You can live in a hotel, although this is the cheapest 4 * hotel in Sharm. Nothing broke, nothing was stolen, there were no cockroaches, flies too ...there were mosquitoes, but the means of dealing with them are the same as at home - plates in an electrical outlet (take it with you). cleaned and changed towels every day. For the entire stay, we did not have a single problem (hot water was sorted out within an hour after negotiations at the reception).

There are no Russian-speaking staff at the hotel, but always from 6 to 9 pm there was a Russian-speaking guide from the host tour operator who solves any problem. all inclusive is weak, it's better to take HB, eat in the heat and don't feel like it. The food is good, such as we eat every day, the choice is not chic, but everyone will find something for themselves to eat, no one was poisoned. but you have to be prepared to get used to it. In the morning, they cook an omelette in front of you, in the evening - pasta with different sauces, you can make hot sandwiches yourself. Meat every day - chicken, beef, fish.

necessarily sweet in the evening in a fairly wide choice (you just don’t need more) - cakes, pastries, jelly ...a lot of buns ...not a lot of fruit, but there is always! Food and drinks were carried in, no one searched. Opposite the hotel, across the road, is a bank branch where you can take money from an ATM around the clock, and in a nearby machine, exchange currency at the bank's rate for a meager commission (the exchange rate for the receptionist is very low). 5 minutes from the hotel to the right is the Jasmine shopping center with shops, cafes, telephone connections, excursions, Internet ...The hotel has its own Internet a little more expensive.

There is a Russian TV channel, it shows very well. there is animation, the animators do their best: aerobics and games in the pool and on the beach, in the evening an hour-long entertainment program, after - disco by the efforts of the hotel dj. The hotel is on the second line, but the beach is 4-5 minutes by bus, runs every half an hour, you can walk - a 15-minute walk to the beach will warm the bones well under the scorching sun.
The beach is nothing outstanding, just clean sand, umbrellas, sunbeds are worthy replacements, but fish!! ! ...the long coral reef, which is so unnerving for some vacationers with a long walk on a 150m pontoon, is home to an unusual variety of fish, and swimming over a coral cliff makes you feel like you are floating in the sky above the mountains. even an excursion to ras mohamed (marine national reserve) did not make any impression, there is the same coral reef.

To Naama Bay (entertainment center in sharm el sheikh) 15-20 minutes by minibus for 5 Egyptian candy wrappers ($ 1), or from the hotel a free bus at 8 pm. The area where the hotel is located is new, the first line is built up, but there is a lot of construction around the second line, which does not interfere at all. the Egyptians work slowly and quietly, but the view is still uninhabited. and, despite the proximity of the airport, the planes also fly quietly, this did not bother us at all.
Go on vacation in a good mood, do not find fault with trifles and be friendly, the Egyptians always pay the same. have a nice holiday everyone!
