Rested 3 families - 9 adults from 14.12-28.12. I must say right away that they paid $ 500 per person for 2 weeks, you can’t rest in any Crimea for that kind of money, therefore it’s simply ugly to write about the minuses. But I will write for those who buy for aqua-moon parks - 5 * and pay real money. In our case, everything is almost perfect, but...
We flew in the mood that nothing could spoil the mood, we are resting for the 5th year in Egypt in winter, but in Sharm. The weather killed it - the sea was stormy out of 14 days - 7 for sure... Immediately the cold was terrible - we went in jackets. Only in the last three days the sea has calmed down, because the most important thing for which we went, the sea, did not please us 100%. Although the sea is not bad - the water is warm - 24-25 * - they themselves measured it - and the reef for Hurghada even with livestock - I managed to see a reef shark swimming by, a snake, a dangling moray eel under a red flag). The beach is large, there is a bar, there is music - the sunbeds really had to be carried in the sun so as not to freeze under the shade of fungi that cover the entire beach.
Let's get back to the settlement - I have never seen anything like this in any hotel. Immediately an unpleasant type began to show that she would give money, but I don’t care where to spend the night, I didn’t come to sit in the room, I pretended not to notice. And then it began - in the outskirts they gave a double room with a cot, although a triple was booked... No reception went, but there are no free rooms like... yes, yes... the hotel-city of the dead is practically empty at that moment... I raised both the representatives of Pegasus and the guestrelation to their feet and as soon as I didn’t try to find the “SHEF” and threats of complaints, the boss is sleeping, you can’t wake him up... and in general we don’t understand Russian. OK, my daughter speaks English fluently, I had to understand . . I stood there 4 !!! ! hours, until they promised to relocate by the next day . . So they sat for a day in a cold, cramped room, with a broken safe and soap dishes, a grim air conditioner overlooking the neighboring wall and a broken palm tree.

Food is like food, it makes me sick for 3 days, + for potatoes, it was) usually I’m too lazy to clean it and don’t serve it - I don’t eat rice, raw pasta, beef died in retribution for 50 years, I don’t eat this kind of fish either, because chicken -potatoes and vegetables for 2 weeks-hello) No desserts!!! ! Some biscuits, I was very strangled - Egypt has always been famous for local sweets. Here they didn’t smell - a little bit of puddings diluted sadness. There are few fruits, but melon-apple salad and oranges suited me. Pancakes are not tasty (((Thick, half-baked, on the water and no in general.
Lunapark paid - we did not have children, because only for furniture. The water park is disappointing. The water is icy, and he worked for a couple of hours before lunch, when it was warm at sea, and after lunch a shadow was already falling everywhere, it was unrealistically cold even when wet to climb the hills. The elevator was promised, but did not work) I, having swept from each hill once in 2 days, got very sick and at home for 2 weeks I can’t cure terrible bronchitis, so only walruses swim there. The heated wave pool was measured - 21 * - it's very cold for me.
Animations are nil. For 2 weeks, no one ever approached our crowd and called us somewhere - girls of 16 years old were very upset. One stuck into the player for 2 weeks, the other read 3 books of 700 pages during the rest. Animation seems to be successfully playing the "find me" game. Well, one point can be put to the DJ - the music was present on the beach) And there were discos in a neighboring hotel, but the animators were there during the day with fire - because boring, drunken our brother danced and a few ladies) We went a couple of times, but it's smoky, at least hang an ax. Speaking of smoking - it killed on the spot that it is written in the description - they do not smoke in the hotel... Well, the hotel itself is a solid smoking area, it killed me. The central bar, where it was possible to somehow brighten up the boredom, was a utterly smoky room, then clothes were aired on the balcony, but they, in fact, lived there all 2 weeks, the contents of all the suitcases gradually migrated to the balcony, because everywhere is smoky! Alcohol is vile, as always, nothing surprising and new. But the coffee is very good, and tea, by the way, too, both hibiscus and black.
We went to a nearby hotel for an animation program - well, amateur performances, moreover, in some kind of cold undigested pool, this is a type of show arena. Everyone sits on the floor on mats with straightened legs in front of them - I have not seen this before. Continuous dancing... In the bar of a neighboring hotel, as it turned out at the end of the holiday, an Arab sings well. But it is also very smoky there, the bar is small and our brother is not supposed to take drinks there, but you can pretend to be a resident of serenity beach...

Excursions were taken from the beach boy - Semi, a small, thin, excellent fellow. Luxor for 55 bucks - plus 10 bucks for a banana island paid extra - informative, guide and guide are excellent, I liked it! So look for Seven and boldly ride. On a yacht, the weather did not allow sailing to the island, but we were there 5 years ago... so, you can out of boredom. We went to the Old City for fruit - bargain a taxi for $ 10 one way easily, bought bags-cotton-silver-fruit-tea-oils - well, we are lovers) We also went to the local Senzomall supermarket for $ 5 - shopping in boutiques in Egypt - something unusual)
Well, as a conclusion, I’ll say - I love Sharm more - it’s warmer and more fun, this hotel is boring for me, the sea and the water park were let down because of the weather, so everything could be better, but for such a price we got enough sleep, saw a piece of summer, turned off thoughts about problems - rest - do not work)
And the most unpleasant moment - during the eviction, the suitcases already packed for money !! ! the local security tore it up and twisted it, the locks on some of the bags were torn off . . no one was going to repackage it... I have never seen anything like this! They were motivated by the fact that they have the right to check whether towels, glasses are being taken out, whether something else has been stolen... Allegedly, some Kazakh woman stole 10 rolls of toilet paper !!! ! And now they check often... but not always. This is generally chaos, of course... disgusting!
Once again I repeat - information for those who pay rather big money, I would look for something better. Well, if it’s cheap and you’re not very spoiled, go-walk-swim-have fun. Have a nice holiday everyone. I answer questions)
Still) Wi-fi is disgusting, only at 7 am you can go. And I got tired of carrying towels from the pools - there is no exchange of towels on the beach! especially wet in the evening drag annoying
