Two weeks ago we returned from a holiday in Sharm El Sheikh at the FUN&SUN Active Tropitel Waves 5* hotel. Rested with family. I will say right away that on some sites they write that the Tropitel Naama Bay and Tropitel Waves hotels are one hotel. Not! These are different hotels. About everything in order.
The tour was not selected for very long, the agency (TUI) assured that even though the hotel is on the second line, it takes 5 minutes to walk to the beach. Before buying a tour, like all tourists, we read reviews and they were different, some sites say that the hotel is on the third line. Bribed the fact that the hotel is new, built in 2019.
Arrival. We arrived at the hotel after 10.00 and expected to wait until 14.00. We were immediately invited to eat. While we were in the restaurant, they prepared the room and immediately led us into it. The husband asked at the reception for a quieter room, we were taken to a room above the restaurant on the 3rd floor. This is some distance from the pool, where music is played and animation is carried out. The move in went very quickly. We did not pay anything for this and did not demand anything at the reception.
Number. The room is large, two large beds (for 3 people), in the bathroom there is a bath and a shower (whoever likes what), in addition to a large mirror, there is also a mirror for make up. All bathroom amenities (shampoo, hair conditioner, shower gel, soap) were replenished regularly. The room has a safe (free of charge), a kettle, bathrobes and slippers. Tea, coffee, sugar and cream in bags - replenished every day. Also, every day, 1.5 liters of water in plastic bottles were put in the room. If there was not enough water, you could take a bottle of water from the guys in the lobby bar, they know the word “bottle” and always gave water without any problems. I will say right away that in this bar you can drink natural Arabica coffee at any time of the day. On the day of arrival, 2 packs of juice and 3 cans of water were delivered to the bar for free: fanta, sprite, cola. Room cleaning - every day, there were no comments. You can insert a flash drive into the TV and watch.
All rooms overlook the hotel's patio, overlooking the grounds and pools.
Swimming pool. Or rather, pools, they are different, there are four of them on the territory. One is the main one, with an island in the middle, the second is with waves similar to the sea, the third is near the children's spa and the fourth is in the so-called water park (two slides). Animation was carried out near the main pool, and water aerobics classes were held in the pool itself. At any time, there were always enough sunbeds, we did not observe such that sunbeds were occupied in the morning. Near the pools there is a shower, toilet. Every morning, water is taken from the pool for analysis.
Territory. The territory of the hotel is small, compact, well-groomed, because the hotel is new - the flowers and shrubs are still young. Once I watched how paving slabs were washed with a special machine. The hotel buildings are interconnected and resemble a horseshoe, the ends of which are interconnected. The amphitheater is located behind the buildings, where different events were held every evening. There is a spa on site. Where it is located can only be seen on the sign, because there is no sign on it.
Spa-salon. It's something. All employees are masters of their craft. I decided to go to the hamam, to find out for myself the difference from Turkish. I was not only scrubbed with soap foam, but they made a coconut scrub for the whole body, and I lay like that on a marble slab for about 10 minutes. The massage is very different, they do Egyptian acupressure. At first, Yasmin (the girl who served me) asked how to massage: strong or normal, and then she did it. This is 1.5 hours of true relaxation. My husband did a full body massage - it took 40-50 minutes. Was very pleased.
Nutrition. The concept of the hotel is entertainment and food 24/7. You will never leave hungry. Although food is given out through distribution (due to quarantine restrictions), there are no queues in the restaurant, there is always space. Between breakfast, lunch and dinner, you can always have something to eat. If you want to eat at night, you can have a snack in the lobby bar. Also in the snack bar (Pool Bar) from 15.00 to 17.00 daily you can eat ice cream.
The food in the restaurant was varied: meat, fish, squid, chicken, duck. Always fresh in the morning - melon or orange. Fruits deserve special attention: bananas, melons, dates, oranges, watermelon, plums, apricots. In the evening - grilled meat or fish. There is healthy food - steamed vegetables, boiled fish, rice. Variety of desserts. No disposable tableware!
There are 2 restaurants on the territory - oriental and Italian cuisine. Once you can visit for free any of your choice - this is a bonus of the tour. We were in the east. Respect to the chef: the food, its abundance, everything was very tasty. Service is top notch.
Special thanks to the chef of the restaurant, at my request they prepared light chicken broth for two days. The restaurant managers then asked what I would do, maybe something else needs to be cooked. That's the attention and care. It was a pleasure.
Beach. The beach is 8-10 minutes walk through the beautiful Tropitel Naama Bay hotel, which has a lot of good photo locations. The beach is not very big, but a separate beach should open nearby. Towels are issued on the beach and at the pool on a card, you do not need to wear. At the beach bar, food is on schedule - french fries and fast food. There were also fruits. Drinks and local alcohol are free. The beach is closed at 17 o'clock, but we were later - it is open. There used to be a bus to the beach, but it was canceled due to the pandemic. The entry into the sea is sandy, the depth is small, there is no reef. So this is definitely not for lovers of snorkeling and the beauties of the underwater world of the Red Sea, but it is perfect for small children and those who cannot or are afraid to swim at depth.
Staff. There is active daytime and evening animation in the hotel and on the beach, you will not be bored. The animation was carried out in such a way that it did not bother anyone. The animators held exercises, yoga, darts competitions, etc. by the large pool. They approached everyone to all their events and invited them. Also for evening performances - at the entrance to the restaurant before dinner, everyone was invited. Animators also invited to events at the Tropitel Naama Bay Hotel, and vacationers from this hotel came to our hotel.
I was at yoga, which was conducted by Anastasia, I really liked it.
The hotel staff are great, they respond to requests and wishes, they try very hard, for which many thanks again! Once we came from the beach, and there was no water in the shower, to our question “When will there be water? ” they said 10 minutes. And quickly solved this problem. We moved the departure time to a later date, they called from the reception and said about it. That's the kind of attention.
For all questions, you could turn to Anastasia's gestrelation, she always prompted and helped.
The hotel has a service quality supervisor.
It is very good that the hotel has a hotel guide Ahmed, he comes twice a day: in the morning and in the evening. For all questions, please contact him. He knows Russian well, if you need an interpreter, he will help.
Wi-Fi in the hotel is free, takes everywhere, but best of all in the lobby.
Location. Nearby is one of the main areas - Naama Bay, with a large number of shops, restaurants, nightclubs, etc. The Little Buddha Club is free for hotel guests, which is good for young people. If you want to go to the Old City, there are taxis at the hotel for 3-5 dollars, they will take you there and, if necessary, they will come and take you back for the same price (we agreed with the taxi driver for 8 dollars both ways).
We met many good and pleasant people, and we had the most wonderful impressions of our next stay in Egypt. If you want a relaxing and at the same time active holiday - this hotel is for you!
