As promised, I am writing my review about my trip to the charm hotel Radisson Blu Resort 5 *
I will say this in Egypt for the first time we traveled only in Europe, 4 * and 5 * hotels, but we were with friends who have repeatedly come to Egypt, everyone was more than satisfied. In addition, we have not been on a normal vacation for almost 2 years, everything is like that for 2-3 days, and the roads are roads, but here you can already relax and do nothing! Meet the sunrise and see it off with the sunset.
The long-awaited vacation paid off. In any case, I will speak solely on my own behalf!


1. The operator was TEZ TOUR, there is basically little space between the seats on the plane: you can put your feet behind your ears, they flew there, I thought I would become a yogi, they took a seat back near the emergency exit, ideal) Well done Tez tour, they took it from the airport on time and returned the transfer on time , the guide at the hotel is also smart, she will tell you everything, pay attention, advise, everything is clear and clear.

2.
I liked the HOTEL itself, and I can say with confidence, everyone writes what he wants to see, I think that small cracks or slightly worn tiles are garbage, I didn’t come to look at the cracks, but to sunbathe, swim and bask near the pool. And when the grandmothers arrived and screamed, I was already tired of looking at the Arabs, or what the hell are you people weighing on the ropes, it’s uncomfortable for me to hold on, sorry, but I want to hit such idiots with something. And so to each his own!

THE TERRITORY is all in palm trees and flowers, a bunch of canals, bridges, in general, a romantic)

3. We lived in a cool and large ROOM, we had 4 rooms: in one there were friends, then a large hall, then another small hall and our bedroom, in short, we took a royal suite for ourselves, paid 50 bucks for it from everyone upon check-in and that’s it room 2 toilet shower and jacuzzi, the balcony was also very large with sunbeds and tables, the view from the room was on the sea.
The next day we had a little flood in the bath because of the shower, but the master came and did everything and until the end of the rest we wiped ourselves with towels, and did not wipe the floor) But after this incident, the towels were changed to us daily, everything has its own plus)
Yes, we checked out at 13.30, I asked at the reception that it would not be at 12, as usual, since we had a plane at the beginning of the seventh, no problem, they said you can stay in the room until 14.00. The bracelets were also not cut off.

4. The POOL is large, the maximum depth is 170 cm, the bleach is filtered in the evening and in the morning it is already normal, you don’t even feel the smell, we just splashed around in the pool until lunch, and then just went to the sea.

5. FOOD - they fed for slaughter, there was always beef chicken, they served turkey, duck, lamb in any form, kebab, fish, squid, crab, potatoes, pasta, rice, vegetables, fruits, in short, any picky eater will find something to eat the guest.

In the morning there were always pancakes with chocolate, scrambled eggs with vegetables and cheese, sweets and pastries, croissants, various mousses and jelly. For lunch we were very fond of eating hot lime soup, and fresh game on the grill. For dinner, too, there was always something on the grill, fruits: quince, apples, bananas, oranges, pears. The only thing that, in my opinion, they don’t taste good is sausages, and vegetables like grass (although our market also has grass, if not from the garden) but I can’t say anything bad, everything was deliciously cooked, but there were snacks that we didn’t ate, well, just because we don’t like it, the rest trampled on two cheeks))) There were salads a couple of times, mostly separately lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, we didn’t mix them, we just ate them separately.

DRINKING - 3 bars, at the reception, near the pool and on the beach.
It is clear that their beer cannot be compared with Baltika 7, but as long as you can drink cold, they do anything, and rum cola and gin tonic, and brandy cola, and mojito (in their image) and pina colada ...I personally drank a milkshake with ice, coffee and ice cream from 4 to 5 days)

6. The SEA is blue blue, there is a pier, basically the descent into the water along with the passage along the pier took no less than a minute. Sometimes there were traffic jams on it until the grandmother gets into the water or gets back out, well, I think that 1.5 - 2 minutes should not cause inconvenience to anyone, we have such traffic jams in Kyiv that these are trifles.
There are a lot of fish, though I was scared to swim a little - you look down, and there is a blue abyss and a bunch of fish swimming around in schools, but my missus dived two meters and I didn’t have to pull him out of the sea a little by the ears))) The only thing I can say for me, the water in the Red Sea is very salty, the wave covers, it seems that the eyes pop out on the forehead, but of course it’s cool, you lie on the water, and the impression is like on a bed with feather beds)
Yes, and the sun rises and sets very quickly, but also very beautiful.

7. We went on 2 EXCURSIONS: on ATVs to meet the dawn through the desert and in the COLOR CANYON we went through the gorge, if you pour water on the stone, then the drawings are displayed in different colors, the impressions are the most superb!

8. We also went to the OLD TOWN for souvenirs by taxi, caught on the way, but they drive a pipets, in general I doubt that our driver had a license.
It cost us a trip with 4 people as much as 6 dollars from our hotel there +_ 40 km, and back in a taxi they got 8 dollars.

In the Old City, my boobs are my enemy, in some stores it’s normal, and when I bought T-shirts, I thought I’d have to leave a pack of napkins on the counter to wipe my drool. Well, in short, if I ever go to places like the Old Town, put on something more covered up, it’s my own fault that I put on an open sundress, that’s the result, but in general, these are all trifles, but fun.

9. At the hotel, the STAFF is polite, not a single word is superfluous, the animators are great and in the evening the show, and during the day they dance, water polo, aerobics, basketball on the beach, at 22.00 performance in the amphitheater, then African dances, then comedy club, then Latin dances, fireworks show ...there were always a lot of people on the show.

ten.
CONTINGENT - Basically, everyone comes in pairs or companies, both young people and older people, and Ukrainians and Russians, Germans and Czechs, Italians, in any case, you will always need a company.

11. TOTAL I was 98% satisfied with my vacation
I withdraw 2% only because 9 days was not enough for me)))

I perfectly understand that there are 5 * much cooler, but on my own behalf I will say this, 1500 bucks is the normal price for this hotel, in all respects I rate it 9 points (for the room, territory and sea)

I will say more, for me Egypt is the price of a hotel up to $ 1600, for a large amount you can go to other countries! IMHO

P. S. I can easily recommend this hotel! Smiles to everyone and chocolate tan : -)
