ten nights all-inclusive my partner and myself with three children aged 11 12 & 26 my two daughters shared a room next door which was adjoining,We had no problems at all people are cleaning all the time,We had Breakfast in the Medditeranean restaurant they cooked eggs for you fried or omelette while you wait,Lunch in the bigger resaurant they make pizza fresh for you ! The good thing is you don't need to book like some hotels just decide on the night Curry very nice in the asian Restaurant, I am vegetarian and had no problem with the food pasta rice potatoes ,nice soups to and the sweets there was so much choice.The slides are great our room was over by a quiet pool so we easy got sun loungers then just wander over to the slides.The Beach is only minutes away get the shuttle bus first time then you will see how near it is so you can easy walk it.A nice stretch of shops is if you go out the back entrance of the Hotel turn left to the end of the road then right ,you can even have a camel ride here.
