Review of Marina Lodge Hotel à Port Ghal...

We have been here twice, because it is very quiet there, almost no children, Russians.
The bar is closed at 11 pm so no really drunk people, the hotel is around the pool, rooms are spacious, if a little more could have been refurbished everything is very old with little maintenance.
If you want seaview, there is no view at most, or you have to bring binoculars to see the sea.
The beach is not much for a wooden shack, where you can get something to drink with some unkempt beds and windshields, and if you follow the buoys there is a nice house reef, too bad it lies along the channel of the boats, but you snorkel by going to the right you can see a lot from rays to large turtles.
You can cross over by bus or boat to Port Ghalip, but you have not seen anything in 1x, for something else to see is nice to stroll around the shops and pick up a terrace.
All in all a very simple hotel with little maintenance, staff very friendly especially the animation team who with little try to maintain you every day.
The food is good and variable for the price you pay, you are used to hotels from Hurghada or Sharm this is less, but you have to poke through, that's all bling bling here is peace, tranquility and peace in the middle of the a sandbox.
