Reading some of the reviews I am shocked! Poor food?? ? I really want to visit your house and look at your diet)))) Well, oh well, everything is in order!
1. FLIGHT, TRANSFER, MEETING
The flight from St. Petersburg to Sharm lasted 4.5 hours, everything was as usual, everything was on time. I met TezTour at the airport, said the bus number and drove off... Travel time was about 40 minutes, because. everyone was brought in. Not tiring, the air conditioner on the bus and the beautiful views outside the window did their job! We were at the hotel around 12 days, and check-in after 14. We were 2 families: mother + son and 2 sisters + child. Some were settled quickly (in half an hour), while others were left to wait until the room was cleaned... At this time, we had lunch, looked at the territory. No complaints, because they settled even earlier than 14 hours.
2. NUMBER
The hotel is one-sided, i. e. there all the rooms face one side - the sea, but not from all the rooms it (the sea) is visible (features of the landscape + buildings)! There are standard rooms and deluxe rooms. We paid nothing extra and got a room on the 4th floor with a French balcony (full-length window). They did not change to a room with a real large balcony, everything is fine anyway. The only thing that I personally did not really like: there is no shower cabin in the bathroom, just a floor and a transparent partition. When you wash, the spray fills the entire bathroom floor. But it's not fatal, they put a towel on the floor and that's it! The rest of the room is ordinary, I won’t describe in great detail, TV is flat, 1 Russian channel (some kind of mixed hodgepodge), condo, mini-bar for a fee, safe for a fee. The furniture is not new, but we were not hurt. VERY comfortable bed! Slept like babies
3. FOOD
About the reviews of some comrades have already been expressed... It's not clear !! ! The food is just great!!! ! Salads, appetizers - 15 kinds, sauces - too. Hot: 5-6 types of side dishes, meat, fish, chicken. Every day there was something from the cook: either some unknown animal, then some birds, then fish... True, there was always one copy of the soup. Every day is different, but one! And you can write poems about baking! The Egyptians are masters at this! Drinks in the restaurant: tea, coffee, juices, fruit drinks, pepsi, sprite, fanta, beer, gin, vodka, whiskey, rum. Serving is just excellent, cutlery, napkins - everything is clean and snow-white)) In the evening, instead of paper napkins, there were starched fabric ones. Very nice and pleasant.
4. STAFF
The staff is almost all Russian-speaking. All in varying degrees, but you can understand and explain. The restaurant has very polite waiters, the plate is taken away only after they ask: finish? I mean: is everything finished? If you need something, no problem, the response is instant. Polite staff not only in the restaurant, everywhere! As they say: the family has its black sheep, there are, of course, a couple of ignoramuses, but this is rather an exception.
5. POOL BEACH SEA
It is difficult to start somewhere, because there were nuances of the weather...
The first 3 days were strong and cold winds. From this it seemed that the sea was icy, but it was not. After you overcome the fear of entering the water, you understand that the sea is warm. Going out is also scary, because. cold wind. We decided to go to the pool and were not mistaken: there was no wind and the real African heat was felt - 40 degrees. On the 4th day the weather changed and the wind died down, you could safely sunbathe on the beach, the water was warm. The beach is clean, the sea is clean, transparent. 2-3 times the tide brought all sorts of muck like cups, rags and other dirt, but this can also be experienced. If you really want water, go to the pool or just wait it out and everything will go away by itself. The pool began to be heated towards the end of our holiday (it's strange that they started doing this when the weather was already hot). The pool bar is the only all inclusive bar. There is no snack there, except for a few sweet squirrels, and all the same drinks as in the restaurant. The glasses are very small (200 gr) plastic, disposable, so I can advise beer lovers to ask (politely))) the bartender to pour 2 cups at once. By the way, the bartender Mukhamed, a guy with character, but a good one! Basically, according to the principle - as you are with them, so they are with you. We became friends!!!!
There is a bar on the beach, but it is paid.
Fish:
there were some near the pier, but not many, there were a lot of neighboring piers, especially if you feed))) True, one day the miracle fish were in a good mood and they swam right to the shore, I went to photograph them, so they swam right at my feet! Very beautiful! A brave bird (heron? ) also flew ashore.
6. ANIMATION, ENTERTAINMENT
Animators: Lisa from Russia, Martina from Italy or Spain (I don’t remember exactly), the guy is Egyptian - he’s a fakir, he’s a dancer, he also leads aqua aerobics))) In general, they are smart!! ! every day volleyball, water polo, exercises, aqua aerobics, dance lessons, darts, ping-pong (I didn’t seem to forget anything). In the evening, there is always some kind of program: dances performed by the animation team, dances with guest artists, a fakir show, karaoke. In short, every day there was something! On the beach you can ride on a banana, on a sofa, on a tablet, take an excursion on a yacht. There is a spa, we were talked to for a procedure for $ 50: a mask, facial cleansing, massage, another mask + eyebrow correction with a thread. I really liked it. But this should be done only on the first or second day of rest. There is a massage. VERY liked it. There are many options, we took a back massage: 25 minutes - $30. Decided to get a pedicure. 25$. So-so. . . Varnish coating generally leaves much to be desired. .
Naama Bay is 2 minutes walk. Hookah, fish restaurants, shops, shops and shopping centers - everything is at your service in abundance! Bargain! The price is reduced! Near the store "Panorama", there are fixed prices (low), a good selection of souvenirs, there are also clothes. Civilized, few people and low prices. The choice of shopkeepers, of course, more. Also nearby is the Ramstore grocery store.
GENERALLY. . .
In general, the rest was very pleasant, everything was at a decent level. They left with tears! There was one moment: there was a holiday - Eid al-Adha, and on the second day of our vacation, DARKNESS Arab families arrived (Egyptians, Saudi Arabia, Emirates, Libya, etc. ). This drove us a little into a stupor. I have never seen so many vacationing Arabs!! ! Screaming children, screaming youth, loud men and women (!!! ). Women bathe (as everyone knows) in clothes, some in shoes. Although they say that they have not just clothes, but special bathing suits, but I personally didn’t like this sight (((It was impossible to enter the pool due to the number of swimming Arabs. Even the permanent lifeguard on duty by the pool sympathized with us. Said something like: what, Russians, there is no place for you in the pool today? He said without sarcasm, with understanding. Their behavior in the restaurant is another story! The first time we came right after them. The picture we saw shocked us! ! ! There are HEAPS of rubbish on the floor, all the tables are dirty !!! ! The poor waiters muttered to us in embarrassment: sorry, wait, please, we will cover everything again....They were ashamed of their fellows. They are worse than gypsies. But, to "To our joy, they left quickly. As a result, they came for 4 days... But even this did not spoil our wonderful holiday! Yes, more! Keep in mind that the sun sets at 4 o'clock, and at 5.30 it is already dark. That's probably all This is, of course, in brief. If you have any questions, I will answer them all. Have a good rest !!!! !
