Смешанные чувства Mixed feelings

Titanic

First impression - where did I go? ! On the second day I got used to it and didn't pay attention anymore.

Got in at 9 am. The bracelets are put on at 10. The room is given at 12. I just brazenly took my suitcase from the reception, pulled out the necessary clothes from the suitcase, put it in a Duty Free bag, and my son changed into shorts, swimming trunks and T-shirts in the toilet. At other times, it is better to put the first change of clothes in a separate bag (! ), along with sunscreen. Then he approached the hotel guide and asked to make us a room early. The receptionist promised at 11. In the meantime, we went to check out the water park!

The only drawback so far is that there is no bar on the territory of the water park. Wonderful ...For drinks you have to go almost to the main building.


The number was given 4056. This is the 3rd floor. Two elevators that crawl slower than a turtle. The windows overlook the road ...And ...The sea! Super! Great view. Much better than in the trash or construction site; ) The room is almost above the entrance. Everything is working. But (Arabs! ) fridge and all sockets.
turns off along with all the equipment when you remove the electronic key from the socket. Leave the mobile phone to charge - figs! It will be necessary to try to remove the key fob from the key and leave it in the room, taking the key with you. ; )

There are only 2 sockets in the room! ! ! Take a trio with you.

Air conditioning, it seems that it has 2 modes: working and not working. Attempts to control the temperature have so far been unsuccessful.

Yes, it turned out that you can leave the key fob in the nest, and take only the key with you.

The soundproofing in the room is excellent. With the balcony closed, I did not hear Mullah at the mosque in the morning.

At breakfast, the juice dispenser broke down. Right when I used it. The stream just kept flowing. It was funny to watch how the Egyptians organize the liquidation of the catastrophe. Very much like an ant.

Breakfast cuisine is traditional for Egypt. There is everything you need. Pancakes, scrambled eggs, toast, cereal, fruit, boiled eggs, coffee. I like it.
For lunch and dinner, they prepare a delicious gravy over spaghetti and vermicelli. You can just pour over the bolognese, or you can ask the chef to fry the mix. Did it twice. The chefs were different - and the taste is also different. Each chef uses his own ingredients. A mix is ​ ​ when onions are fried, ground garlic, peppers, tomatoes, spices, bolognese are added. And then vermicelli or pasta is put into it and all this is lightly fried together, after which it falls out into your plate. Taste - you will lick your fingers, especially with beer, even local.

On Friday, grilled sausages were cooked outside. Overeating, especially with local ketchup. Ketchup, by the way, says Heinz. But this one has nothing to do with the Heinz that can be bought in Moscow stores. The ketchup here is awesome.


Places in the dining room, if you look, there are always. But at the busiest time, you can stand for five to ten minutes at the entrance, waiting for a table. It didn't bother me.
It's like that in any restaurant. There are enough appliances, but sometimes you have to look around to see where to get the right plate.
UPD: from August 11, they started the Ramadan holiday. During this time, they do not eat or drink from 7 am to 7 pm. For the life of me, I don’t understand why they moved the start time of dinner from 18 to 19 hours, leaving the rest of the periods unchanged. This created very large queues. By 19:00, hungry people are already standing like a long snake in front of the restaurant. People are starting to run. Some part comes in and takes the tables. When all the tables are occupied, the manager begins to regulate this process, letting in new people only as the seats become free. Sometimes animators did it. That is, everyone who did not get into the first batch waits for at least another 30 minutes until the first ones eat.

Sea.
Since August, the hotel has its own beach. It is located on the outskirts, to the left of Jasmine. There is a bus that goes to the beach quite often. But there isn't much to do there.
In the presence of sun loungers (there are always) under the standard wicker mushrooms, the issuance of towels, dressing room, fresh shower. There is also a bar with music, drinks and snacks. I like the bar. The view is good, shade, breeze.

There is also a volleyball court with a net, but a rather strong wind does not encourage the game. And when there is no wind, lazy burghers still do not want to play in such heat. Ours is not enough. But sometimes people gather. The site, by the way, is periodically watered to cool the sand.

After lunch, the sea begins to ebb. Several sandy islands are formed, on which children play with pleasure. If before low tide near the shore it was just below the knee of the water, then at low tide - ankle-deep. You can actually lie in the water, sunbathing and letting the light swell move your body. Very relaxing.


If you go further behind the first row of dead corals, then after a while it becomes deeper, and then very deep.
But if in the last visit it was a depth of 10-20 meters, now it is much less and the bottom can be seen better. After 50 meters there is a small beautiful coral. Under it lives a hefty blue fish half a meter long. I once happened to see her swim there.

Another 50 meters further there is a fairly large area with live corals. There are also different kinds of fish and fish. Of course, this is not Charm, but at least something. I advise you to swim this area from different directions, because the angle of view and the direction of the sun's rays greatly change the perception.

Animation.
Not particularly stressful. There is a schedule, there is an extensive and standard program at the main pool. I really liked water volleyball and water polo.

There is a mini disco, evening shows from animators or visiting artists. After the show there is a club dance followed by a disco. There are few people - you can pootzhigat. Older children also dance. My 9-year-old was also furious - wow.
The music is almost the same every day. Gets closer to the end.

On Tuesdays, the animators offer to go to the Little Budda club after a disco at the hotel. I drove. Just a nice little club. Standard music. A lot of annealing tourists and tourists. A drink averages between $15 and $30. Better to come ready for fun. Very pleased with the Arab in the toilet, gracefully handing you paper towels after you washed your hands. Impressive.

Aquapark.
Super. There is a great children's section. I would be there all day long. The water is up to my knees.

Lots of slides for adults. Some of them require a specialist. means, for example, a special mattress, an inflatable ring or a huge boot. There are also pairs of circles, so you can ride together. The hills are quite high. Children under the age of 10 are not allowed on them. Define by sight. But with parents they can let even less. A very small seven-year-old rode with us.

He was later recognized and allowed even without his mother. But again, keep your ears open. I once went, not having time to sit on the circle. Employees should control this situation, but by the evening they were just sitting lazily and did not control anything. It's good that we managed to stop and sit down correctly. Slightly-slightly only hit with an elbow.

There is also a wave pool and a river with waves, where you can “raft” in boats with a capacity of 1 to 4 people. Everything is as it should be, with oars. They even offer to wear a life jacket. Went a couple of times with my son. The first time I went alone - already tired : )

Shopping.

If you go from the exit of the hotel to the right, then after 200-300 meters there is a clothing mini-market. There is also a grocery store and a pharmacy. I bought a sun cream in a pharmacy - 50-ku in a pink tube. It's called OCEA Potion SUNCARE. The pharmacist claims (and so it is written) that the cream is American. God knows, but it seems to me that he performs his functions very well.
And one and a half times cheaper than NIVEA with a larger volume. You can take, in short.

About a kilometer (10 minutes walk from the hotel) from the mini market there is a large shopping center SENZO. There are European shops and a large grocery store. Prices are lower than in the mini-market. Near SENZO there are cool paintball fields. The fights can be watched from the outside. Another meter after 100 large karting track. The cards are available in different sizes for different ages. But they drive there - be healthy, so be careful with children. My son and I rode at night, by the light of lanterns - very exciting. Adrenaline - through the roof. The cost is 150 pounds 10 minutes per person. This is about 800 rubles. Not cheap, but the karting track is good. CAREFULLY! To the right of the driver's seat, the map has very hot parts. I managed to get burned before I was warned about it.
