We were afraid to fly into quarantine for a vacation, because we understood that the hotels were not ready to accept tourists, but there was no choice, because the purchased ticket for April would either burn out without a refund, or we would somehow buy in the sea. It was decided to fly, of course.
Anex tour met us and was pleasantly surprised that he did not intimidate us with scary tales if we did not buy excursions from him. We fly to Egypt with different companies 2-3 times a year. But it was a pleasant shock. Thanks Mizo! (For those who don’t know, guides usually scare with very scary stories that there will be no insurance or the plane won’t take you home if you don’t buy excursions from him now and at this price! )
About the hotel:
Going to the reception, we ended up in an old hotel (which has not seen repairs for a long time) hotel. The walls are cracked, the paint is peeling off in places, But at the reception we were met by guys with big smiles under masks.

They settled us right away (arrival was early, we were at the hotel at about 9 o'clock in the morning). We were ready to pay extra for early check-in, as we know the rules in hotels, but the man handed us the key, which again caused a pleasant surprise! The room was with 2 beds, and back in Kyiv we indicated that we needed one big one! Returning to the reception and having stimulated the man with $10 after 20 minutes of waiting (they say, now we will remove and give you the key), we settled in a room in building 5, with a large bed and a view of the green lawn.
Room: large with a double bed, a sofa that also unfolds, a plasma TV, a refrigerator, a hairdryer, a kettle and a tea set, towels for the shower and for the beach (it’s very inconvenient that beach towels are not changed every day) and other standards in the room.
Restaurant: the food is delicious, the choice is enough, fruits: dates, melon, grapes, orange, watermelon sometimes. Meat: beef (sometimes in 2 types at the same time), chicken, lamb sometimes. Sweets - the sea (Egyptian and European).
Additional restaurants do not work and this was a minus, because the girl had a birthday and wanted romance.
Bars: cheap Egyptian alcohol, tasty beer, juices - yupi, cola not diluted and not a substitute for cola. The only downside is that now everything is served in plastic (glasses are small). But they were sympathetic to this because of the virus.
Beach: shallow, sandy entry, good for kids in my opinion. Panton, compared to neighboring hotels - short. There are no fish or reef.
Although there are animations for 3 people, they make an excellent atmosphere of joy and fun.
The pool is clean.
The territory (working) is clean and green, (not working) is a little covered with dust and yellow grass.
Staff: for me, the staff of Egypt is divided into 3 types of “louts who are rude with or without reason” “robots who strictly do their job without unnecessary emotions and words” and “mirror, those who treat them the same way and can be rude in response, you can agree if they have a good attitude towards them ”I love the latter very much and in this hotel they are exactly like that. Make friends with these, for $ 1 and a smile, they will bring you a drink to the sun lounger and give the coldest beer and the girl will make a delicious milkshake.
And finally, I want to mention some of the staff of this hotel personally!
Many thanks to the cleaner of our room 5104 for the towel figurines. The girl is delighted with them.

To the bartender on the beach for kindness, understanding and just a good mood. Well, for personal service.
Manager Maria, who helped in resolving all issues. (From replacing beach towels and calling a safe repairman (through the reception they called 2 days, informing Maria, the guy ran in 7 minutes)))) to a detailed tip on a place with corals and fish in Sharm and how to choose high-quality souvenirs.
Osman from the reception for quick check-in and quality work without unnecessary "hey friend".
Masha-animator for the great atmosphere at the show and the pool. Small, you're just Agon!
