Arrived in Hurghada around 9 am. Met at the airport by Mohamed Anextour. An hour later we were at the hotel. Filling out the paperwork took half an hour, although forty people arrived from the bus! "In a hurry" through the guide turned to the reception with banknotes in forms and five minutes later went to the rooms, the rest were offered to walk until 2 o'clock in the afternoon. My daughter and I were traveling with two women who have been going to resorts for 8 years already, at their suggestion we were not eager to give our hard-earned money. And they didn't regret it. At two o'clock we were given the keys to the room, non-smoking, it was the only request from us. The room turned out to be large and comfortable, on the first floor, which suited us with windows to the garden, and what to see there, we didn’t come here to look through the windows.
We were quite satisfied with the food, something new every day, but for lunch it is better to go early, gourmet dishes (shrimps, clams, crayfish, snails) in limited quantities. We went to breakfast at different times and at 8 and 11 o'clock. We were always welcomed by the service staff in the restaurant, they were simply torn to pieces. After a modest tip, we were already booked a table or found this moment, and while we were choosing dishes, our favorite drinks and cocktails were laid on the table. Thank you very much for this. Always greeted and served. Particular attention is the animators! All young and cheerful, For those who are not shy about anything - just right. Evening animation - so-so, twice repeated in 11 days. There is no variety, and they do not work for the Russian audience, although during the day they communicate with Russians easily and not forcedly. There are animators from Russia. The beach is fenced from the sea with a net, so there is no "extra" living creatures there. The lagoon is without waves, on the right it is shallow for children, on the left it is deeper... There are many excursions, but I think they are expensive! Almost all for $ 50. Evening watering the grass and insect poison was a little annoying, but this is if you return to the room after midnight. Not much about the bars on the beach. There is a bar only for the ultra included. If you don’t make a fuss, they give you any drinks, but ask you not to sit on sofas in the wrong area. It's not very pleasant, but not annoying, all the same prices vary greatly. I really liked diving and the water park, but I got very tired from excursions to the "ruins" and the ruins of antiquity, and almost nothing was left in my memory, except for boring traders, and the day was lost, fatigue and back pain. (This is my opinion) The bus back to the airport filed two hours before the plane with a mandatory check-in at the supermarket, all registration was completed in 10 minutes, so I still had to sit at the airport. In general, the trip and the hotel is very satisfied.
