After booking are holiday 2 Dreams Beach we looked on trip advisor to find negative comments about the food, animation team and location. We found non of this 2 be true it was like they were writing about a different hotel. Six of us traveled aged 18-20 and we had a brilliant relaxing break away.

The staff are fantastic they cant do enough for you as soon as you have got an inch left in your drink a new one is brought and same with you plates as soon as you have finished your meal your plates are cleared. The animation team are fun, friendly and caring. They put on activites though out the day for example: yoga stretches, water aerobics and beach volly ball and football. Even though we did not have any small children with us we couldnot help but take notic of how good the kids club was. Every night the animation team put on entertainment....shows...quiz night...beach parties...karaoke and discos.

There were lots of negatice comments about the food so when we went for a first meal we did not know what 2 expect. We pleased to find the food fantactic ...fresh breads....soups...salads....pasta dished made to your liking right in frount of you...and a vast selection of desserts...the meals each night were different theams for example: Mexican, Italian, oriental ect. The childern had thee own area where the food would be more to there liking.

It was a member of are parties birthday while we were way so we booked into the alacart Italian restaraunt. The meal was lovely and all the waiters came out singing with a birthday cake. The night after we booked into the fish alacart restaraunt which was also at a great standerd with entertainment while you ate.

The hotel is beautiful all the grounds are well maintained everthing very clean. The main swimming pool is very large it is not as warm as the indoor pool but when its 36 degrees the pool is very refreshing.

There is two beached to chose from and you get acsess to the beautiful sea and corals from the jetty. You can borrow masks and snorkles form Mohamed for a small tip (the on sight shop was wanting £75 for 2 sets of masks and snorkels). The staff on the jetty are so help full one morning they took 16 of us 10 minutes on there speed boat to another coral free of charge as they wanted 2 show us the most beautiful corals.

one afternoon we took a quad bike trip into the dessert this is not 2 be missed. We all set out late afternoon and took a three hour adventure stopping off at a traditional Egyption small village where we drunk tea and watched the fantastic sun set. If we would had been there for two weeks we would had done that trip again.

The weather was fantastic for a full week we did not see one cloud the hottest day was 36 degrees not bad for march. I no that everybody in are party would go back 2 this resort we were made so welcome and had a unforgettable holiday.

We did not read the reviews of the hotel before going, so the only thing I can say is that some of the comments are fair, but some others... we just didn´t experience them.
We went there with friends with their baby and we were wonderfully treated by the staff. One of the things we are surprised the most is their kindness and thier service. It is true they come with lot´s of offers but after you say no, then they do not come again.
I read some negative reviews related to the food, however we were delighted, we even ate salads! everyday was different kind of food (Oriental, Swiss, etc) with lots of vegetables (cooked and raw). My favourite day was the oriental dinner. Besides, they cooked a lot of Italian style stuff everyday withan a-la-carte service of pasta(I guess due to the big amount of italians in the hotel).
The only thing is not commented is the diving center and I guess they deserve a comment because we had a wonderful time with all the dives they organized; and we saw turtles, dugong and beautiful coral reefs; everyday in a different location with a short bus drive and with experienced italian instructors who helped us to get the most of this great holidays.

Having had the flu over Christmas we booked this holiday at the last moment (6 days before) having been to Egypt twice before we had no worries at all and packed to go and relax.
The rooms although large are tierd and the bathrooms are to be honest dirty.
The beach, grounds, and pool areas are all very nice and so are the staff no problems there.
The PROBLEM is the food it is with out a doubt the very worst we have ever had we were there at the same time as the reports from Hampshire and Blackburn we agree with every thing they said, they were the lucky ones we were ther for another week and then it really did get bad, we complained so many times about the food and warned them how dangerous it was.
On our last night my husband was ill again, we had both had tummy trouble in the first week but this was really bad, he was so sick all night that i took him to the doctors in the morning and he was put straight on to a drip and given antibiotic, something to stop him being sick and something to stop the dreadful stomach cramps, after an hour and a half and £175 !!!!!!! we went back to our room to pack and get ready to go home, the doctor had said he would be fine to fly.
On boarding the plane he started to have cramps again and within an hour he was being sick, he was ill for the entire 6 hour flight and the Captain had to radio ahead to Gatwick to get us met at the plane by Ambulance where he was taken off and straight to hospital, he stayed in for the night and had 5 bags of fluid,anti sickness injection,something to stop the cramps and Pethedine for the pain, he also had blood tests and his blood presure was high,dehydration can cause heart attack as well as kidney and liver problems and much more.
So many people were ill when we were there and i can only hope that people think VERY carefully before going to this Hotel.

Having read the various mixed reports about this destination I did not know what to think or what we were going to find.

The Hotel was chosen by friends who in the end could not make it due to ongoing ill health so it was a done deal for the wife and I

All I can say is what a lovely resort very friendly very clean most attentive and all the good bits from the other reports.
Having travelled around usually independantly we went with a tour operator on an all inclusive deal so we were a bit worried about food etc
No problems Breakfast Fab, eggs any way you want them cooked fresh by your own Chef lots of bits to go with them plus Pastries to die for etc
Lunch either at the pool bar or back in the restaurant
Pool bar limited to Pizza Potatoes and Pasta Salad and Crepes and maybe a little chicken or beef dish
main restaurent the full monty various combinations of dishes salades plus a chef to cook you pasta and you pick your own ingredients.
Afternoon tea by the pool or beach cake rolls etc as we needed something to soak up the Brandy and coke and GTs then its time for Dinner and again you have a large selection from various fish dishes to beef checken etc followed by devine sweets , crepes suzette or banana flambed in brandy by the sweet chef
But remember it is Buffet style so dont expect top class restaurent style food although having said that we did have included in our deal a meal in the italian restaurent which was to a very high standard.
We also had a night in the fish restaurent ( set on the beach that is like a ARK that has washed up)This was the only extra we had and at 20Euros a head to include fabulous fish and wine from start to finish plus live entertanment it was a bargain.
For a week in the sun I just dont think it can be beat no problems with getting drinks etc. and clean beach towels everyday
Oh did I mention the free trips by road and boat to go snorkling at various bays where the coral and the fish were amazing.
Photos to follow I hope
P.S. Tip the guys who serve you a little once every day (we took US Dollar bills i.e. .50p) it keeps their attention plus they deserve it they work very hard
What more can I say we had a very enjoyable time and what started out with trepidation turned into a sad to leave situation

would we go back ?

Yep, tommorrow given the chance it was great. even the animation team didnt get on my nerves ,well not to much.
