Two days ago I returned from the hotel "Amarante". I will write a review for future visitors or those who are now choosing a hotel.
BEACH. The biggest pain. We traveled via Tez Tour whose catalog stated that the beach was 15-20 min. walk at the Gafy Resource hotel, our tour operator told us the same thing. Actually the beach is 15 km! ! from Amarante, since the contract with Gafy Resource was terminated 2 months ago. The director of Amarante assured us that the operators were informed about this, the tour operators say the opposite. The guide from Tez Tour Nadir was brief saying "the owner n…d". Buses to the beach go in an hour, or rather mini minibuses, you need to take tickets at the reception, but there are not enough tickets for everyone. We were only able to get "tickets" for the last 4 days of our stay there. The minibus had to be taken by storm or take a taxi. (I'll talk about taxis later). The beach itself is terrible is not the word, it's just a bay from the sea with boats, stink and dirty water. It felt like you were on a lake. We went from our beach to a wild beach, the sea is beautiful there, there are fish and corals, but there is incredible dirt around and after 11.00 it is impossible to stay there because of the heat (there are no umbrellas and sun loungers). So anyway, I had to return to the miracle beach from the hotel, by the way, only soft drinks are included on the beach and for lunch an old bun with a very suspicious piece of meat.
TOTAL! It takes 50-60 minutes to get to the beautiful sea, and you can stay there for no more than 2 hours.
SERVICE. A lot of rudeness. I am a calm person, but I lacked patience. Bartenders are rude in a wild way, they can let you teach manners, although they themselves do not observe them. On the beach, the masseur Tito said to his face that Russians and Ukrainians are donkeys, girls of obscene behavior (to put it mildly), that we are beggars, etc. After I complained about him, I heard threats from him in my direction. There is no dysentery. Disposable cups are simply rinsed, leaving traces of lipstick, etc. My friend even got herpes. Mosquitoes and cockroaches are not poisoned, allergic people were hell there. Yes, and cockroaches there are not like ours, much more, and it is very unpleasant to find them in clothes and bed.
NUMBERS. There are better rooms, but we got a terrible one. The curtains were full of holes, the blankets and the bed were stained. Although the loader assured that "Estimate a good number, give me 5 dollars"
ANIMATION. In the pool, water polo in the afternoon, aerobics on the beach, and in the evening a stupid show program, after 23.00 the hotel is silent.
NUTRITION. There is variety, but you can only eat certain foods. The food often smelled of rot and bleach, there were practically no fruits and vegetables, whoever managed to do it was well done. Alcohol is unbearably diluted, everything had to be bought in Duty Free. So even if you decide to go to Amarante All Inclusive, you should not take it.
TAXI. They make a fool of you, you say to get to one place, they take you to another place and demand money, it’s all over the place. Do not let yourself be deceived and humiliated, threaten the tourist police, believe me, they work there. Personally, at my suggestion, one taxi driver was deported from Sharm. And deportation from the tourist zone is a hungry family and hopelessness, since the deportees are blacklisted and will never be able to work in any tourist zone, and this is their only normal income.
TOTAL. Do not go there, it will be a waste of time, money and nerves. You can find a decent hotel for the same money, at least with a normal beach. This is far from 3-4 stars, in Sharm there are C grades much better than Amarante. I am very surprised at the good reviews, most likely they are written by the tour operators themselves in order to merge these terrible tours for you.
