Rested with family from 20 to 27 December.
3 adults and 2 children.
Ticket for $1500.
For this money, for such a composition, and for another 7 nights, everything corresponds.
STAFF: polite, Russian speaking. We became friends with many.
FOOD: monotonous, but you will not stay hungry. Lots of cakes every day. In the evenings, fish or meat is sometimes grilled.
Alcohol - if cola with brandy, or sprite with vodka, then it's okay. In general, for those who have this important indicator, it is better to stock up in duty free.
BEACH: clean, relatively close, although the 2nd line, but on foot you can walk in 7 minutes. We were often driven by a bus driver.
The sea is clean, it is better to enter with aquashoes. Or walk on the pontoon. There are fish and corals, it's beautiful.
There are pools, there are plenty of sunbeds everywhere.

ROOMS AND CLEANING: we had booked 2 and 3 bed rooms. But we were given two 3-seater. Lucky. The rooms are spacious. Very comfortable. There is hot water. Cleaned up every day. We lived on the first floor. As for me, this is the best option.
WEATHER: on the days of our arrival from the whole week there were really 3 warm days, everything else was windy. The sea is not always comfortable, but near the pool there is a place where there is no strong wind, you can sunbathe.
ANIMATION: exercises, zumba, darts are provided to you on the beach. In the evening there was sometimes a disco, we went once, we were not particularly impressed. Children hung out there at every opportunity. The animators themselves are cool guys. They try.
Excursions: Do not rush to buy right away. Find out the price in different places, and everywhere it will be different, and everywhere you will be told that this is the most profitable excursion)))
WHAT I WOULD RECOMMEND:
1. take a taxi, especially if you are 3-5 people and go to the Old City. It's worth it, there you can enjoy the color, eat shrimp. There they cost $ 8-10 per kg (and at the hotel they will offer you $ 14). In general, there is a variety of seafood. Many will recommend the famous seaside restaurant Fares. Yes, he is handsome, the most popular! But at 1.5-2 more expensive than opposite restaurants)))
There is a pharmacy with fixed low prices in the Old Town. Who knows the quality of Egyptian medicines will understand what I mean. Just don't see the "state drugstore" signs. Ask the locals where the cheapest pharmacy will be shown to you. We stocked up well at the pharmacy, which was 50-100 meters from the fish restaurant.
There, in the Old Town, you can find excursions, they are cheaper than anywhere we have seen. Bought on a quad there.
In the old town, you can stock up a bit, but don't rush. Since Sharm has a chic George Clooney huge store, which has absolutely everything.

2. George Clooney. Google it, there is a lot of information about this store. We bought EVERYTHING there! Transfer there and back is always free. Cosmetics, teas, clothes, sweets. EVERYTHING IS VERY CHEAP. Who needs suitcases, don't buy houses. There are cool suitcases. We bought a huge luxury suitcase for $35, and a small one for $22.
3. Visit the Ros Mohammed Nature Reserve by boat. There are gorgeous corals and lots of fish. This is a sea of ​ ​ pleasure. We swam there. Be sure to take masks.
IN SUMMARY: the hotel is good, it's worth it, I recommend it. The only thing I would like to wish for is the heated pools. When windy, he would save.
