Haven't written a great review in a long time.
But this hotel was amazing.
For multiple visits to Egypt, until now, I had a chance to visit Marsa Alam.
We mainly go to EG in winter, and we understand that it blows in Mars in winter.
And here, how to say, there would be no happiness, so misfortune helped, or rather, the prices for Charm that soared to insanity. And when choosing for $ 400 per person a week of frankly bad Sharm or good Mars Alam, we decided to take a chance. And not an ounce of regret about it.
SO. . .
The ticket cost us $ 1050 for three weeks from Kyiv.
The flight is magnificent, early morning there, late evening back.
Azur flight, transfer, check-in all went smoothly. I would like to make a point. We arrived at the hotel at 8 am, and were ready to wait until 1400 check-in. And we were pleasantly surprised when the keys to the room were given to us immediately. Moreover, all our wishes were taken into account.
ROOM
There is nothing to tell.
Everything is standard. Refrigerator, TV, air conditioning, safe.
Everything worked.
Soap-snouts replenished regularly.
TERRITORY
Here, too, in general, everything is standard for Egyptian hotels.
Moderately everything is green.
The only thing that surprised me was a large number of citrus trees with fruits.
Two pools. They say heated. Didn't check.
Jacuzzi, pool bar, beach bar.
ANIMATION AND RECREATION
As for a hotel where the nearest civilization is not one kilometer away, this issue could be closed more thoroughly. The animators are also quite nice. But entertainment is organized by pretty mediocre ones. In the evening, after dinner, the singer constantly sings. The repertoire is different. If he sees that the audience is warmed up, then he starts a disco or a romantic. In a word, norms.
NUTRITION
I give it a solid four.
Nothing to get to. And meat and seafood, and desserts, and a selection of fruits. Everything is fine.
Alcohol is like for Egypt, and you can drink it. Tight, but possible.
And one more thing about alcohol.
There is no strong alcohol in the bar of the central restaurant. If you are a fan of the Slavic tradition to drink hard and have a good bite, then keep this nuance in mind.
SERVICE
Here is a solid five.
Here's everything from the janitor to the receptionist, all bunnies. Any issue is resolved within five minutes.
We have a jammed safe. They told the cleaner about the problem, three minutes later there was a knock on the door, the security guards came and everything was decided. The waiter who pushed the fresh juices around the hall strained a little.
Witnessed an incident involving him. It turns out that someone has a late check-out and at 1.00 you rent a room, they don’t cut off the bracelet. And people naturally go to dinner. This waiter, with a smile on his face, asks about the upcoming flight, and then, when people have already had lunch, he claims that lunch after check-out costs 200 pounds per person. And people (who don't want scandal) pay.
So if you have a late flight and you will go to dinner, then either dress in beach clothes, or do not admit to him that you have already moved out.
BEACH AND SEA
There is no praise here.
The outer dump is lively and interesting.
The main thing is not to be lazy to sail at least 200 meters in any direction. And not in a hurry.
And another nuance... When the red flag hangs, you can swim. Only the lifeguard asked us in English if we were confident in our abilities and asked us not to sail very far. When two reds weigh, they are not allowed.
Yes, and you do not really want to climb into the water, since the wave height is quite significant.
Catching a cow in the bay.
Locals say that three individuals are rummaging around in the bay. And of course they don't sit still.
The bay is not small, and in order to cross these animals, you need to roam around the bay for hours in the hope that your paths will cross. And here it is for good luck.
We were lucky on the first day in the evening.
Then, for eight days, how many did not go like this anymore and did not meet. But while we were catching the dugong, I had seen enough of all the maritime curiosities, I can’t tell you.
Turtles are even tired. According to my observations there are three of them. The eagle stingray is so beautiful that it takes your breath away. The black stingray is also interesting. Guitarist, big tuna, barracuda, reef sharks. It was a little scary. In the bumps in the northern part there is a large moray eel. In a word, it was not boring.
The beach is like a beach. Big enough sunbeds.
TOTAL
The combination of three factors, a good hotel, a great sea and a calm price, puts your vacation here at the level of the jackpot. ))
Before the trip to this hotel, I was already thinking of leaving Egypt, because for 12 times he managed to get pretty fed up with me.
But the sea (more precisely, marine life) here struck me to the core, and opened a second wind to visiting Egypt. Now if Egypt is only Marsa Alam.
A few words about the cons. Shopping in this region is like insanity designed for complete fools.
When you get three bucks for two bucks for a toothpaste that they give you in Sharm, they charge you three bucks a piece, and they don’t bargain... how can you not get angry here.
Weather. Coldly. It's cold in winter. no matter how cool. Most likely I will not go here in the winter.
Everything else is great.
