Айда в Роял Ida to Royal

Rested with my husband from 02.10 to 09.10. We flew with NORDWIND airline. Regular Boeing. I have been to Egypt 4 times before. I must say right away - the hotel is a solid 4k. With a chic claim to 5 stars. No matter what hotels you have been to before, all inclusive is only open until 23.00-24.00, all drinks at the disco are always paid. Drinks are here until 02.00. -03.00. And take it to discos - I don’t want to. Here, gentlemen, they write that the hotel is disgusting. I will allow myself to disagree, because the latter prevails in the price-quality ratio. In the new buildings, the only advantages are newer furniture, and plasma on the wall. In the old ones they wrote, they say, BUGS, ANTS... blah blah blah... First of all, flying into the room, I threw back all the bedding in search of bedbugs... oops, no. Next, ants. Of course there are, but the problem is solved within 15 minutes after calling the reception. Cleaning is really on the level, despite our forgetfulness about tips. And it makes absolutely no sense to bash comrades from the reception for a room. We were issued in 2 minutes in excellent 1201.
About the sea. A normal sea, even if desired, corals can be reached by first peeling off all the legs. BUT, to be more sociable, then on the very first day you can find out that on the neighboring (left) beach “stella makadi” there is an awesome pier (albeit a long one) from which you immediately plunge into all the beauties of the Red Sea. The only negative is that it is better to go there along the line of the sea, because there is not a very hospitable welcome for vacationers from other hotels. Yes, as people write, “take bread to feed the fish, ” don’t even think about it, because when feeding they are very bitey, and if you give bread to the kids, the fish can bite by the finger, and drag the offspring to the hospital. If only to leave the pier, and then away from the floating backs of vacationers. Oh, and another minus - sunbeds on the beach. Yes, you really have to score at 6 in the morning. But then we decided that we were not one of those people who could not get out of the sea and would not be too lazy to stomp from the pool to the pier on the neighboring beach 2-3 times a day from the pool. Yes, and the breeze on the beach, I tell you, sometimes oyooshenkoyyo.
Next is FOOD. Believe me, I have seen many buffets, but here I did not even feel sorry for the children, who usually have nothing to eat. Here, even the children had something to eat, and even adults... No, of course, you can understand the grief of those vacationers who lacked QUAILS on the table... but alas... they didn’t go there for the money. It was really not very good with fruit... But green oranges, pears - it was delicious. Guava is not my taste, sliced ​ ​ melons floating in something - too. I never cease to be amazed at people who carry mountains of dates in two plates. And I don’t think that anyone at home has an omelette, and buns, and various types of cereal, yogurt, sausages, meatballs for breakfast....And a hell of a lot more. At lunch, the soups are of course peculiar, but you can do without them... I liked it... a la shawarma, most importantly, pour more abundant sauce. There is always pasta, pizza, different meats... in general, you will not starve. Moreover, between the main meals you can always find a hamburger, fries. Yes, I don’t really want to eat in such a heat. And about the fact that lunch is on the beach, YES it’s hot, but you don’t be lazy and come from the beach in 15 minutes and sit on a chair in the shade, so you have a cozy place not occupied in the heat. Themed dinners… also abound. And the ice cream is amazingly delicious. Juices are served everywhere only guava. And in the bar at the reception you will be poured both an orange and a pineapple.

And, about the shops: everything is fine in the hotel, but masks from $ 25. Being sociable comrades, we learned that on the territory of the neighboring stela (security will take you) there are a lot of different shops, where we bought masks for $ 6. And if you go this stele completely, there is a chalet further on. Before one of them is the inscription BAZAR. So there are 5 magnets for $ 2.
Animation - well, this is a separate conversation... because I saw animators only on volleyball on the beach and on the water in the pool. And from me personally HUGE THANKS TO THEM for their unobtrusiveness. It's very frustrating when they try to do their job with a bang and beat you up trying to take a break.
About excursions... well, if you haven't been anywhere, of course go. The only thing I see no reason to go to Hurghada, such as for souvenirs, because in the shops described above the prices are the same. And if you rested and did not have time to buy - it does not matter, because at the airport you will find everything the same.
In general, EVERYONE HAPPY REST!! ! And do not look for flaws plz.
There will be questions - contact.
