  42. 2:088:08 AM. As usual, I arrived to see how
  43. 2:12the hotel welcomes its tourists. The
  44. 2:17German premium hotel, Steigenberger
  45. 2:20Alcazar. This is my first time visiting
  46. 2:23it. I was here before as a guest. My
  47. 2:27subscribers invited me. I was staying
  48. 2:30at Pickalbatros Moderna. And now we
  49. 2:33will finally see how our vacation goes.
  50. 2:42It is always expensive, so it will be
  51. 2:46very interesting to compare it with
  52. 2:51Rixos. So, I got through, guys.
  53. 2:57Security, proceed to reception. Well,
  54. 3:02comparing it to Rixos is probably not
  55. 3:05quite right, because they have a
  56. 3:08different concept. We'll see now.
  57. 3:14It’s very curious; the food should be
  58. 3:16high-quality and the service good. Uh,
  59. 3:19I wonder what the alcohol is like. My
  60. 3:22subscribers, they vacationed at Rixos.
  61. 3:26That was a long time ago. And they said
  62. 3:29they liked this hotel more than Rixos.
  63. 3:34So I’m interested in checking it out.
  64. 3:53I’ve been to Hurghada. It’s
  65. 3:56completely different there; this is a
  66. 3:58higher level. The hotel opened in 2017.
  67. 4:34Here is the lobby, the chandelier, the
  68. 4:39flowers, and to the left.
  69. 4:46>> It smells very nice. They offered me,
  70. 4:51saying, "Please, have a seat." I showed
  71. 4:53my voucher. Good service. They brought
  72. 4:59juice. Let’s try it now. Oh, super
  73. 5:07natural mango juice. Well, I haven't
  74. 5:11had mango for a while. Mostly I've been
  75. 5:13drinking orange juice lately. The mango
  76. 5:15is very delicious. Hello, guys.
  77. 5:18>> Do you want to buy medicine in Sharm El
  78. 5:20Sheikh? I recommend a pharmacy in
  79. 5:22Hadaba that I have personally verified.
  80. 5:24There is a free transfer and, uh, any
  81. 5:27payment method is accepted.
  82. 5:29Russian-speaking Dr. Nour works every
  83. 5:32day from 11:00 AM to 11:00 PM. Viber
  84. 5:36and WhatsApp are at your service;
  85. 5:39contact details are in the video
  86. 5:41description. A good pharmacy. Good.
  87. 5:44That's it, I've been given a blue
  88. 5:47wristband and invited to the restaurant
  89. 5:51. They say it's out here to the right.
  90. 5:57So, they say if possible, we'll give
  91. 6:00you a room right away. If possible.
  92. 6:11Here, I understand, is our restaurant.
  93. 6:13Hello. As for the restaurant, look,
  94. 6:34it's all free here. I stepped out.
  95. 6:43There are tables outside, you can sit
  96. 6:46there. Coffee. Oh, there are birds here
  97. 6:52, look. So for those who are alone, be
  98. 6:56careful. They are jumping right on the
  99. 6:59tables. There is water here, also juice
  100. 7:09, a coffee machine, tea. This will
  101. 7:16likely be for dinner and lunch. Now
  102. 7:19let's go inside and see what the
  103. 7:21breakfast is like. I am very, very
  104. 7:25curious because when I was here a long
  105. 7:27time ago, I didn't have much experience
  106. 7:30, and it seemed simply gorgeous to me.
  107. 7:33Simply gorgeous. Well, the fact that
  108. 7:37crows have become active here is
  109. 7:40certainly not very good. You see, they
  110. 7:43are quite tame here already. I wanted
  111. 7:48to connect to the Wi-Fi, but it's
  112. 7:49asking for some password. I'll need to
  113. 7:52go to the reception to get them to
  114. 7:54connect me to the Wi-Fi. Here is our
  115. 7:57bar. Look, there's plain water, detox
  116. 8:01water, orange juice, and apple juice.

  130. 9:59sugar, raisins, nuts, milk, oatmeal

  132. 10:18with milk, apples, rice pudding. And

  142. 11:53potato. Apples, pastries, cake, muesli.
  143. 12:11There is a variety of milk to choose
  144. 12:13from here. By the way, there are
  145. 12:18already a lot of people in the morning.
  146. 12:19Yogurt, butter. Oatmeal, cereals,
  147. 12:31toppings, halva, jam, honeycomb, honey.

  158. 14:07. We've looked at everything. Now we'll
  159. 14:13grab a plate. Let's try it. We also
  160. 14:19have natural strawberry juice, guava,
  161. 14:24mango, and orange. Look at this spread.
  162. 14:34I sat a bit further away on purpose so
  163. 14:36it's clearly visible in the sunlight.
  164. 14:40So, red fish, several types of cheese.
  165. 14:43And there's some white fish here too.
  166. 14:45Need to try it. Olives, basturma,
  167. 14:49vegetables, potatoes, sweet potatoes. I
  168. 14:53took some fresh pineapple, kiwi, butter
  169. 14:58, and pastries. I also grabbed some
  170. 15:02natural mango juice from the dispenser.
  171. 15:05So, bon appétit, everyone. The
  172. 15:08selection is good. Now we're going to
  173. 15:12try everything. Honestly, it's nice
  174. 15:14visiting hotels like this.
  175. 15:18>> Yeah.
  176. 15:22>> So, reach out to Tatiana. Tanya will
  177. 15:25calculate how much this hotel or any
  178. 15:28other one will cost.
  179. 15:31>> Friends, wishing you all the best mood.
  180. 15:34GrandTour travel agency, and I, Tatiana
  181. 15:37, am with you. Today we are reviewing a
  182. 15:40very cool hotel, Steigenberger Alcazar.
  183. 15:44All my guests note the high level of
  184. 15:46service at this hotel. And it's at a
  185. 15:50good price right now: 2,000 euros for
  186. 15:52six nights for two. Departing from
  187. 15:55Chisinau. Slava will inspect this hotel
  188. 15:58. And I remind you that we can book
  189. 16:00more than just Egypt. The winter season
  190. 16:03is approaching, which means exotic
  191. 16:06destinations. So, the Maldives,
  192. 16:09Dominican Republic, Thailand, UAE. We
  193. 16:12also have a flight program to Dubai. I
  194. 16:15look forward to your calls. Write, call
  195. 16:18, don't forget. But right now we're at
  196. 16:22Steigenberger Alcazar. Everyone watch
  197. 16:25and leave comments. Wishing everyone a
  198. 16:28good mood. Everything is super so far.
  199. 16:36The only thing is that at Rixos, there
  200. 16:39was mango. I haven't found mango here
  201. 16:41yet. I'm going to record a story now.
  202. 16:44Follow me on Instagram for the freshest
  203. 16:46information. Time flies, it's already
  204. 16:498:50. The guys already came by and
  205. 16:52asked what I'd like to drink. I said, "
  206. 16:56Nothing yet, we're going to try
  207. 16:58everything first." Everything tastes
  208. 17:42good so far. The goat cheese and the
  209. 17:44sweet potatoes are excellent. I've
  210. 17:50already moved on to dessert. Now let's
  211. 17:54try the pastries. I went and got coffee
  212. 17:58. Well, you can ask the staff, and they
  213. 18:01will bring it. So, overall, I had a
  214. 18:13pleasant breakfast. Now we'll head to
  215. 18:17reception; I want them to set up my
  216. 18:19Wi-Fi. I need to check the speed and
  217. 18:22how it works. Since we are in Nabq, you
  218. 18:29can see there's a light breeze today.
  219. 18:33It's interesting to see, we have a long
  220. 18:35pier here. Which flag it is, yellow or
  221. 18:40red. The days are getting shorter,
  222. 18:44there's no more crazy heat. It turns
  223. 18:47out the majority of tourists are
  224. 18:50Europeans. I'm just reading the
  225. 18:55comments that you're writing. Most of
  226. 18:58our tourists come for the sea. By the
  227. 19:02way, the restaurant is small, but there
  228. 19:05are free tables. We have a large pool.
  229. 19:12By the way, look at our hotel map. Here
  230. 19:16is the beach and sun loungers. One pool
  231. 19:20. Second one. Third. There are a lot of
  232. 19:27older tourists. Look at what a lounge
  233. 19:31area there is here. I was at Rixos, you
  234. 19:49connect to the internet automatically
  235. 19:51there, but here it's via room number.
  236. 19:55So now we’ll go to reception and I'll
  237. 19:58try to connect to the internet. I’ve
  238. 20:01finished my business and want to test
  239. 20:02the speed. Guys, I've been connected to
  240. 20:05the internet. Here, look, we have
  241. 20:08Turkish coffee. Yes, Turkish,
  242. 20:10>> right?
  243. 20:11>> Uh-huh.
  244. 20:13>> Turkish coffee and a lobby bar. Here is
  245. 20:20a lounge area. Everything looks
  246. 20:24beautiful. Expensive and rich. Look at
  247. 20:30the chandelier. Look here, sweets,
  248. 20:40natural juice, dates, chocolate and our
  249. 20:49bar. Let's order something now. Some
  250. 20:55kind of cocktail. Ordered a Pornstar.
  251. 20:59Now, guys, let's make and try the
  252. 21:02cocktail. He's cooling the shaker with
  253. 21:05ice. Cabana.
  254. 21:11>> Our bartender.
  255. 21:12>> Ahd.
  256. 21:13>> Ahmet.
  257. 21:14>> Ahmed. Everything is good.
  258. 21:18>> All done. Wonderful.
  259. 21:19>> Subar.
  260. 21:20>> Yeah.
  261. 21:24>> Oh. Oh, crunchy.
  262. 21:40>> Let's go taste the drinks. There we go.
  263. 21:47So, they should actually give a shot of
  264. 21:50champagne too according to all the
  265. 21:55rules. I don't see passion fruit yet.
  266. 22:08The cocktails are a bit simpler than at
  267. 22:11Rixos. Today the sun is so bright, you
  268. 22:16could get sunburned. Now let's walk
  269. 22:22around the grounds and see how
  270. 22:23everything looks. I'm looking, we have
  271. 22:26such a huge pool at the beginning. So,
  272. 22:29look, there are cabanas by the pool.
  273. 22:42Sun loungers. Easy entry, handrails,
  274. 22:59steps. Everything is perfectly clean.
  275. 23:04The depth is 1.55 meters. There are, by
  276. 23:25the way, few people in the hotel.
  277. 23:28Almost all the sun loungers are free.
  278. 23:31There's a shower and a sun shade there.
  279. 23:40Since it's a Jaz hotel, maybe the
  280. 23:43towels are in the room. Three-story
  281. 23:59buildings. I've been in Egypt for 4
  282. 24:10years, and this is my first time
  283. 24:13staying at this hotel. There is a
  284. 24:21gentle entry here, the depth increases
  285. 24:23gradually. That's how our main pool
  286. 24:31near the reception looks. Another pool
  287. 24:38for children. Everything is free, 45 cm
  288. 24:48deep. And it's cool that there is a
  289. 24:52canopy here. Here is the restaurant by
  290. 24:59the pool.
  291. 25:09>> Soft music is playing. In general, such
  292. 25:13a relaxing atmosphere in the morning.
  293. 25:19Let's take some measurements now. I
  294. 25:20wonder what the pool temperature is.
  295. 25:22This is what the sun loungers look like
  296. 25:25. They are worn out in some places. By
  297. 25:34the way, look, the pools are already
  298. 25:36starting to cool down gradually. 26.2
  299. 25:38° is the water temperature in the pool
  300. 25:41, even 25.8. And the air temperature on
  301. 25:46October 8th is 30.7. So, we have a bar
  302. 25:53here by the pool where you can order
  303. 25:56drinks.
  304. 26:01>> There's a coffee machine, and the fans
  305. 26:04are running. You see, birds are flying,
  306. 26:08waiting for them to set the tables.
  307. 26:11There will probably be snacks for lunch
  308. 26:13here. I see they have chips available
  309. 26:16here. Nuts. There. Notice those on the
  310. 26:23first floor have a pool with stairs
  311. 26:27leading directly into it. See, one, two
  312. 26:32, three, they made a nice closed-off
  313. 26:34area. Look, the buildings are three
  314. 26:37stories high there. Here are the pool
  315. 26:40stairs; they even added a fence on this
  316. 26:44side. It feels like a private area.
  317. 26:49Behind the main pool, where the sun
  318. 26:51loungers and the bar are. There is a
  319. 26:53restroom behind the snack bar. Let’s
  320. 26:57walk around first to see the grounds,
  321. 27:00then head toward the beach. There’s
  322. 27:03also a sign for the gym. We’ll head
  323. 27:06in there now. The trees are beautifully
  324. 27:10trimmed around the grounds, lots of
  325. 27:13greenery, palm trees. There are special
  326. 27:24feeders for the birds, and feed. This
  327. 27:29is the kids 'club. Schedule is from 10
  328. 27:40to 5, and from 8:30 to 9 PM there’s a
  329. 27:44mini-disco. The kids have water, sweets
  330. 27:54, fruit, and tables here. Hello.
  331. 27:59>> And this is the room where the kids
  332. 28:02draw. Table football. The air
  333. 28:11conditioning is on. Entertainers.
  334. 28:18>> Swings, slides, and a kids' pool here.
  335. 28:26Also a playground and mini-football.
  336. 28:29And don't forget the GrandTour travel
  337. 28:31agency, Tatiana from Vinnytsia. She
  338. 28:34will book this hotel or any other for
  339. 28:36you. There are often deals, so write to
  340. 28:40Tatiana. By the way, I’ve gone up to
  341. 28:43the second floor. I see a Chinese
  342. 28:46restaurant here. Maybe we’ll even
  343. 28:49book something for today. And from up
  344. 28:52here, you can already see the sea. Look
  345. 28:55, when you enter the hotel on the left,
  346. 29:00there's a tennis court, football, and
  347. 29:04here is the spa and gym. The spa is
  348. 29:10open from 10 to 7. Look, there's almost
  349. 29:17no one here, which is great. A 45 cm
  350. 29:21zone for the little ones. And the pool
  351. 29:25for adults is 1 meter 45 deep. We have
  352. 29:31a separate entrance to the gym, open
  353. 29:33from 8 AM to 8 PM. On the second floor.
  354. 29:44So, what’s here? Infused water, plain
  355. 29:49water, towels, apples. Air conditioning
  356. 29:56is on; machines for chest, legs, rowing
  357. 29:58. You can do pull-ups here. Back.
  358. 30:06Shoulder machine, cardio zone,
  359. 30:09treadmills, elliptical, ski trainer.
  360. 30:16Parallel bars. Abs, bench. Back,
  361. 30:26dumbbells. Hyperextension, small
  362. 30:31dumbbells, mats, ball. The dumbbells,
  363. 30:38by the way, are quite small. Basically,
  364. 30:42they have the essentials for a workout.
  365. 30:46You can maintain your fitness. The guys
  366. 30:50are doing great. Into sports, working
  367. 30:52out in the morning. And you can tell
  368. 30:55who works out by their physique.
  369. 31:01Let’s go into the spa and see what we
  370. 31:04have here. You can book once for free
  371. 31:09—sauna, jacuzzi, steam room—
  372. 31:12otherwise, it costs money. Let’s see
  373. 31:16what it all looks like. You need to
  374. 31:21make a reservation at the reception.
  375. 31:24Look, a relaxation area. Jacuzzi.
  376. 31:29There's a bar here, and a sauna. Steam
  377. 31:37room, showers. Well, that’s
  378. 31:42everything I managed to see. Now we're
  379. 31:45heading to the beach, we'll take a look
  380. 31:48at the grounds, and then we'll check
  381. 31:51with reception to see if there are any
  382. 31:54rooms available. In general, this hotel
  383. 31:57is always quite expensive. It’s
  384. 32:00supposed to be more quiet and relaxing.
  385. 32:04People come here, most likely, for
  386. 32:07high-quality service, good food, and
  387. 32:10peace and quiet. And now we'll check
  388. 32:14everything regarding the beach, because
  389. 32:17I still haven’t dived from the pier
  390. 32:21here, I don't know what the reef is
  391. 32:22like. Good news. I just happened to
  392. 32:25walk up to the reception, and they're
  393. 32:27already giving me room 515. Now we’re
  394. 32:31going to go take a look at it.
  395. 32:34They’re going to take me to the room
  396. 32:36on a golf cart now. They’re giving us
  397. 32:39a room early. So, it's 10:40, and we're
  398. 32:44already checking in. ATM. Here you can
  399. 32:50exchange dollars for pounds. There will
  400. 32:56be a show program here by the bar,
  401. 32:59right nearby. A small tour of the
  402. 33:16territory. We're going to the upper
  403. 33:26floors. There should be a nice view,
  404. 33:29hopefully, from the room, I hope. Okay,
  405. 33:34so here is my room 5115. Yay! Let's
  406. 33:39take a look at the room. We’ll start,
  407. 33:42as always, with the balcony. I'm happy
  408. 33:46that it faces the pool, not the garden
  409. 33:49or a fence. This works as an à la
  410. 33:53carte restaurant in the evening, but
  411. 33:55during the day, you can probably grab a
  412. 33:57snack here. So, what do we have here?
  413. 34:00An ashtray, a table, a small balcony
  414. 34:06like this. You can bring a rope, string
  415. 34:09it up, and dry your clothes. It's not
  416. 34:13recommended to use this, because there
  417. 34:15might be some rust. Then it gets on the
  418. 34:18white clothes. Let's see what the room
  419. 34:20looks like. A compliment, green apples,
  420. 34:25an armchair, a TV, a desk. Here is a
  421. 34:31double bed. That's what it all looks
  422. 34:35like. The air conditioning is working.
  423. 34:39Carpeting. So, let's look at the
  424. 34:53textiles. Wow, look at this pillow.
  425. 34:56This one is super soft. This one is a
  426. 35:01bit firmer. So you have a choice if you
  427. 35:04want one higher or lower. So, here you
  428. 35:13see, since this is the Jaz
  429. 35:16Steigenberger chain, you have to carry
  430. 35:20your towel with you. For instance, at
  431. 35:23Rixos you just drop it. In that regard,
  432. 35:26of course, that's an advantage. And
  433. 35:30next, there's coffee, tea, and a kettle
  434. 35:36. This is for a fee. Chips and the
  435. 35:40mini-bar in the fridge are also for a
  436. 35:45fee. Chocolate, and beer, mineral water
  437. 35:50, wine. What else do we have here?
  438. 35:54Pepsi, Mirinda, non-alcoholic beer, 7
  439. 35:58Up, and Pepsi Zero. Beer, Stella,
  440. 36:06Heineken. This is all for a fee. But
  441. 36:09this plain bottled water, this is free
  442. 36:13in our mini-bar. Rixos doesn't have
  443. 36:16this. At Rixos, there's beer and water.
  444. 36:23Everything was included. Here,
  445. 36:26everything is limited. They gave me one
  446. 36:29card for the room, but the second card
  447. 36:32is already in the slot. That's very
  448. 36:34good. Everything will keep charging.
  449. 36:38Their concept is based on a QR code.
  450. 36:43Also, they gave me one free visit to
  451. 36:46the spa salon and a 10-euro discount on
  452. 36:50a massage. That's how it is. QR code.
  453. 36:55You can go in and read it. I think they
  454. 36:58have five free a la carte restaurants.
  455. 37:02You can book them. There are just
  456. 37:11shelves here, you can leave something.
  457. 37:17Full-length mirror. Free safe. Shelves
  458. 37:33for clothes, two robes, slippers. I
  459. 37:40don't know, my followers, it's been how
  460. 37:43long, maybe five or six years, they
  461. 37:45said: "We've been to every hotel.""We
  462. 37:48liked this one more than the Rixos."
  463. 37:50Well, I don't really see it as better
  464. 37:53yet, I don't know. Write in the
  465. 37:56comments. I wouldn't say so. Let's look
  466. 38:00at the bathroom. Mirror, hairdryer,
  467. 38:04here's a dispenser, lotion, shampoo,
  468. 38:08magnifying mirror, washbasin. Sometimes
  469. 38:17there are scales, too. I don't see them
  470. 38:19yet. Bathtub, mirror here. Towels go
  471. 38:26here. There's also a shower cabin, gel,
  472. 38:32shampoo, a large shower head. Now we'll
  473. 38:40check the water pressure. Two large
  474. 38:45towels, two small ones. A separate
  475. 38:49cabin, a bidet and the toilet. Phone to
  476. 39:03contact the reception. That's how
  477. 39:07everything looks. In general, it's very
  478. 39:10interesting to check into another
  479. 39:12premium hotel, Steigenberger, in
  480. 39:14contrast to Rixos. A solid door, but
  481. 39:23this Alzar is considered a high-level
  482. 39:26hotel. That's it, now we'll change and
  483. 39:32go see the grounds. The beach, I'm glad
  484. 39:35the guys gave me the room right away.
  485. 39:38And how is the shower? Everything is in
  486. 39:40perfect order. Good pressure, large
  487. 39:44shower head. I haven't tried the
  488. 39:47bathtub yet. I probably won't be lying
  489. 39:49in it. There is a bidet shower. Here,
  490. 39:56the towels are, of course, all clean
  491. 39:58and smell fresh. The room is also in
  492. 40:02perfect order. I’ve already put on,
  493. 40:04you see, a white robe. And these things
  494. 40:08about the paid bar, that's fine, let
  495. 40:12them be in Jazz hotels, but if it's a
  496. 40:15premium hotel, I believe these things
  497. 40:18should be included in the price.
  498. 40:21Especially since the price is almost
  499. 40:23300 dollars a night. And, well, I would
  500. 40:28also like these things to be there,
  501. 40:31like having capsule coffee. It's just
  502. 40:35good, look, that we arrived. When I
  503. 40:39returned to Egypt from the Arab
  504. 40:42Emirates, we looked at mid-range hotels
  505. 40:44with you, there was Votel and
  506. 40:46Experience Sea Breeze. Then we looked
  507. 40:51at two budget hotels, one of which just
  508. 40:54opened, Rasto. And after that, we
  509. 41:00started looking at premium hotels, for
  510. 41:03different levels of followers, because
  511. 41:09some of my viewers only travel to
  512. 41:11premium hotels and say: "We are waiting
  513. 41:13for luxury hotels." And also, you know
  514. 41:17how people don't want to go to the same
  515. 41:19hotels. For example, they've been to
  516. 41:22Rixos, they want to see something new,
  517. 41:23new, new. I've checked almost all the
  518. 41:26hotels in Sharm, and in my opinion,
  519. 41:28Rixos is number one. Number one in
  520. 41:31everything. In terms of the show
  521. 41:34program, the food is good, the service,
  522. 41:36everything. In general, Rixos currently
  523. 41:39has no competitors. When I was in
  524. 41:42Hurghada, I also liked Xanadu, it's
  525. 41:44also a good level. I stayed at Rixos
  526. 41:47Magawish and Xanadu, both were very
  527. 41:50high level. And I also liked Jaz
  528. 41:52Aquaviva, specifically for the food. It
  529. 41:55was super, there are some issues with
  530. 41:56the beach, but in principle. Well,
  531. 41:58right now we are looking at
  532. 42:01Steigenberger. I didn't really like the
  533. 42:04one in Hurghada, however it was. Not
  534. 42:06really for me. There are several of
  535. 42:07them there. There is one decent one
  536. 42:09somewhere. Look, the animation has
  537. 42:12started. They've inflated a ring. Some
  538. 42:21dancing in the pool. I'll show you.
  539. 42:24This is our second pool. I showed you
  540. 42:27the first one near the reception. This
  541. 42:28is the second one. Half-steps. Entry
  542. 42:31for this pool. There's a bar, chips,
  543. 42:36alcohol, and a sunshade. Tables. Detox
  544. 42:40water is here. Fruits.
  545. 42:46>> There's coffee.
  546. 42:49>> A coffee machine is there. There are
  547. 42:53chips. Canned beer. Our bartender.
  548. 43:01Let's try it now. Cornstar. There is
  549. 43:04champagne. A very large number of
  550. 43:24foreigners speaking English. Mostly,
  551. 43:27it’s a very European-style hotel here
  552. 43:30.
  553. 43:35>> Comment on what you think. See, guys,
  554. 43:38they’re providing service right here,
  555. 43:41bringing drinks to the sunbeds. Sat in
  556. 43:45the shade, grabbed some chips. I really
  557. 43:51want to show you what’s here. See,
  558. 43:58the guy is bringing hibiscus tea and
  559. 44:01iced coffee. So, I walked around this
  560. 44:07pool. Towels everywhere, everything is
  561. 44:10taken. Now we'll go closer to the beach
  562. 44:17, I'll show you the situation, the flag
  563. 44:19, the pier, and the beach entry.
  564. 44:21There's a shower here. Actually, look,
  565. 44:31there is my building. Near this pool.
  566. 44:35So, we looked at one pool at the
  567. 44:36beginning, that’s the second one. And
  568. 44:39here further on is the third one. And
  569. 44:43for some reason, everyone is by the
  570. 44:45pools. The trees are beautifully
  571. 44:48trimmed. And here it’s so relaxing
  572. 44:56and quiet. Who wants to read? I see
  573. 45:03people mostly lying with books, reading
  574. 45:05. Also, practically everything is taken
  575. 45:09. Sunbeds. Comfortable pool entry,
  576. 45:16steps, and it’s shallow here for kids
  577. 45:20to lie down. Rubber mats on the sides
  578. 45:24so you don't slip. By the way, you
  579. 45:27could
  580. 45:28>> fall. And a bar next to the pool, there
  581. 45:36is a bar by every pool. Well, if you
  582. 45:40want to lie down, I don't see any free
  583. 45:42spots yet. So, look, we have ice cream
  584. 45:50in packets freely available, which is
  585. 45:52very pleasing. You can lie on the grass
  586. 45:55. Look at this, what an interesting
  587. 46:00pool here. Water is flowing down. Dear
  588. 46:07guests, please do not reserve sunbeds
  589. 46:10and towels. In case of your absence for
  590. 46:13an hour, the sunbed will be cleared.
  591. 46:18Well, I don't know, everything is taken
  592. 46:19, it's hard to find a place to lie down
  593. 46:21. It's a problem finding a sun lounger.
  594. 46:24The girls from the administration, I
  595. 46:25spoke with them, they are from Ukraine.
  596. 46:27There are seven restaurants here, you
  597. 46:30can book them yourself using a QR code.
  598. 46:32Look, there are nudists playing golf
  599. 46:35here. A stage, maybe tonight we'll see
  600. 46:40what will be happening on the beach. Eh
  601. 46:45, the guys are playing golf. The man,
  602. 46:47by the way, lowered—I won't film it
  603. 46:49—he lowered his underwear, rolled it
  604. 46:51up in the back, basically, so his
  605. 46:53bottom would tan. I haven't seen
  606. 46:55anything like this before, of course.
  607. 46:57Girls, one question. Men, you rarely
  608. 47:00see something like this. Look, by the
  609. 47:05way, we have already reached the beach.
  610. 47:09Cool fluffy umbrellas. Here is a sports
  611. 47:13zone, football, tennis. And the coolest
  612. 47:18rooms are these kinds of villas. Most
  613. 47:21likely, there is also a pool there.
  614. 47:27It's made private. You can't even tell
  615. 47:29if there's a pool there or not. Sun
  616. 47:31loungers are standing there. Yes, there
  617. 47:33is a pool, I see railings. So these
  618. 47:37rooms by the sea are the coolest ones.
  619. 47:43Look, there's a fence. And here's the
  620. 47:48promenade along the beach. And our pier
  621. 47:56. Now we will start from the right side
  622. 47:59, walk along the beach, and I'll show
  623. 48:01you the sea entry. The sun is shining,
  624. 48:05palm trees. And green grass. We have a
  625. 48:12red flag hanging. Most likely, we won't
  626. 48:14be able to swim off the pier in the
  627. 48:16first half of the day. I hope we'll be
  628. 48:19able to swim in the second half. I just
  629. 48:23want to see what the underwater world
  630. 48:25is like here and how they transport
  631. 48:28people, because it should be long. A
  632. 48:31golf cart should be transporting people
  633. 48:34. Oh, by the way, I don't know why my
  634. 48:38subscribers say that they've been
  635. 48:40everywhere and that Steigenberger is
  636. 48:43the best hotel. I don't know, but that
  637. 48:46was a long time ago, five or six years
  638. 48:49ago. At the moment, I've looked at all
  639. 48:53the Rixos hotels. In my opinion, that
  640. 48:56is currently the coolest hotel. It has
  641. 49:00a water park for both kids and adults.
  642. 49:03There is no water park here. Here we
  643. 49:06have a bar right on the beach. Tables.
  644. 49:14This kind of shade from the sun. You
  645. 49:22can drink cocktails here. The fans are
  646. 49:27running. It works from 10:00 to 17:30.
  647. 49:35Snacks from 12:30 to 17:00. And there
  648. 49:39is also a dinner restaurant here, I see
  649. 49:41, by reservation, it's open from 19:00
  650. 49:44to 22:00. There is a toilet on the
  651. 49:47beach, a changing room, and a bar here.
  652. 50:09>> By the way, they have canned beer here,
  653. 50:10but they don't give it in cans, they
  654. 50:12open it themselves and pour it. Glasses
  655. 50:15. Now let's check the situation on the
  656. 50:21beach and the availability of free sun
  657. 50:23loungers. By the way, I've arrived at
  658. 50:28the beach, and there isn't a single row
  659. 50:30of free sun loungers. Practically
  660. 50:34everything is occupied, practically,
  661. 50:37you see, on the right side. Here are
  662. 50:47the cabanas. Let's go to the sea now
  663. 50:59and take a look. It's strange that I
  664. 51:02don't see any free ones near the pools
  665. 51:05or the beach. This zone is occupied.
  666. 51:07The next one too. And in the distance,
  667. 51:11it's reserved. Perhaps this is a paid
  668. 51:14area. This is what our shore entry
  669. 51:22looks like. What? Tell me, how do you
  670. 51:36feel about a vacation for 290 dollars a
  671. 51:40day per person? Tatyana from Karandur
  672. 51:44Travel Agency says: Sva, you need to
  673. 51:46show Steigenberger for contrast. Look,
  674. 51:49for example, here people are walking,
  675. 51:52there is practically no depth. Here is
  676. 51:55a person lying down, they moved 10
  677. 51:58meters from the shore and there is
  678. 52:01nowhere even to lie down. In Radamis,
  679. 52:04there are lagoons where you can go in
  680. 52:06and lie down, with knee-deep or
  681. 52:08waist-deep entry from the shore. I
  682. 52:10don't see any of that here yet. And now
  683. 52:13, you see, it's low tide, the water has
  684. 52:15gone out. And with these guys, you see,
  685. 52:18you can learn. It costs 300 dollars.
  686. 52:22They will teach you for 3 days, and you
  687. 52:24will be riding a board. There is the
  688. 52:28guy, you see, the instructor is
  689. 52:29teaching. It's a windy spot, perfect
  690. 52:33for summer, by the way, you feel better
  691. 52:35, it's not as hot as the bays in Nabq.
  692. 52:39But in winter, of course, it's better
  693. 52:41to choose something else, a more
  694. 52:44windless place. We have a red flag. But
  695. 52:49if you walk along the pier and go down
  696. 52:51the stairs, there is an entry like that
  697. 52:53. I'll show you now. By the way, look,
  698. 52:57there are few sun loungers on the beach
  699. 53:00, and it turns out that either
  700. 53:01everything is free, or it's not.
  701. 53:04Honestly, if I wanted to lie down
  702. 53:06somewhere right now, I don't see
  703. 53:08anywhere to lie down at all. There is
  704. 53:10no sun lounger. But look, I found some.
  705. 53:14One, two. Over there further is a third
  706. 53:17sun lounger. But generally, here is
  707. 53:21another, a second sun lounger. Well,
  708. 53:26there are few sun loungers, honestly;
  709. 53:28usually, you lie down wherever you want
  710. 53:30. This place will likely host some
  711. 53:34classes, like yoga. Look, this whole
  712. 53:39part is paid, you see, they will bring
  713. 53:42you things here. It costs 300, ah, it
  714. 53:46costs 30 euros. You reserve it, and you
  715. 53:50will have drinks and fruits. A zone
  716. 53:54like that on the beach. Sun lounger.
  717. 53:59>> This is why I haven't seen all the
  718. 54:02hotels in Sharm. The hotels I haven't
  719. 54:05looked at either have astronomical
  720. 54:07prices, meaning they aren't worth the
  721. 54:09money to visit. So, we have already
  722. 54:11looked at all the most interesting
  723. 54:13hotels a long time ago. A long time ago
  724. 54:15. Although they are hunting for fish,
  725. 54:17it's even blowing away with the wind.
  726. 54:30In general, it is shallow here. Even if
  727. 54:33there is a high tide, here, you see,
  728. 54:36there are no lagoons where you could
  729. 54:38lie down. We reached a place where you
  730. 54:53can lie in the water like a starfish.
  731. 54:57You can leave your things here. You see
  732. 55:00, a green flag, descent. And here is a
  733. 55:07cleared area like this. Sand and depth.
  734. 55:12So, I don't know. Comment with your
  735. 55:16opinion, it is very interesting. I
  736. 55:18won't go further because there is a red
  737. 55:20flag there. I hope they put up the
  738. 55:22green flag after lunch, and we'll be
  739. 55:25able to swim, I hope. Either today or
  740. 55:28tomorrow. Beautiful. Look at the Sinai
  741. 55:31Mountains. Somewhere there in the bay,
  742. 55:40I think, is the Barceló Tiran hotel. A
  743. 55:44pretty good option with decent food.
  744. 55:48And the price for it is also good.
  745. 55:51People return to it many times. Look,
  746. 55:56at Rixos, for example, even if there's
  747. 55:59a red flag, there's a saltwater pool,
  748. 56:02there's a super cool kids 'club for
  749. 56:05children, there's, uh, a shore entrance
  750. 56:13. Oh yeah, in general, like, I think
  751. 56:16Rixos is much better, and price-wise
  752. 56:19it’s even more expensive than RX. The
  753. 56:23time is already 12:37. Now, probably,
  754. 56:26lunch has either started or is about to
  755. 56:28. Anyway, we're going to go check out
  756. 56:31the lunch and the food now. By the way,
  757. 56:34a photo zone for the girls. See, you
  758. 56:37can take beautiful photos on the swing
  759. 56:42with the sea in the background, I'll
  760. 56:47show you.
  761. 56:50>> Hello, sir. My name is
  762. 56:52>> Do we have diving here, right? How much
  763. 56:54does it
  764. 56:54>> cost? Do you have a certificate? Yes, I
  765. 56:56have a certificate. Oh
  766. 56:58>> no, I don't have a certificate.
  767. 56:59>> First time?
  768. 57:00>> No, I’ve already dived four times.
  769. 57:01>> Four times. You can do 30 minutes and
  770. 57:03...
  771. 57:04>> How much?
  772. 57:05>> When you’re arranging the diving,
  773. 57:08decide on the spot, because they will
  774. 57:11lower the price. There's the diving
  775. 57:14club. It's an expensive hotel. Here,
  776. 57:17naturally, all services will be more
  777. 57:21expensive than, say, in Naama Bay.
  778. 57:25Let's have some champagne to lift the
  779. 57:27spirits. Ah, shukran, everything is
  780. 57:29khalas.
  781. 57:37>> In this bar, you can order a snack. See
  782. 57:39, soup, appetizers, salads. tuna,
  783. 57:56>> pasta, red fish, desserts. The most
  784. 58:05interesting thing is, looking at the
  785. 58:07sunbeds, there are many people, and the
  786. 58:10hotel is popular. In short, people are
  787. 58:12relaxing. Everything, you know, as they
  788. 58:15say, is known by comparison. To
  789. 58:18determine what is bad or good, you
  790. 58:20first need to stay in various hotels at
  791. 58:23roughly the same price. Therefore, it
  792. 58:27is too early to draw conclusions. A
  793. 58:29huge thank you to Tatyana for ordering
  794. 58:31this hotel review. Reach out to her for
  795. 58:34a package tour. Tatyana will offer you
  796. 58:38the options that suit you best. Whether
  797. 58:41it's this hotel or some other options.
  798. 58:43All useful links are in the description
  799. 58:45. My Instagram, uh, Mango Market Doctor
  800. 58:49Noor. Peace, kindness, and lots of
  801. 58:51money. Now we're going to go to lunch,
  802. 58:54we'll swim in the sea and the pools. I
  803. 58:58hope there will be a yellow flag. Yes,
  804. 59:00you know, I remember about five years
  805. 59:03ago when I was at this hotel, some
  806. 59:05subscribers were vacationing here, and
  807. 59:08I came to visit them. I did a small
  808. 59:12review back then. Although, of course,
  809. 59:14at that time I wasn't really looking at
  810. 59:18premium hotels yet. The best I had back
  811. 59:22then was the Albatros. Well, of course,
  812. 59:26that hotel seemed super, super cool to
  813. 59:28me. But after some time, once I’d
  814. 59:33been to almost all the hotels, you
  815. 59:36start looking at it all differently.
  816. 59:39That’s it, thanks for watching. Peace
  817. 59:42, kindness, more money, and good hotels
  818. 59:44. I'll see you again tomorrow. Goodbye.
  819. 59:47Thank you.
