The choice of the hotel was not an issue. Knowing this hotel from the previous year, the tour was planned at the Reef Oasis Beach Resort. .
The bay in which the hotels Club El Faraana Reef 4 *, Reef Oasis Beach Resort 5 * and Iboretel Fanara are located has the most beautiful and diverse reef, which is perhaps only rivaled by the Ras Mohammed reserve. Proof of this - in the roadstead up to a dozen boats with scuba divers. In addition, there is practically no wind and big waves here, which is especially important for winter.
And in the style of our holiday, the sea is priority number 1.
We took off from Boryspil airport, terminal F, by Boeing-737-800. If you want to see the coast with hotels - book seats on the starboard side.
The plane flies along the coast of Sharm, and turns to land almost above the hotel.
A strong and hot wind constantly blows at the airport.
Having received and filled out the migration cards on our own, we stood in line at the border guard, we expected that we would have to fight for the stamp of the Sinai visa, but he silently stamped it, and we took our luggage and checked in with the TUI representative after 5 minutes sat on the bus. Our hotel was the last one of our arrival.
At the reception, we filled out a questionnaire and asked them to give us the same room that sheltered us last year (not really hoping) As an argument for our request, $ 10. We were unexpectedly glad to receive the keys specifically from No. 4246.
NUTRITION.
At the time of our stay, there was one Italian restaurant Gioconda. Opening hours: breakfast 7-00 - 10-00, lunch 12-00 - 15-00,
dinner 19-00 - 22-00. That is, during the day you can fill your stomach for 9 hours without leaving the restaurant.
The main Main restaurant and the Gril restaurant above the beach are under renovation. There is also an Asian-Indian one, which is also located above the beach, but we did not go to it. Sensis Restaurant - has now become Sentido Mo's and works only for guests of Sensis. The choice of dishes is large, it's impossible to try everything. Beef (slightly undercooked), fish and chicken have always been there. Breakfast is fresh omelet and chicken sausages. Sometimes they took a full bowl of pineapples. Several options for pasta, pizza, rice, and vegetables were also offered. Great variety of pastries and amazing bread. Lots of salads and just fresh chopped vegetables. From fruits: oranges, peaches, melon, apples, watermelon, plums, dates. Dishes are all clean. You can always find a free table anywhere in the hall.
In the bars they constantly drank coffee from coffee machines, sometimes Pepsi, Fanta and hibiscus. Baraka water bottles are given in bars without restrictions.
There were no poisonings.
ACCOMMODATION.
We got number 4246.
2nd floor, Grundig TV, kettle with cups, two kinds of sugar, coffee, dry cream and tea bags. There is a hairdryer, refrigerator, toilet, bidet, shower. Huge bed, balcony with wicker chairs. Three mirrors, mini-safe (only for documents and money!!! ), electronic lock (key-card). Windows to the garden. Everything is in its place, and even the door that closes the refrigerator also creaks habitually. The electronics that they brought with them in large quantities (a laptop, two cell phones, a SLR, a large Canon60D camera, a small camera with an underwater box) all this lay openly on the shelves, on the dressing table, on the bedside tables. And we didn't even think to hide them. The room was cleaned regularly. We noticed it in the change of towels, swans, the renewal of bottles of gels and shampoos, and the ironed sheets. Taking advantage of last year's experience, they took with them an extension cord with a tee.
You should also pay attention to the fact that there are no clocks anywhere else in the hotel (except for the reception).
Now about the main thing - the SEA.
Prepared for this in advance, at home. The new Italian SEAC masks proved to be excellent. The reef gradually and slowly turns pale. There are fewer and fewer living areas. But there are plenty of fish nonetheless. This year, many videos were shot, the heroes of which were moray eels, stingrays, blue-finned balistodes, turtles, eagles and many smaller inhabitants. We swam during our long boat trips about 800-900 meters behind the pontoon of Faraana (it was there that the turtle and eagles were filmed) and 200-300 meters behind the pontoon of Phanara. A white pipe sticking out of the corals means that there is a 32 m deep cliff under it. A strong current towards Taba was also found there, which the wife could not cope with on her own. I had to tow it to the pontoon. But I must say there are much more bright and diverse fish there.
The contingent of vacationers.
The hotel is filled by 60-70%, most of which are Italians. The rest is a small part of the Russians, Poles, British and Germans. A small part of the hotel is under renovation, most likely occupancy is 60% of the existing rooms (there are many free sunbeds on the beach). There is no tagil in its purest form. Although before leaving in a restaurant near the Pepsi and Fanta bottling machine, I met one. Substituting a glass - he poured the contents into the sewer. To my question, well
you're doing a scoundrel - got the answer - so the foam will come off faster.
Territory.
The territory of the hotel is quite large, approximately 900x350 meters. 19 swimming pools for adults, 3 children's (some of them, only for Sensis guests), 10 bars, there are round-the-clock. The water park reopened after renovation. Last year, 3 slides and a large area with numerous pools completely satisfied everyone.
This year there are a total of 17 slides, some of which are located on a special children's area, on which a whole complex was built. The number of people in the water park has increased significantly.
There is a restoration of 3 jacuzzi, above the beach. Behind the Main restaurant, another bar is being built.
Since December 5.2011, Beach and Sensis have been operating as two different hotels, the border of which is the road between the Patio bar, hookah and buildings with numbers 3000 - 4000. Vacationers at the Sensis Hotel can use the entire infrastructure of the Reef Oasis Hotel, while vacationers at Reef Oasis Beach The Resort has some restrictions on Sensis territory. On the beach, they also fenced off a site for the Sensis (they organized their own bar there). But due to the fact that the length of the beach is about 400 m, this did not affect the overall picture.
An open bus runs around the territory.
Entertainment:
We were of little interest.
But for everyone else (let me remind you - the contingent is mostly Italians) evening performances in the theater, animation during the day on the beach and in the water park and performances on stage against the reception. Diving day, night.
Last year, we met the seller of one of the shops at the hotel (this year he met us like relatives), and in the evenings in an air-conditioned room with benefits for business (rubbing, medicinal oils) we spent time in conversations with him. We learned a lot about Egypt from the inside.
Internet WiFi. on the territory of the hotel. At the reception of the Beach hotel, the Internet is paid (1h-11 bucks) and at the reception of the Senses it is free. The Internet was used after dinner at the Sensis pool (when the security was leaving)
Of the positive aspects, I would like to note the construction of a toilet on the beach and the reconstruction of a second shower.
From the negative.
Last year, a car with a smoke bomb on board sometimes cruised around the territory, and as a result, there were no insects over the territory. Now there is no car, but there are dragonflies, butterflies and flies. The latter are the most active and biting. They pester not only on the beach.
Cabins for changing clothes, a changing room - are absent on the beach, as a class.
Somewhere there is construction, somewhere reconstruction, but they are not seen or heard.
Advice.
For the most part, hotel workers love to be photographed.
Take photos with them for memory, and you will be remembered. In most cases, it acts like the equivalent of $1. They have an amazing visual memory. Everyone we met last year remembered us, which made our stay nice.
Results.
For minor errors, I give the Reef Oasis Beach Resort a 5. Thanks to all the hotel staff for a great vacation!
