Many thanks to TA "Amerigo Vespucci" for the prompt selection of the tour, while also getting into 10 according to our Wishlist.
I must say right away that this is our third trip to Sharm, before that we rested in Siva Sharm 5 * and Sharm Plaza 5 *. And according to most hotel requests, this hotel is better than not only them, but also more expensive hotels.
We flew from Join Up, meeting company SUN Int.
Road. With the airport, the situation is standard, with filling out a visa card in which we write “Sinay Only” and indicate general information about ourselves. The mobile operator this time chose Ethyl Salat (13 USD for 28 GB) with the declared instagram, facebook, netflix which are not charged, but for some reason everything ate faster than last time with a water background. Drive to the hotel about 15-20 minutes.
Hotel, accommodation. With an early check-in, local workers immediately try to sell an early check-in for 30u. e. , as well as an increase in the level of apartments (for cottages 30 c. u. / day, for rooms on the pool or the sea at 20 c. u. / day. We eventually bargained for a sea view for 10 c. u.
/day and at the same time did not have to pay extra for early check-in (we checked into the hotel at 6 am). The rooms themselves are in pretty good condition, but the standard rooms face the courtyard. Our room was only after renovation and there was simply nothing to complain about in the room. Cleaning in the room is standard, but regularly it was necessary to beg for water bottles from the cleaner, according to some strange tradition in this hotel, water bottles can only be taken from him.
Territory, Pools. The territory of the hotel is green and wherever you walk, there are pools nearby all the time. In some places, of course, the abandonment of outbuildings spoils the view, but you quickly stop paying attention to this. Swimming pools are located throughout the territory: near the villas there is a huge heated pool with a pull bar, and near the main building there are 3 pools (with sea water, for children, and with sea slides). Well, that is, for every taste. The pools themselves were regularly cleaned.
The main plus of the pools is that some kind of rubberized film is glued over the tiles, thanks to which it is unrealistic to cut yourself and there is no chance of slipping. The only downside is the mosquitoes. Therefore, the fumigator is a must have.
Nutrition. Well, the food is beyond praise. There are crabs, shrimp, salmon and other fish, as well as mussels and other shellfish. For meat lovers there was also a choice for every taste - from chicken, beef and ending with lamb. Plus, for lunch and dinner - grill (fish, hamburgers, pies and various meats). For dessert, a huge selection of delicious pastries, as well as fruits; oranges, melons, watermelons for lovers of the classics, and physalis, kumquats for lovers of the interesting. In general, no one will go hungry here. As for drinks - powdered juices, powdered coffee, but pretty good quality, like beer, which is only bottled in this hotel.
Sea, beach, corals.
I'll start with a minus - this hotel is not for people with limited mobility or families with small children. The path to the sea and the descent can be tiring, especially if you are with a pram. Between the hotel and the beach there are VIP villas of the former president of Egypt, the former president of Kazakhstan, etc. , etc. , as well as the access road to these villas, which you need to cross along a nice overground!! ! the transition, after which you find yourself in the beach area, which is stretched along the slope and gives everyone the opportunity to take their corner on the sunbed, away from the big crowd, this plus immediately complicates the descent to the sea itself, because you have to go through this labyrinth all the time)) )
Sea. There are as many as 4 pontoons at the hotel, which are firmly installed on the bottom, and no matter what waves, their length, in my opinion, is about 10-15 meters. Some of them have a shower with fresh water, and the descent from the pontoon itself along the inclined steps with handrails. It is very convenient and there was never a flea market for all 8 days.
Corals near the pontoon are no worse than those that you can see by swimming on a bathyscaphe or by going to Ras Mohammed. Naturally, if you want to see more fish, then you need to come by 8 o'clock, until other vacationers scare it away. Although it is also full during the day, only moray eels were noticed from dangerous living creatures, but there are no lionfish here. There is no sandy beach in this hotel either, but it is not needed here.
In general, I give this hotel a solid 8 out of 10. And of the minuses, perhaps the only way from the hotel to the beach. and the fact that there is access to the beach only from 7 to 17. at other times the gates are closed and without options.
Tours. The hotel representative was not very annoying, but we did not receive any useful information from him either. The cost of excursions on the beach is standard at 10-15 USD. e. cheaper than his, and in fact no different. We swam on a bathyscaphe (at 30 c. u.
) - it is suitable for those who, for various reasons, cannot snorkel or scuba dive, you will see fish and corals no less than on Ras Mohammed, but only through glass. We went on an evening sightseeing tour to the Old City for 15 USD. e. where dinner was included in a sea restaurant (pretty good). And also on the last day they sailed to Ras Mohammed on a yacht (for 30 USD). All excursions are worth visiting at least once. They also wanted to sail to Tiran Island (renting a boat without other tourists for 70 USD per hour) and a combined trip to the Blue Canyon for 60 USD. e. - ATVs, camels, lunch, yacht and snorkeling included.
