We are avid fans of Egypt, and especially Sharm El Sheikh. We rested in Coral Beach Resort Montazah for the first time, before that we were in Baron, Reef Oasis Blue Bay, Reef Oasis beach. This time, due to the economic situation, we chose a more budget hotel and did not regret it at all. Chose Coral Beach Resort Montazah based on reviews and location. Interested in a beautiful coral reef, decent service and normal food. The hotel is fully consistent with the description and reviews on leading sites.
Let's analyze everything point by point. Territory. The hotel is divided into two parts. The first part is the first line, where small buildings, such as bungalows, are located, the second part is across the road, the second line, the reception building is located there, respectively, the main building, a restaurant, a large swimming pool and actually all the active life of the hotel takes place there. Everything is moderately green, very well maintained, perfect cleanliness. The pools have clean water and a heated pool. Very cozy. There are bars by the main pool and on the beach. We got a standard room on the second line. They offered a room closer to the sea for an additional fee, but we still preferred to stay where we originally planned. The standard room is quite spacious, with a large panoramic window overlooking partly the pool, partly green spaces. Such a typical garden view. Furniture and plumbing were in good condition, we know from experience that the cost of a hotel often does not match the condition of the room. So once burned in Reef Oasis beach. Here the standard turned out to be in a more decent condition. Cleaning was mediocre, but daily, the dust was not wiped even once. The cleaner once figured out an elephant and a crocodile from blankets and towels, but we asked him not to do this again.
Beach. The same that applied to the territory can be said about the beach. Clean, a little windy, the entrance to the sea is only on the pontoon. At the same time, four rows of sunbeds are in fair condition. Between them there is a fairly large space for the passage and games of children, if someone has them. You can swim only after descending from the pontoon, as I already wrote. A reef of incredible beauty, about the same as that of the Baron, while you can swim both to the right and to the left. Left is definitely more interesting. In the direction of the Melia hotels, the reef gradually becomes less lively. We had a complete kingdom of colors and fish. Whom they just didn’t see: Napoleons, stingrays, moray eels, turtles, once they even saw an octopus in the depths. I also liked the fact that near the coral wall you can see the bottom, and not a dark abyss, so a lot more fish swim up and, accordingly, you can also see almost all of them.
Nutrition. It cannot be said that food is the trump card of the hotel. It is good, quality products, everything is fresh, but does not shine with variety. A very familiar set of foods for breakfast (sausages, pancakes, scrambled eggs, yogurt and cereal), lunch (soup, fish or meat, chicken, rice, pizza, pasta, etc. ), dinner (sometimes theme nights, but still the same only in a different form). I liked cakes, soufflé s, cakes, pasta was also normal, as there were also decent Italians in the hotel. And so the contingent is traditional: Russians, Ukrainians, Belarusians, a few Englishmen and Germans - the first group, Italians - the second. Animation is also designed for these two groups. Drinks are weak. Good beer, there is still coffee from the machines, everything else does not seem appetizing.
Entertainment. The main entertainment in the hotel is the sea, the reef and the beach. Sports animation, there are children's, evening shows for adults. Not disgusting, no jokes below the belt, which I liked. Everything is very decent and not annoying. The animators are polite, they remember those who should not be approached (like us). Although my wife enjoyed going to stretching in the morning. There is nowhere to get out of the hotel. Only along the embankment you can wander back and forth to local shops and back. There is free Wi-Fi at the reception, the speed is not very good, but it will do for correspondence and chat. Finally decided to go to Israel for 2 days. Two years ago we were on tour for one day and were very exhausted. You just need to pay attention that 2 days with the guide and on the street are radically different. At the price they are almost the same, about $200, but according to the saturation of the program, you need to take it only on the street. We visited not only Jerusalem, but also looked at the north of Israel, the city of Nazareth, the Sea of Galilee, the Jordan, all this slowly on the second day. We ordered on the Internet due to our reluctance to get out of the hotel (red sea travel agency). The quality of service is normal, like everyone else, but at the same time we liked the employees, very responsible Russian-speaking girls, the guides in Israel were also on top, crossing the border in the general queue, but not for very long, there were few tourists.
I would very much like to recommend the hotel for a relaxing holiday, for lovers of beautiful reefs, as a budget option for a good holiday.
