Pleasant vacation in shams safaga *

Enlarge letters A A Downsize letters A A

We were for the first time in the region safaga, as we prefer the region Marsa Alam and were surprised and pleased with the gently sloping sandy beach, we didn't knew from Egypt. The room in the main building was disappointing, with a clear view of a construction site with noise dazugehörendem, service very small and not nice. After a short discussion we were offered an upgrade for seven, -€ per person per day for a bungalow and the vacation was saved. We had the garden 1715, which was very nice, as the sun only on the other side. The bungalows are much larger and nicer, equipped, the rooms in the main building as. We had a healthy mix of Russians, Poland, Czech and German guests, and 60 days after Ramadan we were in Egypt for four days about hundred Egyptians, the whole or in a special touch (not unpleasant) gave. The food was very good, very good, wide and varied. Special praise earns the local diving school (that is why we will go to Egypt), very well organized, great atmosphere, great diving excursions by boat or from the beach and always helpful emerging smaller problem, -thanks to the whole team. Conclusion: The shams safaga is a somewhat dated Hotel, with a pleasant atmosphere, smaller (but not bad) defects, a great beach and a great swimming diving school
