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.
O sorry to hear mate, that's a lot of money. Hope you found a new job now too!
whats the name of this resort?
@@awadramy1 Golden Five City.
Somehow the hotel seems familiar to me. I was there in 2023
So often in this country…
The size of resort is absolutely mind blowing. Can,t get over the fact that the watches and jewellery in that store remain untouched.
Yup, something I didnt expect either. Normally they empty such stores immediately.
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"
@@Ravennevarrwhy
@@Ravennevarrwhat does that mean
Why dint U pick sum jewelry for Ur self
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!
Thanks for checking out😊Yeah, hard to imagine how much labor this was😮
It amazes me that the place hasn't been looted ! What an excellent explore , keep up with the excellent work
Thanks ! It was a cool discovery. Some TOPNOTCH stuff coming up this year ;)
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 😂
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🇯🇵
Thanks for the Japanese support😎👌
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.
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 !!
Amazing Bob! Keep rocking.
There is an abandoned hospital close to ioannina in greece. I belive its worth a trip
It must be totally crazy to see a hotel/lost place where you once went on vacation!!!! Amazing Video!
Amazing all those items left in the shops. 👍
Unreal explore you never let your subscribers down
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.
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😇
Thank you Bob for sharing. Much appreciated. It's a shame that things have been left behind 🙂👍💖 glad you made it in and out safely
I was not expecting to see an explore in Egypt - really amazing!
Thanks, I was there a few times before😎
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.
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!
Super exploringvideo, excellent!! Thnx & greets from the Netherlands
another great explore, thanks Bob
You know the jewelry is crap when even the thieves don't steal it. LOL!
This is an amazing place!!! Great explore!! I love it!!!
Thank you Bob. Amazing.
Wow! Amazing to see this now; I stayed there as well, for a week, when the resort was just opened in the ‘90’s.
Greetings from Amsterdam
ive also stayed at this hotel in 2015, thats so sad to see it being abandoned, love your videos.
Awesome explore, as usual! Thanks Bob 👍
Wow, good explore, it is amazing to see so many buildings not being used
Comment for supporting the channel. Nice footage from this resort.❤
Thanks for bingewatching!!🙏😇😎
Oh wow,This is impressive!! Very awesome that you got to stay at that beautiful resort! Safe Travels, Bob 💜
Thanks Brenda! This adventure was in 2021. Haven’t been on a trip recently. Prices went up like crazy😢 Got a cool roadtrip planned in a few months☺️
@@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath Oh super awesome,Bob! Yes,I understand everything is very expensive right now. I wish you the best! I'll soon be moving to Ohio where cost of living is cheaper.
Can't begin to imagine what it took to reopen this place!
I could imagine millions. The cost of reopening and revamping may be higher than the possible profit margins
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.. 🙏😎🤟
Thanks mate! The older ones have subtitles 😄
Great explore, Bob! 👍🏻👍🏻
It can be used as a location for so many types of films, especially horror films.
Very cool!!

Our A/C in Phoenix went out last night and it’s forecast to be 114 degrees Fahrenheit today, so I know exactly how you were feeling!
Wow
This is sad, this was the hotel i stayed when i first visited Egypt in the early 2000s and it was a dream, it`s sad to see it abandoned.It`s funny that while looking for hotels I should land on your site as i was thinking of going back to the same hotel 20 years later.
I hope they rebuild and open the place because I`d really love to go back
Happy holiday Bob.
Great to see you as the man in charge from the boy you were point of view. You look great?
From Craig. GB.
Great adventure Bob
Thanks Jan! Hope you are doing good😎
Damn, great video as usual.😊
Thanks, I really loved this explore. It was a “nice find”
Massive resort and really cool place to explore! I'm surprised you tried to leave the front door unlocked for next day in a well guarded place. If I was one of the security I would catch you next day...
Wow amazing video Bob ,👍 enjoyed this thanks for sharing 👍 great explore ❤what an amazing place, such a shame it's now abandoned, and can't believe u stayed there as a kid, 😱how weird! X
FANTASTICO GRACIAS
Great video Bob! It's reopened and called 'Calimera Blend Paradise'. Reviews are not really positive.
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
No the pyramid is at the entrance to the resorts. It's 5 hotels in one, hence the golden 5
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
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? :)
@@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
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
Es realmente el mejor abandono que vi, y excelentemente grabado todo, felicidades
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 😂😂
I am from Egypt. I am seeing the pyramids for the first time
Wonderful premier.
Thanks as always 🤩😎😍
Mind blowing
Amazing that jewellery is still there!!!! it it actual real gold and expensive watches? :O
Thanks for the video, great job !
Amazing Video my friend 👌
Awesome explore.
Nice. Would love to explore something with you and some buddies some day.
Wild how the one part shows how the sand just takes back over.
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.
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
Thanks Bob
That place looks like great place to take the kiddos
I’m visiting Egypt this weekend, oh boy I wanna see this, or not. Seems too risky, man you’re brave!
O where will you stay? 😄
I remember visiting this place as a kid. It was THE SHIT !
Great job bob. So enjoyed. Maybe next time you go, they'll waiting for you at airport 😂😂
Thanks Bob! Another great video 👍 “But I know you guys are picky…” haha
Très belle exploration! Petite anecdote marante : à 7'30" lorsque tu rentres dans le bar, on entend très bien ton cœur battre :p
If this place is now open you have to admire the amount of work to get this place cleaned up
Yup.. might go one day to check it😄
Please make an episode for all the other places too!
This was filmed 2021. Years ago...
Já deixado meu like 👍🏻😃 ótimo vídeo...top demais 😁 parabéns gostei 👏😊
Probably the most merchandise I’ve seen in a abandoned place.
For me #1 was the Fukushima exclusion zone😮
@@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath I need to go rewatch that one.
What a shame they couldn't keep the hotel maintained, what a waste😢
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.
How sad that so many beautiful places got hit during covid. I'd of thought they'd sell off what they could at least but I guess not.
Lets goooo 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹
Woohoo! Hope to explore in Italy soon again😎
@@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath you weren't banned from Italy for legal problems because I want a couple of places as bases born to know them
Awesome
Fantastic.
Thanks for checking out Eric!
I been here in Egypt for almost 13 years but I never hear about this resort,am jst so sad to watch this now😔😔💔💔
Support from🇮🇹
I was there on Vacation. There was a Cable Car in the Hotel

I forgot this, I am not picky when it comes to EUP, I click on all of them and so far they have all been great.
Nachdem bei dem Juwelier ein 2 € Stück liegt bei min 7:12 war das Hotel min bis 2000 noch geöfnet.
Oh das war ich schon 2 mal gewesen.Damals echt schön
Thanks for checking out!
God for you guy
Very 90's. I had flashbacks to high school multiple times.
Hello Bob!
You got guts man!
Looks like this hotel is now called Calimera Blend Paradise. Cable car also working again.
Good to hear the cable cart is running again! So the main building is in use again :)
Это прям целый мини город со множеством зданий и красивым интерьером внутри. Большая площадь курорта впечатляет. Суперский объект
cable car to the beach might be the best idea ive never thought of.
Gaaf hoor en kijk alles wel hoeft niet zo mooi te zijn maar verlaten met spullen achtergelaten is wel het mooist.
Este lugar lo buscas en internet y aparece abierto y hay opiniondd nuevas y los hoteles contestan mi duda es si ya lo abrieron o lo gravaste hace tiempo donde estuvo abandonado y despues lo remodelaron?
Surprised this is is in English Language. I thought Egypt was a different speaking language. However this is a beautiful place. Thanks for the tour.
I’m not a local but a guy who travels the world for abandonments😇
Heerlijk!
Thanks maatje 🤩
1:22 Dacia Car or Renault version of that one. :))
jeez your family must of had some moneyyy being able to stay there wow
I believe it was not a super expensive resort.. it’s Egypt😁
oohh thought Egypt was expensive!@@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath
If ya get tired of bribing guards … try the urbex experience in a conflict zone. Sure to get plenty of hits (pardon the pun).
The sands will reclaim it in time like the old Egypt.
Just have to imagine how many people were employed in these places - so sad. If they'd managed it properly, perhaps it would still be going today.
Коротке відео,але дуже цікаве!В мене мрія,після закінчення війни,також подорожувати як ви.
cool
amazing, what is the cause of this abandoned place? Is it due to loss or post-pandemic? thanks.
In the episode I say because less number of tourists, lack of maintenance and covid
@@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath it's a shame, thank you friend.. by the way my English listening skills are not good, so I don't understand what you are reviewing... hehehe.. so I use google translate hehehe.
