The 1st thing you notice on arrival is the quality of the hotel compared to many around Europe. The staff are the best i've ever met, and you're treated like royalty. The only other place that you'd get treated this way is on a cruise ship. The bar staff and waiters will remember your names and what you're drinking, and if they notice you're glass is near empty they'll come over with a new drink. The swimming pool was huge, lovely and cool to chill out in. They've got kids areas too and everything that a family would require. There are many bars and restaurants, including the Chez Pascal Al a carte. There's the main restaurant which does everything from nuggets and chips for the kids to rice dishes, meats and fish etc. with 20 plus meals per day. Some people moaned it's not like it is back home. They annoy me, they're not back home and shouldn't expect the same as in England. There's always an outside grill or bbq going too. Cocktail bars, nice local beer and pool tables, and there's also the pool and beach bars. In your room you'll find it spacious and the housekeepers will leave you swans rolled out of towels on your bed or flowers etc. Taba heights itself is reserved and lowkey but there's lots to do in the day. The hotel has people on site offering info on waterworld, PADI diving sites and excursions. The hotel is set on the hill, looking down over the golf course and towards the beach. You can just hop on the free shuttle bus to the beach every half hour.
One of the greatest things about this hotel is the fact it's sat on the top of the hill, and if you look out of the back of the hotel you face huge sandy red coloured mountains. Looking out of th front, from the pool or restaurant area you look over the golf course, down towards the beach and over the other side of the sea, close enough to see cars moving on the other side are the lands of Israel, Jordan and Saudi Arabia. The hotel is a great village type place where it's not just in one big block and not very tastefull looking. It's set out like a village and you can take a good hour just exploring the grounds and coming across on site supermarkets, which are well stocked and very cheap, off license, souvenire shops etc. Next door to the hotel is a lovely Indian restaurant with big screens for the footy. In a typical day you could go down to the beach, do a spot of snorkelling in the red sea, around the various coral reefs, then get some lunch at the beach bar, then off to the waterworld to do some jet skiing or para sailing, then off to hotel for a dip in the pool. When at the hotel have a go at keeping fit in the gym, before going to the room for a shower and coming out in the evening for a good meal and sit watching the sunset, whilst eating your meal, looking out over the red sea, across to the shores of Saudi.
