1. Grand Plaza Resort 4* can be said to be a branch of the Grand Plaza Hotel 4*
2. They cheated with a visa - they "sold" it for $ 27 each without filling (they promised for $ 25, I had to fill it out myself according to a cheat sheet prepared in advance)
3. Not the 1st line (in the end it turned out not so bad... more calmly, all organizational issues of leisure were resolved and organized on the territory of the Grand Plaza Hotel located 300 meters from each other).
4. All staff are Egyptians!! ! Some men... maybe this is why the houses in the district are square, strict architectural forms of buildings - without a "zest". They are cleaned, but somehow without too much accuracy and diligence... for example: in a restaurant, bar, dining room, the remaining garbage is raked from the tables to the floor, the same is done when cleaning the coasters for dishes...
5. There is no shampoo in the bathroom, so you need to stock up in advance, 5 meters of rope for drying swimming suits, clothespins and laundry soap will not hurt!
6. If you leave the balcony doors for ventilation - wait for mosquitoes, small, but voracious. Although annoying small flies are chasing almost the whole day. At about 18.00, insects are poisoned, enveloping all the greenery on the territory of the hotel with thick and acrid smoke.
7. It gets dark very early - at 20.00 it is already dark, in connection with this, they are kicked out of the pool at about 18.00, the servants complain: “I want to go home !!! ” (they say do not interfere with cleaning).
8. In the evening, a cool breeze blows, which beckons you to walk the streets of Hurghada.
9. And here it begins - the owners of stores with Russian names literally drag them in, resorting to proven managerial techniques: brother, leave a review, drink tea, how you like the smell, etc. I had, after a free tea party from hibiscus, buy perfume))).
10. In continuation of the theme "I'll give you a good deal", they take our tourist on free tours around the city, or rather, on trade missions: Leather and Furs, Souvenirs, Teas, the World of Sweets, thereby depriving you of the right to choose. In some cases, there are shops in which the craftsmen make the Souvenir themselves, so in the store, accompanied by a guide, a simple fridge magnet with Egyptian symbols cost a little more than $2, when they found the same one, but for $1.
11. Alcohol of local production according to the "All Inclusive" system is poured from 11.00, but at the same time they use hot glasses - after pouring wine into it, you no longer want to drink. Common drinks are made from powder according to the Jupi class.
12. Tipping. Very fond of and adequately respond. I left $ 1 for cleaning the room, so the cleaner left two bottles of 1.5 liters of clean water (every day they give 1 bottle of water), and made two sheets on the large bed, and twisted a towel in the shape of a "goose"))).
13. There is a struggle for a place on the beach - idiots tie several sunbeds with scarves or throw T-shirts, and then they say (coming in 1-1.5 hours) they say they wanted to lie down for three. You can come at 07.00 there will be a lot of places, but tourists also scatter towels on sunbeds (trestle beds are booked).
14. Corals cannot be exported, but a couple of small shells that were independently caught in the sea were nevertheless taken out.
15. I was resting on my birthday - they brought a birthday cake to the room.
16. On the day of departure, the room was vacated at 12.00 (departure at 01.30 at night!!! ). For $ 13 they changed the bracelet (plastic bracelets mark vacationers) for a guest one, giving the right to lunch and dinner, nailing on the hotel territory before departure, but already outside the room.
17. The water in the sea is warm, clear, a lot of fish can be observed while they are feeding - it is enough to detail either a bun or pita bread. Safety shoes for diving near the corals will not hurt, though I also managed with flip flops.
18. Food - buffet. We were always full, fruits and salads from them, a variety of pastries.
19. Locals always ask “How are you? ”, I took a reference book at the reception and mocked them with answers in Arabic such as: Asalam Maleikum... Izzyak? Etc.
20. Animators. The locals are cool boys, but there were 3 aunts of Slavic appearance - complete mediocrity, even one didn’t have a figure - all square, how are they selected ! ? Probably blind!
This was such a vacation! Thanks to all! Good luck!
