Rested with a friend in the Club. I agree with people who positively evaluate holidays in Egypt, in the Golden Five. We are 35 years old, we have previously vacationed in Russia, Ukraine, Turkey, Thailand, in 4 and 5 star hotels, so we have the experience of relaxing in different hotels and resorts. . . I really liked the hotel! Yes, not new furniture, yes, not 1 minute from the sea. . . But PEOPLE!! ! we are not oligarchs!! ! We live at home in ordinary apartments, we don’t change furniture every 1.5 years, and going to the sea through beautiful territory is just REST (and why did you come here? - live on the beach - get up - and at the sea? )!! ! The hotel has quite decent rooms, bed linen is WASHED, towels are changed every 2 days (by the way, how often do you change YOUR towel at home? every day? I doubt it! ). Upon arrival, and we arrived at the hotel at 10 o'clock - late in the evening, we were pleasantly surprised - we were offered dinner, although dinner time for everyone had already expired. Among the group of arrivals there were men of a rather dense physique, but they were also satisfied with the dishes served. At no extra cost, we (and as it turned out, many others) were placed in a good room. Everything worked, although there was a slight misunderstanding of the operation of the safe, which was explained by a non-Russian speaking man - he showed everything on his FINGERS, demonstrated it and everything fell into place. We were warned that the Egyptians are like Russian workers - they are in no hurry to do their job, but apparently we got to the right time - everything worked properly, everything was cleaned while we were on the beach, everything was repaired within half an hour (I don’t even remember what could go wrong? ). The room has a combined bathroom - shower, hair dryer, TV with Russian channels, air conditioning. Everything looked decent, Not cracked, Not broken, hot and cold water flowed at any time of the day, the hair dryer worked (and for the first time when I went abroad I wanted to bring a hair dryer with me, I ONLY style my hair with a hair dryer). Always put soap, shampoo, caps in the bath. All of these are of good quality and on time. If you soil a towel (which is very doubtful - after all, hot water and shampoo, soap in the bathroom are always present), you can replace it - put it on the floor in the bathroom and you will be hung up with a new one. We didn’t deposit money, but they always laid interesting figures out of towels for us. . . so nice!! ! Guys, and who will do this to you at HOME? ! The restaurant in the Club is the best, we checked! You can go and eat everywhere, in all the hotels of the complex, even without an appointment. But anyway, everyone we met, from all the hotels, came to dinner with us, at the Golden Fife Club! True, we drink wine, but in Egypt the wine is simply TERRIBLE!! ! But quite decent cocktails are mixed in the bar (all inclusive! !! ) for free, especially if you ask for less alcohol and more raspberry syrup - just SUPER! Phantom - quite... Beer is also not bad, especially if not in large portions and immediately (not long in a glass under the sun !!!!!! ) - then it will warm up and become... FU! In the pools, ordinary chlorinated water. And what did you want? There are certain norms, we ourselves saw how samples are taken from the pool. . . But after all, we came to the SEA! And the sea - KAIF !!!!! ! I really liked the beach - every day in the morning they changed the pattern on the sand of the beach - SO CUTE! And there were enough sunbeds for everyone - free of charge and with good mattresses! And towels on the beach separate - no need to drag with you. And what a wonderful cafe on the beach! From early morning water and drinks, and at 10 am - beer (which was a panacea for many at that time! ) And alcohol. And they cook pizza (mini) in front of you right in the oven! and next to it - a grill - a chicken - VERY tasty! You can also ride a horse or a camel (for a fee). ABOUT THE SEA separately, you can write very good. a lot! Beautiful is nothing to say. I am not a great swimmer, but I was able to swim 3 meters from the shallows. And there is - REEF! And the fish swim BEAUTIFUL, MULTICOLOR!! ! On the territory, before reaching the sea, there is a lagoon with sea water - already there you can get acquainted with the fauna of the Red Sea. When we were on the bridge - the passage you could see a fish - a needle and a fish - a box. Everyone took a picture, everyone was fed buns from the buffet (they liked it). In the lagoon you can (my childhood dream came true!!! ) jump on a trampoline, it is in the water on an inflatable ring. Next to the water park. Also a great pastime! It was there that I first rolled down the hill. How much delight, especially when you look at the nearby children! There are slides for all levels - both for the "Pioneers" and for the sophisticated "Water Racers". And I especially liked that near each pool there is an inscription how many centimeters deep it is. In the Aquapark there are tiny pools for (in my opinion miserable) children about 35 cm. Moms stand next to the fungi, and the children sit in a bowl of water - everyone is happy! I also liked the ANIMATION. Although we did not go for active rest. . . But everything was on the beach in the morning - aerobics, hotel dances (very funny, even adult ladies and men got up with everyone to dance! ), Belly dance. Children at this time can also be busy in the kids club (they found a COMMON LANGUAGE with everyone, despite the fact that they were from Russia, Ukraine, Germany, Turkey, Lebanon). In the evening - a special spectacle! SINGING FOUNTAINS! People come to watch it from other hotels in Hurghada, as well as residents of this city - whole families with husbands, many wives and children for money! VERY wonderful, Music, Color, Texture !! ! After additional events often take place, I especially remember the man - Yula! Amazing !!! ! And after 3 days there was a boy - Yula! Everyone just admired his skill! There were many other wonderful things. Oriental dances, belly dances! And from all I want to draw a conclusion. The main thing is to go on vacation with a positive attitude!! ! And think in advance - if I enjoy my vacation, look for the positive in everything, then EVERYTHING WILL BE WONDERFUL!! ! Have a good rest in a GOOD Club Golden Fife hotel!! !
