We bought the ticket 2 weeks before the holiday, the hotel on the site chose itself, was surprised to be the first line or near the sea. The sea here is about 3 minutes on foot, you only need to cross the road, there is a person who helps to cross, stops transport if necessary. Sandy beach, gentle sunset, but there is a berth for ships, so the sea is not very clean, sometimes I saw colored stains on the water and could smell the fuel that fills the boats.
The hotel is small, the rooms are old, but they are updated, painted.


We arrived in the morning, there was a night flight. They settled us in 30-40 minutes. We were the last to arrive at the hotel (we stayed at the airport because our tourists were waiting in line for seven tickets), so the latter received a room at no extra charge. They clean every day, change towels as well, but for some reason they were brought after we came from the sea, washed and went to dinner. That is, we come to the room, and there are no towels, only small, for the feet and all.
Food here for unpretentious tourists, breakfast is poor, every day is the same, lunch is better, and most are given for dinner, meat is given little, everyone is put on a plate a small portion, once there were grilled chickens, fish is always there, many vegetables and stews and salads, sweets, fruits were green melons, oranges, rarely pomegranates, dates. Of the drinks, I took only beer, tea and water, and the rest can be taken with you from duty free, because there are no quality drinks and coffee is also bad, and if you want good, pay money. Water is given once only when settling in a room on the skin of 1.5 liters. In the restaurant there is a cooler with water, you can type in a glass, hang an inscription that you can not type in bottles, but I typed in a small yet senior manager has not seen.

The hotel is well located, close to the old town, 10 minutes walk. In the evenings we walked to the mosque, took good photos there, went to a seafood restaurant, there are many of them, we counted only 3 seats on one street.
Shrimp can be bought from 7 to 15 dollars. / kg (depending on size), you can bargain if you take more. We took 1 kg for 12 dollars. (huge), and then for another 4 and 5 dollars. half a kg, if you eat in a restaurant for $ 1 more expensive, you can still take with you, everything is fresh and delicious, just out of the window.

A separate topic of the tour, I took a yacht for $ 50 from the guide and was dissatisfied, because we were promised one thing, but in fact it turned out quite differently. Our guide Joseph, saying that it would be a luxury yacht, lunch with seafood and 20 people on the yacht, but it was the other way around. Do not take a tour guide! ! ! ! ! On the beach you can take tours, there is Mario, contact him. He sold for $ 10-15 a trip to the Ras Muhammad Nature Reserve in a glass-bottomed boat, a berth nearby, departing annually. You can take two parachutes for the brave, a banana.

Evenings animators organized competitions every day, entertained guests with performances of oriental dances, dances with skirts, discos were not, but we organized ourselves several times (it was good that there was company), took the initiative. Animators offer a Naama Bay disco every night for $ 10. Anyone can go.
