Luxury at half the price

It was decision time. Stay as Masbat or honor the reservation at the hotel further up the beach which was more expensive. Decided to leave the crowded confines for something a bit easier on the ears and lighter on the eyes.
Didn't expect much but were pleasantly surprised. Not sure if it was owing to the recent spate of problems in Egypt or because the hotel was still fairly new but everything was spotless and not comparative cost wise to what you would usually pay for these rooms. Ocean view, jacuzzi, outdoor private bath, outdoor seating area. Finally a break to soothe the travel budget.

A very necessary one too since the sun here was a wonderful roasting 40 C.

Just more relaxing the day after as well, enjoying the coast. Today apparently is a heat wave. Still, still water, perfect for wake boarding but saving money to do some scuba instead.
