I will sign everything in detail, when I myself was looking for reviews, I had little information.
I was with my husband from 27/08 to 03/09, the first trip to Egypt. We flew from Zeus Travel, met Biblio Globus.
The flight (charter) went perfectly, Mukhamed met us - a very pleasant and polite man.
Check-in is the most important and most noticeable minus of our holiday. We arrived at the hotel by 8 am, the meeting guide went further with the arrivals, having previously explained what and how. She reminded me about the bracelet, they constantly asked about the number (if there were free ones before), but there was nothing, they settled only from 14/00. There are often only two people at the reception, a little sleepy and disorganized. Ali is probably the most cunning) immediately began to say "the standard there are two beds, I'll look for you with one big room" and smiled sweetly) We got two Alyonkas and 50 bucks, there was no less (no money was exchanged.
The room is quite normal, 1755 near the reception. Balcony overlooking the courtyard, there is a small pool. The bathroom is normal and clean, everything is in order (the lock broke right away but was fixed the next day), one minus is the water smells a little, the door was constantly closed to the bathroom. The bed is large, the room is clean, all the furniture is serviceable and quite good looking. The TV set is old) ancient)) works, 2 Ukrainian channels, one Russian and a couple of musical ones also grew. maybe. Conder is 100% working. Cleaning was every day, the boy is young, for 8 days they gave 4 times a tip of 10 pounds. Once we made swans from towels, cleaning is not very diligent) but the floor was washed every time, towels were changed, soap gel and other things were always there too.
Food - a lot of food, different, a lot of tasty things. On the fourth day, I got fed up with beef, cheeses, fish, chicken, etc. )) I started eating more fruit) There are a lot of pastries, tasty and sometimes very tasty) Wine is disgusting, we tried cocktails a couple of times, it’s better just to drink a glass of beer. In addition to the main restaurant, there are two more - Italian and Chinese, we did not sign up there. A bunch of bars throughout the territory - during the day you can eat everywhere - pizza, hamburgers, nuggets, potatoes, ice cream by the pool and on the beach. Food is plentiful and everywhere. It is the same with water (there is always drinking water, they gave out as much as needed in the patio bar, and the cleaner left a bottle per person), soda is poured in any quantity and everywhere.
We never swam in the main pool, the sea is much better) There is a small pool on the fourth floor, it is almost in the shade and the water is cool! ! There is almost always no one there, I managed to swim there for a couple of days after the beach, I regret that I didn’t go to him before.
Sea! Two short pontoons, many and different fish. Whoever says that it’s not enough, I’m scared to think that there’s a lot for them)) near the shore I saw a small slope, we saw more along the corals. People saw moray eels, I sunbathed)) Many hedgehogs, frightening but interesting. Under the pantone there are just a bunch of fish, both large and small. In the paddling pool we probably saw a flounder (flat and the color of sand, barely noticeable), there are a lot of them - it was already scary to walk later, I was afraid to step on, but they are nimble)) We saw igloo fish, my husband saw large ones in the sea, and I have a smaller one near the shore, see 50. My husband swam along the beach, then he saw even more of everything, and I’m closer to the pantone - I’m not a confident swimmer without a vest. Crabs crawl all the time, both small and larger, but very shy. Many wrote that water is like milk, you will not feel the difference from the air, this is nonsense. During our period, the water was excellent, I felt the difference and even cool, I would say. The heat is yes, but also tolerable and tolerable. We didn't spend much time in the room during the day.
Tours! 1. Turkish Bath - do not buy!!! ! They take you to a hotel nearby, everything is not organized there. To the sauna, then to the Russian bath (the steam that you can’t see anything, and the floor with the bench are hot) - the heart wanted to stop) Then peeling - now it’s funny, but then it hurt))) With a hard washcloth and forcefully massage the body, it’s a nightmare, I thought they’d tear it off skin))) Then they lathered it with soap and into the shower, then maybe go to the jacuzzi))) I won’t even tell you - a pool with an open tap)) then a face mask, tea and home. All for 5 minutes - procedures, you stand more and blunt where to go. We laughed afterwards t such service.
2. Idyll! ! Sea walk with 4 stops - 115 bucks was for two, take it! Masks, fins, vests were given out. The team was also very excellent, guide Fathi, divers Ali, Mohamed and others like that)) We rode on a banana and a tablet in the most beautiful lagoon. Then the Ras Mohammed Reserve, we saw a turtle, a lionfish, and so on. Very deep and beautiful! Then a delicious lunch - seafood! Shrimps and squids were given out a little at a time, but then you could take a supplement whoever wanted. And then beauty! the last stop is a disappearing island - a piece of white sandy beach among corals in the sea. Beauty, close stop and then swim a little. Very beautiful! Photos and videos have always accompanied us, well done guy - everyone had a couple of mini-photo sessions and videos under water. We bought a disc -25 bucks.
3. o. Tyrant. 88 bucks for two, with one dive. Worse, it's purely for divers, or maybe the team got caught. Who just bathed with masks is not enough! just swam and are already calling back. But beautiful landscapes and swimming places!!
4. Super moto. Safari from 15.00 to 21.30 approximately. First, we go for 40 minutes to the Bedouins for tea, then it’s not far to ride camels - we didn’t ride, it’s a pity they are ugly ((. Again, it’s not far to drive to the Bedouins for dinner, We sat for 30 minutes, drank tea. Then there was dinner - probably from the hotel ) well, very similar)) Then the show! ! The guy in a skirt with backing was dancing, I have never seen anything like this, very beautiful and unusual! ! And a fire show! Well done boy, cool! And back about 15 minutes a short way in the dark with headlights through the desert! ! It's a thrill!
Soho Square - to the left of the hotel exit, 10 minutes at a slow pace. A bunch of all sorts of shops, cafes, a singing fountain - so-so, a bunch of all sorts of figures all over the street, I liked them the most. There is a good WiFi signal, and many go for this. We were not interested there. The hotel has free WiFi at the patio bar, opposite the canteen, but when there are a lot of people, the signal is bad. Bartender password.
I'm not a good swimmer, I'm afraid of the depth - I swam with the thought "how high"))) And even with glasses, my eyesight is bad. I didn't know how to swim. But, this is all garbage, the water is really salty, it holds, but I'm still a coward - I bought children's armlets)) swam in them))), but better buy a vest ! ! Not for children, but ordinary, with him it’s just the sea knee-deep, it’s not scary at all. And I also realized that fins are cool, with them you swim like a fish. We bought masks at the hotel - from 15 and up, we took 20 bucks each. But if you want to dive, take ordinary silicone ones, then my husband realized that with plastic on the nose it’s hard to blow through the nose at a depth, so that the ears are postponed. I swam in lenses, everything is cool, I put on a mask and swam, you can see everything and the salty water came in, the lenses don’t care. Then once without lenses, and lo and behold! visible as well. Maybe a little worse, but through the mask and water you can see quite normally without lenses and glasses. I have -2 in both eyes.
I forgot about the free tour - you can go to the city to the pharmacy and souvenirs. The city is not very beautiful, in the pharmacy there was a short lecture about oils and a sample of the same oils - it was delicious and pleasant to the skin)) We bought Tamardin tea, Sanadl oil, and black cumin. Souvenirs are not bought, bought Arafatka for 5 bucks. At the hotel, Gosha took this one, and sold the big ones as needed, and of the best quality. A pleasant man, he will make discounts, he will not sell bad things.
The ticket cost 1000 bucks for 8 days for two. Acquaintances flew with us to the hotel Mexicano, it seems that saving 200 bucks and the rest is just tough. We rested like kings. Siwa is a great hotel, maybe not as 5 ** as anywhere else, but we are satisfied. The food is full of delicious, the sea is gorgeous, you smile at people and you smile in return. Another minus is the Russians, not all, but it happened. Sunbeds are constantly covered with the same people, towels, scarves, glasses (something) will be left on a sunbed by the beach and the pool, although they are not going to the beach today. Or they sunbathe on two mattresses for a sunbed, and next to it there is an empty piece of wood, and there is nothing to lie on freely and on. And one night we woke up from mats and screams in the hotel lobby. Drunk Russians staged some kind of concert)) Then there were swearing and shouting in the yard. Pretty annoying.
I think this hotel is worth going, maybe next. once again we will return to it.
