Luxor e Cairo The Beach Resort

Spent 10 days with my husband and two teenage girls in mid August. The Hotel is in a brilliant location for restaurants bars and several convenience stores, The hotel is simply furnished but spotless and although close to everything amazingly quiet. The staff could not do enough for us, the reception staff and those who served breakfast were fantastic and nothing was too much trouble for them. Breakfast was well stocked with everything you would want, tons of fresh fruit, a hot station serving eggs etc and plenty of pastries along with the usual hams, cheeses and much more. You are allocated beach beds which means no getting up early to get your place. There are beds also around the very nice pool area that you have to pay extra for though we didn't need to do this because things were beginning to quieten down. The beach was lovely and clean with soft sand and shallow warm waters making it ideal for little ones. Because of the close proximity to the hotel it makes it convenient to slip back for something you have forgotten or indeed for a spot of lunch or cocktail if you fancy it. Getting to venice is easy. you can buy tickets just around the corner and take the bus and boat. Children pay in Italy over the age of 4 as an adult bear this in mind its about 20 euros each for a day pass but well worth the price. We also went to aqualandia, the largest water park in Italy, this is only a 15 minute walk from the hotel and had a great day.

One Saturday the owner (I think) held a private party for his daughter and her friends. Whilst this is great for her, I think it was very rude for the hotel guests and very unpleasant at times. The pool area was overtaken by all the children - for a long time and we felt like we were intruding. We paid for this day and private parties should be held elsewhere. It was very selfish with no thought for the guests. I wish these comments to be passed to the owners. I felt very uncomfortable.
