Минусы этого отеля это мелочи по сравнению с его плюсами The cons of this hotel are minor compared to its pros.

Good afternoon panov comrades khabibi tourists.
Should I go to Faraana Reef? Definitely worth it. If you have been to Faraan before, then you know what to expect from her. My family and I came here for the 6th time, as we know and adjust to stay accordingly.
1. Definitely worth going here, the sea is in place, corals are in place, fish are in place. Citizens tourists, please do not feed the fish on the reef, they then start to eat people, you can’t swim out into the sea!
2. The pontoon on the right was in the process of being repaired at the time of returning on October 29, but I almost never went to it before. Maybe it's already been fixed. But another question arose there, on the right, on the cliff, an excavator is working to strengthen the cliff, Farsha Beach is closed due to the fact that there was a collapse. How far it will be possible to walk along the shore to the pier is a question. Swimming through the corals on the left in front of the diving center is always available.

3. The people in the hotel on the strength of 20 percent of what happened last year. In the restaurant in the evening at 19.00 you can safely stock up on food, the tables are free. All food and drinks are packaged by chefs, all food is behind glass, you show with your finger what and how much to impose. Spoons, forks, knives are packed in plastic bags. The tables are furiously rubbed with disinfection, the flies from the restaurant are gone. Traditionally, there are no breakfasts, they generally put a slow cook on pancakes, lunches are tolerable (the grill on the beach works), dinners are always normal, sometimes excellent. The pasta chef is the same as last year, he makes great pasta. The sweet table has not changed, it is tolerable, but the fruits could have been diversified, although everything seemed to have been in two weeks. Although, as you all know, table food in Egypt quickly becomes boring, I didn’t go to breakfast at all, I ate mango in the morning.
4. Despite the small number of people, the assholes at the reception continue the circus with clowns in the context of the settlement, they immediately settle in the old buildings, in 4 and 8, despite the fact that there are a lot of places in 2 and 3 buildings, the standard fee is 20 dollars per room and voila , you are in a freshly renovated room overlooking the pool. Look for an uncle who leads to watch the numbers, he is there alone and negotiate with him, for his work you can throw another 5 dollars, so that with a guarantee. The territory is actively swept, the room is cleaned every day, towels are now packed in plastic bags, beach towels are now brought directly to the room and changed there.
5. The coral, of course, is tired, it can be seen, but no one canceled swimming left and right, we swam from Aqua Blue to the Continental, all kinds of reef, fish, corals, turtles (we saw everyone in two weeks, even squids and octopuses with turtles), there are few people on the beach, the distance is kept, the scourge of the boy (the head of the beach with a mustache in a vest, you know him) every time we arrive, we give a chocolate bar, so he watches things while no one is there, he personally made sure when some tourists are sunbeds " mixed up", immediately came up and drove them away. : )
6. Mango was 1 dollar per kilo, but in mid-November, most likely, it will already be more expensive. Please note that freshly squeezed freshly frozen mango juice (mashed potatoes) appeared in Sharma stores in cans of 2 liters and a whole $ 4 per can, a cool and tasty thing, I recommend it. A new product has also appeared - mango pastille, delicious, the price is from 2 to 2.5 dollars for a package of 400 grams.
7. The pharmacy on the corner near the gas station is working, the Russian-speaking pharmacist is on site, the pharmacy is raided every evening by our tourists, my madam also stocked up on 200 dollars.

8. According to the contingent: 80% are Ukraine, the rest are Belarusians, a local tourist, Kazakhs, a few Poles, a few Italians, occasionally Russians.
9. In the evening to the Old City on foot 30 minutes to go down the mountain, back for 4 people taxi 2 dollars. To Soho Square, a taxi for 4 people for $ 5 round trip, if by tuk-tuk (minibus) then $ 3 each. On Naama Bay taxi 4 people for $ 3 round trip. At the end of October, a museum of the history of Egypt was opened in Sharm, they write that a large and interesting exposition can be visited. The rest of the excursions, as you well know, are a waste of time and money, especially all sorts of Yellow Submarines, Sea Ospreys, Glass Boats and other trips. In Sharm, now the main contingent of vacationers are tourists from Ukraine, locals pray that flights will not be closed here, otherwise the light in Sharm can be put out and scattered, there are practically no other sources of income.
10. Pools, all three work, but life is only in the pool near the sea, the bar is open, drinks are poured, they don’t kick you out of the water in the evening, swim at least all night.
11. At the departure, half of the tourists shake their suitcases, after the scanner they are forced to remove the film and unpack, review all the shorts and boxes, ask them to open them, read the instructions, and half of the flow is shaken for explosives, smeared with litmus papers and immediately fed to the analyzers. The situation with the export of medicines seems to have calmed down, demonstrative shaking out of suitcases with pills and seizures have been canceled for the time being. They don’t find fault with mango boxes in hand luggage, at the very end, before going down to the waiting room, a separate uncle sits and rewrites the number of mango boxes, this is how they take into account export : )))))

As a summary: communication with the sea and flora and fauna more than covers the shoals of the hotel in terms of food, rooms and other trifles. If diving and snorkeling, then here, nevertheless, the best bay in Sharm, not for nothing that the whole Sharm is brought here to watch corals. I am satisfied with my vacation, I knew what I should get, and I got it. If it is important for you how your room was swept and you are looking for hairs on the floor, then you are definitely not in Egypt, look for a more suitable country for recreation.
If you forgot something, ask.
P. S. I recommend subscribing to all sorts of local Sharma Facebook groups to always be aware of the latest news.
