Usually we spend our holidays in Europe, this time the choice fell on Egypt. Our travel agent offered us several hotels to choose from, among which was Concorde Sport and the choice fell on him. We were interested in certain dates because the child had a birthday and wanted to fit into a certain budget. What can I say, we did not lose : ) We were lucky with the hotel and the price was more than acceptable. Then I followed the prices - only more expensive. Before the trip, I didn’t sleep at night, read reviews about how bad everything is, what bad food, and everything is really bad. But what can I say, those who say correctly write: the main mood with which you are driving and everything will be fine, and those who look for flaws will find them everywhere. I'll try to keep it short and informative : )

ARRIVAL


At 7 am we were at the hotel. Children were allowed to have breakfast, adults to drink tea / coffee, the waiter brought buns and croissants. At 11 o'clock they put on bracelets. Thank you very much for not having to wait two hours : )

ACCOMMODATION
The Sport Hotel is located on the 2nd line, it takes 7 minutes to walk to the hotel on the first line of the front, right past the stables, where you can feed the horses with bananas and buns from breakfast : ) You can take a bus that runs every 10-15 minutes and departs from the main entrance and gets to the front in 3-4 minutes. During the day, a very pleasant man drives, if you run and don’t have time, he will definitely wait : ) He loves children, in general, everyone there loves children, they smile, they can pat on the head, ask for their names.

NUTRITION

You definitely won’t stay hungry, yes, it may seem monotonous, but for those 8 nights and 9 days that we were there, it’s how much you need to eat (and we ate a lot) to get tired of everything.
There was red Ukrainian borscht, green borscht, chicken soup, constantly different mashed soups, meat beef, chicken, fish in different variations stewed, baked, in pieces and whole, potatoes in different versions, pilaf, whoever liked it was sure to have a specific oriental food, pasta is always different, pizza is very tasty, a lot of sweets for breakfast are different puffs, cakes for lunch, dinner, too, or cakes or oriental sweets. Sports can eat at the Italian restaurant on the beach. There is a smaller choice and drink at lunch, even tea, you have to ask to bring. Waiter. Breakfast includes brewed tea and coffee.

In Sport, only UPI or Pepsi juices, Sprite at the bar, water, tea and coffee from a machine, fresh juice for $ 2 (few people took it). Choice of tea: green, black, mint, chamomile, hibiscus.

If the food ends up somewhere in the containers (I don’t know how to say it differently), then they immediately put the same new full one. So the food didn't run out.
At the reception in the bar there are salted nuts : )

BEACH


Three-level, a lot of people are resting and sunbathing on the upper levels. Those who want to swim or those with children are downstairs. Sunbeds can be asked to bring special workers, that is, find yourself a free place, for example, by the water and ask to bring. Again, no one asked for any money, on the last day we left everyone a chocolate bar, which they were very happy about.

There is really not much space, but somehow there is enough for everyone - both for the front and for sports, there is even a place for animation. If you want a large sandy beach - then yes, not here. We just live on the Sea of ​ ​ Azov ourselves, so we have enough wide sandy beach. But there is no such sea! The fish swim right under your feet. You can not feed, but some feed. . The entrance is a small area without stones, as well as stones. It is better to buy corals, my husband bought himself for $ 5 in a store near Soho, but my children and I did without them.
The pontoon is short, the reef is beautiful, lifeguards sit and watch all the time - one is high on a special chair, the other is at the edge of the pontoon. They whistle often. Here on the shore you can order a dive. Like $25 for 15 minutes, but friends bargained for $50 for half an hour for 2x.
A bar is open on the beach from 10 o'clock. Where can I get ice cream (mango, vanilla, chocolate and strawberry) and Fanta drinks, Pepsi and various spirits. From 9 you can drink juices and water. Just before our departure, they were finishing repairs on the beach in a new bar in the form of a boat.

ANIMATION

The guys are cheerful, sociable, everyone speaks Russian. At 10 o'clock on the beach they announce the program for the day and go around saying hello, inviting vacationers to an evening show or dance. At 10.30 on the beach, exercises, on Monday 11, Thursday, the Olympic Games, at 12.30 games, in the pool, water aerobics, water volleyball. In sports, they also exercise and play in the pool, they also play regular volleyball.
In the evening in Sport at 8 a pianist plays at the reception, at 9 their singer sings a very pleasant man. Then he goes to sing at the Front. All discos in the Front.

ROOM & CLEANING


The beds are good, wide, the mattresses are solid, the bed is clean. Plumbing, yes, beaten up, but when you only sleep in the room, wash yourself and watch TV for an hour, then this is completely uncritical. We had everything working. There are channels in Russian - and even Russia 24.

Every day they left either a dollar or a chocolate bar - they cleaned it up well, but dust gathered around the safe - they didn’t wipe it, shampoos were added regularly, the bed was changed if we put a card, then they started making 1 swan out of towels, and when they put both a dollar and a chocolate bar - they made us elephant : ) the children were delighted.

Every day they left 3 bottles of water of 1.5 liters, apparently by the number of beds in the room. When leaving, there were a few bottles left - not to take with you.
Tea bags, coffee and sugar were added every day. There was a kettle in the room.

STAFF

Thank you very much! Sooo nice guys (yes, the workers are only men): polite, friendly, smiling. We don’t drink alcohol, at first they came up and asked, then they stopped. Dirty dishes were removed promptly. No one van dollar asked even once. As far as I read reviews about other hotels, this is important. Selectively, the child sometimes wore a chocolate bar to one of the workers, he immediately smiled broadly and began to thank him very much : )

POOLS

Warm pools in the Sport and cold ones in the Front, even for children. Therefore, after dinner, those who like to swim in the pool and slides - everyone goes to Sports, you can see by green bracelets, they are blue in sports. Very warm direct hot water in the children's pool is simply gorgeous. They work until 5 o'clock, at half past five they were slowly asked to leave. Slides work from 12 to 4 hours. The lifeguard is watching all the time.
The bar serves fries, hamburgers and burgers from 1 to 3. The potatoes are good, but the burgers are not.

SAUNA and JACUZZI

Fine. It warms well, boils well and children are allowed in, although it is written that it is impossible for children under 12 years old. Inside there is a toilet, shower, changing room, towels are given, there are sunbeds.

KIDS CLUB


Both Sport and Front have an excellent children's club. I don’t remember the morning schedule, but in the afternoon from 3 to 5 and in the evening from 8 to 10. In the morning I know that you can leave the children and they will be brought to the main restaurant by one o’clock. The girls are very kind and play with the children, they look after them well. There are very few children in sports, there are many children in the front. I express my deep gratitude to the director of the children's club of the Front for allowing me to spend my son's birthday in their club. In sports, I arranged for a gift cake to be brought to the kids club in the front, everything was beautifully decorated with balloons and flowers. There were many children, they danced, congratulated the child and blew out the candles, ate the cake.
Everything seems simple, but very nice. The child is happy. Thank you!

NAAMA BAY

Every laziness in the morning at the reception in the morning you can sign up for a bus to Naama Bay - for 8 hours there and back at 22.30, or at 22 like there and 00.30 back.

Adviсe:

There is a Carefor store in Naama Bay, but it is called Carrefour, it is like looking at McDonald's with your face - you go to the left to the end, then past the letters "I love charm" and also to the right to the end, then to the left and there will be a store, there are fixed prices . But the mangoes there are bad, it’s better to take it from your hands, you can even have a guy in the “Thank God you came” store, as soon as you got off the bus, They are there for a dollar and a half and are delicious.

As you move to the right of the bus there will be a funny man who has a lot of sweets. You can take sea pebbles from him as a gift, a small jar for $ 1, a large jar for $ 2. Take more! At the airport, such a large package for 10 dollars. And nowhere is cheaper.
Next to this little man with sweets on the left, there is also a little man : ) he has good prices for souvenirs and he still throws off well. Good price for plates, cups, oils and kitties.

OTHER

Internet wi-fi works at the reception, near the pool, and so I guess. that in all the rooms that are next to the reception.

The territory is greener in the Front, but to be honest in Sport it seemed to us more comfortable, because the rooms are located in a semicircle around the pools, and not scattered throughout the territory.

The toilets are clean and there are fresh flowers everywhere.

Restaurants have hand sanitizer everywhere.

TOTAL

I met a woman on the beach who says that she has been to Egypt hundreds of times and each time in different hotels, but this time she returned for the second time : ) We would very much like to visit there a second time and return to Sport as soon as possible.
