We went through Pegasus.
Departures from Kyiv are late. We arrived at the hotel at 12 noon. Carried by Kharkiv Airlines. The plane is not old. The service on the plane is good, they even handed out immigration cards and did not have to queue at the airport. A visa for Ukrainians is not required. They settled in right away.
Flight back is also late. The room can be extended up to a maximum of 8 pm, while at 12 we had to move to another room. It cost about 35 dollars. The bracelets were not cut off, so we used "ALL" to the end...
There were a lot of Arabs in the hotel before Ramadan, they eat before fasting)
In addition to the Arabs - 10 percent of the British, the rest of the Slavs.
The hotel is designed for 1500 people, and in our time only 346 people had a rest. Accordingly, there are no queues anywhere.
Animation is not intrusive, everything is standard.

There are a lot of barkers on the beach, sticking as much as you can. There are enough sunbeds for everyone on the beach. The beach is elongated, the pontoon is on the left side, and the shower and the bar are on the right, two hundred meters between the pontoon and the bar, not very convenient. Towels are issued upstairs near the central pool, they are not issued on the beach. There is no toilet on the beach, no changing rooms either. However, the entire territory of the hotel is planned somehow in an Indian way. You have to twist a lot to get where you need to go.
For $2 from the bar, drinks and snacks will be carried straight to your lounger all day long.
There is a diving center, windsurfing.
The reef is not bad, but not amazing either.
The wind often blows and at this time there is a strong current, then they are not allowed on the pontoon. But you can go to Melia Sinai and swim there.
Those who get up early and like to swim can, until the sand is hot, go to Sensatori and from there swim to Melia Sharm.
The food is standard, no frills. On the fifth day, they begin to repeat. Fresh 20 pounds.
In Melia Sharm, the territory is not cleaned very well, you can see an empty bottle in the same place for three days, although the urns are everywhere. At the same time, gardeners mow the grass nearby, but the bottle will not be removed. The cleaner in the room will put the plates from the restaurant outside the room and there they will also stand for three days.
In the evening, you can walk towards the Baron and Sensatori and see how the hotel grounds should be cleaned and groomed.
A shuttle bus runs to the city from the hotel according to the schedule. There and back 4 euros per adult and 3 per child. Taxi in Naama Bay - 10-12 dollars.
For its 3.5 years old, the hotel is rather shabby and this was the most disappointing. In our presence, peeling walls were re-plastered on the hull. The furniture is a little worn.
The TVs in the rooms are flat, the mattresses are not dead, but on the children's bed it is foam rubber and it is not very comfortable to sleep on it, it sags.
There are separate buildings, called Level. There Ultra ALL. In addition to a better location of rooms, vacationers are still entitled to imported alcohol, but it is not available in bars)
There is a gym, the equipment is not killed, it has a separate shower room and toilet.

Wi-Fi throughout the hotel, but for the money. On the beach takes a little bad. It costs 26 euros for 6 days. It is more profitable in Soho to buy a local 3G card, insert it into a smartphone and distribute Internet from it to the whole family or friends, because you cannot distribute hotel Internet and only one device can be connected under one login. And the hotel internet is slower.
