What do they offer instead of Albatros Aqua Park?
A tour to Albatros Aqua Park was bought, but the hotel was not opened and the opening dates are unknown.
Who is in the same situation? What do you offer in return?
We were offered free of charge to Moderna, but there the pontoon is not suitable for children.
For Aqua Blue, they ask for an additional payment of $ 300 (14 nights, 2 + 1).

In Modern for children there are visits from Pantone to sandy areas. An excellent choice for summer. Plus there are slides too.

Here at all it would not be desirable in the Modernist style. Nabq bay - winds, often a red flag.
Here the visits from the pontoon are not at all interesting for children. They don’t like to sit on the shore, ankle-deep in the input and poking around in the sand

Let your Travel Agent insist on aqua blue at no extra charge. If you had a hotel booked and paid for, then there is a high probability that it will work. Now they also settle in the aqua park, but nothing works there, except for one bar and pools, they go to eat in the albatross. Many had a situation like yours and they were settled in aqua blue. My friends had a similar situation and now they are in aqua blue.

Unfortunately, little depends on the travel agent in such a situation - most settlement issues are resolved upon arrival.

If the tourist is still in place, then believe me, a lot depends on the travel agent. Of course, the dates of the launch and the availability of the hotel are important, but if they offer places, but with a surcharge, then there are places. There is a travel agent who can only convey (sometimes, of course, problems happen with this) information from TO, but there is a travel agent who knows how to work competently and knows what can be achieved. I repeat. If the tour is paid, then it makes sense to demand a settlement in the aqua blue as an equally valuable replacement for the aqua park.

You can demand anything you want, just fuck what you get))
Free of charge - Modern, but when we realized that we wanted aqua blue - we decided to earn extra money. The surcharge is clearly equal to the price difference now in the markets with what has already been paid. It turns out early booking for one place went

The conditions for changing hotels depend only on the operator, and not on the agent.
If the operator does not relocate without additional payments, then nothing can be done.

Well, it’s hard to call an early booking if it was booked in July 2020. If it was a reservation before the whole covid situation, then there may be different options and a lot depends on the maintenance and whether deposit money was used or something else. Those options are plentiful. We don't know everything. But under normal conditions, if a tourist, through no fault of his own, cannot get into a booked hotel, then it is possible and necessary to demand.

In fact, you booked 5, and you must provide a hotel of at least a level. If we consider that aqua blue is 4 * and you want it yourself, then there should be no questions. Not so long ago I monitored prices and saw that modern was more expensive than aqua blue, as I don’t know now, I’m too lazy to delve into pricing on vacation, but it’s strange that they don’t agree to such a replacement.

What is a tour operator? (not a travel agency, namely TO: join up, anex?)
аватар -MaX-
Modern in retail seems to be 72 thousand UAH, and aqua blue is 58.
At the time of purchase, the aqua blue was $35 cheaper than the aqua park.
Then I will consider that it is equally valuable replacement.
Tour operator TUI and Compass (friends fly a couple of days later)
аватар agent_borabora
TUI is really replaced by another hotel only at the current online price.
аватар moy_contakt
Tui this season are not burned like a child .... They settle where they want, and often without any warning, but upon arrival they are confronted with a fact. But now I am resting in aqua blue and there are so many representatives of the arborvitae sitting here ..... 3 or more and all the time. Which is very strange. Somehow they activated, maybe they will start working normally .....

The water park and hotel at 4 is open and running. Only the water park is not working at 5.
аватар Natalia_Ocheredko
When is your tour?
I have on August 27 and the operator Compass said that the opening is scheduled for August 20!
аватар -MaX-
For 14 August. We were told that there would be no opening until September 1st.
And by the way, on the official website of the albatross there is no time and no dates for booking a water park.
All operators speak only in order to sell, and then twist their hands like this
аватар Natalia_Ocheredko
It's strange that they ask for an extra charge for 4 *, as far as I know ... Everyone who bought tours in Aqua Park is settled in 4 *, but today I read a review of people who returned from Aqua Blue the day before yesterday, so they wrote that only 5 does not work aquapark ????
Please let me know when you get there how it is...
аватар moy_contakt
I asked when they plan to open the albatross aqua park directly at the hotel and they don’t even give approximate dates, but they said that it’s not August or September ....
So think. The top five has one bar and a couple of pools. Everything else is in aqua blue and it's not very convenient, because it's far away. If I was offered a check-in in an aqua park, I would definitely refuse.
аватар Elena363696
I am now resting in Aqua Blue, 4 is fully operational, at 5 the water park does not work, it is mothballed and there are no plans to open it yet. Everyone goes to 4. At 5, they settle only in the buildings.
аватар -MaX-
Elena363696 but what about the occupancy in Aqua Blue? Over 50%?
Are there long queues at restaurants? Are the sunbeds occupied from 6 am? How about the sea with sunbeds?
аватар Elena363696
Filling is about 60%. The queue is only in the central restaurant, there is no queue in the far one on the 2nd floor. Sunbeds do not need to be borrowed. But the situation is changing every day, as people keep coming and coming. The beach is very bad. I do not recommend
аватар -MaX-
Elena363696 the beach is the one under the elevator?
If he is, I know him. We were at 18. For children of norms
аватар Elena363696
The elevator doesn't work. Everything is broken and littered. Not a beach but solid ruins.
аватар moy_contakt
Elena363696 Well, what are you talking about, what ruins. About the fact that the sun loungers have long been in need of replacement, yes, but in general, everything is fine. Those who have been before will understand. We walk through albatross beach in the morning. Back by bus. The entrance is excellent, as it was before. The beach was expanded to the old bar, there are enough sunbeds. In this regard, everything is excellent. Everyone swims. I can’t swim from Pantone, and my husband and children constantly swim with masks of fish watching.
аватар Elena363696
Why are you misleading people, there was a collapse and everything was closed, there is no expansion of the beach, everything is broken, everyone is planted like a herring in a jar on a piece of beach near a stone bridge. In front of an old abandoned bar, they even pulled a tape so that no one would go. I also walk through a non-working hotel and move far from the stairs, but there are no sunbeds at all and only rubbish and blocks, but at least you can see the fish. There are no reefs or corals here. This beach is not for children at all.
аватар moy_contakt
I am not misleading anyone. When we were from 1.07 to 8.07, a piece of the beach worked, now I'm back at the hotel from 31.07 and it was expanded, because they stopped working to strengthen the wall near the elevator. The sunbeds are almost up to the old bar. There is enough space for everyone. I'm sure if there are more people, sunbeds will continue to be put up, it's just not necessary. Specify what exactly is broken, otherwise I do not know. And yes, I rested in this hotel before the collapse and I know how and what happened before. There are small reefs and fish in the volume more than for amateurs and children, it is much safer than from Pantone, when there is one staircase for everyone to enter and exit and a crowd of people. Who are cramped and crowded go further and bathe in solitude.
аватар Elena363696
We just have a different vision of the sea and the beach. To each his own. You need to go to this hotel if you like a water park, but if you are going to the sea, then you are not here.
аватар moy_contakt
I am in this hotel primarily because of the beach (entrance without pantones, sand, you can also see the fish). Children can easily go into the sea from the shore (I was in different hotels, I know what I’m talking about) The water park is a great addition to my husband with children (I don’t need it at all, I have never left a single slide for all the time, oh, not mine). Yes, to each his own.

I totally agree with you about the beach.
As for me, Alva Prak and Arva Blu give the best combination of water park and beach in Sharm.
There are hotels where the beaches are better, but there is no water park.
But the child needs everything at once! Therefore, and once again opted for these hotels
