We returned from Ewan Hotel on Friday. First time in the UAE. . . and definitely the last. I did not expect such a warm welcome. With me, two young ladies, who for many years went on vacation exclusively to the UAE, were simply deported without explanation, having taken away their passports. I also had to endure an unpleasant standing in three lines due to a nervous breakdown at one of the employees checking visas. Finally, leaving the airport, we found that no one was meeting us... pushing ourselves around, we found an alleged analogue of our Mostrevel... there it is called Travko. Enough about the sad. . . settled us on the second floor. . . as it turned out, there are only two of them. On the first floor it is noisy from the bowling club, which is on the basement... and on Fridays they play noisy weddings in the banquet hall. The room is quite... Yes, the windows are not washed every day, and the curtains are not washed every day (as some reviews say)... but personally it didn’t cause me any inconvenience... The main view is on the sea)) And the bed linen is really CHANGE every day. On the hotel beach, where the bus takes us in the morning, we were once....I didn’t like it... There are few umbrellas, but otherwise there is no difference from the wild beach, which is next to the hotel. We didn’t go there often, because you can’t jump over the waves with a cub... Where is it more convenient to climb onto the roof of the hotel, and in comfort, under umbrellas, on sunbeds, watch how the cub in armlets himself sausages in the pool. Especially towels without collateral-cards, change at least a hundred times a day.
After lunch, we went by hotel bus to shopping centers... We almost didn’t go on excursions, because, again, to do it! Once we were on a survey with a super-guide Larisa. People actively took pictures against the backdrop of the Parus Hotel, the tallest tower in the world... and some other unpronounceable names. We personally visited the aquarium on two floors with pleasure, looked at the singing fountains (they are not even illuminated).
Sharjah is the most strict, however, and the most boring emirate. Alcohol is prohibited, there is nowhere special to leave the hotel... except for a couple of restaurants nearby. On the street, they can make a remark about too open (revealing) clothing. They didn’t do it to us, because we respected local customs and strictly observed them. In principle, you can take a taxi anywhere, because it is inexpensive... so, only 10 local rubles to the center of Sharjah... We just navigated....Stupidly 0 was added... and it turned out in about rubles... In fact, a little less... but it’s more convenient). There were no complaints about the hotel, either we are not pretentious, or people who make claims want too much for this price... Breakfast is like breakfast... ordinary... croissants of all stripes, butter, cheese, sausage, yogurts, fruit salad, anything from eggs, porridge, sausages, local similarity of potato pancakes. . . Well, do you roll out 10 dishes for breakfast at home? ! We took half board and opted for breakfast and lunch. For lunch there were always delicious soups, even the kids ate, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhhhhh...... If you take dinner instead of lunch, they will serve leftovers from lunch in portions... You can eat, because everything is the same... but less, and you can’t choose. On the second floor there is a free sauna, a hammam and a gym. On... um... in general, on the floor below the basement there is a children's playroom... there is really modest lighting, and one child was afraid to climb... I had to go with him.

I have already spoken about the excursions, I can only say that I would no longer contact our... like a bridge-grass guide, however, all guides are only interested in selling you more excursions... this is their interest in you... alas....ends. Who goes for fur coats - you can turn to Gulya (who, by the way, helped us out a lot with calls to our guide, when we waited a long time for the bus at the exit, for which she deserves a separate measure) or to Almaz, they are sitting on the left, near the elevator. Almaz was a patient guy who accompanied us all evening, so we bought a fur coat.
No one really speaks Russian at the reception, so a minimum knowledge of English will not hurt.
In general, the hotel is not for children, and not for family vacations, and not for shopping... It is for people who themselves know what they want... Since you came with a child - entertain, mothers also drove us around Anapa without animation in childhood... Once we arrived as a family - enjoy. And if for shopping - all conditions are created....You are the creators of your holiday)))
There will be questions - contact...
