The hotel is distinguished by sophistication, a special charm. (well, we like it and that's it! )
Beautiful area, friendly staff. . (The area is very beautiful, the staff, those with whom I had to communicate and this is 10 people: reception workers, Ibrahem Abd Baset, managers and waiters in the restaurant, in the sauna, and at the bars in both hotels, Tony from the travel agency at the entrance, bus drivers and just employees well, we were VERY friendly, maybe because I learned the basic phrases in Arabic and tried to speak? )
Upon arrival, they gave the keys to 3 rooms and took me on a square to show them. Chose in the middle - did not lose. Large pool with slide. (At the time of arrival, out of 800 people, only 40 of us lived in Sport, so they asked for the same room as before. But... it turned out that the furniture there was already bent, especially the bed... they changed the room, chose from 3 which is better. But still I had to replace the safe, scales, an armchair on the balcony... it’s not difficult for me. I chose it myself in the rooms where the cleaning was going on and changed it. The slides became already 3 but the normal one... it’s a pity they close early at about 4. Were at the pool twice in total, as the weather was a storm and on the last day after lunch)
The hotel is located on the "second line". Sport and Front are separated by an asphalt road without active traffic. To the sea on foot 10-15 minutes, depending on the mood. If there is no mood, there is a bus that runs every 10 minutes. (everything is just like that)
Good sea. There is a great coral reef and live corals. Lots of different fish. The beach is located in a bay that is protected in windy weather. Entrance to the sea on a pontoon, the length of which is about 30m. There is a small sandy area, which is good for kids (who can't swim) or just wanting to buy their feet. (The reef is not bad, especially if you swim to the right towards the Island behind the fence, I saw a stingray and....a moray eel 2-2.5 meters... swam over it for about 10 minutes... brrr it’s scary and of course there is a napoleon. The pontoon that was just removed for some reason one ladder and you have to wait to get out. The wind and the storm were one day - for a change, beautiful pictures turned out, and so the bay is well protected from the wind)
The rooms correspond to the description - somewhere around 35 sq. m. Filling is standard: shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, cap, nail file, comb, sponge for shoes, etc. Daily cleaning, change of linen and towels. Cleaned up well. (well, everything in the rooms has become older, but the TV set was changed to a modern one, accessories are given without problems, you can still ask for an extra + a bottle of water 1.5 per day, but I took 2. A couple of times they left us dollars for a good attitude and for two days they hung up not to clean... since we treat this without problems, but the towels were changed normally and their quality seems to have been bought new... )
Beautiful spacious restaurant, in the evenings, after dinner, live music is stylish and cultural. The food met our expectations. Meat, fish and grilled vegetables are good in the main restaurant. FREE fresh. Alcohol - all locally produced beer, wine - good, cocktails, as well as Pepsi, juices for free until 23:00. (The restaurant became somehow smaller chtoli... they moved the food to another place and it was sooooo spacious to eat in the amount of 5-15 people, I even had ONE and 5 waiters at breakfast a couple of times. The food was no frills, but there was fish and grill and soups and everything always in Egypt. The waiter brings wine, beer, whiskey... on the second day, by the time you come with a plate, everything is already worth it... I had to thank the dollar. There are no FRESH at all, but guava juice, mango and pineapple are not bad. But there is no entertainment. Front to dance belly dance and skirt dance and there was a magician... and that's all... AH what were earlier evenings in the restaurant... what 2 Singers sang... a fairy tale. You can’t go to the Front restaurant at all to eat a couple of times we sat at the bar above their main restaurant and watched a dance show... well, so-so… it’s very noisy, the places are not stuffy.
From the second day, we didn’t go to a restaurant for lunch, but ate on the beach in an Italian restaurant - pizza and soups. On the beach, beer and chips, juices from packages, ice cream, coffee and tea, cola and sprite - all day long. (Yes! The Italian restaurant rules! But you have to come to the beginning, then the pizza is simpler and sweets are not reported. But on the beach, if you are from Sport, then neither chips nor juices, nor even a grilled snack will shine for you. Everyone is banned... yes, offensively yes Only it is fashionable to take beer, water and ice cream down by the water. They explain - if you want to live well - buy a ticket for 200-300 dollars more expensive to the Front and without problems)
A chic SPA in a hotel on the first line - FREE OF CHARGE. For March, after the beach, spending two hours in a warm sauna or hammam is just wonderful. Sport also has a spa, but a small one. (A chic SPA is also ONLY for vacationers from the Front, I had to master a little of my own - it’s normal especially if you swim in the jacuzzi yourself, it’s a pity there is no hammam, only a bathhouse, but for a couple of days it was cool in the evening - it’s even nothing !!! )
Entertainment - tennis court, billiards, football volleyball field, gym with jacuzzi and sauna - free of charge; squash, horses (beauties), ice skates - for a fee. (everything is true, the horses are beautiful!! ! And they also saw them riding a carriage in the evenings, and....NIGHT... there was football like between local teams... cool !!! )
There is a disco at 23:00. There is also a FREE bus to the city. Recording without problems.
(probably the bus also had a ball only in the Front, we didn’t have it, there was a disco in the Front but... we didn’t get there. But in front of the main entrance, the travel agent Tony persuaded us to go on a moto safari in the evening..... it’s chic just don’t trust anyone and take a buggy for 5 dollars More expensive and fun at times....while the motorcycles there crawled one after another in the dust... the instructor and 2 cars drove through the desert at a speed of 50 km....100% impressions....much more interesting. And here again - the instructor was just a class !! ! Well, then, as always, a camel, Bedouin tea... I always read about it... and I thought how it is possible to take and drink tea in such conditions... but... survived without problems, delicious, especially if water is for money and tea is free... take take more water with you!! ! and if you filmed it yourself, then don’t take the video from them - it’s good to get a divorce, at least not 30 but 12 dollars paid)
On Soho Square, if you don’t go to a restaurant, ice rink, bowling, disco, bar, etc…. In general, you can come to see it once and that's it. There were no concerts this time. In the evening, too, after 12, I was alone and the Arabs. But, you can buy everything cheaper than in the hotel and in shops between hotels. Prices have almost halved....but it's like everywhere else. That is, if you do not buy EVERYTHING, then you can not go shopping to Naama and the old city. Although in a small market between Sports, they bought cheap and fairly fresh home kits for rent... and people take a lot there.
On the last day, we rented a room at 12.00, left things in the storage room and still rested until 17.00. Everyone enjoyed. The bracelets were brought home. (Yes, after 12 they cut off my wife’s bracelet, I didn’t wear mine on my arm - I can’t sleep with it and took it as a souvenir for myself, but we ate hamburgers and fries in Italian and at the pool bar without problems and drank in my pool what they wanted. No one found fault. Again: "Marhaba", "Shukran", "Sabah alkheir", etc. - will help to find a common language and understanding.
In general, I liked it. Although impressions and less. But rest is always good and good rest is even better!
