Make the most of Makadi Bay
Pitched up close to the shores of Makadi Bay, with a front row seat to the Red Sea, it’s easy to see why Cleopatra Luxury Resort is a firm favourite. Whether you’re an action-loving adventurer or someone craving a week spent in the slow lane, you’ll manage it with ease here – this place is stacked to the rafters with activities and facilities.
It starts with the pool scene – which is top notch. Choose from four, which are dotted amongst the gardens that sit between the hotel and the sea. With options for relaxing, splashing about with the kids, and getting stuck into some water-based activities, there’s a pool to suit everyone – as well as a nearby bar to keep you fed and watered. If aqua aerobics aren’t your bag, the team lays on a load of activities on dry land, too. Think yoga, beach volleyball, and archery.
With the Red Sea – one of the world’s most iconic dive spots – on the doorstep and a fully certified diving centre on-site, if you’ve ever thought about snorkelling, this is definitely the place to take the plunge. The team here are set up to deal with all experience levels, so whether you’re a total newcomer or a seasoned pro, they’ll be able to get you out on the water (or more importantly, under it!)
Travelling with the kids? They’ll love it here, too. The kids’ club comes equipped with a couple of pocket-sized pools perfect for youngsters, plus a playground and a reading room. Add the daily programme of organised fun and games to that and you’ve got plenty to keep them entertained – maybe even enough to snag yourself some me-time, which is best spent unwinding in the serene surroundings of the spa.
And then there’s the food. Grab a plate and make the rounds at the main buffet restaurant – which is packed out with international and local options. The hotel also lines up an Oriental place dealing in light bites and snacks, plus an à la carte Italian joint.
As for drinks, the hotel’s got that well taken care of, too. A couple of bars are scattered across the hotel, so you’ll never be too far from a cocktail.
Just so you know, this hotel operates a dress code for its restaurants: no sportswear (eg running or swimming shorts), net/sleeveless shirts, or flip-flops. Three-quarter-length trousers are fine to wear.

Find out more about Makadi Bay
Studded with hotels and spas, it's one of the newer resorts on the block and features a relaxed atmosphere with a gentler vibe than Hurghada. Yet, there's plenty on offer for all ages and stages. Fine sandy beaches stretch tranquilly into waters that are just brimming with colourful corals and fascinating marine life. It's one of the area's best spots for exploring underwater, with caves, reefs and islands lying just off shore and a plethora of scuba and snorkelling shops back on land. Young ones - and those young at heart - will flip out for Egypt's biggest aquapark while Mini Egypt's charming miniature replicas will keep everyone happy for an afternoon at least.
