The best holiday ever!

If your reading this then you are thinking about staying in the Concorde El Salam. All I can say is "GO FOR IT!" I have never seen anything like it and all of the staff, from the receptionist to the cleaners, bar staff and towel boys were fantastic!! The locals are the friendliest people I have ever met and made you feel so relaxed. They could not do enough for you. The food was great and there is always something to eat whenever you want it. The weather was in its 100's during the day, and never fell below 85 at night! Theres plenty of trips to go on, like snorkling and diving, quad biking in the desert and horse riding along the beach. All great value for money. My partner and I went 28th May to 3rd June 07 and I cant wait to go back again. I think the only thing that might put some people off, is that because it is so close to the airport, you can hear the planes taking off and landing every so many hours. Not a problem if you are a heavy sleeper, but this did get annoying once or twice. And the beach is without a doubt a man made one. Make sure you wear sandals or those stones may get you. Other than that, perfect!! oh, and if you do go on a trip, dont go looking for it or purchase with the reps, let the locals come and find you around the pool and talk you into it! There much cheaper and you get much more for your money!
