Своеобразный отдых. A kind of vacation.

Arrived alone at the hotel on 08/26/2010. According to the HB power supply system. It was getting dark. I was upset when I saw the number. 3 single beds of which one large did not work. Not only are some of the legs on wheels, but they also turned out at different heights. It was getting dark. Plumbing of the 90s of the last century, although the hotel is three years old (later I found out that the hotel was built more than 10 years ago, but it was not opened. By the way, there is a treasure of the same plan nearby, which has windows and doors... but there is already going on repairs and windows and doors - everything is skinned, puttied, etc. ). TV with grief in half shows RTR PLANET. It got dark. What I liked was a normally working air conditioner, a minibar refrigerator and a non-working electricity saving system, i. e. you can leave the room with a key and the air conditioner does not turn off. A moonlit path to the sea led from our beach to Saudi Arabia. Arabs were talking behind the wall. . . At 19.00 I went to dinner. Met 2 female Russians who arrived the day before. They resolved the issue with a guide from TEZ about moving to an equivalent hotel in Sharm.
About daily bread. Since the hotel is frankly small, I expected the worst. But the quality and quantity of food completely satisfied me. For dinner, soup, 2 types of hot fish meat, stewed or steamed vegetables, rice, fresh salads, cucumber-tomatoes, pickles, 2-3 types of bread, always 2 types of fruit (apples, guava, grapes, melon, watermelon).
Breakfast was modest, but still decent. Tea, coffee (lemon in the form of a dwarf lime on demand (as it turned out later, ketchup and chili sauce and mayonnaise). Delicious buns of 2 types, bread, butter, melted cheese, honey and jams, hard cheese, soft cheese, terribly salty cottage cheese, corn flakes, milk, 2 types of sausages, cucumber-tomatoes, milk pasta, bean tyurya (the locals ate it excitedly), sausages with onions and peppers and, if desired, an omelet with sausage fillings, mushrooms, tomato...

After dinner, walked around the pool with screaming Arab children. Dark. It's time to sleep.
Suddenly, at 4 am, my alarm clock rings on my phone. Waking up, I can’t find him to “kill”. Behind the wall, an Arab is swearing at someone. It was his alarm clock on his phone! And the call is like mine! Here is such audibility in the connectin rooms (the door is plywood and there is a gap of 3-4 centimeters from the floor to the door). Over the next hour, the alarm clock rang 6 times, 2 times called from the reception and 3 times the mobile phone rang. It was getting light. At half past five the shy neighbor left. No more sleep. At 6 o'clock in the morning, I went out to sea in a cheerful mood. The sun blinded her eyes. Having put on safety shoes, I went to conquer the Red Sea. After 25 meters, standing knee-deep in water, a shining depth opened up before me. Having dived, I immediately forgave this hotel for frankly crappy rooms, a beach in camel poop (caravans of these smelly animals in the morning go to BLUE HALL, and in the afternoon back to DAHAB along the sea along the beaches of all hotels from DAHAB to BLUE HALL), dirt around, annoying , like most Arabs, flies, the price at the hotel for a bottle of water is 2 dollars and a three-dollar beer.
The nearest water shop in Dahab is a 30-minute camel trail ride from the hotel. To the embankment - an hour. Or a taxi for 10 pounds.
Having bought water, I wanted to take a nap on the beach under an umbrella. Aha, scha-az! There, after 10 in the morning, the wind picks up and light objects begin to fly up. And the mattresses too. By the pool, too, take a nap is not fate. Children, Arab children. Swimming in the sea (reaching safely to the depths) turned out to be problematic with wind and waves. Then I found a relatively normal passage along the right border of the hotel (if you look at the sea) to a small lagoon. You can also freely swim from the pier of the Sea and Sun Hotel and the Tropitel Hotel. 20 minutes walk.

There is nothing for non-divers to do in the Blue Hole. Near the hotel the underwater world is cleaner and richer.
There are many decent restaurants on the waterfront of Dahab. The prices are normal.
Also, in 8 days I managed to go to Israel with Marwan Tours for $100. There are pluses - cheap and during the tour everything is clearly organized. Cons - they cannot organize excursions in accordance with their own schedule on their own website: they offered to increase the cost of the trip from Dahab on other days. As a result, the whole vacation with the help of this office was turned upside down, I had to urgently look for other travel options on the spot. Therefore, I didn’t get to Moses Mountain, but went to Cairo with TES for 87 bucks.
In the bottom line: the hotel is NOT for a beach holiday. If you like to swim with a mask, or a diver or a surfer, there is no desire to build up fat on the all-inclusive system, if you have come to travel, in short, if you do not want to sit in a hotel or you have a self-sufficient family in terms of entertainment and leisure, then MIAMI BEACH is very bad option. There is nothing else to do here. The hotel is a normal three-ruble note, and the rest turned out to be 4.
