Unfortunately, my husband and I were also brought to this hotel. We ended up there
on the second day after opening, on Sunday. In Moscow, the manager of "S7
tour "without a shadow of a doubt, she offered it to me: they say, girls-colleagues
went to see, and they really liked it: everything is new,
clean, "and they will probably give you gifts by the opening! "
We were seduced in vain, already in Egypt I learned that in no case should
to go to the hotel until he has worked for a year.
So, firstly, the hotel is located in Nabq bay, which is still
is just being rebuilt. That is, you can’t really get out of it anywhere.
You can walk to Nabq, but there is absolutely nothing to do there. Can
get there and on a free bus, but you in that case
perceived as "meat", which is dumped by blood-thirsty tourists
sellers and callers. Yes, and if you still want to get out of Faraana,
keep in mind that part of the path will pass through undeveloped territory:
there is no shadow at all, there is a construction site around.
We arrived in the hope that this hotel would not have to beg
nice room, because we were one of the first (valuable, as we thought)
guests. Expectations were not met: the terrace turned out to be overlooking
relay tower and fences behind which one could see far, far away
sea. Two Egyptians "settled" us: one commanded, the other dragged our
suitcase and poked at the TV remote, which for some reason did not work.
The "commander" actively demanded baksheesh for a subordinate. We were horrified and
We were told that we would not stay here. Exploring the hotel grounds
realized that this is the worst case. A few hours later I managed to change
room to another one overlooking the pool, pushing the general manager with
reception
The food was decent, but very scarce. Pasta station of three
days worked only in the first. Juices are just "yuppies". By the pool at the bar
you can order freshly brewed coffee or cocoa. The choice of alcohol seems to
was small.
Alterations were constantly going on in the territory. Because of this we
constantly stumbled upon staff, which was much more than
tourists. After a short rest on arrival we took towels
(new, clean) and went to the sea. The path to it was unclear:
the hotel is very far from the sea, which is probably its
main disadvantage. On the second line in distance pulls with difficulty.
There were fences and some kind of checkpoint ahead. So, a couple of steps to the side
sea - and we are stopped by a guard. Of course, he’s not kicked in the tooth
in English, not in Russian. The only word he knew
beach (which he pronounced bitch). Almost forcibly dragged us away
back to the territory: it turns out that it was possible to get to the sea only
on a special shuttle. He threatened that otherwise the police would arrest us. Hm,
let's go to the reception to sort it out: everything is like that, behind the fences begins
protected area, and entry to it is paid. Can't walk
look for the nearest access point in Nabq.
The road to the sea on the shuttle takes about 10 minutes. That one time,
when we got there, our shuttle got stuck in the sand halfway. Beach
dirty, absolutely wild, unkempt. There is a Bedouin hut, and under
several Egyptians hang out with a cooler bag (water and
sodas) is a bar on the beach. Of course, neither soul nor
there was no toilet. Umbrellas began to be built far from immediately: back in
Monday they were there at most 2-3.
Sea - with a sandy entrance. It reminded her husband of Balkhash in Priozersk.
There is nothing for coral lovers to do there. The sea, by the way, was cold.
There is a suspicion that this is a feature of this bay.
On Tuesday, it turned out that the beach is generally closed, because it belongs to
another master, and the administration of Pharaana still had to deal with this
figure out.
In general, the misadventures ended on Wednesday, when we were finally taken away
(with surcharge) to Sunrise Island View Resort. There we go "with all our might"
rested the rest of the week : ) As if in compensation, and the room
they immediately gave a wonderful one, and the sea was warm, and fish with corals, and
the staff is not visible and the area is chic and the food is much
more varied, and the disco was not heard, and the managers of the meeting
pleasant sides - etc. etc...
Moral: Only cheese in a mousetrap is cheap. If Egypt is to go
only in time-tested and tourist hotels. And I also realized that
the novelty of the hotel is not the main advantage when choosing it.
