нам понравилось we liked

I went there in anticipation of a boring vacation away from civilization, because I knew that the hotel is located in the middle of the desert, you need to take a taxi to the nearest settlements... But! then I really liked it - a beautiful, calm, cozy, unobtrusive atmosphere, everything is clean, friendly staff, a fairly large territory. We had a room on the first floor overlooking the beach, you could go out from the balcony. There are many Russian vacationers, so there was no shortage of communication, and all the staff and those working on the territory of the hotel (salesmen, masseurs, etc. ) are trying to learn the language. The rest of the tourists: Poles, Czechs, etc. Pool 2 - at the main building (if you want with music, people, animation) and higher at the bungalow type of buildings (it's always quiet there). The food is good, heaps of meat, fish every day, a very good variety of pastries, drinks, as usual: cola, fanta, coffee, tea, alcohol, "juices" like Jupi. But water all day - you can collect bottles from the cooler. (more like a dining room) in the main building - always full of people, except for breakfast (at this time it is calm there). We tried to go to the upper restaurant for dinner and lunch - very cozy, hospitable (many are too lazy to go there).
The beach is good, clean, the water is clean, there is sand at the bottom (there is a special cleared line for those who are without slippers). You will swim a little further, and corals with fish (be sure to take a mask). The massages offered in the spa for 40-50-70 dollars do not justify themselves (especially the so-called, either Aphrodite, or Nefertiti with scrub, masks and sauna . . ), even though the masseurs are Egyptians and puff and flirt with you. But if you walk along the beach outside the hotel through a nearby hotel under construction to a campsite of palm tree huts (unfortunately, I discovered it for myself by the end of the holiday), you can find Semsem (one of the owners of this camp) - he (and not only him ) does an excellent massage and is half the price, and besides, in a slightly exotic setting.
Well done animators all day trying to offer something, stir up people (volleyball, exercise, water aerobics, darts, etc. ), every evening in an open bar on the second floor by the sea, an entertainment program with dances, songs, drinks (all inclusive). And from half past twelve until one o'clock you can still eat in the bistro bar near the main dining room (they take out some dishes (probably left over from dinner)).

Regarding excursions: small ones: 1) went for $ 30 to the nearest point (15 min drive) by taxi for shopping locally. market type. There, of course, everything is cheaper than in a hotel - you have to bargain. But I went there for fruit (they are there for a dollar for 1kg (except for mangoes) and juices) There are not enough fruits in the dining room, but! always is! For one we looked at the local landscape, sunset and evening lights - beautiful. We went from five to eight in the evening. 2) an excursion on motorbikes or whatever, shorter than four-wheeled motorcycles - class! True, we took an individual excursion - I like to drive off-road - on one side of the mountain, on the other - the cleanest sea with the mountains of Jordan . .
large: of course, Jerusalem! with the Dead Sea, Bethlehem. We didn't travel with Pegasus! and with Russian guides and 70 dollars cheaper. In the end, the guides are excellent. They stood, like everyone else, at the border there for 4 hours, but back an hour maximum. The Jews have become insolent - they earn on the holy land as best they can.
Our tour included the Dead Sea - an hour and a half, Bethlehem with the Church of the Nativity of Christ and Jerusalem with the Wailing Wall and the Church of the Holy Sepulcher. They were everywhere, they applied everywhere. Of course, everything is "galloping around Europe", but what can you do . . I would like to walk around Jerusalem for a day . .
Here, in general, that's all... unforgettable sunsets, beautiful sunrises, harmony, the sea...
