Hello!! ! We rested in the Sea Club from 08/29/2010 to 09/05/2010. I usually don't write reviews, but because before traveling on vacation, I myself am interested in the reviews of tourists, I also chose the time and decided to write my personal opinion about the hotel and the rest in it.
We rest abroad every year, in particular, we were in Turkey 6 times, in Egypt 4 times, other countries are only in the plans so far . . (Hotels 5 * All or Uall)
In Egypt, we rested in Sofitel (Hurghada), Sunrise Island View (Sharm), Savita (Sharm).
So… This trip was spontaneous and unplanned for us. in June we just flew in from Antalya (we rested in Kemer for 12 days with the Anex Tour, I’ll say right away that the rest didn’t bring the expected, there were nuances, we realized that we wouldn’t fly anywhere else with the Anex Tour, but that’s another story . . )

And then friends began to call us for a week in Egypt, and because. from a trip to Turkey, dissatisfaction remained and the company was good, we all (husband, me and a daughter of 15 years old) instantly caught fire with this idea, although we were not morally, and most importantly, financially ready for this. Therefore, the hotel was chosen on the principle of "both good and inexpensive. "
The company was 8 people: 6 adults and two "children" 15 years old and 25 years old. I must say right away that we flew with TEZ TOUR and have never regretted it, we were very satisfied with everything related to TEZ TOUR.
We arrived at the hotel around 15-00, settled fairly quickly, all three rooms were given not so close, but not far from each other. They didn’t give money when checking in, they decided if they didn’t like the rooms, then then. The rooms are standard and all the same, so they did not change.
The size of the ROOM is quite spacious (it is important for us because 3 people); nice balcony ; TV, hair dryer, air conditioner - nothing broke, there was a breakdown in the shower - they came to fix it. Good comfortable wardrobes, good hair dryer. In general, the condition of the room is tired (it is far from new), but we went to relax, have fun, swim, sunbathe and have a good time with friends, so the “glamour” in the room didn’t particularly bother us. The only thing that I didn’t like was the extra bed - not a very comfortable folding bed. They cleaned the room normally, there were no complaints about changing towels and bedding, leave a tip every other day.

I really liked the area of ​ ​ the hotel. Very beautiful, green, well-groomed, there is where to walk and spend time. It is quite large in size (after all, there are 3 hotels), but everything is located close enough and convenient (you can go to your room from the beach without straining if you forgot something, or go to the pool bar if you are tired of the beach). In the evening, lights are lit, there is a bar near the lake, there is live music every evening, you can have a good time there after dinner. Nice Lobby Bar with outdoor terrace and night hotel view, tips left a couple of times + our daughter's long legs and the service is just excellent: good cocktails were very nicely decorated with fruit for us (there is something to compare, but for Egypt it is in general ! ! ). We didn’t even ask, but they brought us in vases beautifully chopped and laid out snacks from: cucumbers, carrots, cheese, olives . .
NUTRITION. In general, they were not hungry, but without frills. We had enough, but our friends were very upset about this. There seems to be a lot of everything, but it is impossible to find something tasty. Our friend said the phrase: "I wonder where they found such a cook who manages to spoil so many products. " The word "spoil" is a more cultural version of the spoken word. In principle, the food did not bother us, but if you are going on vacation “to eat a lot, well and very tasty, then you are not here). I also remembered: minus the fact that there was nowhere to eat between breakfast and lunch, we had breakfast at 7 in the morning, swam, sunbathed and by 10 o’clock everyone was not against something to gnaw, but no, they don’t give anything anywhere. We then really adapted: we took fruit with us to the beach. There was no free ice cream, we certainly did not cry from it, but sometimes we would treat ourselves with pleasure. Many in the reviews complained that there were not enough places in the restaurant, I will answer: we came at the beginning of dinner and the choice of places was for every taste, if you didn’t have time, come closer to the end and there will be places. In the midst of dinner, you will have to wait, but they will seat you and find seats.
THE DRINKS. Plain bottled water is enough: you can take it without restrictions in all bars and restaurants. Pleased with packaged juices: Apple, orange, pineapple. Standard: cola, sprite. The beer is not bad, bottled at the beach bar. I can’t say anything about strong drinks, the men tried something there when the supplies ran out. They brought with them, but I didn’t hear much enthusiasm from them. We were traveling with a group, so we took vodka, cognac, martini, trino... with us.
SEA and BEACH. The beach is big enough with plenty of sunbeds. We came to the beach early, so we settled down as it was convenient for us (between the bar and the pontoon). If you come at 11 o'clock, then of course there will be no good places. But this is the case in all hotels - whoever gets up earlier gets slippers. Sea This is a separate conversation. In the bay of Nabq rested for the first time. But before going, we read information about the hotel, reviews of tourists, looked at photos and were ready to accept the sea as it is. (The aunts who were screaming on the pontoon were very annoyed that they didn’t like the sea, that they were there in such and such a hotel it was better there. The question arises: did you go to the hotel blindfolded? Pay more and go to a better and more expensive hotel. For example, in Concord, it is located in the White Knight Bay - a chic sea, and the hotel is good. But for example, the price in Concord was a week more expensive than in the Sea Club for $ 1400. You choose. ) This sea is not for those who want to spend hours snorkelling, hanging like a bobber and looking at corals and fish. The sea is constantly stormy, very deep, the corals are mostly dead, there are few fish (in the White Knight Bay in Sunrise Island View and in Savita, the sea is simply gorgeous, the beauty is breathtaking, but the price of tickets is correspondingly different), the stairs from the pontoon are very uncomfortable. There is a plus: I really liked the small lagoon, the entrance to the sea from the shore was a pleasure to swim there, there are no waves and it’s nice to swim in any weather, the water is gorgeous, the fish swim, swim like in an aquarium. Just relax! ! Very convenient for kids.

What I really didn't like was the POOL. We didn't need it, we didn't swim in it. But we saw him and I want to write about him separately. VERY DIRTY, In the morning, the servants wash the dirt from the sides into the pool, and then catch any rubbish from the water. It's just awful. This process was observed every morning, because went to the beach early.
We didn’t go on excursions, we didn’t plan to, we just went to relax on the Beautiful Red Sea. Several times in the evening we went to the city: for a walk, to buy fruits (mangoes, pomegranates, grapes) and souvenirs. There were 8 of us, we went outside the hotel and took a whole minibus instead of a taxi for $ 8-10 to the Old City. The hotel taxi is expensive.
In general, if I were asked if I would visit this hotel again, then more likely yes than no. With limited funds for recreation, this is a good budget 5 *. You choose.
Our flight home was delayed by 10 hours! ! But do not rush to sympathize with us and feel sorry for us. It is with Anex Tour that we would sit tired and hungry at the airport for 10 hours, languishing with boredom. TEZ TOUR was just on top. We were put on buses and taken to the Thousand and One Nights entertainment complex, we left our luggage on the buses. We were taken to a beautiful restaurant, where we had already paid for dinner (by the way, very good: a lot of delicious meat, barbecue, kebab, a large tray of fruit). And they handed out free entrance tickets to the show "A Thousand and One Nights", they told us what time and where the bus would be waiting for us and left us to walk and have fun. We really liked the final evening of our holiday in Sharm: beautiful territory, awesome fountains, beautiful photos, pleasant atmosphere, dinner, show. At the appointed time, TEZ TOUR buses picked us up and took us to the airport for registration. Respect and respect for the company TEZ TOUR. Do not think that I am doing PR for this company, but I know for sure from my own experience that TEZ TOUR is a guarantee of a good, adventure-free vacation.
What I remembered, I wrote. If you have questions, ask. I will be glad to answer.
