Initially, we were supposed to live in Rehan 4 *, but the whole bus was taken to 5 *, motivated by the fact that there were no places in 4k. Everything was free of charge, but being 1 time on the territory of 4ki, I can say that there was more entertainment there, who loves animation: they caught belly dancing by the pool.
The room was very large for us and our friends, but if you strongly adhere to the requirements of 5k, then it was clean only in prominent places, under tables, chairs - dust.
Food: a lot, for every taste, there was plenty to choose from, out of 4 people no one complained. In total, there was enough no matter how much they came up. Pleased with fruits, there were always bananas, tangerines, pomegranates and grapefruit.

The sea was very cold, so basically the whole holiday we scored excursions. We took a snorkeling boat to see the fish. The instructors are very good, they swam in the sea longer than expected, they broke into small groups to make it convenient. The fish and corals are just amazing. Of the minuses: the promised fins and masks for free rental turned out to be $ 7 per person, and the lunch about which they said: there will be a lot of seafood - turned out to be only with fish)) But we didn’t go to eat) Then we were taken on a bathyscaphe-submarine, to see the sea world without diving into the water.
The next day was just terrible - we were taken to a bunch of shops, we didn’t even go to some, we stayed in buses, and the main excursion - the Museum of Tutankhamun was left for last. As a result, everyone came there tired and angry. The tour is very interesting, but short. As a result, we were told as much about jojoba oil as about Tutankhamun))
The next trip was to Israel! It's something, the emotions are just breathtaking. The truth is very hard. We left at 20.00, around 12 at night we were at customs. We passed it for a very long time, about 4 hours, looking at bags, passports, asking questions. Particularly suspicious persons are taken to a separate room for interrogation. So a boy with a beard and a little swarthy got there) and 2 women with visas from Arab countries with which Israel fought. All were interrogated and released. They didn’t let in only a mother with a child, because the child had his own separate international passport and she was not entered into the parent, but in Israel this does not roll. It is unfortunate that Anex, from which the entire bus rode, sold them tickets for the tour, because he knew for sure that it was impossible. By the way, no one checked our passports when buying, we filled everything out ourselves. That's what happened to that woman. By the way, the guys from the Corala bus were standing in line with us, where a similar situation occurred. At 6 in the morning we were at the Dead Sea, then Bethlehem - lunch-Jerusalem (church of the tomb, Golgotha, wailing wall). We got a super guide who told everything excitedly. We were at the hotel around 3-4 am.
And the last excursion was bought from Gena and Cheburashka in the market. We went for a buggy ride in the mountains. Not bad, not scary at all, very beautiful mountains, plus a stop at the Bedouins for tea.

As a result, everyone is happy, but who wants a beach holiday, then this is not January and not this hotel) It is very windy, there is no bay, and even in summer there is a strong current, you won’t swim much, but you will lie like a float, in a fenced area, but look at fish that are nowhere else!! !
