We rested there from 15.12. 09-24.12. 09
Planned vacation in December, in Egypt. We went with Tez Tour, we chose the hotel based on reviews, we needed a family vacation with a child (2.3g). We stopped at the Royal Albatros Moderna, and were not even afraid that 80% of the vacationers were Germans, the rest were Italians, Poles, quite a bit of French and our Russians. The location of the hotel did not scare that it is the last operating hotel in Nabq Bay.
DEPARTURE
Since we flew (North Star) by charter, the delay was for an hour, during the flight everything was fine. They flew in, filled out the cards, I went up to one of the airport employees to ask where to go next, he took my hand and led me, my husband and child followed us. With his help, we did not stand in long queues either for stamps or at the control. In general, we went through customs in 10 minutes, in gratitude I gave this employee a large bar of good chocolate.
The first minus was when we received our luggage, one of the suitcases was broken (the handle was pulled out), so we advise you to wrap your suitcases with foil when departing. We were among the first to board the Bus, we had to wait a little while everyone was collected according to the list.
SETTLEMENT.
We quickly got to the hotel, where we were handed over to the receptionist, quickly filled out a questionnaire, put on bracelets, gave out a key and cards for towels, it all took a maximum of 20 minutes, the Germans who arrived earlier than us were still pissed off at the reception when we left. Our room was located in the building near the Relax pool, overlooking it. We were pleased that at the child's sleep hour there would be no noise and loud music near the pool.
ROOM.
Our room was on the 3rd floor, the floor was built on in 2009, so our room was decent. The room is standard, but the furniture is all in good condition, everything is clean and tidy, Kettle, mini-bar, safe, LCD panel.
The bathroom is clean, all plumbing is new, a shower with several modes and a massage head, a hair dryer is very powerful : ). Tea, coffee and sugar were constantly replenished. A very spacious balcony, they called the rep and asked to bring a clothes dryer, after 7 minutes they brought one and after 3 another : ) In 11 days, the operator Elena called 3 times and asked how we were doing, if everything was fine, how the rest was going, not do we need anything. Cleaned the room well, change of linen h / d, although my daughter soiled the sheets with felt-tip pens, they changed every day. Cleaned until 14.00, we dined and came to sleep for an hour already in a clean room.
STAFF.
The staff is like everywhere else, some are good and helpful, and some are not so good. Depends on the person himself. But we came across good ones, for a small baksheesh they will hurt themselves, but they will do everything you ask.
The guy who cleaned with us (my daughter called him Moidodyr) hardly spoke Russian and English, but he did the job 100%.
Our daughter took a collapsible doll with her and constantly this doll was lying around her room, naturally in disassembled form, and in the hour of sleep this Marusya stood on the table by the mirror assembled, all felt-tip pens, pencils and toys with books were neatly folded. I did not like the attitude of the hairdresser in the hotel salon. So he's run into Russians if he's allowed himself to start behaving like that. But, I won't talk about it. It was a small minus. The restaurant staff was good, some became friends.
They have a special relationship with children, they love them very much.
NUTRITION.
Food for every taste, there is even a diet, in the main restaurant. But we ate mainly in Italian, it was opposite our building. For breakfast, an omelette is prepared in front of you, you choose with what you want (onions, tomatoes, olives, cheese and ham), you want fried eggs or bake an omelet on only one side - please!
The choice is large: boiled eggs, grilled or boiled chicken sausages, hot toast, 4 varieties of breakfast cereals, pancakes with sauces, hot and cold milk, butter, cheeses. They bake awesome croissants and cakes in front of you - that's something!!! ! Real jam!! ! 3 varieties of jams, honey, fruit salads and yoghurt dressings, 7-8 varieties of tea, instant and custard coffee. The only negative in this restaurant was not freshly squeezed juices, or at least packaged. There were yuppies and gas drinks. For lunch there was meat, seafood, risotto, potatoes of two types or even 3, baked vegetables, meat, poultry or seafood are fried in front of you, pasta with various sauces. On the buffet tables fresh chopped vegetables, salads and sauces for them, cold cuts, cheese. Various bakery pastries, pizza for lunch and dinner. About the sweet table: 8 types of cakes and a bunch of cakes, very tasty!! ! There were fruits too, bananas, oranges, guava, apples, limes, pears.
We also met strawberries with pomegranates, though in salads or in cakes, but this is normal for winter.
Alcohol is not so hot, but my husband and I do not treat it in parallel. They didn't come for him. True, I took beer, it seems to be nothing like that, and if you squeeze the juice of half a lime into it, it does look like our "Siberian Crown" with lime. I drank rum and cola a couple of times, once during the show time, the second in the bar of the Italian restaurant, the latter was better : ) I watched the picture as in the main. Russian restaurant demanded vodka and another full glass. a depressing sight ((((Once we got to pancakes and a children's dinner, pancakes are not our pancakes to which we are accustomed. By themselves they are bland and not very tasty, but there were strawberry and chocolate sauces right there, my daughter just ate insipid and was satisfied (and I'm shocked by this), the children's dinner is the usual fast food, which she did not touch.
POOLS AND ANIMATION
The pools are cold, only the children's pool is heated and in the closed courtyard, we were in the nursery a couple of times, we have not yet grown up to all the slides. BUT THE WATER DID NOT STINK ANYTHING, THERE IS NO SMELL OF CHLORINE!! ! We lived in a closed courtyard at the end of our vacation, we basically didn’t need pools, as we were driving for the sun and the sea. I did not understand the Germans, stupidly lying near the pools all day long. Although to each his own. Animation is, but frail, as in all of Egypt. The animators worked according to the schedule, and water aerobics, water polo, volleyball on the beach, football. In the evenings, children's discos and evening shows. They didn’t take their daughter to the Kids Club, from the age of 4 to 12, they were still small, they themselves went for a walk with her. I liked that the animators were not annoying, and Laura's daughter simply did not leave at all discos.
BEACH
Someone wrote that we had to run early in the morning and take sun loungers, nothing like that. We arrived at 9.
00 the beginning of the 10th and there were a lot of free sunbeds, and a little to the right (from the pontoon) to walk so there was generally empty. THE BEACH WOULD BE VERY CLEAN if the vacationers themselves did not litter around themselves, would not bury gobies in the sand. Lizards came running to visit our sun loungers, sparrows and pigeons flew in. There is a bar on the beach, where you can take ice cream for free, very tasty. And we took well, not just one glass in hand. At lunch, you can eat sea food, of course, the sea creatures themselves are paid, but side dishes and salads with drinks are free. A small minus: hotel employees are constantly coming up and, as it were, unobtrusively offering their services (spa center, lunch, this food, hairdresser, photo services, etc. ), this is a little annoying.
SEA!!!!!
Very blue is the Red Sea!! ! Very beautiful! The next day there was a low tide, a high tide. Of course, at 500-700m the coral is dead, but the fish swim near the shore.
And for a child, the very thing is, you can wander far, look at crabs in shells, flocks of hedgehogs, small colorful fish, flute fish, and lionfish are found near the shore.
PONTOON
People, when you choose a hotel, the description clearly says how many meters it is, and you can also ask the travel agency. WHY THEN DO YOU CHOOSE THIS HOTEL? To then write something nasty about the fact that there is no sea here? Open your eyes, walk along the pontoon and you will see that the SEA IS HERE!! ! We walked along it and I personally swam from the pontoon - SUPER!! ! It's a pity that you can not take out the beauty of the sea from there: (
EXCURSIONS AND EXITS TO THE CITY
We were not going anywhere especially, the child is small and long trips are tiring. We took 2 excursions through our operator, Dolphinarium and City Tour. The dolphinarium is like a dolphinarium, the program is the same as in Koktebel, even a little worse. In the second program, fur seals and dolphins, and here there are only 3 dolphins.
The program lasts an hour, then quickly, quickly a photo for memory, and in order to swim with dolphins, you need to stay and then get on your own. Our daughter was delighted and this is the most important thing! The cost is $ 60 for two, a child under 2 years old is free (we asked the child to accompany for free)
City tour. We were picked up with a delay of 15 minutes, the bus was excellent, the guide was local, but Russian-speaking, gave our group a stupid call sign "Romashka", and then shouted at the whole city, calling everyone to the bus. We went to see the mosque of El Mustafa, the cathedral, El Fanar. Shopping in the Old Town, Tez Tour has an agreement with a fixed price store, they bring customers to them and the store gives customers a 15% discount. Then they gave an hour for shopping anywhere, an hour is too little; ) On the way back we were taken to Shisha to smoke a hookah, it was a gift from Teza for using their services.
The hookah was delicious and the custard coffee was excellent, I thought I wouldn’t like it, I was pleasantly mistaken. Yes, they also stopped by at 1001 nights, but not a performance, but just a walk in the courtyard, look at the fountains. We arrived at the hotel at 12:30 at night.
Knowing that everything inside the hotel is much more expensive than outside, we decided to take a walk to local supermarkets. By the way, we bought slippers for swimming, an inflatable boat for a child. They lured us to write a review in a tent with oils, the seller gave me tea, made a mask on my face, the effect after it is rejuvenation : )) We bought oils from him, bought Egyptian dresses in a neighboring tent, and the owner gave our daughter a hat made of beads and glass beads. They wanted to find scotch tape, so one merchant tried to sell his for $ 5, they politely refused, so he stuck, he almost drove her husband to a fever. We went to their METRO, they also have fixed prices and they won’t deceive you there, the store is good, but not very big.
DEPARTURE
All good things come to an end quickly, we handed over the room at 12.00, and at 12.20 a bus came for us, we were still waiting for our suitcases to be brought, they were taken in turn, it was impossible to see together : ))). At the airport, they quickly passed control and found out that the flight was delayed for an hour, this is not scary, since we had a flight in front of us that was delayed for 6 hours and, as a result, they announced that people would leave the airport for further accommodation in hotels. We wandered around Duty, then drank coffee and ate sandwiches, the time flew by quickly and announced the registration for the plane. The flight went off without a hitch.
A big hello to the representatives of Teza in this hotel, Ibrahim and SAMI (Semyon Semenych), they were always there in turn or together. Every day we communicated with them, came for advice or just to say hello Nick, my daughter, made very good friends with Semyon Semenych : ) The bottom line: Our vacation was a success!
Py. Sy.
We took a bunch of pills for indigestion, nothing happened during the whole vacation. Even with a child. So, people, you don’t need to eat everything in a row, mixing different foods in a bunch and you won’t get upset, poisoned. They drank water from bottles, although they brushed their teeth, soaked the brushes with water from the tap.
Good luck everyone! The main thing is to tune in to a good rest and you will succeed !! !
