Море впечатлений Sea of ​​impressions

Last year we rested in Hurghada, the Sphinx 5 * hotel, on the very shore, overlooking the sea. Novotel in particular and Sharm al-Sheikh in general wins in all respects. The hotel is excellent. Check-in is instant, no additional fees. We just had time to give the voucher, our bags were already on the electric car, sat down, drove off. We drove for about 5 minutes, we thought in the morning to swear and demand a closer settlement. After walking, the desire to move has disappeared. Near the reception lodge with children. There are no bad numbers. From the doors of the farthest room to the pontoon on the beach, 7-8 minutes of slow walking through a beautiful and well-groomed area. The staff is not intrusive. Cleaned daily, if you do not hang a bag with a request not to disturb. The food is beyond praise, especially dinners. Everything that was there, they could not try. There was hardly room for sweets. Fruits (persimmons, figs, melons, bananas, and other local ones) did not have the strength to eat. We had breakfast and dinner. Rejoiced all 7 days that there was no dinner. Dinner drinks for a fee. But next to the hotel there is a supermarket-type store - water, juices were bought there (the prices are fixed, they make their way on the computer, they give change to such small coins that it was impossible to figure it out. The beach, as already mentioned, is within easy reach. The beach is excellent, clean sand "There are enough places. Coral is lovely, thousands of fish. We swam on a boat trip in Ras Muhamed - no comparison. Even the accompanying guide said "yes, you have a cool reef in Novotel. " On our reef we saw a two-meter moray eel, a 50-kilogram Napoleon fish , lionfish, stingray, and parrots, triggerfish, butterfly fish, etc. without counting. I really liked the excursion to Jerusalem and the Dead Sea, although it was quite difficult. The Israeli border was passed from 24.00 to 4.00, in fact the night before the tour did not sleep, and returned to the hotel by 2 o'clock in the morning. But the tour is worth it. The sightseeing tour of Sharm is weak, I would even say that there is no need to spend $ 10 per person. We went from the Tez tour. No complaints about the organization of rest as a tour operator and the hotel could not come up with. Yes, almost forgot - animation. We don’t need it, and in the Novotel Palm it’s not there. On the beach, the animators tried to tear off vacationers from rest and snorkeling, but in my opinion they didn’t succeed very well.
