More than suitable for winter holidays.
For summer holidays I always choose different hotels. If I am going to Egypt in winter, this will be one of the first options!
Lagoon.
Due to the U-shaped shape of the hotel, there is practically no wind in the lagoon. The water is not "fresh milk" but both adults and children swam. It's cold to swim, you can go to the large heated pool.
Sea.
There was a wind on the sea, but the sea is also warm. The temperature is like in the lagoon, but it comes out cold because of the strong wind. It is better to go there to swim in slippers.
Number.
We arrived early in the morning. They asked for 30. e. from three for a quick check-in.
We talked, bargained and settled us.
The room turned out to be good, even very good. 2nd floor sea view. It is not the even side that I recommend. Ours was 6107. The view is gorgeous, photo below.
Cleaning constantly. The cleaner was constantly in the building.
Water and bath accessories were added each time.
TV, fridge, safe, hair dryer... everything worked.
I didn't see any cons.
Maybe I just didn’t look for them, because I came to rest.
Question.
The question is relatively varied. Yes, the dishes were repeated, but there was always something new. There was always something fried for the evening. No one betrays you in a small piece, as they wrote before.
There were no frills, but still.
There were few fruits, but we compensated for this by buying them at Sheraton Boulevard.
In summer they say much more fruits are served.
For breakfast, very tasty omelettes and a good selection of cheeses.
Barry.
There were always 1-2 open bars in sight, although during this period only half of them were open. A bar on the beach of the lagoon, in the center of the pool, on the promenade and a lobby bar (on the second floor you can smoke).
At the bars, the cups are small, you often had to go for beer.
But the problem was resolved by buying normal half-liter glasses in the supermarket.
Alcohol.
Alcohol, like all Egyptian, is not a fountain))) When the brought alcohol ran out, we bought their squeals and vodka (we went for a walk at night, there were no bars nearby), we drank and did not die)))
The genie was normal. I am not a connoisseur of it, I trust the words of friends).
Wine for everyone. I didn't like the red at all, but the white was tolerable.
Cocktails were different, they are quite tasty.
The beer is very good. )
Pepsi, Fanta and Sprites are real.
"Juice" from the machine, it's poison)
Animation.
During the day, yoga, zumba and something else didn’t delve into it very much.
Volleyball was once a day.
There is table tennis. Billiards on the second floor of the lobby (extra charge).
Every evening a new program. If I'm not mistaken, it never happened again during our vacation. True, the first day or two, we did not go.
Restaurants on the map.
Italian restaurant, I don't remember the name.
NOTHING) If you decide to go there, go first to the main one and eat)
The attitude of staff to visitors, from the x series "whether you came to us.
It's written right on their faces)
Fish restaurant.
We have already been taught by bitter experience, we went to eat at the main restaurant. And here is a surprise))) Silence, candles are burning, pleasant staff ...they advise dishes from the menu and treat them with wine) We chose assorted ...served beautifully. I can’t say that it’s very tasty, but it’s worth it)
We didn’t go to the third one (like Arabic), because we were told that everything was on the menu in the general restaurant.
Tours.
Diving is something! You don't have to look far. At the end of the beach there is a crazy dolphin diving center. For every taste and color. There are even dives near the hotel, in the sea... not in the lagoon.
I recommend a combined tour. Island and two dives of 20 minutes. $45
Safari. Buggy, ATV, Bedouin, Camel, etc.
Separately, I want to note the way from the safari to the hotel by jeep.
Desert...night...visibility, here are the dimmed headlights of an old jeep (Toyota 4runner III mid-90s), in the middle of a dark desert, 1.5-2 meters.
The speed reached 90 km / h.
Given that there is no road there, there are dunes and huge stones ....it was a little scary.
Just a little bit ...the woman sitting next to me prayed ....she says, before that she didn’t even know prayers)
The little boy who was sitting in front ......as it seemed to me, spoke in Arabic and asked him to drop him off)) Although, with a fright, it could have seemed different to me))))))). It's a joke about the boy, he was just silent ....I think for a few more days after that)
Walks.
Fish market. (15-20 minutes walk)
You need to go to the market after lunch, it's still cheaper.
1 kg of crabs 5-6u. e. 1 kg of shrimp 2-8 c. u. it depends on the size. We took for 6
Everything was prepared there. I do not advise frying, as the frying is not often changed. Yes, and we tried, for an amateur.
We cooked them. Delicious. Ask for more salt, they probably regret it))).
Sheraton Boulevard (Marina) and embankment. Lots of shops and fruit benches.
Taxi drivers ask for more, but everyone agrees to 1. at. e, as soon as you say that you don’t go for their price)
There is a Metro store on Sheraton Boulevard, where you can buy everything you need for everyday life, etc. at fixed prices.
Finally, a little shit .....where without it)))
The reception staff is not very willing to move without sharpening. When you approach to ask something, it feels like you owe them a lot of money)
It is decided by a disgruntled face and a formidable voice or a couple of dollars.
The guide from Anex Tour is very annoying (does not apply to the hotel)
If you do not leave the hotel (if you do not buy a tour from him, which costs much more), do not listen, send him further and everything will be fine. No .....GENERALLY NO questions about the hotel they do not solve.
As usual, our brothers Slavs love to take sunbeds with towels.... the hotel is 40-50% full.... for what???
Apparently I have no idea)
Separately, I want to note. I am not a supporter of the division of people on vacation by country ...
and I do not want to offend anyone, but .....and this is a huge BUT ..!!!
People from Russia buy tours and fly roundabout routes, through Turkey and Belarus, but they are there.
Pleasant and good people do not yet gather in the company of 5-10 people and do not get drunk in the trash.
Here is one of the situations ....Potbellied ....ready to smoke .....a man, at the moment when the girl was dancing belly dance at the evening show, broke in to show her how to do it.
Security and staff do not care. Generally don't care!
I, having come to rest, do not want to look at the drunken snouts that perform such things.
Again, I will say, I say what I see ....and not the ideological shit of the Russians. Although, sometimes you want
Everyone can get drunk, but behave normally, do not spoil the rest of others!
Special thanks to gestrelation ....unfortunately, I forgot the name ....
A Russian-speaking girl who solved all issues on the first call, with one phone call) and writing herself down in a notebook.
Upon arrival, you should contact her, not the guide.
she will give a schedule of everything that happens in the hotel and tell you where to go and where not)
Let me summarize ....the usual 4-ka. Sometimes it's worse, sometimes it's worse
If you are expecting some kind of hype and Michelin-starred restaurants, this is not the place for you.
I would love to come back in winter!
