Very nice hotel, new and fully refurbished, no inconvenience for 2 weeks. The rooms are modern, well equipped, there is even a telephone in the toilet. Shower, hair dryer, large mirrors and one with magnification. Refrigerator, air conditioning, TV, balcony with a table and chairs. Swimming pools with slides, like in a water park, there are playgrounds, animation, and many pleasant moments for children.
I recommend this hotel to everyone: with a company, one at a time, young and old. But I recommend it with caution to those with children. Think it might be better to find a hotel with a calmer sea. Before lunch, there is always wind, waves and a strong current 20-30 meters from the edge of the reef. Many settle in small shallow mini-lagoons on the reef itself. They have warm water, fish, but an adult cannot swim. And after dinner the people
a lot, getting in and out of the pontoon is difficult, you have to wait in line for 2-3 minutes.

The Rehana Sharm Resort itself is officially 4 stars, but you can give 5 stars: for the beautiful territory - just a botanical garden, for excellent food - they are fed from 7 am to 2 am: in bars, restaurants, on the beach, pools. At the entrance to the main restaurant, there are Egyptian women from whom you can take plastic boxes for food with you. 2 times a week you can sign up for dinner at a themed restaurant: Italian, Mexican, seafood or Indian. I was in the
Indian - I liked it, but I didn’t sign up for the rest, there was enough variety in the main restaurant.
The hotel is on the 2nd line from the sea, but the sea is very close and on the 2nd floor in building 9 it was clearly visible. To get to the sea, you have to go through a tunnel, beautifully designed and well lit, then through the territory of Rehana Royal Beach on electric cars for 19 people. The shuttle runs continuously. All the way from the reception to the beach took no more than 5 minutes. Time is not limited, but you can’t swim in the sea at night - this is in all
Sharm hotels. You can also take a walk outside the hotel, on the contrary, there are shops across the road, two banks with currency exchange, the rate of $ 1 = 5.7 pounds.
I bought excursions at the local travel agency Sinai Voyage from Gena and Cheburashka. They have very cheap prices and good service. The program is standard. I went to Jerusalem for $ 80, everything was fine, the guide was Russian-speaking, the buses were comfortable, insurance was included. Many people buy quad bike rides and boat trips, the prices are also small 20-30 dollars per person. By the way, you can buy local
a SIM card for $7, at a hotel it costs $20. With a local card, a call to Russia is cheaper than via roaming, something like $1 per minute. How to get to this tour company: you need to walk to the left of the hotel without crossing the road, within 10 minutes of walking. First, a quiet place with a mosque, then the "Biking Way" sign - a bike path and a rental. A bit of an empty place with palm trees, then shops, the Park Inn hotel, a bazaar and shops. Then a pharmacy called Boots Parmacy, and opposite the Grand Plaza Hotel. The office of the Gena and Cheburashka travel agency is located on the left, behind the Boots pharmacy, after the super market, if you walk further there will be the Sharm Bride hotel.

Souvenirs, fruits, T-shirts, etc. it is better to buy in Hadaba in the Old Market, because. in the Nabq area, everything is at the price of an airplane. A taxi will cost $10, but save a lot more. And on the minibus you can for 2 pounds, but not so comfortable. The bus from the hotel costs $3 per person one way to Naama Bay or the Old Market, i. e. if there are four of you, it’s better to take a taxi. Near the first gate to the Old Market, opposite across the street near the cafe, there is a Currency Exchange - it works around the clock, the rate is $ 1 = 5.75 pounds.
