First they are no locals at the Breakers, or only very few.[...] It's a matter of dates selected, I'm getting 757 for 8-15 October but 1190$ for 22 to 29 October.
Indeed going down to about 100$ per room per night half board for 2 persons (as in the e-mail offer) sounds more realistic.
As for the locals, trust me I was amazed in August to see that Sharm hotels essentially relied on them and on tourists from Ukraine to stay open. I'm not saying it's the same at the Breakers but I wouldn't be too shocked if it was.
Nah, $100 USD per night for 2 half board would be too cheap for the breakers IMO. It’s not ‘all inclusive’ level food by any stretch...much better than that. The breakfast is 4* euro hotel standard.

I guess they were closed this summer, so may be difficult.Two nights in 2010 [...]
Again, the local presence came as surprising to me this summer in Sharm. If we are to compare oranges with oranges we would need someone who was at the Breakers this summer as well.
