Departure from Minsk. At the Teztour counter, you pick up tests for covid and stand in line for registration (everything is nearby). You must bring masks and gloves with you. Belavia on board feeds well, but does not give coffee / tea. On board, fill out migration cards, a self-declaration (it was not required later) and a declaration upon arrival in Hurghada (it was taken away when leaving the plane, and they also checked the tests for covid). After the plane, give the migration card and that's it.
The arrival was early (at 6 am we were already at the hotel). At the entrance, they always measure the temperature and check what is in the packages. They settled only after 20 bucks, and put on the bracelets at 10.00. We were given a room near the spa.
Number. There were 2 separate beds but we put them together. The bathroom was a bit tatty and the shower barely ran. There were ashtrays in all rooms. Tea, coffee, mini-bar, no kettle in the room, current 2 glasses in the bathroom. There is a safe. Cleaned up every day.

The territory of the hotel. More or less well-groomed. There are cages with parrots. 1 bar near the pool (did not work). The beach bar was open from 10.00 to 17.00 (tea, coffee, alcohol). At 11.00 sweet buns were brought to the beach. It is forbidden to swim in the pool after 17.00. In the main restaurant, the temperature is constantly measured and the room number is recorded. The choice of food in the morning is the same, at lunch and dinner more varied. The choice is small, you will not stay hungry (rice, pasta, soups, chicken, fish, beef). Salads sometimes were, and sometimes collect yourself. All chefs serve, not himself. The waiters wear masks, everyone else without them. There is no animation at all, only the music was included.
Beach. Entrance only with corals, you will cut your legs. There are fish near the pier. Moray eels and cuttlefish sailed.
Departure from Hurghada. At the check-in counter, you again need to fill out a migration card (give it at passport control) and a declaration (it will be picked up when boarding the plane). Mango can be carried in a box as hand luggage, it can be in luggage. Self-declarations will again be handed out on board, but again they do not require it. There are dutiks, but at 3-5 USD. more expensive than in Minsk. Upon arrival in Minsk there are 2 dutik. Buy there, cheaper (immediately after passport control and before baggage claim).
