This is my third review of Zahabia. Let's start with the flight. The tour was taken in JoinUp. The air carrier was declared "Bukovina". In Boryspil we were put on a bus and taken somewhere for a long time. In some corner of the airport, an ancient stuffed airplane with the inscription "Bravo" was waiting for us! At first it seemed that we were brought to the aircraft museum, because Douglas, perhaps, was the one in which President Roosevelt flew to the Yalta conference. It became clear why we were taken so far: in order not to disgrace Boryspil with such a shabby and old plane. Creaking and howling, this rarity of aviation did fly to Hurghada. The transfer to the hotel was routine: “Don't be fooled elsewhere. Buy excursions from us. The meeting with the guide was also not verbose: “Not interested in tours? Goodbye. "
Zahabia greeted us warmly, like old acquaintances. The room was immediately offered in the fourth building. This is a luxurious two-room suite with a sea view. Without any surcharges.
The description of the hotel is in my previous reviews on Tophotels. I will only add that the owner of the hotel has changed. Completed internal renovation of the rooms. Furniture and appliances (except, perhaps, air conditioners) have been replaced with new ones. Finished exterior trim. By the beginning of the summer season, everything on the territory of the hotel will be painted and repaired. In the future - the replacement of beach umbrellas and sun loungers.

The food has improved. Apparently due to the fact that the number of tourists has increased. Since the seventh building was being repaired, we ate at the cafe by the large pool. I won't describe the menu. If you are interested, please ask in private - I will tell you in detail. In no hotel of this class, waiters in a restaurant serve coffee and other drinks to visitors. And in Zahabia, this is in the order of things.
The hotel staff is very polite and tactful. They never demanded a "vandolar", and they performed their work quickly and efficiently. Almost all employees speak English, so there were no problems in communication.
The animation for Zahabia is amazing! Ayman tries and he does it well. Every evening there was something new. There were belly dances, and tanura, discos and karaoke. There was even a fakir! Moreover, Ayman himself turned out to be a fakir). He walked on glass and nails, showed different tricks with swords. The hotel bought a wonderful animator. Hello my friend!
The contingent of vacationers consisted mainly of Ukrainians and Belarusians. There was one Arab family and one elderly woman from Germany.
Excursions this time we did not buy. In November last year, we ran into plenty. The hotel has its own seller of excursions. And his prices are reasonable.
Coming home was in the spirit of Join. The flight was delayed for 12 hours. It would seem that this is an extra day for rest, but we lost tickets, which we bought a bus home in advance and had to spend the night in Boryspil. Once again I was convinced that Join is a “sharashka office”.
