I want to tell you about the rest at the Otium Amphoras sharm 5 * hotel.
The hotel is good, the staff is helpful and friendly.
Who is resting? Ukrainians, Europeans, Kazakhstan.
Animation during the day and in the evening, there is sports animation, massage on the beach, SPA. Beaches with lagoons, there is an entry into the sea, you can swim a little from the shore, there is an opportunity for children to swim on the shore, it is very convenient.
Internet: wi-fi is available in the restaurant and at the reception (it works well, often there is no place to sit down ???? . If you forgot something at the hotel, there are shops where you can buy a lot of things. For example: corals from 3-5 $, flip flops $5, popular mask on the internet $25, doctor's consultation €50, sun creams $5.8, 10.25.
The most important food))) the choice is large, a lot of everything: meat, fish, vegetables, side dishes, beans, salads, buns, fruits, cakes, grilled food, seafood. There are local dishes, to be honest - I haven’t tried it, why? Something outwardly did not like, something not appetizing at all, I did not want to experiment. But the soups are delicious (mashed soup). Further. . . the restaurant has a children's area, there are small tables, chairs, TV with cartoons and food for children. I watched, tried (yes, sprouted rice - I wouldn’t eat mine for sure : )), but every day there is something new, there is a dietary one.
Cons of the hotel:
- juices in the restaurant - not yuppies, but not great either, but they can be replaced with something else (water);
- poor cleaning in the rooms (maybe I'm harmful, but I like cleanliness and so that everything shines) ????;
- outdated plumbing in the rooms;
- do not have time to set tables in a restaurant (sometimes it is difficult to find cutlery, napkins);
- the inventory in the room is a bit old (towels, bedding), sometimes the towels are torn, duvet covers without Velcro, pillowcases in spools ((. In some places you can see dirt on blankets, mattresses, curtains.
Pros:
- nutrition;
- Beach (I didn’t see by the sea that there was nowhere to lie on a sun lounger (in the morning by the pool, yes, this is a problem);
- air conditioning in the room, Ukrainian channels;
- mini bar replenished (1 large bottle of water, 4 small, 2 juices, 2 small chocolates) - free of charge, over and replenished;
- the sea and the possibility of entering the sea;
- evening animation until 22.00-22.20 end, even if the room overlooks the amphitheater, it's not scary not so loud ????;
- once again the sea (swimming with a mask).
I will add from myself! Take care of yourself, acclimatization is different for everyone. Take medicines, an electro thermometer, antipyretics, etc.
What can happen?
- from eating, drinking, abdominal pain and diarrhea.
- you can rest in the shade under an umbrella, but still burn out, yes, the sun is burning here, you can burn out and not stay in the open sun for a long time, the wind blows well ???? .
Tours:
- A trip to Jerusalem - $100 per person.
- The Pearl of Sharma - the coolest and best excursion program in terms of composition - $ 70-80 / person.
- Tiran Island + dive - $35 per person (the easiest one).
- a trip to a wild white sand beach that lasts only 2 hours a day + diving - $ 60 / person.
- 4 wonders of the world - DBL - 50$/person
A little about food!
The food selection is varied and quite large. There is steamed food (tough beef, carrots, zucchini are often undercooked (taste tasteless to me). There are also spicy dishes with local spices (I haven’t tried many things). There are salads (I haven’t tried, as these are mixed products and somewhat then refueled) appearance did not attract attention.
Separately, soups, there are delicious puree soups, onion or seafood (crabs, there are also vegetables, broth without fat).
Also eat: boiled eggs, fried eggs, scrambled eggs. Milk porridge (vermyshel, oatmeal), pancakes.
Of course french fries, meatballs, burger.
Donuts, pancakes. Stewed vegetables, grilled. Grilled meat and seafood.
Pasta, lasagna (didn't like it).
A lot of different sweets (did not try, not a sweet tooth), but I saw that people took a lot.
Fruits: oranges, pamela, grapes, pears, various dates, figs, pomegranate.
Side dishes: potatoes (various), rice (various), noodles, pasta, Chinese noodles.
Drinks: sprite, cola, pepsi, water, tea, cappuccino, local juices - not yuppies, but not like juice either.
For 10 days of rest from food, none of us felt bad (including a 4-year-old child).
Children from 3 years and older have something to feed, but up to 3 years... a little problematic. In general, it all depends on what the child is accustomed to, what he is used to eating.
Dinners are delicious!! ! Meat, fish, seafood on the grill. Risotto, pizza. . .
Swimming pools: section for children, relaxation pool, pool with 3 slides. Near the kids club, a playground near the beach.
Beach - there are low tides, but it does not interfere with rest, a reef, fish swim. The situation with sunbeds - you can always find a place, the main pool is more difficult, but also possible. Someone always leaves and someone comes. Yes, there are sun loungers that are occupied for several hours, without an owner.
Recommendations on how to avoid or reduce the manifestation of acclimatization to a minimum:
- always wear a hat, lubricate the skin with a protective sunscreen;
- in the early days lead a measured lifestyle, observe moderation in eating, bathing and sunbathing;
- from 12-17.00 it is desirable to avoid direct sunlight (until 16.00 exactly);
- the lifestyle of local residents is preferable: at lunch you can sleep, or go to places where there are air conditioners;
- in the hot daytime, do not overload the stomach. It is best to eat in the morning and in the evening, in the afternoon - fruits and water;
- avoid alcohol in the first days of rest;
Remove the symptoms of acclimatization systems will help green tea or tea with lemon.
Have a nice holiday!
