We can say that the hotel is super, everything is new, the room is large, the plumbing is excellent, the territory is huge, there are 15-20 people. Accordingly, the beach and near the pool is almost always empty. While the upper cases are working, the lower ones are in the process. Therefore, there are more workers than vacationers, but this does not bother, although they stare at the girls very well. The food is excellent, but so far only half-board. The “buffet” system operated while the Germans were there... they left and the “Russians” were limited - one salad, meat or fish, and dessert. We ate normally, and it’s nice when they bring it up and serve it. A day later, the Turks or the Israelis arrived and, please, fly in. This shows the attitude towards "ours". Although our ticket cost $325, it was still unpleasant. Positive: staff, kitchen, coral, space. What I would attribute to the minuses: 1) far in the desert, 2) the shuttle runs inconveniently - there 9-30 back 12-30, there 17-00 back 21-30 (and dinner? ), 3) wind, 4) in the village you need to look for fruit (they didn’t give strawberries at the hotel. Separately, about PEGAS and excursions. We were interested in a tour to Jerusalem, so the Pegasus broke $ 220 per person, and on the street - 120. Naturally, we took it on the street in the Palma Bedouin Safari from Akhmeta (see photo). Already the jeep on which we were brought to the bus scared me, the bus itself was full, but the main thing was that we were not given a visa to Israel. That is, they gave us to others from Ukraine, but we were stupidly not on the list of the group. From Taba we we traveled at our own expense - $ 40. Actually, the guide from the Egyptian bus (the Arab "Dima") met us at customs, put us in a tarantayka and promised (20 minutes) that the money would be returned to us (sorry, I didn’t take a picture of him). , after a sleepless night at 10-00 in the office to Akhmet... there is no money, they will be in the evening or tomorrow and not all, but we ourselves are to blame for the 160 dollars that the Ukrainians. Then the search for the police and meeting with Akhmet in a tourist policy. There is no money again, and so the last two days. I managed to snatch $ 230 and that's the glory of the police officer. Lost 50 dollars for two days of rest, a lot of nerves.
A few more words about the hotel. This is not 5 stars, not enough chic - the deck chairs are plastic, in the bathroom there is only a shower, slippers, bathrobes, fragrances - know. In Tunisia, 4 is much better. But you can’t call the hotel a triple either - a huge territory, a chic pool, waterfalls, flowers, a digital safe, Wi-Fi in the lobby, all new beds, mattresses, but the TV is not plasma, and the cabinet doors no longer open. The gym was seen only through the glass - renovation, sauna, jacuzzi - renovation, etc. Diving center on site. There are no boards. There is no map yet. Lunch in the room 80 pounds. Accordingly, the price is $ 325 from Odessa. I think prices will rise over time - so why do you need it then. Judge for yourself…
