In this episode I'm exploring in Egypt for a short holiday and explored the most incredible resort I've ever seen. The Golden Five hotel in Hurghada. (This place opened in 2023 under a new name)
On this terrain you could find multiple resorts with incredible lobbies, shops, jewelry stores, pools and aquaparks.

I'm from Kenya. I worked in this hotel as an animator in 2019. Even before the pandemic it was already falling. A lot of dilapidated buildings and rooms were a trademark here. As at november 2019 only one of the hotels named Paradise was fully working. Emerald and The Club had fallen. Diamond had stopped working much earlier. We were not paid lots of salaries. They owe me 1100 US Dollars and I still feel sad about it to date.

[@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath]

O sorry to hear mate, that's a lot of money. Hope you found a new job now too!

[@awadramy1]

whats the name of this resort?

[@othwesjamabinju_]

@@awadramy1 Golden Five City.

[@beachcomberbloke462]

The size of resort is absolutely mind blowing. Can,t get over the fact that the watches and jewellery in that store remain untouched.

[@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath]

Yup, something I didnt expect either. Normally they empty such stores immediately.

[@Ravennevarr]

One moral lesson thing I'll teach my explorer friends or kids if we find abandoned jewelry/ money............ "Lifts with your legs not your back"

WOW, That place is massive. Can you imagine how much labor and money it took to just run this place day to day? Mind boggling. Thanks Rob!

[@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath]

Thanks for checking out😊Yeah, hard to imagine how much labor this was😮

[@IUN-PFK]

I came to see it after a long time, but I still think that the videos on this channel are better than other ruins exploration videos. Thanks for the fun video 😊 From a Japanese viewer🇯🇵

[@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath]

Thanks for the Japanese support😎👌

[@noahbulthuis1470]

We just stayed here for the last 8 days, and honestly they did quite a good job to fix it up in such a short period of time. Crazy to see the carpet is still the same though 😂

[@peterscotney1]

It amazes me that the place hasn't been looted ! What an excellent explore , keep up with the excellent work

[@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath]

Thanks ! It was a cool discovery. Some TOPNOTCH stuff coming up this year ;)

[@stevenpike7857]

You know the jewelry is crap when even the thieves don't steal it. LOL!

[@popkapnos_8581]

There is an abandoned hospital close to ioannina in greece. I belive its worth a trip

[@flightforensics4523]

Can't begin to imagine what it took to reopen this place!

[@minalba]

Amazing Bob! Keep rocking.

[@lindamesa5122]

Wow Bob, how is it possible that these places made so much money that they can just walk away and leave everything behind! It's like life after people!! Oh the weather is not 🥵🥵 it's been 45 degrees here in Arizona for weeks!!! Have a great week !!

[@walkie0talkie]

It can be used as a location for so many types of films, especially horror films.

Big, Beautiful and desolate lol the guards were clever not too do anything at noon you will get baked then, nice explore Rob would have loved too see more but the window of exploring time was a bit short i guess.

[@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath]

I cut out a lot, otherwise it would be too long too watch too. I missed 1 nice resort/building unfortunately. Thanks for the support as always😇

I have been a subscriber for years and this is one of the best places I have ever seen you explore. Sad to see it wasting away.

[@jesseliet1108]

Geweldig om te zien afgelopen zomer ben ik hier geweest het heet nu blend club Het is heel langzaam aan de wederopbouw bezig Wij wisten niet toen we boekte dat we hier terecht kwamen. Er waren hele oude foto’s gebruikt. Als je onder de piramide het terrein rechts opgaat dat is weer open. Je moest met een bus door de rest van de bouwval naar het zwembad park en strand Vanaf de glijbaan had je een mooi beeld. Van wat er allemaal nog achter gelaten is en nog opgeknapt moet worden de komende 50 Jaar

[@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath]

O, was het verder iets? Lijkt mij wel gaaf om eens terug te gaan nu het weer in gebruik is. Het hoofdgebouw met de enorme kroonluchter is toch ook weer open? :)

[@jesseliet1108]

@@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath wij waren er vorige zomer en toen waren ze druk met het oude hoogbouw want dat zou afgelopen kerst open moeten gaan maar als je keek wat ze nog moesten doen hebben ze dat geloof ik nooit gered Het heet nu blend club ofzo Ik vermoed dat het een tijdelijke optie is Want als ze het willen opknappen zoals het was Zijn ze met de Egyptische temperaturen enwerk tempo zeker nog 50 jaar bezig

[@annelieszieltjens4553]

Wij zijn hier nu. Ik was benieuwd naar de history van deze plaats en kwam deze video tegen. Het ziet er nu prachtig uit. Wat een werk is er verricht. De mooie oude details zijn bewaard gebleven. Het ziet er pico bello uit. Aanrader om hier naar toe te gaan. Top locatie

[@harmenm]

Great video Bob! It's reopened and called 'Calimera Blend Paradise'. Reviews are not really positive.

[@michaelw8966]

Did they demolish the pyramid? I’ve looked at the photos and can see the big chandelier but can’t see the pyramid 0:01

[@traceysaunders4711]

No the pyramid is at the entrance to the resorts. It's 5 hotels in one, hence the golden 5

[@simonjustsen4817]

ive also stayed at this hotel in 2015, thats so sad to see it being abandoned, love your videos.

[@Nicole_Ricaaa]

It must be totally crazy to see a hotel/lost place where you once went on vacation!!!! Amazing Video!

[@bender7565]

Amazing! Mine was nothing like that, a drive in and shopping ctr, but going back to where you knew what it used to be made it better. You're a crazy shit going alone and thank you. There has to be more than one pic of young Bob getting into something at such a resort.

[@bbo8689]

Wow! In 1997 of 1998 ben ik in dit hotel geweest met mijn broer en ouders. Het was toen splinternieuw, heel luxueus. Bijna treurig om te zien hoe het er nu bij ligt. Ongelofelijk dat je dit durfde te filmen, in Egypte nog wel 😅 Coole video Bob, bedankt!

[@tristanwoodmansee477]

This is an amazing place!!! Great explore!! I love it!!!

[@roeleboel]

Wow, ik ben hier een jaar of 18 geleden geweest met een incentive van het werk. Wij hebben hier toen een week verbleven en het was super deluxe. Ik denk dat de naam toen Almas Palace was of iets dergelijks. Vreemd om deze beelden nu te zien.

[@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath]

Ik was er ook 22 jaar geleden. Heel maf ja. En om het resort heen was flink meer bebouwing. Het lag toen wat meer “afgelegen” in de woestijn

[@JanElhj255]

Great adventure Bob

Thanks Jan! Hope you are doing good😎

[@LorenzoPadovani]

Thank you Bob. Amazing.

[@Jack33399]

Wow

[@jochemb.1748]

It looks as if this hotel complex has been abandoned in a hurry, like the ones in Fukushima. It is surprising that, when such a resort is given up, the dealers who offer their goods there, then leave the goods behind and do not simply empty the shop.

[@Metalstacker]

Wat tof om te exploren op een locatie waar je vroeger op vakantie bent geweest! Bizar om te zien hoeveel ze hebben achtergelaten, zeker die juwelier... wat een enorm resort zeg... respect voor het maken van de video in deze temperaturen, ik weet exact wat het is, heb zelf in Oman een gps spel gedaan tussen 1300 en 1700 in de middag. Was ruim 40 graden buiten en alle locals keken ons heel vreemd aan, die zaten zelf of binnen of in de airco in de auto 😂😂

[@boblloyd75]

Wow, good explore, it is amazing to see so many buildings not being used

Thank you for your beautiful and interesting videos and I wish I had met you earlier so that I wouldn't miss any videos, but as much as possible, I watch all of them from new to old, most of the time these videos make me feel good in every way. And that it's not like anyone else's videos, and I'm glad I found a great example that you are, I couldn't understand your language for a video you took of Fukushima from five years ago because I think you were speaking German, but these new ones are English I understand better when you talk, anyway, thank you my good friend.. 🙏😎🤟

In Hurghada right now. I did not notice the abandoned resorts but I walked about a mile up the coast from the Marriott and I did notice abut forty uncompleted apartment buildings with only one that had actual people working on the construction site. Most have roofs and a masonry core, looking at one right now next to the Marriott. A moron told me that this was a hot place for investment, like a said, a moron.

[@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath]

Haha, not really.... So much abandonments there. I explored many resorts in the area of Hurghada and Sharm el Sheikh. Only a few are being revived. Enjoy your holidays!
