Первые впечатления First Impressions

First time vacationing in Egypt. Before choosing a resort, of course, we read and heard a lot of different reviews, half of which were not true, at least as far as this hotel is concerned. Here we chose Hilton 5 * (all inclusive). Lucky in everything.
They settled in a good room (in my opinion there are simply no bad ones) without requests and additional rewards. The guys from "Pegasus" helped in all matters, many thanks to them!! ! If all the guides in "Pegasus" are like that, then "Pegasus" is the best!!!
The territory of the hotel is beautiful: everything is in flowers and greenery and everything is well-groomed. A waterfall flows through the entire territory of the hotel, there are pools in three places: two in the upper level (one is heated, there is also a SPA resort) and one in the lower level (water +20). Plenty of seating by the pool, there were always free sun loungers. The beach is a reef. Entrance to the sea from a plastic pontoon. Very convenient, and when it's stormy - even funny.

The beach area is small, but there was enough space for everyone. We came to the beach at about 7-30 (we are early birds, but what's the point of going to the sea to sleep ?! ) and there were free sun loungers. The weather was windy, but it did not interfere at all, the water was + 24-25 * C, the air during the day - + 25-30 * C, in the evening - + 18 * C. We rested for 7 days and the opportunity to swim in the sea was all the time, with the exception of low tide (2-3 hours and then only 2 days). The pontoon then lies on the reef and is not allowed to go out on it. There were vacationers with kids - they were splashing near the shore. You can enter the sea from the shore but not far.
In terms of food - everything is excellent and varied. Puree soups, meat dishes (goulash, chicken, sausages, grilled meat), side dishes (spaghetti, vegetables, potatoes in all versions), a lot of pastries and desserts, you can’t list everything. There was a separate buffet for children. Alcohol is free at lunch and dinner (gin, whiskey, rum - everything is quite decent, many said that everything diluted is nothing like that), good fresh juices (mango, guava). The price also included alcoholic drinks in a bar near the beach (from 10 am to 5 pm). Never had any problems with the digestive tract. Bottled water was used, which is also included in the price of the tour.
In terms of the location of the restaurant, the beach - everything is very convenient. There is a funicular, so if you are tired of walking, you can ride. Almost all the hotel staff speaks and understands Russian. Never felt the difference in service (both in the restaurant, and room service, and on the beach). The attitude towards both Russian speakers and speakers of other languages ​ ​ was the same. The main thing is to be a well-mannered, intelligent person and respect those who organize your vacation and follow certain rules!
Animation included volleyball, water aerobics, belly dancing and activities for children. In my opinion this was enough. I am generally not a fan of noisy entertainment on site. The rest of the entertainment for every taste can be obtained at "1000 and 1 nights" across the street from the hotel or you can ride to Naama Bay. From the excursions we chose Luxor (by plane) and Mount Moses with the monastery of St. Catherine. Impressions - super. We were lucky with guides and on excursions, everything was interesting, we did not regret choosing excursions for a second. In terms of flights, transfers and luggage, everything was organized with dignity. Rest was a success!! ! "Pegasus" - 5+++++.
