Thanks for your replies and understanding.

Oh yes, Stella di Mare, for some it is the highest class, but I warned that it is necessary to take hotels on the northern coast of Makadi and Sahl Hasheesh bays, otherwise it turns out like 12 chairs, for whom the mare is the bride.

allsafat,
there was no talk about the upper class. there was a conversation about "a class higher than Faraan"
... why do people so want to assert themselves here at the expense of others? are there no other possibilities?

Hurghada has more sandy beaches, while Sharm has mostly pantone beaches. So - for an amateur)

Uzom aSlavnaYa I don’t need to assert myself at the expense of someone, I am a travel agent and before I became a travel agent I was a very bastard tourist who changed hotels in Egypt on almost every tour and I believe that Pharaana is by no means a standard of quality, and choosing hotels for my tourists I first of all take into account their interests, but I also take into account my own interests, so that the next time people contact me, I could offer them another hotel of at least a class and that people could get services every time they contact me after which they will not have to change travel agents, it’s just that on the forum I give people advice not only from a professional point of view, but taking into account my experience as a tourist.

allsafat,
where in my words did you find the statement that Pharaana is the standard? I don’t consider her or Stella either super-hotels or garbage dumps. Both have advantages and disadvantages. I think they are worth the money I paid.
the person wrote the price, I advise those places where I was.
You are a professional in your field, which means that in a normal dialogue, advise a decent hotel for the declared amount, without humiliating the interlocutors.

, I am not in Zhytomyr and I am not a travel agent of the one who asked, his travel agent will proceed from the terms, which we do not know and the age of the third tourist, and will select the best option. People are traveling for the first time and without the advice of TA it will be difficult for them to choose a tour and a hotel. When they have specific questions about a particular hotel, then it will be possible to give specific advice, and now there is a discussion of geography.

By the way, the author, on the next branch, I found out that Join Up is starting direct flights to Marsa Alam, there you will find both a gentle entrance and corals that will give odds to Sharmovsky, because this resort is the youngest and there are not many hotels, corals are still failed to kill. True, there is a nuance, in Mars outside the hotel there is a desert, that is, all entertainment, not counting excursions, will take place on the territory of the hotel. Unless you can look at hotels in the Port Ghalib area, there is where to take a walk in the evening. But for the first trip it will be a lot of impressions from the sea. Yes, and Join will probably carry Sky up there, they have new boards, unlike their Bravo.

In terms of heat and sunstroke, if you do not follow the rules of safe exposure to the sun, then in green Kemer and Fethiye in April-May you can get a sunstroke, not only in June in the desert windless bays of Sharm. Ras Um el Sid Hadaba and Sharm el May hotels are full of tourists during the summer months, there is no mass epidemic of sunstroke among tourists, there are isolated cases like in all resorts
According to Club el Faraana 4 *, a very normal 4 *, unlike some incomprehensible 5 * hotels, which even 3 * are difficult to compare. For the first time holiday in Sharm, the best choice.

Victoria, well, what on this Pharaan light converged like a wedge or something? Is there no alternative to her in the summer, or what? I was in Otium Amforas in mid-September, feeling like in a sauna, in the evening we went for a walk in El Mercato, sorry, but my back was running, quickly returned to the lobby under the air conditioning. The meaning of such a holiday, there is nowhere to hide from the heat. And my sister flew to Maritim Jolie Willy in the first days of June last year, already at 10 in the morning it was +42 in the sun, it was constantly under an umbrella, at lunchtime she could barely run to the room covered with a towel and then managed to burn out and on the day before the flight she got heat stroke from vomiting, weakness and all the charms. To advise you to fly there in the summer is the same as to fly to Nabka in the winter, honestly. Charm, except perhaps, except for Nabka in the summer, as for me, this is suicide.

YaSlavnaYa, and what is the boast that you survived in August at +35? Is this heroism? H on vacation I want to relax, not survive in the brazier. Sometimes I marvel at our people. Have you ever wondered why hotels in closed bays are cheaper than in winter and than hotels in open areas? Although, I heard you, we will inject, but stubbornly eat a cactus))))

zolyshka111,
please do not take my words with hostility. I just answered your words, did not want to hook.
we really were in RUES in the heat of August, I agree - it's too hot. but that's how it was all over SHESH! that is, it’s more logical just not to go to Egypt in the summer, right?
You yourself write that both Amforas and Jolie Willy were just as uncomfortable - so why pay more? (c)
I wrote about Faraan for one reason - I was there with about the price that the owner of the branch writes about.
If a person does not know how to swim, one should go to the SHES where the sand is.
There are better hotels in Naama, but they are more expensive, in Sharks too.
you can, of course, go to Nabka and stupidly lie in three centimeters of water near the shore, but this is not for June.
if you go for the sake of pools and mountain-sea air, any hotel from today's inexpensive ones will do. in the same Waterfalls, there are worthy pools with sea water and a jacuzzi, but a sandy beach with waist-deep sea ...

there is a small problem with planes to Marsa Alam: people, frightened by the delays with Joint, are reluctant to agree to Marsa, and initially the contract, as far as I know, is 3 times a week. the boards were not recruited, they were removed, transferred to Hurghada. but it is not exactly ))))
if you decide to fly there, monitor in more detail - because of this, we refused everything and went to Sentido

The probability of getting a sunstroke in Nabq in the summer is greater than in Hadaba, because the Nabq breeze gives a deceptive impression of coolness. I repeat, if the rules of being in the sun are not followed, there is a high probability of sun and heat strokes in any resorts in Turkey, Greece, Bulgaria, Egypt ... I also saw how an ambulance came to a hotel in Turkey where the whole territory is a garden and many trees, and the temperature was + 30, someone got sunstroke.
I don’t choose Egypt for summer holidays, because it’s hot for me there. But there are many other tourists experienced in Egypt or inexperienced tourists choose summer holidays in Egypt, this is their choice. Even the most experienced, who know what summer holidays in Sharm are, choose Nabq and Hadaba and Naam for June-August.

According to club el Faraana 4 *, the beach and sandy entry from the shore are better than Otium.
Of course, for the first time in Sharm, when you don’t understand what beaches, reefs, how it will be convenient to enter from the shore or a pontoon, then the best choice is Reef Oasis Beach 5 * and Movenpick 5 *, where there is everything to choose from when entering the sea. But on a budget, the neighbor of Reef Oasis Beach is Club El Faraana 4 *. And unlike Nabq, there are no strong currents in Hadab, which is also important for the first time.
I'm vacationing in Reef Oasis Beach in late August and early September, yes it's hot, but the guests of the hotel did not have sun or heat stroke in 10 days of stay

I can’t understand this either, I love Hurghada more, the sand on the beaches, I know the city well, the supermarkets are “local”, but in Sharm there’s really no city, everywhere everything is expensive for tourists.
in Hurghada, again, there are not so many "ours". By the way, I didn’t know that it’s warmer in Sharm, because it’s to the north ..

Back to preferences again!
Someone is afraid of water and needs sand, you can’t pull someone out of the sea, admiring corals. Both in Sharm and Hurghada there are hotels with a sandy beach, there are hotels where there are also corals.
I have been to Hurghada and Sharm more than once. Hurghada is closer to Egyptian celebrities (Luxor, the pyramids of Cairo, Aswan). And probably I can’t say what I like more. They are both similar and a little different. But I’m returning to the climate. For me, Egypt is a winter resort, when I can indulge - sunbathe, swim in the sea. heat.
Now about Faraan Beach. This is a middle-class hotel, it attracts me with its bay and a pretty good coral reef. I think it's a good option for the TS. There is a hotel in Hurghada, it used to be called LillyLand4 *, a very worthy four with a water park. And the last one is JOIN! A few days ago, Zaporozhye tourists spent more than a day at the Zaporozhye airport through the fault of Joyne. Therefore, I will always say "Joyne is in last place for me

For multiple visits to EG, the most beautiful sea, from what we saw, was in Hurghada and not in Sharm.
More precisely in Makadi.
From the house reef of the hotel Fort Arabesque we were completely delighted. In Sharm, I have never seen such a variety.
The video is different, but the picture was the same.

I also liked the sea in Mars. More precisely, in Port Ghalib.

Oh, the issue has been brought up again.
As they say - "The taste and color of all felt-tip pens are different." (c) Therefore, it all comes down to personal preferences.
I'll put in my five cents, I like to relax in Hurghada more (I've been to Sharm and Hurghada quite a few times).
The most interesting thing is when you express this opinion when communicating with a person, he starts to crush with a stereotypical opinion in Sharm it’s cool and clean and warm in winter, but in Hurghada it’s dirty, there are no fish, it’s dangerous to walk around the city at night, etc., despite the fact that the interlocutors mostly were in Egypt 2-3 times.
1. I agree with those who unsubscribed about the visa above, a huge number of people fly to Sharm so as not to pay 25 bucks per person, although its cost is compensated, even with a budget holiday, by the quality of the hotel, the big plus of Hurghada is that most of the hotels are on the first line.
2. Dirt, also a controversial point, would not say that Sharm is sterile clean, for example - you should not take a taxi from the hotel to the old market, but walk and you will be saturated with impressions.

3. There is nowhere to take a walk in Hurghada, whoever says this probably was not there, since Hurghada is not limited to Sheraton, I will not paint - Google to help.
4. Coral fish, I’ll tell you a secret that not every Sharm hotel has rich house reefs, there are hotels with dead and poor reefs, and if you are a big fan of reefs and marine life in the case of Hurghada or a yacht or Sharm el Naga (will give a huge head start to many Sharm el Naga house reefs).
5. Due to the warm weather in winter, I agree that Sharm wins with a protected bay, which is why I fly there in winter, but here you need to carefully approach the choice of the bay, otherwise first-timers often hear enough of Sharm warmer, and take trips to Nabka in winter (as an argument, it’s cheaper) , and then spit from impressions.
I also like the lineup of hotels in Hurghada - at least not a lazy person, but I like it more - you sat down on the lift and you are in a bar or restaurant, against the Sharmovsky "houses", the hotel territory has not been a priority for a long time, the main thing is the first line and not remoteness from the center.

Regarding the lack of a visa in Sharm, yes it is free Sinai only, but only for 14 days and only to the Sinai Peninsula.
if you suddenly decide to go to Cairo or Luxor on an excursion, you need to buy it.

I agree about Sharm El Naga with Alex714.
This is of course a coral reserve and it is impossible to compare it with the coral reefs of both Sharma and Hurghada. I first learned about it back in 08. Very few Egyptian travel agencies knew about it, and even more so ours, but we got there. There were very few people there, three or four small groups. Mostly Western Europeans. We spent a great day there, the fish circled around us. The corals are alive, bright. Since then, if I go there in Hurghada.
It’s a pity, but his growing popularity is not serving him well, the number of guests is growing there, and this is bad for corals. This year, my son and his family returned from Hurghada and was in Sharm el-Naga. The story about the reserve depressed me, a hotel appeared there, a bunch of buses with tourists, hence the problems.
