Autumn has begun in Russia... Friends gathered in Sharm....We, no... I'm sad... I complain about life, rain, ,,,, , periodically whine ,,,
And suddenly I hear from my beloved: "but something we haven't been on vacation for a long time" Hooray!!!!!!!!!! ! We are going to Sharm! I'm packing my suitcase!
The hotel was chosen according to the principle - we had no complaints, we would have had more sun and a bluer sea. (Well, cold beer : )) We turned to Coral, but Tez was the meeting party (which I was very happy about - we already went with them and were satisfied).
We were greeted normally at the hotel, offered sweet but cold water similar to UPI-INVITE, settled quickly (we arrived at 13-30 local time).

Location: hotel 10 km. from Nayama-there is a bus every day at 21h; 3km. from the Old Market, we went on foot for fruits, souvenirs and to the excellent fish restaurant Foros, where for $ 80 the four of us ate the freshest fish, shrimp, crabs... ; on the way to the beach, near the Italian street cafe, there is an excellent hookah (I didn’t like the hookah at the hotel at all); 15 minutes walk to the entertainment center "1001 Nights". Taxi from Old Marketa to hotel -20 pounds, don't give more. Tip: in the nearest supermarket at the crossroads (where you will go for water on the first day) buy a Sharm card for 10 pounds and walk around the neighborhood for your pleasure : )
Rooms. Friends did not like their room (due to the view from the window) and for $10 they were moved to our side overlooking the pool. We lived on the second floor in 210.214 rooms. I didn’t like it: two beds, which, when trying to move them, constantly moved apart, and they did it at very inopportune moments : ), it turned out in the evening and somehow I didn’t want to go to the reception and demand another room; a cockroach was once seen in the bathroom, but she didn’t swear because of this either; mosquitoes in the room, but this was easily resolved on the second night with the help of fumitoks taken "just in case". Liked: fresh linen daily, geese-swans from towels, normal cleaning. Advice: there is a desire, give money, ask for a room on the ground floor - there is a large bed and there is an exit directly to the street.
Staff. The staff is great! Very friendly, great attitude to all children (observed from the side), constantly smiling. One piece of advice - do not be too lazy to once again smile back and say "thank you" - it's not difficult for you, but it's nice for them.
Nutrition. We took ALL. Breakfasts are monotonous, but: scrambled eggs, toasts - on the veranda, croissants, pastries, vegetables with sausages, mashed potatoes, eggs, cheese, sausage, butter, fresh vegetables, natural yogurt, jams, breakfast cereals, tea, coffee milk, you won't go hungry! Lunch - soup (most often vegetable puree soup - delicious! ), two types of side dishes (rice, potatoes), chicken, fish, stewed vegetables, fresh, fruits - oranges, pears, red dates, drinks, water. By the way, there is water in the cooler, but you can also ask at the bar, they give it in small bottles, it is convenient to take it with you to the beach. Dinner is delicious! every evening a new dish: barbecue, kebab, pasta, boiled meat - it's on the veranda, fish, squid, casseroles, a lot of vegetables, different salads, delicious bread - in the restaurant. Alcohol: we tried everything, beer is decent, the rest is a "C grade", I liked what they pour into glass glasses and do not regret the quantity. Trouble - poisoned, most likely with local wine (one of our company drank it), in a pharmacy opposite for $ 10 I bought medicines, it became better during the day.

Animation: a quite decent, Russian animator girl spoke very intelligibly about the whole program: there were entertainments in the hotel, and we were pampered with outdoor events.
Beach: free Palma, scheduled bus, 30-40 minutes walk. The beach is large, the bar is paid, the sea is deep : ). The bus has an inconvenient schedule, but we left the beach on the Virginia hotel bus, the driver was not against it and even stopped at the Falcon. The second beach is paid - $ 3 - 10 minutes walk from the hotel in a straight line towards the sea, there is also a bus. The beach is also large, but the sea in this place rests on the rocks and is somehow dangerous (when we rested there was a constant storm). The third beach is also paid, somewhere in Nayama, we didn’t go there, but I know that there is sand. Taxi from Palma beach to the hotel is $ 2.
The territory of the hotel: small, but very green and somehow homely : ) I especially liked the second courtyard, it is smaller than the first and quieter, because all the people hang out near the first large pool, in the first courtyard.
In general, the hotel is a VERY DECENT "TROIKA"! We were in the "four", which this season is 15.000 more expensive than Falcon, and I saw the difference in the number of dishes in the restaurant and the degree of novelty of the furniture in the room. If I have the opportunity, I will return to this hotel.
Drive with a good mood, tune in to the positive and all sorts of minor troubles will go unnoticed! And the sea is the best! Good luck to everyone and have a good rest!
