All creepy photos about this hotel and photos of cute elephants/crocodiles/flowers/men from towels are real!!!
When we went on vacation, we were aware of the reviews about the hotel, and, of course, we prepared as best we could (remedy for bedbugs / cockroaches, towels, etc. ). Summarizing all the reviews about the hotel, I can conclude that staying at the Dolphina Club Hotel is like playing a coin, lucky / unlucky.
In the early morning of June 8, our foot entered the territory of the Dolphina Club Hotel, after a couple of hours of wandering around the hotel (our stay started at 12.00), we realized that we were the only tourists (besides us, another woman from Russia lived in the hotel). They explained the situation to themselves by unrest in Egypt.

In general, that morning the hotel looked like a gloomy sight, like in a horror movie: one strange manager at the reception, a cleaner with a broom, a bartender / waiter running through and we, like white crows in funny shorts : ))..... We examined the territory, climbed onto roof: we saw a landfill, and collapses, and neglect.
The man at the reception, looking at our torment, offered to check us in earlier (we "unobtrusively thanked" ordered a room on the second floor)..... We settled, the room, as we found out later, was the best (I was horrified, thinking, what are the rest ).
Breakfasts, lunches and dinners until the last couple of days of rest looked like this: In a completely empty canteen, where there were half knives / forks / spoons and a plate with a cockroach and bags of ketchup (the cockroach was later removed, I checked : )) served by a nice guy, who called himself Sasha. In general, you come to the canteen, sit down at the table and wait....Then Sasha approaches, miraculously carrying a change of dishes for at least two people in two hands (he could have brought for four). The food was monotonous (the breakfast was the same every day, for dinner the chicken was replaced by meat....that's all the variety, though there were four kinds of strange soups).
Buffet for breakfast and dinner was the last two days.... We almost fell when we saw the canteen for dinner, the staff increased, dressed up, put flowers, made a good buffet. As a result, they realized that this miracle was due to the influx of Egyptian tourists (a couple of families with children arrived).
The remoteness of the hotel's beach and its gulf-like view, of course, upset, but as they say, you can come up with an alternative....There was a paid beach not far from the hotel, the money is small (25 tugriks per person), but it is much more interesting there.
As they say beautiful sea, cool weather compensate for everything!! !
