We were in Morgan Azur (Taba) from 8 to 15 September 2009. I don’t know about anyone, but we liked it (especially since we were in Egypt for the first time). Five of us went: my husband and I and our 7-year-old daughter and another married couple, and the right company is already the key to a successful vacation! Yes, there are indeed inconveniences: it takes 3 hours to drive from Sharm, the beach is not entirely landscaped, almost every 2 days there is a strong wave on the sea and the wind... But if you are going to look for flaws, and not to relax mentally and physically, then you are definitely not here. And now I'll tell you what I liked. Firstly, the tour operator Ahmed met us at the airport, he fulfilled any whim while we “packed” and drove. Secondly, upon arrival at the hotel at the reception, we asked for rooms next to each other and what do you think? Without additional payments and conversations, we were given two double rooms of the first level with an exit through the window directly onto the lawn (the 3-story building was behind us, and as it turned out later, these were the best rooms). The room has air conditioning, a safe, a mini-bar with a couple of bottles of mineral water, tea, coffee was updated as needed, two huge beds that can really stand everything, a bathroom - not every house has one, and most importantly: EVERYTHING WORKS!!!
Having thrown our suitcases, we went to dine at the main restaurant, naturally celebrated our arrival and then our cultural vacation began...... During the day and in the evening animation (we especially liked the dark-skinned Mike, well done, but he left early and was replaced by the Syrian Dzhonichka-dushka, the only one, as it seemed to us, who likes to communicate with Russians), children's animation during the day in a bungalow on the beach and in the evening in the amphitheater. At first, our daughter was bored - in Russian, no one is “be” or “me”, and then she met a Russian girlfriend, and dad and mom ceased to exist in principle. By the way, there were only 11 Russians there, according to our calculations. Mostly there are Slovaks, Poles, Czechs. You can be absolutely calm about the children there: there is nowhere to go from the hotel territory, the staff loves kids very much, and video cameras monitor the territory around the clock (I happened to get into the security room when my miracle woke up at 11 pm and went to look for us; and she She was not at all frightened, it was we who were looking for her with bulging eyes). Sun loungers occupied in the morning (did not sleep, the difference of 2 hours standard time affected), during the day they alternated the sea with a swimming pool, water polo, aqua aerobics, volleyball and boccia.... It is not known who was more happy - adults or a child! Towels are free, no one touches things (just remember Mother Russia), between the three pools there is a bar; drinking, drinking is tolerable; nearby food in an Italian restaurant. We took a fancy to the chairs in the pool near the bar.
Oh, it's funny: on the very first evening I went to the reception desk to demand an extra bed for the child. Without understanding a word, the next morning I turned to our tour operator, who explained to me that if we had single beds in the room, then the child would certainly have been given an extra bed. And since we have two large ones, we can be on one bed, and the child on the other. Well, they didn't know the Russians very well! Hearing my words that I came here to relax, Mohammed smiled so-a-a-k that I had buried my dream of a separate bed forever... You can’t imagine, but when we went into the room after dinner, we didn’t even immediately notice the same huge THIRD bed! And then we didn’t find any more minuses !! ! We left a dollar in the room a couple of times, friends never - there is no difference: they clean every day, they put water on. etc. They didn’t go to Jerusalem, it was a pity for the time and the child, but on the other hand they rode on a yacht all day, swam in the open sea three times with masks and flippers. Excursions were taken directly at the hotel for $ 45 + $ 23 for a child. And what a fabulous massage they do in the salon: first a sauna, then a jacuzzi, then a wrap with coconut flakes, and only then an hour-long baldness under the firm hands of an Egyptian from the tips of his toes to the tips of his fingers! The next day, a full body mask. Heaven and more! Recommend.

Prices in the shops at the hotel are almost the same as in the airport of Sharm. So shopping should be arranged not here, but 10 minutes drive from the hotel (a taxi driver will take you there and back, and even wait for you while you are walking for $ 15).
Special thanks to the tour operator "CAPITALTUR", the Boeing-747 aircraft from TRANSAERO, the "all inclusive" system, and the prices for the special offer DO NOT BELIEVE: 2 adults + 1 child. for $813 and 2 adults. for 702$!! ! They took $500 with them, not all of them were spent. No matter what you say, but the rest directly depends on your mood. We came to rest - so rest on your health, closing your eyes to all visible and invisible shortcomings. In general, if there is an opportunity, pack your suitcase and go to Morgana Azur, where the sea, the sun, no work, fuss and home “marten”, and after returning you will remember “aram zam-zam, arassi” for a long, long time and dance “ baby-boom"!! !
