If you are looking for quality rest, I definitely do not recommend choosing this hotel. There are too many negative aspects to it. By the way, this is not the first time I am vacationing in Egypt, but I have never met such rude and unprofessional staff. That is, the quality of service is at a very low level, although there are, of course, exceptions, but they are not many. … More ▾ If you are looking for quality rest, I definitely do not recommend choosing this hotel.

There are many disadvantages. I don't understand how he positions himself as a 5, here the weak 4 is questionable.

Been to Sharma more than 20 times. We go 3-4 times a year. I read positive reviews about this Amphoras Beach hotel and decided to go. Stayed from 05/02-05/09/2024. This is the worst hotel out of 20 trips. The staff is terribly rude, there is not a drop of respect for tourists. It feels like they are doing you a favor for your money. … More ▾ Been to Sharma more than 20 times. We go 3-4 times a year. I read positive reviews about this Amphoras Beach hotel and decided to go.

The room, although updated, was dirty. They only change the towel if you leave a couple of dollars. The food is either raw or burnt and not tasty. The restaurant is dirty, there is a queue and there are no tidy tables. The beer couldn't be worse. And as the girls animators said, they write good reviews at their request, but many are dissatisfied. So, conclusion, don't believe the reviews. The hotel is a weak 3 and not a 5.

Arrived at this hotel in the evening together with my 17 year old daughter. We ordered the usual standard for two, gave a two-room chalet, with a kitchen with a large refrigerator and working El. stove. At first we decided that something was mixed up, it turned out that it wasn’t, what was free, then they gave it. … More ▾ Arrived at this hotel in the evening together with my 17 year old daughter. We ordered the usual standard for two, gave a two-room chalet, with a kitchen with a large refrigerator and working El. stove. At first we decided that something was mixed up, it turned out that it wasn’t, what was free, then they gave it. The room is old, I don't like the word "tired", it's just old and in need of refurbishment. But we liked the fact that there are two double beds in different rooms. Everything worked, and air conditioners, and a TV, several Russian channels, a shower without interruption. Cleaned every day, but the linen was never changed. It's okay, I don't change my house every day either. The staff is friendly, smiling, calm, although they do not know Russian very well. Now about nutrition. Why write nonsense "you will not stay hungry. " Do you know any other phrases? Or do you eat black caviar at home???! ! . The food is just super delicious. Very varied, chicken, fish, meat, in five variations.
Vegetables are different, but what desserts !!!! ! There is a brazier in front of the entrance, there is such a yummy! One surprised - few fruits. But we didn't go for fruit. We come to the most important thing. Sea. Haven't seen this anywhere. Transparent, blue-green. What beautiful fish and fish, are not afraid of a person, swim nearby or start playing catch-up. The corals are gorgeous and colorful. Didn't like the pier. The wooden steps, already rotten, covered with moss. This must be corrected immediately, otherwise you can break the leg. Deep, 20 meters, who is afraid of water or swims in a three-plus, it is better to sit near the shore. Very often a red flag, swimming is prohibited, but in the evening the sea calms down. I can't recommend this hotel for sure. And I'm not sure I'll be back here again. What I wanted to see, I saw. You decide.

This is our 4th visit to this great hotel in the last 3 years. In March 2023, we once again rested for 20 days in Sharm El Sheikh at the Amphoras Beach 5 * hotel.

After Sharm El Sheikh, we flew to Istanbul for a week, and then returned to Moscow - Regular flights - $514 (38330 rubles) - 2-bed accommodation 20 days All Inclusive in a 5 * hotel - $ 1289 (101. … More ▾ This is our 4th visit to this great hotel in the last 3 years.

Rest in total for two according to the All Inclusive system cost us only 150 thousand rubles (at the time of payment). After Sharm El Sheikh, we flew to Istanbul for a week, and then returned to Moscow

- Regular flights - $514 (38330 rubles)
- 2-bed accommodation 20 days All Inclusive in a 5 * hotel - $ 1289 (101.400 rubles)
- Private transfer to Sharma airport - $12 (930 RUB)
- travel insurance for a month for two - 6490 rubles

TOTAL RUB 147.000

Air tickets for regular flights were bought on sale from Pegasus Airlines. The actual flight time on the DME-SAW route was 4 hours, on the SAW-SSH route - 2.5 hours. Docking in Istanbul in Sabiha - 2 hours. You do not need to collect baggage when transferring if you have a booking with flights under the same PNR booking number

BOOKING A HOTEL

We booked a hotel room on the official website of Amphoras Beach 5 *.
By agreement with the hotel, they paid for the reservation upon check-in. The price on the site is set in US dollars. But you can also pay in euros. Free cancellation possible

When booking online offsite, you could get a promotional code for a 10-15% discount. And the resulting price was lower than on aggregators and tour operators. The final cost of booking a double standard room per day under the All Inclusive system was $ 66 with all taxes

We booked the cheapest double room Standard Garden View on the website, but we were upgraded to Superior Pool View (see the screen of booking conditions on the website in the attachment to the review). Early check-in is paid separately, subject to availability. As a bonus from the hotel we got a free pick up from the hotel from Sharm El Sheikh airport.
An individual free transfer was provided when booking a hotel for more than 9 days (see the screen of the booking conditions on the website in the attachment to the review)

The hotel has 2 four star satellite hotels with good service and food, and lower prices for accommodation. In the same way as described above, you can book rooms in these hotels.

It should be noted that March is still the low season in Sharm. During the high season, the price policy of hotels can change significantly. From April to November, prices for hotel reservations increase markedly. Moreover, you can often observe a jump in prices from Friday to Sunday. This is due to the arrival of urban local residents on vacation at the resort.

REST IN THE HOTEL

We were probably lucky that the hotel was 60% full. And most of them are tourists from Italy. There were few Russian-speaking tourists. Our last races were sold out. Therefore, there were few people on the beach, in restaurants, bars.
The food here was excellent as always. Constantly fish, beef, seafood, amazing desserts. In the end, they already stopped gluttony (see photo for review)

We lived in the building of zone 4 after its renovation. I liked the updated room after the renovation of Superior Pool View, everything is new and plumbing and furniture. We had a room overlooking the pool and the central area (see diagram in the attachment). If you did not get an updated number, you should not be upset. All non-updated rooms of the Standard hotel are in good condition after cosmetic repairs.

? ? Overview of the Standard Sea View rooms (at 4:49) and the Family Superior 2+2 Pool View room (at 1:14) - https://youtu. be/4XewZc5WuRU

The hotel has excellent high-speed Internet, almost throughout the territory, in rooms (not all), on the beach, bars, pools. Whatsapp, Viber, etc. calls are available.
The updated rooms have modern Android TVs, you can watch Russian channels, videos and movies without brakes from youtube, Netflix. Therefore, we did not buy a SIM card, as in previous races. If necessary, it can be purchased nearby, at Il Merkato, at the official sales offices of Vodafone, Orange, Etisalat. When buying, you need a passport (see the location diagram in the photo section for the review)

On the beach, the Internet is not available everywhere, only in zones. located on high ground. The sea this March was very warm compared to our previous visits. The sea invigorates at the entrance but you quickly get used to it. It is better to use a jersey or a wetsuit for swimming in March. Water temperature 22-24 degrees. We swam in the sea almost every day

? ? REVIEW. The Red Sea and its inhabitants - https://clck. ru/349Pf8

The Amphoras 5 * hotel is completely fenced off from the satellite hotel Blu Amphoras 4 *. The gates were welded up and a demarcation fence was installed on the beach.
Now the hotel has become unavailable for guests of Blu Amphoras 4* (1st line) and Aqua Amphoras 4* (2nd line). Perhaps this also contributed to the unloading of the beach and pools from the tourists of these hotels. Throughout the holiday there were plenty of free sunbeds on the beach and pools

If you are going to travel around the resort, visit the Old Market, Soho Square, Farsha Beach or other attractions, I advise you to use the InDrive taxi and transfer application. Prices are several times lower than taxis on the street. InDrive cars do not enter the property. It is more profitable to pay for the trip in pounds. Currency can be changed at the ATM on the left at the entrance to the hotel. We also changed at ATMs-exchangers located on Il Merkato, Old Market. Exchange rates at ATMs are very good.

? ? REVIEW. Author's guide to Sharm El Sheikh - https://clck. en/349aLw

If you need medicines, then the nearest pharmacy selling at state prices is Dr.
Samer Pharmacy, located 10 minutes walk from the hotel, before reaching Il Merkato, in the Carlton Mall on El Fanar Street. Here we constantly buy medicines, medical cosmetics and oils (see photo in the attachment to the review)

We went to Naama Bay several times, ordering a free transfer to the reception. Before reaching Naama Bay, we landed in order to visit the Genena Mall. Several branded clothing and footwear stores are located here. All other attractions of Sharm visited on their own. This is a grandiose Coptic Christian church, Farsha Beach, Shsrm El Sheikh Museum

We ordered a return transfer to the airport from the Egyptian tour operator Maro Tours. The cost is $ 12, they drove a brand new minivan for us when leaving the hotel. Prepayment is not required. You can order a transfer on the website, by e-mail. Email, Whatsapp, Viber

The stay at the hotel as a whole was very pleasant, it would be possible to stay for an indefinite time.
Despite the fact that we planned to stay in Sharm for 20 days, we did not buy a tourist visa. We entered Egypt using the Sinai stamp. We didn't plan to leave Sinai

"Sinai stamp" gives the right to stay in the resort area of ​ ​ Sharm el-Sheikh - Dahab - Nuweiba - Taba for 15 days, as well as to visit the monastery of St. Catherine. To travel to other parts of the country or for a longer stay in the country, you should apply for a regular tourist visa.

We used the information from the website of the Russian Consulate in Egypt "foreign citizens over 60 years of age in case of staying in Egypt longer than the validity of the visa are exempted from paying fines when departing from the territory of the ARE"

When departing from Egypt from Sharm El Sheikh, we did not pay any overstay fees in excess of 15 days. Our savings of $50

Reference.

? ? The cost of a tourist visa for Egypt is $25.
??
The overstay fine is paid in Egyptian pounds and amounts to 1500 le (about $50).

The hotel is large in area, in fact it is also 4 *, but there is only one heated pool, a lot of decorative pools, slides under repair, several levels of the beach area, a pier of 40 meters, the reef is weak, there are not many fish.

The food is average, there is little seafood and fruits, a lot of sweets and pastries.
The rooms are tired to the level of 3*-.
Mold and stains in the bathroom are everywhere - and this is for a $ 20 surcharge upon check-in, what is there in the forehead is generally scary to imagine.
Settlement at 50-60%.
The animators are active, they don’t let you get bored, there are courts and a gym - but the state is not 5 *, everything is tired.
Probably a hotel for "their" money - $ 1800 for three for 10 nights, but if I knew, I would have chosen another, albeit more expensive.

The hotel was bought for 56.500 (3 adults + 1 child) for 10 days. Pros: large green area; 4 swimming pools; small water park; a wide range of food, several times there was seafood. The biggest plus - the sea, stationary pontoon, sunset without corals. Special thanks to the cleaner Mina for making various interesting figures from towels and for being honest with his work. … More ▾ The hotel was bought for 56.500 (3 adults + 1 child) for 10 days.

The staff did everything possible for our comfortable stay, always positive and friendly.
Of the minuses:
old rooms, but some are already closed for renovation;
we lived in the first building, we didn't get Wi-Fi, in the lobby and at the beach bar and near the 4th building it was, but weak;
there were not enough sunbeds for everyone, so they got up earlier and borrowed them, because a large number of sunbeds were broken.
Despite all this, the rest was wonderful.

The hotel consists of two 4 * and 5 *. The territory is huge, many pools, disco, regular animation. You can walk everywhere, you can also use the bars at 4 and 5. Only dining rooms are separate. Everything is neat, clean. In the four in the rooms there is only no kettle and coffee-tea, but they are not needed there. … More ▾ The hotel consists of two 4 * and 5 *.

For the money the hotel is simply gorgeous. People want to pay not much, but demands, like in vip hotels. Yes, there are a lot of Arabs there now. This is because now there are few tourists from Europe in Egypt due to the pandemic and hotels attract more locals in order to somehow survive. In addition, Arab children have holidays in September. … More ▾ For the money the hotel is simply gorgeous.

Yes, there are a lot of Arabs there now. This is because now there are few tourists from Europe in Egypt due to the pandemic and hotels attract more locals in order to somehow survive. In addition, Arab children have holidays in September.
The food is normal, a lot of vegetables, seasonal fruits, chicken and fish are prepared differently every day. Those who want lobsters and octopuses to drink champagne can go to a hotel for $3.000 a week.
The hotel has wonderful animators, entertained to the fullest by both adults and children. Of course, the entry into the sea is not quite for children, so there are a lot of young people in the hotel. And all the children sit by the pool.
Those who love this magical sea should go to this hotel, the hotel has a gorgeous reef. For those who love a fun party, because a lot of youth. For those who like to walk around the city, and not sit all the time in the hotel, the Old Town and Naama Bay are 10 minutes away. ride.
For us it was the best holiday, we will come here again for sure!

We chose a hotel for parents on the recommendation of a travel agent. Parents were very pleased with the rest. The food is tasty and varied (including seafood such as squid, various fish, shrimp, crabs, mussels). The room was sea view, clean and spacious.

There are two options for entering the sea - from the beach and from the pier, where you can see the coral reef and fish)
From entertainment there are water slides and interesting animation in the evening.
Only wi-fi does not catch, but this is not a problem, because. a local sim card with internet was bought in advance.
The impressions from the rest are the most positive.

It was not the first time I rested in Sharm, I heard a lot about this hotel, I can say one thing, I did not regret at all that I chose this particular hotel. Check-in took place as usual at 14:00, just arrived at this time, filled out a questionnaire at the reception and went to the room. The room was large, spacious and clean, ready for our move in. … More ▾ It was not the first time I rested in Sharm, I heard a lot about this hotel, I can say one thing, I did not regret at all that I chose this particular hotel. Check-in took place as usual at 14:00, just arrived at this time, filled out a questionnaire at the reception and went to the room. The room was large, spacious and clean, ready for our move in. We were satisfied with everything in the room. But if you get to the bottom of all the little things, such as: the door is shabby, where the latch hangs, there is a stain on the glass of the balcony door, there is not enough light and the air conditioner makes a lot of noise for someone, then yes, you will notice all these disadvantages, but in fact, It's the little things that don't spoil your holiday.
Very good territory, several pools, everything is clean, comfortable and tidy. Each pool has its own bar. At the bar you can choose any drinks, both alcoholic and non-alcoholic. Also, each pool has its own atmosphere, everywhere you can find a place for yourself and your mood.
For food: there is a lot of food in the hotel, whatever you want, there is pasta, rice, potatoes, every day there is meat, grilled cutlets, fish, even seafood. Everything is very tasty, special thanks to the chefs of this hotel. You definitely won't leave hungry here.
We were very lucky with housekeeping, we had a wonderful guy named Hasan. Who cleaned the room every day and made new figurines from towels every time, his flight of fancy is gorgeous, the child was waiting for something new every day and was always delighted, just like us adults =) Special thanks to Hasan !!!
I would also like to say about the photographer in this hotel, his name is Said. We contacted him, he did a photo session for us. He is a professional in his field. He will tell everything, show, put, direct, cheer and make cool, warm, bright photos of your holiday =) you can also rent a dress from him for a photoset, the pictures turned out great. Also, special thanks to Said for these memories of our vacation, which he captured!!!
A big thank you to all the staff at this hotel! Guys, you are great fellows!!!
I will definitely come back to this hotel!
