This was our first overseas experience. Charm was chosen because of the beautiful sea. The hotel was advised by the agency - in principle, they were satisfied. The hotel is very beautiful, large territory, a lot of vegetation and beautiful landscape design, the hotel is built in Arabic style. Not far from the airport, so it's not long to go, and you're already on the beach.

This was our first overseas experience. Charm was chosen because of the beautiful sea. The hotel was advised by the agency - in principle, they were satisfied. The hotel is very beautiful, large territory, a lot of vegetation and beautiful landscape design, the hotel is built in Arabic style. Not far from the airport, so it's not long to go, and you're already on the beach. Flying planes do not interfere, almost inaudible. There are 2 large pools on the territory - their pluses are that one of them is more calm without music, for those who just want to relax in silence, and the second one is for a younger audience - with music, water aerobics, bars, etc. The pools are cleaned at night. The second beach is located on the shore, near the beach - you can go down the stairs or take a transparent elevator to it. The beach is very beautiful, water and living creatures - a fairy tale! The rooms are also normal, all the views from the rooms or the pools or the sea - you can't go wrong! Food - so-so, purely Egyptian, but you will not stay hungry. The hotel is built on the same line with another hotel, so two hotels are on the same embankment, you can walk here and there. There are no more hotels nearby, the beach is only for 2 hotels. Animation - African dances, fire show, belly dance, saxophone, etc. More or less disco. Be sure to go to the Old Town - in the evening thousands of light bulbs and waterfalls are inserted in the mountains, a bunch of barchis and shows - beauties! The New Town has a huge street with thousands of bars and shops where you can buy everything! In general, the hotel is cool, if better food would be generally super-duper!

Pluses of the hotel - it's a large territory and good rooms! 1) Food - fed poorly and monotonously, the choice for a 5 * hotel is very small 2) Animation, the right word for it is BAD!! 3) The service staff is simply disgusting, rudeness is constant, I don’t know how it didn’t come to a fight, but it was necessary.

Pluses of the hotel - it's a large territory and good rooms!
1) Food - fed poorly and monotonously, the choice for a 5 * hotel is very small
2) Animation, the right word for it is BAD!!
3) The service staff is simply disgusting, rudeness is constant, I don’t know how it didn’t come to a fight, but it was necessary....
Evening time. This was generally very fun! If you want to sit down at a table and watch the evening animation, then you need to pay for it by taking something to eat, even if you don’t want to!! ! People stood somewhere or tried to take a place at the railing so that you could lean on!
The hotel has an amphitheater specially designed for animation, but for some reason it does not work!
And something else funny - the bartenders did not give 2 drinks in one hand !! ! This is generally HOKHMA !!! ! I came with a girl to lie down by the pool, if you want to take a drink, please go for drinks together or go for a run 2 times back and forth!!!!!!
P. S. The hotel does not pull on 5 *, 4 * with a big stretch !!
Only good rooms speak of 5 *.

Compared to 2002, the hotel has deteriorated greatly, but the change of owner probably led to similar changes. The territory, of course, is quite large, but the rooms are all old and in need of repair for a long time (Although we are talking about the rooms in which Russian tourists are accommodated, because other foreigners, as well as the Arabs themselves, are accommodated in normal rooms overlooking the sea and with good repair ).

The main thing that unpleasantly surprised was the boorish attitude of the hotel staff. Even tips didn’t help, drinks were brought for an hour or simply ignored, if you wanted to sit outside and there were no appliances, then the waitress came in an hour and threw the appliances almost in your face, showing how it infuriates her to serve you here.
It should also be noted the unfriendly, and even boorish attitude of the guest relation named Elena, apparently the Russians and she also saw in the "coffin", so it's better to communicate with another girl, though in English.
It should also be noted that the guide Sheriff (Aneks tour) was also very unkind, he reluctantly communicated with us, did not even mention excursions, did not solve any controversial issues at all, and he also had big problems with sending tourists, some forgot to take away to the airport, and they tried to get us out of the hotel a day earlier. But, as soon as we bought a yacht on the beach of the hotel, the Sheriff immediately ran up, with an offended look, said that we owe him money, and in general he will still show us "Kuzkin's mother. " In general, where the Anex tour is looking at is also not clear at all. Why keep such employees, it seems that our market is oversaturated with the offer of tours, why can't we hire decent employees. The last unpleasant aftertaste was left by the restaurant menu, it was impossible to eat the same thing for 11 days, so we spent the second part of the holiday in another hotel, with better food and staff attitude.
And now about what I liked.
Night show programs. True, they were only 1 hour, but the fakir show presented by a local Arab animator impressed everyone, if you go to the Intercontinental, then be sure to go. I also really liked the Lebanese restaurant (it was possible to go there 1 time for free). I can only say that we signed up with Elena, but either she forgot, or something else happened, but they didn’t want to let us in there for free, so we went for a fee, but the waiters who didn’t understand before, and almost pushing us out of the ass with their knees restaurant screaming you are not supposed to go here (in Arabic they understand), when they saw the bucks they immediately smiled happily dragged us the menu and seated us at the best table (we were alone in the restaurant), the local ensemble of dervishes immediately came from somewhere, which played local tunes for us all evening. And the food was quite edible, unlike our Laguna restaurant.
Well, to be honest, we had a good company, so no matter what, we had a great rest. so if you go to this hotel, take a lot of good friends with you and then small troubles will not be so significant for you.

Three and a half hours flew by unnoticed, so Sharm arrived at the hotel, waited a little about an hour until they cleaned up after those who left, settled in the room there, as on the site, there is a hair dryer, a safe, etc. I want to immediately warn those who first settle in a room with a safe after you they will show how to use it, change the code, otherwise it will be so they were shown they put money and valuables and went swimming, they came but there is no money.
Change clothes and go to the beach with a deck chair, an umbrella and 2 barrels of beer, what else do you need in the heat? Rule number 1 if you want to have a good rest be polite and give small tips bargain if you don't bargain then you are a goof 2 it is desirable to know some language Food is good there was no only black and red caviar.
The hotel is good, but the walls in the rooms could be refreshed with snow or water emulsion. The coral reef starts from the coast, since I spend most of the time under water during the day, there is a risk of being left without my wife, so it is advisable to travel with a company more fun. masks and snorkels with fins feel like in an aquarium. All this can be rented, but taking it with you will be cheaper.
I strongly advise you to take bags on wheels. If you want to go on an excursion cheaper, gather a company, the more the better, let someone come up to your guide and say so and so there are a lot of us, we want to go on an excursion there, the price is 70, and we want 50 well and bargain these 10-20 bucks you can spend on souvenirs And souvenirs are cheaper in Cairo, we were taken to a papyrus jewelry factory on the 2nd floor where there were souvenirs of the Nefirtiti pyramid, etc. were 1 pound each and in Sharm at the Nami Bay market 4-5 pounds Silver is cheap they sold at the entrance to the jewelry factory for a chain bracelet and 2 earrings, he asked for 20 green ones, I brought down the price to 10, the chain was thick with a little finger and this was for a set.
We did not get into the pyramid itself, those who came in the morning and even a limited number of people launched Before you sit on the camel, agree on a price if you climb to get off, he can name any amount. A trip along the Nile through troubled waters is nothing good, only a panorama of the city and that you were also here. Another thing is the Cairo Historical Museum, that's a lot of gold, a bunch of beautifully made statues with such a primitive tool, I'm shocked! They fed us in the restaurant on the ship, everyone was told all the food is free, and you have to pay for drinks, so one crest got drunk for a freebie of Coca-Cola wine and washed off into the bus, so the big-eyed waiter kept our bus for 30 minutes until he paid off with him, disgraced Ukraine For those who will lie on the shore and need comfort, come here, but if you don’t sit still and go on excursions, then you can take a hotel cheaper

Surprisingly, Intercontinental turned out to be even better than Hyatt 5 * : -) Super service. Nothing to complain about. They feed to kill. Much better than the Hyatt! ! There was simply nothing to eat at the Hyatt! I myself wonder how this can be... There were many places, in good 5 *, but if in Egypt, then only Intercontinental!.
