A hotel for lovers of the sea and the underwater world.
This year already 2 times were in Sharm.
But when a very low price for the hotel popped up in December, we decided to book. They sent money to the card, and the price immediately went away. It was possible to pick up, but already hotz at sea! I chose budget hotels and nadybala "Halomi". Luxurious views of Naama Bay, the first line, a reef nearby near the Stella Di Mare hotel and the opportunity to explore the bay, swim near Movenpick bribed. Naama Bay I bypassed the tenth road. And then I decided to take a risk for a very budgetary money. We flew with our friend Sveta.

I studied all the reviews, videos in advance and was mentally prepared. It turned out not! The first day I had a nervous breakdown and a panic attack. For my first time in Egypt, 18 years ago, I was in 3 * "Zahabiya" in Hurghada. Then there were 4* and 5*. But "Zahabiya" compared to "Halomi" is just a bomb. "Halomi" is trash and the cruelest tin. Everything has been described in previous reviews. There really is nothing, rice and pasta, coleslaw without dressing. I thought I would sit out on puffs - but no! There is only lavash. 2 times in 9 days there was chicken and liver for dinner. Soy sausages and cutlets are not to be eaten, and the rest is in the same vein. Number changed 3 times. We barely got a room with a balcony on the 2nd floor for $5. Asked for $15. We had a boiler and the people on the 1st floor didn't always have hot water. Then I pulled myself together and started to relax.
About good.
Beautiful, cozy, sincere in the territory. Butterflies, dragonflies fly, basil grows and smells sweet. Close to the sea, going down the stairs is not difficult. The beach is small, but there was enough space for everyone. Everyone got to know each other and became friends. In the evening, Naama Bay is within easy reach. They do a good full body massage - $25 for 5 massages. Only often change the massage time, inconvenient.
The most important thing is the sea.
Views of the bay, sunrises - just a fairy tale! The house reef is dead, but there are plenty of large and interesting fish. I saw both moray eels and giant tuna. Very close to the first pontoon of Stella Di Mare. Behind him the reef is livelier. There are many fish, life is seething. Early in the morning at 6.30 I sailed past 2 pontoons and through the pontoon of the military base (we saw the Egyptians there, we didn’t see the Americans). They asked permission from the military on the pontoon, gave the go-ahead for the swim. Further the reef is interesting, there are fewer fish. A healthy barracuda hangs under 1 pontoon at 6.30. I liked the reef and fish, took a bunch of pictures. We went to the bay, go not far. From the beaches sometimes they gank, they want money. We found a place and calmly swam. Even there I took unexpected underwater photos. We reached the end of the bay and I surveyed the Movenpick reef all the way to the corner. Kapets! I was so disappointed! There are very few large fish, the reef is uninteresting, I met a couple of Napoleons, and they sailed away. I liked our reef better.
Outcome. I am satisfied with the rest, because flew over the sea. I do not recommend the hotel to anyone. If you take only accommodation for ridiculous money and eat in Naama, you might think.
Thanks for attention!
