So - the Kalimera Golden Beach Hotel... in the catalogs with a claim to the "five", in reality - a good three.
1. Food - really boring. To make it clear: in the morning sliced ​ ​ tomatoes and cucumbers; at lunch - they are the same, but already together, without dressing, and in the evening - they are the same, but with sour cream and morning sausages in the form of a salad... Horror!
A similar story was with eggplant... and other things...
And in general, there were vegetables... tomatoes, cucumbers, eggplants, in a variety of cuts (circles, slices, squares)... And I really wanted vegetables! Ehhh. . .
For the first - always ! ! The same soup-puree from vegetables... True, once, they added a tomato there and got a tomato soup-puree...

2. Beach - you can't imagine worse!! ! At the end of the pontoon, there are invariably 3-5 yachts... Here the following question arose: the Arabs, to put it mildly, are not so clean people (no offense)... where does the waste merge ? ? In addition, about 20 people are crowded into the yacht of tourists, who, oddly enough, also use the toilet while riding on the seas and dales... That's true, who will explain: where the waste is dumped ???!! ! I suppose that here, at the pontoon, they are drained... Yes, plus all sorts of oil products and oils there are different from the yacht... Honestly, the desire to swim is not something that does not arise, but even scary! By the way, no fish, except for a small sardine, can be seen there... AT ALL! and the sardine is already a rarity. . . So don't expect to admire the delights of the Red Sea and its inhabitants with a mask. . . You can only look at corals on excursions when you are taken to special places. . .
By the way, the mud that you see at low tide is a separate song (the low tide exposes the bottom and, in principle, you can calmly walk along the mud waste,... so to speak, relax . . for an amateur, in general, rest)
3. Hotel pools: I have never seen such horror. . . Chlorine at 22.00 becomes the prevailing smell almost until the morning!! ! During the day, it also smells. . . Frankly speaking, the parents "touched" them, allowing the children to swim there. . . and those resting near the pool, in a light aura of chlorine, also touched in their own way. . .
4. And the MOST IMPORTANT thing is: dear parents and all lovers of warm rest! Look, it's ALWAYS WINDY out there! Regardless of the time of year, do not trust your tour operators! First of all, this is evidenced by the crazy number of windmills! "There is always wind" - so the animators in the hotel said! Warm clothes, windbreakers - why do you need it ? ! It's easier to choose another hotel and another place! And if you are a windsurfer, then you really are here!
5. Everything else - rooms with a Soviet foundation, reception staff with arrogant frank demands for money for a settlement, service in bars, reacting exclusively to the Germans and licking them, non-working a la carte restaurants, a taxi to the city costing 15 bucks... - These are, of course, little things that you can put up with! : ) After all, you're not going to a room! : ) Yes, you can put up with a lot, especially since we Russians are no strangers : )
By the way, only Germans are congratulated on their birthday in the hotel! Other non-foreigners are completely forgotten : )

Oh, I almost forgot: do not take valuables and money with you!!: )))) Just kidding, of course!: ) There are no safes in the rooms, and the hotel guide, a kind-hearted person, said at the meeting: “We don’t know what kind of people work for us, so it's better to rent a safe at the reception for 2 c. u. per day, total - 15 c. u. for the remaining 6 days" : ))) Whoever taught him math - God bless him! : )) And to the one who selected the staff - double thanks! : )
