My husband and I have been dreaming about Mars for a long time. And now, finally, an offer from Feeriya that is suitable for the price - and we fly by direct charter from Kyiv!
Managed to grab the last direct flight to Marsa Alam! In addition to our 12 days of rest, we received a gift - one more day (free), because. back Extravaganza was no longer lucky and we flew with tourists from Join Up!
I want to immediately express my gratitude to Taran Natalya, whose review was studied in detail and was useful and 1000% truthful
About the hotel in Natalia's review it is written in detail and I would only like to add a little from myself:
1) I would not call the hotel outwardly attractive, rather it is different than beach hotels, in which we are all used to relaxing in Egypt and Turkey. It fits more into the urban category with its beach (great sandy and uncrowded) and free delivery from the hotel to the beach and back by car. This is a hotel to take a break from hiking and trips around the bays in search of stunning marine life and magnificent coral reefs. Hotel-home! Everything in it is home-like, simple, clean, tasty and comfortable. Foreigners have a rest in it with pleasure!
2) It’s impossible not to say about the staff! A small close-knit team of like-minded people who do their job with soul! Thanks to everyone for their responsiveness, attention, smiles and kindness! latte, cappuccino, hot chocolate - WOW! And this is in a 3-star hotel! Free Wi-Fi - pictures just flew away! And this is in a 3-star hotel! linen - and this is in a 3-star hotel!
The conclusion is this: you need to be prepared for a trip to this hotel - not because it is not good - the HOTEL is excellent, but there is no usual hotel infrastructure attached to the hotel, it's as if you came to Spain, took a hotel in Barcelona and combined a beach holiday with an excursion , and in the hotel they rested from overwhelming emotions. Believe that if you wish and having a bit of adventurism, there are plenty of places to explore in the area! And therefore - read reviews and set priorities for yourself. If you need a hotel with a chic territory, pools under palm trees and animation - you are in Port Ghalib hotels, where there is an eternal holiday, beaches filled with people and constant parties. From the hotel to Port Ghalib - 10 minutes under the palm trees along the illuminated road. In the evenings, after dinner, we went for a walk there, went to the territory of five hotels, exploring and looking, or went to a residential area to shops for locals, including an excellent vegetable store with excellent mangoes!
We went for the beauties of the Sea of Mars, which we got. Well, as a bonus - accommodation in a sincere, calm, clean and satisfying (30 people vacationing, almost only foreigners), hotel house!
3) The hotel is strategically located flawlessly! To the beach by car 5-7 minutes, to the Marsa Mubarak bay - 40 minutes on foot through the excitingly alluring desert, past the Ferrouz Hotel, located on the shore close to the bay. We went to the bay 4 times. Unspeakably lucky: in addition huge green turtles we swam with him - Mr. Dugong! This is something!
On the other side of the hotel - you need to go around Port Ghalib on the left - if you look at the sea - and go even further to the left along the sea - a magnificent bay with beautiful coral and magnificent marine life. They say that dolphins also come, we didn’t get caught.
There were days on our beach when we were practically together! Everything is yours and for you (including the bar). Bottled and canned beer, decent, for a couple of days it was somehow super tasty. With no restrictions! Alcoholic drinks, coffee. Sometimes from the apparatus, sometimes soluble with milk. There are no snacks. We never got hungry.
The reef is beautiful, the Coral is endless, and no one whistles and tries to stop you from exploring the underwater world. You swim along the coral and above it in the direction of the Marina Lodge beach and further until you have enough strength and desire towards the pontoon of the Furrows Hotel. On the way, endless huge flocks of large fish (I haven’t seen such schools in Sharm), the bottom is littered with hundreds of largest shells, former houses of giant mollusks, In one swim, we somehow met four turtles in turn (these are not the huge ones that are in Marsa Mubarak Bay, somewhere up to a meter in diameter, but CUTIES! ). In general, the turtle lives constantly opposite the boat lying on the shore, and swam in the waters of our beach.
CONCLUSIONS: DREAMS COME TRUE. We got everything we wanted from Marsa and the hotel fit perfectly into the concept: "inexpensive and cheerful! ". The choice of a hotel with a beach located in the bay was 100% correct, because the winds in Mars are not frail, but the sea has always been available for us! The opportunity to walk around for free and see what vacationers pay money for in other hotels is cool. Feeling young and free again like the wind blowing in the boundless desert is worth a lot!
