Hi all. Just returned. I hasten to share my impressions. We went from Teztur. We live in Mariupol, the departure was from Donetsk at 8.00. We chose Teztur, because he provided a free transfer Mariupol-Donetsk and back, which was very useful with an early departure. The flight was not delayed. Met, brought - everything is clear. At the reception was a Russian-speaking girl Rimma. She led us to the sofas, we quickly filled out questionnaires, she put on bracelets for us and sent us to dinner, when we returned we were given keys and cards for towels. The passports were returned the next day. Before the trip, I read reviews about Rimma, people complained that she settled Russians in a remote relaxation zone, maybe we were lucky, but we were settled in the second building from the sea (without any requests or additional payments). The room (615 on the second floor), however, turned out to be so-so - small, the furniture was shabby, but the mattresses were good, the TV remote control was wrapped with tape, at the end of the rest it stopped working altogether. Plumbing is good - toilet, bidet, sitting bath, washbasin. Everything worked, nothing leaked, there were no interruptions in hot water. Soap, shower gel and shampoo (2 in 1), liquid soap. There is wicker furniture on the balcony, not plastic, the view of the amphitheater is not the worst - the hotel has a lot of rooms overlooking the fence, though overgrown with greenery. We had a safe in the room, which made me very happy, because I read that there are not safes everywhere. They seem to be working on it and will gradually be everywhere. There was also a hair dryer, a tea set, matches, a sewing kit in the room. In general, you can live, everything suited me. The cleaner cleaned regardless of the tip - not very good. I washed the floors, but did not clean the rug and did not clean the balcony at all. By the way, there are a lot of signs there: if you want the cleaner to change the bed - put this sign on the bed, if you want the towels to be changed - throw them on the floor, if something breaks, there is also a corresponding sign, there is an instruction for the safe on in Russian. Swans did not spin. Probably can't. The bed was new, beige towels both in the room and on the beach, so it is difficult to judge the degree of their cleanliness and novelty. Didn't see any cockroaches. But there were mosquitoes and flies. We took the fumigator, but forgot the pills. Therefore, they turned on the air conditioner at night and covered themselves with their heads, leaving only their noses, otherwise they were bitten. Mosquitoes are poisoned in the morning and in the evening with smoke from burnt diesel fuel. At this time, it is better not to be on the territory. They acted with flies in a completely sadistic way - in a restaurant they saw a guy who killed them with an electric fly swatter that looked like a badminton racket. Neighbors in the corps were of all nationalities and Russians and British and Arabs. Sea. The pontoon is really long, but looking ahead I’ll say that thanks in part to him, I didn’t get better at all. Immediately after breakfast we walked to the end of the pontoon. There are a lot of sunbeds there, and they were filled up by 11 o'clock. But there are no umbrellas there. We were lucky, and for the first 3 days there was a white flag, we managed to dive, even floated on a sunken ship. Then there was the red flag. I have never seen Black, although the sea was quite stormy, but this did not stop many. Coral is average. Huge bar on the beach - every day from 12.00 fried kebab, squid and fish in batter - yummy. Whatever you need with beer. And also ice cream from 12 to 18. As for food, there are no questions. Four restaurants, and even five for dinner. There are also a lot of bars - at least 6. Due to this, there have never been queues. The people are all scattered somewhere, so there were enough places everywhere, the only thing was that it was difficult to find a place on the terrace for dinner, we occupied a table from 6 pm and just drank until half past six. But there are plenty of places inside. No one limited us in drinking - we drank where we wanted and how much we wanted (and we wanted a lot). The food is very varied. From the exotic, crabs, octopus, squids were seen in different versions. For lovers there were even grilled chickens and some funny shawarma. There were some small birds, I suspect pigeons. There was even quite a decent sausage and sausages. Many dishes are really very spicy, but there are plenty to choose from. The fish was mainly sole in different versions and horse mackerel. From whole fruits there were bananas, persimmons, guava, dates and some strange citrus fruits (some kind of hybrid, probably). In general, they ate from the belly. There were no problems with digestion. Rather, on the contrary - everything worked like clockwork (sorry for the intimate detail). The bar at the central pool is open until late, not until 18, as indicated in the description of the hotel, and the bar on the terrace too. Therefore, there is somewhere to drink in the fresh air in the evening. By the way, it was very warm, we never wore sweaters, even in trousers it was a bit hot, but for dinner the Europeans all dressed up, and we also had to match, well, mosquitoes again. Well, and most importantly - on the day of our arrival, the hotel opened a water park - 5 slides, very much nothing. They go down in circles or on foam, so you won’t scratch your back. Between the slides there is a freshly cut booth for a DJ, club music plays. In front of the slides, instead of the usual sun beds, there are new 2-seater huge beds with pillows. Three of us can easily lie on them. There is also a bar and a toilet. Very comfortably. The water park is located immediately at the entrance to the hotel, i. e. very close to the relaxation zone, otherwise they cry that they are far from the sea, but close to the water park. In general, if there is a storm at sea, there is something to do. The guide said that a week ago there was a tennis court at this place. The period of our stay coincided with a major Muslim holiday. On this occasion, as we were told by the hotel guide - a gift from the company - a free 2-day tour of Cairo-Alexandria. It was very tempting, but we were already in Cairo, and it was a pity to throw it away and be left without the sea for 2 days out of 7, and we planned an excursion to Mount Moses for this trip, which would hardly have been possible in this situation, well, there was also a factor of free cheese in mousetrap (implicitly expected some kind of dirty trick). In general, we did not go. The toad then pressed a little (after all, more than $ 300 for two for free). And it was necessary to leave the hotel, and then re-settle in no one knows which rooms. It's interesting how it all ended. We haven't talked to anyone, so we don't know. Can someone write how they went? And we bought excursions in the first agency we came across and we don’t regret it at all, the first one was to Mount Moses, as we expected - it’s hard of course, but nothing, everyone survived. The second to Ras Mohammed by bus. This is where the corals are the bomb. We had 2 diving stops of 50 minutes, in addition - mangroves and lake of desires. I liked it very much. For $ 25 tour - what you need. On the way back we were asked to be dropped off at the Old Market. Yes, prices are not the same as 2 years ago. I barely bargained for a bag for $ 45 (asked for 80), a towel for 8. Horror. It used to be 5-6. We got to the hotel by bus. They offered the driver 10 pounds, he asked for 20, but since it was already 14.25, and lunch was up to 15, we did not catch the next one and drove off. They came running without five minutes, well, nothing - they ate. During the holidays, many Arabs with children came to the hotel. But it somehow did not strain, absolutely adequate. Apparently not the poorest (5 after all). The hotel guide said they were Israeli Arabs. The return flight was delayed, and they boarded the plane on time, but took off 1 hour 45 minutes later, a queue of 3 planes lined up in front of us and they took off at intervals of a couple of minutes. Cinema. Thank God that the bus waited for us and took us to Mariupol. Well, everything seems to be. It got a little messy. Thanks for reading. If you are interested in something, please ask.
