Hotel Fantazia has everything you need for perfect relaxed vacation. Choose one of the deluxe rooms as it´s new, spacious, modern and it has its own dining area. In deluxe part of the hotel there´s also heated whirpool with view of the ocean. Food was also great! Will deffinetly come back.

So basically I was here with my family and we wanted to see some animations. They we quite rude for us because we are not Italian so they kicked us out from the animation therater. The international animation team only do everything for adults and not for kids. Also we are not allowed to be with the Italians but we sometimes want to so we can become friends. Someone asked my daughter if they are part of the mini club but she said no and it was a 5 year old. She was very kind but bravo did not let us be with each other. I also want to talk about the pools. Nearby the bar loads of people smoke and loads of children are around and the pool water is dirty with fruit at the bottom of the pool and dirt with sand. This is nearly a 5 star hotel and it’s too dirty. While I was in Spain a 3 star hotel the pool was a bit dirty but this one is way worse. It’s like this hotel never cleans it but cleans the water. Also the final thing I want to talk about is the food. They should add more vegan food (without meat) because I am vegan and I can only eat pasta. The only thing I liked is the man down nearby the sea in the bar. He is very kind and funny. He makes tasty drinks and they look good. I mean the ones with no alcahol and with alcahol. I also have a review for the rooms . Once in the morning the was a leak from the ceiling. There was water everywhere in the room…

We stayed here for one week snd we were sad we disn’t book our stay for longer. Hotel is amazing, delicious food and staff is doing everything to make you feel comfortable. What we enjoyed the most was the animation programe. We went stretching, had fun at Miss hotel and evening disco. Am legend world of entertainment did everything to entertain us! ☺️ Thank you so much, we had so much fun and hooe we’ll come back one day.

we stayed in this hotel for 8 days. first impressions were good. the disadvantage is that it is about 2 hours by transfer from the airport. the beach is nice and there is a lot of underwater life, but if you are used to a beautiful sandy beach, don't expect much. it is worth paying extra for a deluxe room, you also have a deluxe pool and a restaurant for lunch and breakfast where only deluxe guests and people over 16 can go. the people from the hotel who offer trips and spa on the beach and in the hotel are a bit annoying. we were surprised that when we wanted to buy extra bottled water, we had to pay €2 for it. the food keeps repeating, there is not much to choose from. if you like Italian cuisine, you will be satisfied, but it will get on your nerves later, as the main guests are Italians. it seemed to me that they treated the Italian guests differently than, for example, us from Slovakia. the deluxe rooms are nice and clean, for an extra fee of €2, for example, the cleaner will make you a swan out of towels with flowers, which is still a pleasant surprise.…

1st of all when ordering rooms we were in deluxe one. on hotel site you see this https://ctrlv.sk/YcZQ ... so you automatically assume you have jacuzzi in room.... this is misleading the consumer. In deluxe room there are no jacuzzi in rooms... you have one outside shared with everyone. It was said, at hotel, that Deluxe area is only for deluxe clients and no kids under 16 are allowed there.... I saw not once about 5yo kid there. not to mention that everyone was there, not just deluxe clients since noone was checking bracelets. sow plenty of normal clients in that area. Everything in this hotel is in italian... every activity everything that happens - italian... so not italian speaker can not even participate. that is connected with owner being italian and positive segregation of italians is really feelable. Now, deluxe area is good... at evenings there is really loud music going from italian anfitheather right next to it... that is right... amfitheather only for italians... and you are not allowed to have dinner at your area.... cause dinner there is a-la carte.... even tho its absolutely same food that is in the main area as part of all inclusive, just brought 500m further. and you for some reason have to pay for that again, even tho you already payed for that once..... When you are deluxe area everything is fine, once you have to leave it and go to main area its really bad experiance. Employes are grumpy, probably understaffed, they make you have dinner in small dining hall, even tho they have space and tables around, they just wont let you go there. you have to keep wáting for table, cause when they are preparing table they do it only till someone occupy there. once you sit down, they wont give you cutlery, or glasses and so on, since its already occupied and they hurry to empty table. but food is good. lobby bar.... oh my..... once we were sitting as a group at lobby and took order from a waiter. he was not comming for several minutes, so we stopped another and ordered again. than theyve met at our table, and there was problem. they even called a barman from lobby and he didnt even explained what was the problem, he simply started yelling at us in arabic..... we are still not even sure what the problem was since we already payed for that and If this would not happen I would not believe, that this can happen in 5star hotel. ... but after this event they refused to take our orders at lobby even tho we already payed for it. next day after this we were at fakir show and after it we went to lobby. I somehow managed to get a drink from this barman... unbelievable... and since he was using only about 1,5 max 2deciliter glasses I simply finished it out of thirst right before him.... he started yelling at me again and I really have no idea why till this day. Whole day construction noises since they were building new part of hotel. . If they rework how it works at dining hall and solve problems with staff yelling at you for no obvious reason and refusing to give you stuff you already payed for, not to mention that hotel would not be misleading customers, it probably would be a good holliday. but with all of this I do not think I will be comming back again.…

i start with that what is amazing: red sea and sun! animals living there and sweaming with them is amazing! what is good : fantazja resost place has a good gardens, a lot of greens, grass and trees are very beautifull, everyday crew takeing care about that. Pools also are very good. whats bad : food and staff. Every day same food, mostly beef some fishes some old food from day before. After few days we stoped eating breakefasts sometimes dinners. Personel in general is bad! I wrote in general because they are not nice, you can feel bad treating, you must pay not a dolar, 5 - 10 dolars if you want to get somithing nicer. Alcohol poor iven if you tip a lot they try to do something good but quality isnt good. At least we drank prosseco for 50e botte or egipcian wine for 27e per bottle. Even if you pay they treating you is faked. Some of personel are really nice but we meet just few of them. Ahmed and ahmed on the bar near the pool - great guys! tip them! they are nice. Even if you not tip them they good guys who likes them job.…

We were in the Deluxe section. The rooms are beautiful, although the shower flowed and the door from the shower could not be completely closed, but overall we have a great impression of the beautiful terrace, quiet and private, which was in this part. And all this thanks to the great staff at the deluxe pool and restaurant, as well as on the beach. Many thanks to the employees of Khaled Yousef, Yossef Ahmed, Hosny Ibrahim Alhadad, Camelman, chefs and others who have improved our holiday with their eternally good mood, advice and have become our friends. The food was great in all the restaurants, the beach a short distance and still free sunbeds.

I visited this hotel for the first time and thanks to Bebsyi😘 I had the best vacation so far, my favorite was Aquagim and volleyball. Whenever I was in a bad mood, Bebsyi improved it for me, it is the best animator under the sun. Viki-katastrofa😉😜😋
