The hotel is very beautiful, clean area, not intrusive smiling staff, but. . . so that I would like to note this meeting with the guide from Anex tour guide-Ahmed, who is completely misleading only to buy excursions from him twice as much as their real price, he even sold a sightseeing tour for $ 5, although vacationers in the same hotel we went to it for free (in fact, there was nothing to see, they just bring it to the store and sell everything at exorbitant prices, those oils that cost $ 15 on the market, they sell for $ 70. . . ), but this is not about the hotel. As for the hotel, there are no comments, the fact that it is international gives it a special piquancy, Germans, Italians, Kazakhs, Poles rested with us. . . The hotel is located in the Nabq Bay area, and as it turned out, this is the windy side of Sharm and swimming in the sea was forbidden most days, although if you swim well, they will let you see the fish, because there are no fish on the shore and the reef is dead, but when the tide was low, we managed to see who lives at the bottom of the sea. . . As for food, there are no complaints, every evening there were themed dishes (Mexican cuisine, Egyptian, international cuisine) in the restaurant there are two coffee machines, fruits and vegetables are all fresh. I recommend the hotel! As for money (excursions, taxis, purchases of oils, etc. ), bargaining is required, otherwise the vacation may be spoiled by disappointment that you were scammed for money. . .
