For the spring holidays we decided to relax with my daughter in the hotel Albatros Aqua Blu Resort 4 *, it was friends who took a tour of the Beach Albatros and we decided to be with them, because this hotel is very well advertised A. Krylov. Thus, the UIA airline flight was given 0.5 liters of water each without any complaints during the flight.
They were at the hotel in the afternoon, at the reception everyone was given questionnaires to fill out and offered to sit at tables. They approached and asked if we wanted a good room, she answered yes, but on the 1st floor and with 2 beds. But since such a number was not provided, they received a box of candies as a token of gratitude. Carriers of suitcases did not wait and went alone. Our building 11 - next to the reception, the entrance to the water park, Wi-Fi was good in the room. The room is fresh, new, beautiful, everything is intact and worked. Of course, the fact that one door in the closet, I did not like, I do not like things once in sight.
As well as the fact that the cleaner once twisted figures on the bed, hid in the closet pillows, bedspreads, moving our clothes (pleased shower - spacious and with a multi-level shower. There is a kettle. tea / coffee / sugar / water was replenished daily.

It didn't take long to meet Coral Travel. Gave to fill out a questionnaire with numbers, insurance and departure dates and offered tours with boooolshoy discount, we thanked, said that many times were in Egypt and saw a lot and went to rest.
The animation was, but not intrusive. The mini-disco was in the amphitheater at the Albatros Aqua Park Hotel, where evening shows were held - standard for Egypt. Once we had friends in the evening at Beach Albatros (we can not enter their territory after 18 hours), so the daughter of their mini-disco liked more and the show as well.
And there were many more vacationers in that hotel.
Tukan Children's Club worked, but without animators, you could just leave the children there to draw or play with toys, there is a playground nearby. Another children's club was in our 11th building, once we saw it open, but did not come, because there were many other interesting activities, such as swimming pools, water parks, the sea ...
Getting to the beach was not a problem if you saw a bus going (runs every half hour), waited and went, if not, then went on foot. Just cross the road carefully. Although during this period and not full occupancy of hotels, but on the beach there are few free sunbeds. They were always free only on the pier. A beach bar is available for all 4 hotels. There is a snack in the form of french fries, hot dogs, pasta, dates and vegetables. There is alcohol, beer and tea / coffee. Works until 5 p. m. Everyone is also urged to leave the sea and the pool at 5:00 p. m.
At the same time there is the last delivery from the beach.
The pool with a wave was unheated, with Melody Bar - warm (the bar is a good bartender, will always bring what you order to the counter in the pool), the farthest from the reception pool - the warmest, there were three jacuzzis, which included 16.30 to 17-00
Mosquitoes were practically present during this period. Although there were children whom they bit at night.

The food suited us completely. It was varied and quite tasty. Of course, there was not much abundance of food, but what was - quite edible. I really liked the grilled dishes, the fish was delicious, desserts for three, there was enough fruit and constantly added. There were strawberries, bananas, dates, white and red apples, oranges, tangerines, melons, guavas ...Standard breakfasts - eggs, pancakes, cereals, yogurts, rolls, fruits, jams. coffee, cappuccino, latte or chocolate.
Well, there is a self-service area with tea and coffee. I really liked the Concerto bar, behind the reception is there, delicious coffee, cocktails, rolls until 23:00. ).
Only one of the restaurants worked. You could have a snack on the food court near the Pirates Water Park. Ice cream (watery) was served in the bar under the big slides Albatros Aqua park. You could take a few at once, and then said 1 in hand (, (probably to combat the virus ((. Egyptian average alcohol, sometimes worse). ) Communicated with tourists who had the opportunity to eat in two hotels (had two bracelets), they said that it was in our fed better than in neighboring hotels, so we made the right choice).
I liked the area - in the evening you could walk through all three hotels. Shops are near Albatros Aqua park, Beach Albatros and near Palace Resort 5 *. We found the nearest pharmacy near the Albatros Palace Resort 5 * hotel, and even if you eat a little to the right of the hospital, it works until 9 p. m.
Watch for towels, there were tourists who had a rest with big companies and there were many children with them, then their towels disappeared ...
5 hours, our hotel was extreme, we just went to the store, where we were waiting for souvenirs, tasting sweets and drinks ...There were many reviews at the airport, but a large suitcase was opened to only one woman, everything was taken over and released. Water was not taken, had 2 bottles. 0.5 l. Scheduled departure. At the airport, before the passport control, everyone had to install a program of action at home, and those who failed to do so, wrote a statement to the representative of the Nat. police with a place of self-isolation, and took a photo of the passport.

Tests at the airport are done in several places - we have seen prices from 1500 (the first at the exit) and up to 750 UAH. - on the second floor in the departure hall of Boryspil airport. I flew in with a sore throat (all drinks with ice, although I always asked for no), so I did the test in my area, good thing it all worked out, not a virus. But two of our acquaintances who were at Beach Albatros, tested positive.
But everything is fine, and these unpleasant moments did not affect the warm memories of the holiday. We are glad that we had a rest in this hotel. Only our dad was enough, thank him for our vacation, we will definitely introduce him to other Albatrosses. . .
