For the first time I went with a friend to Egypt. Thanks to the site "Turpravda" and people's reviews. When choosing a hotel from all offered by the travel agency, the choice fell on this hotel. In general, the rest and stay at the hotel are very satisfied. I read the previous review... smiled. People want to have super conditions for ridiculous money. Pay thousands of dollars and get what you want. And for 350-400 dollars per week, this hotel has wonderful conditions.
So, in order.
1) We flew from Minsk. Tour operator CORAL TRAVEL. At the airport, I was met by a representative of an Egyptian company (waiting at the exit with a sign... you won’t pass by). He told me right away where to go. They got on the bus. We waited for the rest of the passengers. It took about 15 minutes to get to the hotel. Very close. At what 18 km and two hours of driving was written in the previous review, I don’t understand)).

2) Arrived at the hotel in the morning around 9.00. We were immediately registered, put on bracelets and offered to go to breakfast. The breakfast was great. I was surprised by the huge amount of food for every taste. . . AND YES!! ! There were no oysters and lobsters)) pichalka)). But there were wonderful pancakes from the heat, from the heat), airy omelet, a lot of snacks, vegetables. Which made me very happy.
3) Settlement. I had to wait a bit. BUT!! ! According to the rules of the hotel check-in time is from 14.00. Therefore, to be indignant (as I read here in the reviews) that they did not settle immediately is stupid. You were warned in advance. They settled us in 3 hours. During this time, we successfully connected the Internet, went for a walk around the territory, studied the location of the pool, bars and the beach. Everything is within walking distance, well maintained and comfortable.
4) Room 1114 next to the restaurant. Ground floor with access to a small compact terrace. Yes, the number definitely does not pull on the usual European 4 *. But there was everything needed. Clean bed, safe, refrigerator, wardrobe, table, bedside tables. Although if you find fault, then of course there are disadvantages: tiles and plumbing that have already seen the types, the lack of light in the shower stall itself, the lack of rugs by the bed (it’s unpleasant to get out of bed with bare feet on the tiled floor). A friendly boy came running and said that he would clean our room and asked if everything was fine. We asked for an extra 2 more bottles of water. Brought it without any problems.
5) Room service. We were with a friend. We agreed in advance that we would give the boy a dollar (each) for cleaning. And one more thing... I took 10 small chocolates with me and, in addition to dollars, they also left a chocolate bar. Well, by God, we didn’t get poorer for these 6 dollars a week, but there were many more pluses: they asked for additional glasses - they got them right away, they didn’t leave us 2 bottles of water, but 4, there were interruptions in hot water - they complained and the boy himself brought some locksmith and the problem was gone. Every day we changed the bed, towels and even swans "sculpted" on the bed and put fresh flowers. So don't be greedy and you'll be fine.

6) Beach. Basically a nice sandy beach. Plenty of sunbeds and towels provided. Beach bar with free local drinks. To be honest, their local alcohol is real rubbish)). Of everything we tried, we stopped only at white wine (it was only given in a restaurant for free) and brandy (it was everywhere and on the beach). But we went to rest, not to drink alcohol. Although we saw many just varnishing. During the day, you could have a snack at the bar: french fries, steamed vegetables, fresh vegetables, fruits, pizza. So you won't be hungry for sure.
7) Sea. It's wonderful! The sea itself. But the exit on the pontoon is inconvenient. And there is clearly not enough space for swimming. It was tight. But I'm not a very good swimmer, so wearing corals I swam in shallow water. There's water in the tide up to the waist. The water is medicinal.
8) Rest itself. Very satisfied. In general, the holiday was a success. In the evenings we went to Soho (an area in the Old Town (or old market)). Taxi back and forth for two $6. There are cafes, shops, shops. You can bargain and buy a bunch of everything for a penny. Halva, oriental sweets, fruits. . . everything was taken there.
I wish everyone more positive and do not look for something to complain about. Sea, sun, positive emotions - what else do Belarusians need in winter after winter slush?
