Enticing Egypt
We left home that morning and all I can remember was the rain! We got to the airport and boarded the flight. The best thing about this holiday was that I did not have to worry that I would be sitting on that flight for too long.
When we got to Egypt, the aircraft doors opened and all I remember is the heat - it was great. My children were well excited that they had some sun and left all their friends behind in the rain.
We chose to stay at the Jaz Mirabel Beach Hotel. It was brilliant - a perfect choice. We had a family room but they had interconnecting doors so me and my partner had some privacy too. The hotel had it's own children's club, we were right on the beach and it was all inclusive - just perfect!
The children would go to the club at 10am after breakfast and would do some activities, return for lunch and go back to the club. The rep's would then take them in the afternoon to the Aquapark at the sister hotel next door and swim with them. After 4pm they would then bring them back and take them for some pizza, or burgers and ice-cream. It was great, they loved it and so did we.
The fantastic children's club allowed for me and my partner to enjoy some quality time together so we would then go swimming, or the gym, quad biking from the beach, and on one occasion we even hired a moped and explored the surrounding hotels.
We visited Cairo for the day which we booked locally, and they even arranged our visa's for us as we did not get them when we arrived.
In the evenings we would visit Naama bay, to try some Shisha and Arabian tea.
There are many clubs in Naama Bay too so if you fancy some nightlife it's great. The beaches are great - the water is crystal clear blue, and corals are amazing. We went to see the dolphins, and if you have ever dreamed of swimming with one then you can in Egypt and it's not that expensive. I could not get myself to stroke one, let alone swim with one... I was too petrified.
I would definitely go back especially for some Winter sun .
