The main thing in choosing a hotel was - the territory, distance to the sea and food. We were not mistaken with the hotel. Arrived at 6.30 am, the guy at the reception dragged an hour, froze, pretending not to understand Russian (although their position provides for this). We immediately gave $ 5 - saying to settle in an hour, the girls who came with us had at least $ 10 and settled them immediately. Internet here is PAID and no (one photo in Viber - 5 minutes, the other does not want), for 4 days -5 $. Gave $ 10 and waited for 15 minutes. - he ran here and there with a bill, not knowing how to get away from me, he already gave the keys to the room and the cards for towels ...barely demanded. Another guy took us into the room - showing everything, checking if it works, moving the beds (and ordered a double) and asking "Dash, Dash? ". Give $ 1. Tip: go with small bills, or on arrival at the airport buy a SIM card, you will always be on the bundle and exchange money. Small sellers always have enough.
Went for breakfast - it is specific: boiled eggs, scrambled eggs with vegetables (made for you), cheese, sausage, a bunch of delicious pastries, mashed potatoes, milk rice, cereals of two kinds, vegetables. They wanted to change the room for the sake of the bed, the same guy at the reception every time lied about the hour of arrival of the guide. They scored 4 times and went to the sea ...it's beautiful - the beach is huge, the water is clear, the entrance is gentle sand and pebbles. The area is huge and very clean. Were from 3.11 to 10.11 2018. The sea was mostly warm, there were big waves for a few days, we jumped on them enough, so whoever has one, take one-piece swimsuits. Once bathed after sunset - the water is calm and very warm. When the waves were no longer a joy to swim in the pools, there are 7 + small, you can choose any depth. It's such a thrill. Drinking water is not given, bought 2pcs. for $ 1, and then filled the bottles with what they wanted : ) Cleaning is no, when $ 1 he left just twisting the towels something and everything. Neighbors did not deprive once.
The first night the music thundered, the man called the reception several times, went complaining, then turned off after 12 at night. There were few people in the hotel, everyone had enough food and space. Lunch and dinner Very varied, always fish, chicken and meat, cucumbers, tomatoes, a bunch of cakes, jelly, 3 kinds of fruit. EVERYTHING was delicious! Hotel guide - a separate story - tours 2 or 3 times more expensive (joint up) than local companies. ATVs, for example, he has $ 15 per person, and we took the local $ 6, and people rode 40 minutes. , and we were 2 hours and were near the simulated pyramids, and they are not. Draw conclusions ...Their free sightseeing tour is also a divorce - they drive to the agreed stores, where everyone is 10! ! ! ! ! times more expensive (I do not exaggerate - a cup of $ 45, we bought the same for $ 3-4 in the market). Although you can go for the first time to compare prices, but do not rush to buy. They only took a trip to Soho from him, because it was $ 9 for two in the evening.

From the hotel you need to go down a bit and walk along the road, there is a market where you can buy everything: 3 arafatki for $ 1, an inflatable circle for an adult $ 3, magnets 6 pcs. for $ 1, a cup for $ 3-4, towels from $ 3, masks and creams for $ 1…, etc. suitable. We went to the old town (old market stop) - it's just a bomb, there is a mosque of incredible beauty, bazaar negany, and a fish shop and restaurant "Fares" (the restaurant is more expensive, and in the store a kilo of shrimp you cook, fry or grill for 10 -12 $. $ 1 for leather, another to wait 2 minutes. ), and in Sharm only 2 roads are parallel along the hotels.
Be careful about excursions and shopping, because this is a purely resort town, you will want to be divorced EVERYWHERE, so you need to compare prices, bargain and ask in detail.
Pretend it's expensive and you don't have that kind of money. In addition to ATVs took a tour of the Color Canyon + Abu Galum (blue hole) ($ 15, but bargaining for 4 gave for $ 50). Already in the car we were led to the fact that you need to take extra and pay for swimming equipment and brought "accidentally" to a gas station, where it cost $ 10 for one, we had only $ 10 for 2, and the husband is not wanted to take. On the spot it turned out that all this can be taken for $ 5, traded for $ 8 for two. Guides were not happy… There was no animation in the hotel, the bar can only drink water, various cocktails, and beer. No wine, non-alcoholic alcohol… Take with you, but not in hand luggage, but in a suitcase, well wrapped in speeches.
With us was Svetlana - director of a travel agency in Belarus, came 3 times this year to Faran for 21 days, told us that this is the best beach in all of Sharm, and the hotel was VIP-class, where for 5 days a person took $ 1.000.
In recent days, it turned out that we lived right next to the Ross Mohammed Reserve and the Dolphinarium, where we did not go (the travel agency was for 8, I think the entrance itself would be twice cheaper, where to find such prices in Ukraine? ). Therefore, specifically consider the possibilities of location and bring a flipper and a mask. Who needs peace - you here. The main thing is not to pay attention to the little things, they are nowhere perfectly clean. Have a good rest! ! ! ! ! I hope my feedback will be useful. Fuuuuh ... ; )
