I worked in a 5 * hotel and my review is professional-amateur in nature. Read for those who are interested

1. Flight.

Hello dear Belavia! As always expensive and neat on schedule! Food is edible. Beautiful plane with cornflowers! Proud! Respect)

Tourists began to shake like Pinocchio immediately upon arrival. Representatives of the tour operator Join UP collected $ 27 from each tourist at the counter: 25 for a visa and 2 for registration. Well, if they really filled out registration cards! They just took money, issued cards and sent them to fill it out! They didn't even give samples!

Thanks to the wonderful girl Inna from the Belarusian travel agency, who warned us and printed out a sample to fill out.

LIFE HACK #1: A visa costs $25 (to Sharm for free), period.

2. Settlement.


We had an early flight and at 9 am we were already at the hotel. Check-in is officially at 14.00. Dear friends! Swearing at the reception and phrases like *I have already paid for the day* and other arguments do not work!
Don't waste your nerves! You came to restore them))

LIFE HACK #2: $5-10 and friendliness will help you quickly check in)

3. Numbers.

The hotel is old, like the Egyptian pyramids (People who produce the so-called renovation hardly understand the meaning of this word! Everything is done anyhow, but quietly and imperceptibly for tourists.

HACK #3: choose newer hotels

4. Territory.

Big and nice green. Lots of palms, tamarinds and all that. There is a place to take beautiful photos) Apart from the fact that I had to walk between the cars ! ! Arab families came to the hotel in cars and parked them outside their apartments. How about making a parking lot? If I wanted to take a walk between the cars, I would stay in

Minsk ((A steam locomotive and a bus go around the territory (who are too lazy to walk). Some of the buildings are closed or being repaired. We climbed into one abandoned house (as my child says) so there were even carpets, furniture, chandeliers, magazines of 2010, pigeons made their nests .
Cool)

5. Water park.

Is a song! Really big and free. My child was delighted! (one of the reasons why we chose this hotel) Except for one unpleasant story. All Arab families mostly rested in the water park. And then two Arabs did not share something and began to swear. After a couple of minutes, both on the one hand and on the other, a * support group * gathered. They started screaming and pushing each other. Chaise lounges, plastic tables and frightened tourists began to scatter to the sides. When they began to build * tools of arguments * from umbrellas and mops, I grabbed a towel and rushed to look for the child! They stopped all the slides, people began to quickly leave the water park, the security service (if you can even call them that) could not do anything. It was like a small Arab revolution. It was scary. I didn't feel safe even in the hotel.

HACK #4: Remember! your safety is in your hands

6. Nutrition.

Normally edible. The fruits looked like they had been sick for a long time. Only the watermelon was delicious. One day there were no fresh vegetables at all, it's good that a group of Chinese tourists came! They were obviously preparing for their settlement) Assortment: Chicken, turkey, kebab on the grill, beef, pasta, vegetables in different variations. The table wine is normal, I didn’t like the beer, the rum is nothing like that). The staff (shabby looking) cleaned everything quickly, but not very clean. On the 3rd day, we were very poisoned (and were not the only ones) and moved from toilet to toilet for a day ((. Fortunately, a compatriot suggested pills

HACK #5: Take your pills. better not be useful than looking for or buying at a pharmacy for $ 20

7. Service.

Badly. Very bad. The level of staff is extremely low. Somehow my daughter and I were relaxing in the pool near the central building and she wanted a glass of sprite. And they didn't let us! Can you imagine? ? A glass of sprite!! ! For a child!! ! Argument: the color of the bracelet (we lived in 4 *).
I said that this is a bad service and I will definitely write a review - they brought 2 glasses of sprite and water and an apology ...but the impression has already been formed. Tourists (there is a different attitude towards Arabs) who are accommodated in 4 * cannot eat in 5 * canteens and even take drinks in bars (((sad of course

8. Beach.

1500 meters?? ? I ran in the mornings and kept thinking: I’m overcoming 1.5 km quickly)) I decided to check on the tracker and ...surprise! 640 meters, half of which are fenced with buoys. Entrance to the sea only through authorized cleared entrances. The beach is sandy, cleaned on time. There are small coral reefs where you can admire the fish. Buy a comfortable full face mask for $10 and enjoy.

9. Shopping. Just bargain))

And finally, LIFE HACK # 6: follow the Muslim holidays and you will have happiness and a calm, relatively clean vacation

Somehow like this.
