about our February trip to Egypt at the Seagull Beach Resort, I could not even think that I would love this perfect combination: sea, desert, mountains and hot climate. I used to leaf through travel magazines with sadness and thought that this was not for me. And so, I made up my mind. Decided on the hotel based on reviews on the Internet and the recommendations of friends. And in the middle of the night we set off forward into the summer. In the morning we were already there and inspected the territory. Seagull Beach Resort 4-star hotel was in the heart of Hurghada, right by the Red Sea, this is really a magical place, the views are amazing. We never regretted the fact that we went to "Seagull beach resort 4". Lovely hotel, chic, so well-groomed area, just "licked", the sea is a few minutes walk from the room. The food is excellent, several restaurants, bars. In restaurants, everything is delicious, from a light breakfast to a late dinner. All local alcoholic drinks, all soft drinks (Cola, Sprite, Fanta, soda, tonic, juice, tea, coffee). It's nice to drink tea on the beach, I liked to drink date tea with hibiscus, and for my friend, our Egyptian friend Adam picked mint from a flower bed, washed and brewed delicious, fragrant tea. They even thought about whether to pick us up as a present from Egypt for our friends. In restaurants, everything is delicious, from a light breakfast to a late dinner. Before breakfast at the hotel, we usually ate fruits that we bought at the market. Often our first breakfast was mango, they are very, very cheap here. One piece of mango weighs half a kilo and costs about two dollars. After such a light snack, I didn’t feel like eating at the restaurant. The animation is great. Everything in the hotel that you need to relax is there. Games, dancing, aerobics, beach volleyball, football. The location of the hotel itself is incomparable, in the center of Hurghada, near the hotel is full of souvenir shops and shops, and the famous Hard rock cafe is also located nearby. If this is your first time in the country, then I recommend that you not only lie on the beach, but also see interesting places. There are many tourists who fly to Egypt on vacation on package tours and at a meeting with a guide, the hotel guide offers to buy excursions from the same travel company. And the guides do their best to intimidate tourists in order to sell them their excursions, which cost twice as much as others. They especially treat those tourists who are on vacation for the first time. Hotel guides intimidate tourists that they don’t have to leave the hotel, that when they go on an excursion with other guides, their insurance will not work. Many are led to this scam, while others buy excursions from local companies, via the Internet, which is much cheaper. For example, we ordered from reliable people on the Internet, they have an office in the center, transfer to excursions is free and cheap. We went to see the Luxor. February is very good for excursions, there are few tourists here in February, the weather is pleasant, there is no heat. You can calmly consider everything and feel the energy of this sacred place. We also made an excursion to the bathyscaphe. I used to think that this was an excursion or entertainment for children. . But how wrong I was! What we saw through the porthole is simply beyond words. No diving or snorkeling can compare to this. No effort is needed, and you will see all the beauty of the sea anyway. We had a great time, enjoyed the underwater and surface world of the Red Sea. There were many great memories left from the rest, especially since we stocked up on souvenirs for family and friends before leaving. The hotel is good value. Recommended!
