Лето в феврале Summer in February

This was my seventh trip to the country of the eternal sun. And I have already drawn many conclusions in previous times. Therefore, now specifically about the hotel and a little in general.
It's always nice to move from winter to summer. And winter was already tired to such an extent that the key desire was just to go to the sun. We traveled with my beloved - he gave me such a gift on February 14 : ) I already had the experience of traveling to Egypt in January and February. Therefore, I know that it can be windy (half of the seven days were like that) and you need to take both a swimsuit and a windbreaker - in the evenings it is 17 degrees, and even less with the wind. All seven days were sunny, there were wicker fences on the beach, which, in principle, saved us from the wind. On the first day we dozed off on the beach for a couple of hours and that was enough to burn us badly. The redness did not go away until the end of the holiday! We used the beach of the five - the same hotel, just across the road.
It was a stone's throw from the sea, although buses also traveled around the territory (five), but we always walked. Everyone who stayed in the four (Rehan) could use the beach and the territory of the five. Although at the first meeting the guide told us that it was only allowed to go to the beach bar, we went to others - if you don’t shine too much with your bracelet and don’t fuss, you can eat and drink there. However, the booze there leaves much to be desired. I have the impression that over the past few years, she completely fucked up. All you could drink was rum and cola and beer. But not draft, but bottled - Sahara. It is poured in the central building.

Regarding food - food, as elsewhere in Egypt. For breakfast, as a rule, they took yoghurts with fruits, scrambled eggs and toast. For lunch there were soups to choose from (but we often skipped lunch) and for dinner - salads and hot dishes, which were prepared on the street. There are 4 a la carte restaurants on site. It was not bad in Indian, Mexican (we liked the hot there so much that the waiter brought us a second portion (! ), Well, the coolest one is undoubtedly oriental. Everyone likes it without exception. All that we didn’t like was the service.
I want to talk about this separately. Most of the waiters are arrogant and unfriendly. There were, of course, others, but it was not without a fly in the ointment)) And I think that our compatriots are to blame for this. A lot of Russian "dudes" who came to get drunk in the trash. They were then caught from the pool at 12 at night. They decided to swim, but everything interferes with them here! Or ours, the Ukrainians, who, upon arrival at the Star Fish bar, sang “Bring Galya water” throughout Ivanovo. . And so it is with slight contempt. To tear a vest and say that "we are not like that"? What for.
Regarding the number - it was small - all previous times the number (kopeck piece) were larger. But we did not come to live in the room, so we were not particularly indignant. There are the following nuances according to the numbers: be sure to take a fumigator (everything is expensive there, just like sunscreen - some cheap low-quality cream - $ 15). There were a lot of mosquitoes! ! We couldn't sleep because of these bastards! And twice they found a spider with suspicious colors on the curtains. We think that it was poisonous - it was very similar. We nailed it and brought it to the reception, they told us that there were no poisonous spiders in the area. But something is not very believable. So close the balcony at night if you do not want an invasion of unexpected guests. According to the behavior of the cleaners, they came at one time at four o'clock, when everything should already be cleaned and we returned from the sea and want to relax, and here hello - cleaning the room. Often they did not bring water (they must leave a bottle every day) and the manager came a couple of times - he was interested in what was wrong. And after our reasoned comments, nothing was done. So - nothing new, everything is the same as everywhere else.
Guides, like all tour operators, are very arrogant and are only interested in selling you a tour. And if you say that it’s already the seventh time in the country and you’ve seen everything, you are an enemy for them)))) We really went to the hammam. But here is the divorce! In the brochure of the guide it is written - and an hour and a half of massage, and upon arrival at the hotel, in which everything happened, it turns out that the procedure lasts an hour. Tourists, in their opinion, are complete fools or what? I know that some guides returned money in such a situation, but they did an hour and a half for us - and everyone was satisfied. True, then after their jacuzzi, my bathing suit stank of bleach for another week.

As for entertainment - there was a disco in the hotel, but it's more of a laugh than a disco. We went to Naama Bay - there are very few people there now. All sellers complain that the flow of tourists has almost dried up. Of the good goods there are watches, bags and glasses - these are very high-quality fakes, for which fashionable Moscow chicks go there))))
In general - a score of four with a plus. Vacation was a success!
