We rested in Egypt for the first time, the operator Pegasus, the hotel was chosen based on reviews, we stopped at Rehan 4 *.
Because did not plan to leave the Sinai Peninsula at the airport
filled out the cards and with a smile "Salam alaikum! Only Sinai" calmly passed the border without any paid stamps.

We were at the hotel around 3:30 pm. We settled without any dollars after 15 minutes, filled out a questionnaire and handed us the keys to the room, cards for towels and put on bracelets. Room in building 7 (between the reception and the main restaurant, almost opposite the central pool), on the first floor (7008), view of the road and Rehana 5 *, but it's for the best, because. it was very sunny in the morning, and noisy companies of vacationers did not pester at night. The room arranged everything, everything is in working order, clean, fresh. True, they never figured out the safe, so all valuables were kept in a bag, under lock and key. Nothing is missing. The promised 2 bottles of water of 0.6 liters each were brought to the room 10 minutes after our check-in.
The hotel is quite large, the territory is appropriate (the hallmark of the hotel): a sea of ​ ​ greenery, flowers, cacti, palm trees, flowering shrubs, pools with several cascades, bridges and waterfalls. There is only one heated pool, places near it begin to take from 7 o'clock. Life is in full swing near it all day long: animation takes place (yoga, belly dance, exercises, water polo, darts, etc. ), 2 water slides work. Near the rest of the pools, those who want peace and not to be invited to various competitions rest. It is also worth mentioning that new buildings are being built on the territory of the hotel, but this did not interfere at all.
As for nutrition. At first, the variety of food pleased, but in the last days of rest it became more and more difficult to make a choice, because. the food has arrived. It cannot be said that there was nothing to choose from. For lunch and dinner, there was always the first, various soups, mashed potatoes from broccoli, carrots. Several types of meat, side dishes, sweets were in abundance. The main restaurant has 2 coffee machines, several types of local tea, yuppies, cola, fanta, sprite and other drinks. Everything is allowed to be taken out of the restaurant.
Getting to the sea is very convenient. One has only to go through a small tunnel that runs under the highway separating two Rehans, and walk or drive on a taf-tuff for 200 meters. After that, walk a little through the territory of Rehana 5 * and you will get to the beach. There were always enough sun loungers, however, it was windy. Therefore, almost always hung a red flag. Because of what in the sea it was possible to swim only 3 times. The bottom was not clearly visible because of the waves, as a result of which the water was cloudy. But the reef could be seen, it is alive and very beautiful near the hotel. Flute fish, Napoleon of considerable size, surgeon fish, parrots and other inhabitants of the Red Sea were seen.

Summing up, I want to say that the rest was a success! And we would love to come back here again.
Have a nice holiday everyone!
