Help me choose a hotel.
I would like to choose a hotel for a trip for the New Year!
Where there are fewer Russians, a lot of sea and the food is normal. Please tell me. Thank you in advance.

You won’t find a hotel where you can’t find fewer Russians. And if you still go, then there will be even more Russians there.
Seriously, look at the "Brayka Bay Reef Resort", we really liked it there, it was three weeks ago, I don't think that anything has changed dramatically there, the sea remains in the same place, with its bay where big waves do not swim , with its marine life. The food there was simply gorgeous, although they involuntarily overheard a telephone conversation on the beach - "The food is average, but we don't go hungry." Counted the number of desserts for dinner -38. At this time of the year, swimming in the sea, in my opinion, is more comfortable in a wetsuit. If you don’t have one, you can rent it at the dive center located on the hotel premises. Have a good rest!

And what other hotels are there with a bay?

Is the sea warmer in sharm or not. I was there several times, but only in November, and in the winter, somehow, I don’t even know if it’s worth it. The main criterion for the trip is, of course, the sea and its inhabitants. I heard a lot about Marsa Alam that the sea there is unusual, compared to charm.

Marsa Alam lies much further south. Accordingly, it is warmer there. When we left the hotel at 2 a.m. for Hurghada airport, the guys were in T-shirts, and when we got off the bus at the airport at 6 a.m., everyone put on jackets together - it was much colder than Mars.
But even when relaxing in November, I didn’t feel that buzz when you relax in September-October. It’s still fresh, and the daylight hours are small. I swam in the sea in a wetsuit.

Is Baraiko divided somehow by sectors of settlement or not? And what about drinking water there?

Can you tell me how much it costs to rent a wetsuit?
I mean there in the hotel.

I don’t know how in a hotel with sectors, the two of us lived in a standard room, someone lived in a two-room suite (dad, mom and their two girls). There were no problems with drinking water. Two bottles were put in the refrigerator and everything was replenished as needed. Free. Read reviews on this forum about this hotel. The only thing is, take special candles against flies with you, you will light them on the beach. I don’t know how much it costs to rent a wetsuit, I personally have mine, individual. If you want to know, I can give you the address of the dive center, they are Germans, but they understand English perfectly, if there are problems with the language, I can ask, German is my second native. Fins, a vest, if I'm not mistaken, 5 euros per day. Probably the same amount and hydrik.
The reefs there are gorgeous both on the right and on the left, but I don’t know what you prefer, maybe it’s super for me, but for you it’s death.
Yes, and one more detail. They ask you not to come to dinner in shorts and flip flops, because.
e-dress code exists. They would also like to see a decently dressed company for dinner, but this is impossible to comply with, because many people go to the restaurant directly from the beach, and return to it after dinner.

Sorry, there was a mistake.
For lunch, too, they would like more decent clothes.

Thank you very much, I will take all the advice into service.
аватар Luba.5
And what are these candles against flies, some special ones, where can I buy?
аватар elenako
In Thailand, they are saved from them in the jungle, we sold them in the Metro, but I don’t know anything about their effectiveness. The flies on the beach really get it, although you are going at the end of January, it may already be cold for them, we took a fumigator into the room, but we also found a mosquito. True, one, but people wrote that there are many of them.
аватар Luba.5
Thank you very much, we want to go there for the New Year.
Thanks again.

Flies in Egypt, I think there are everywhere.
We were in the interconti in charm and they were present there too. They didn't bother me much.

As for drinking water: all water is bottled for drinking. There are almost no lakes and rivers in Egypt (the Nile does not count), therefore, special installations for desalination of sea water are used for desalination. Such water is considered technical, but it is absolutely normal, it is found in the water supply. The water is excellent, my dandruff disappeared in a week! But you shouldn’t drink, they even recommend brushing your teeth with bottled water, although I cleaned with tap water, the effect is exactly the same, there are no poisonings, there is no taste or smell.
About flies and mosquitoes. There are almost no mosquitoes, I have never used an emulsifier. There were no flies in the room, but on the beach after 5-10 minutes they begin to get it. Stubborn flies: drive away - in a second they sit on the same place! I noticed that there are more flies on palm trees, less on open, blown areas of the beach, where the breeze is stronger

My friend has been to "Braik" twice, she really liked the hotel. And the reef, she said, is amazing! And we were with her in "Fantasy" at the end of November - she, comparing the reefs, said that the reef was better in "Bryk", and the guys from the local dive center confirmed this. Although we really liked Fantasia - a nice cozy hotel, we had enough food, pleasant unobtrusive staff, and the reef is quite beautiful: we saw a turtle, stingrays, lionfish and a bunch of all sorts of fish and corals ...
PS the flies on the beach really get it ... I didn’t even know that there were candles from them ...

I recommend Resta Reef Resort 4*
90% of vacationers are Italians
respectively, and the kitchen to a greater extent
Italian oriented
same as animation
reef and underwater world beautiful
