Hotels with balcony in Hurghada

We stayed at Grand Waterworld Makadi as a family of four, two adults and two children aged 4 and 5, and the hotel honestly exceeded our expectations. We arrived around 12:00 PM and had a very smooth check-in. The reception was calm and organized, and a special thanks to Mr. Mohamed Sabry, who was extremely welcoming, professional, and helpful. We received welcome drinks and were in our room within about 10 to 15 minutes. Without even asking, Mr. Mohamed Sabry arranged a very convenient room for us, close to the kids' aqua park, restaurants, and elevator. Since the resort is very large and we had two young children, this made a huge difference. The room was very spacious, more like a suite than a standard room, with a living area and two sofas that could be used as beds for the children. The furniture is a little old, especially the wood, but it was not a problem for us. The room was comfortable and practical. We also found a welcome plate of desserts, fruit, and soft drinks in the room, which was a very nice touch. The food was very good. The main Sun and Sand restaurants had a good variety, and everything felt clean and fresh. The staff were always smiling, helpful, and attentive, especially with the children. The à la carte restaurants were one of the highlights of our stay. There are Mexican, Italian, Kebab, Vino, and German options. Mr. Mohamed Sabry helped us arrange our dinner reservations during our four-night stay. The Kebab restaurant had very good grilled food, and our favorite was definitely the Italian restaurant. The steak was excellent, and the table service made it feel like dining in a proper restaurant. The snack options were also excellent. Places like the African and Tropical restaurants work more like proper restaurants, where you sit down, order from a menu, and the food is served to your table. There were also plenty of options for children throughout the day, including ice cream, waffles, pancakes, popcorn, juices, and snacks. Bottled water and drinks were always easy to find. The kids' aqua park was fantastic and one of the best we have experienced in a resort. There are many slides and pools, and our children loved it. Safety was taken seriously, with lifeguards present throughout the area. At one point I mentioned to a supervisor that one slide area was getting crowded, and he immediately added another lifeguard. I really appreciated the quick response. The resort also has many different pools, including a wave pool and a sandy beach-style pool area. The landscaping is beautiful, with plenty of greenery, palm trees, shaded areas, and attractive Islamic-inspired architecture. The beach was another major highlight. It is sandy, clean, beautiful, and directly accessible from the resort. There were plenty of sunbeds, so it never felt overcrowded. Snorkeling was also surprisingly good because you can see fish and marine life even in relatively shallow water without having to swim far out. But the number one thing that made this hotel special was definitely the staff. From reception to the restaurants, beach, aqua park, lifeguards, and pool teams, everyone was friendly, smiling, and genuinely trying to make guests happy. I have stayed at several very good resorts before, including Albatros hotels, so my expectations were already high. Grand Waterworld Makadi exceeded them, and personally I enjoyed this stay even more than Albatros Portofino. For families with young children, I highly recommend this hotel. Great staff, excellent aqua park, beautiful beach, very good food, plenty of snacks and drinks, spacious rooms, and a relaxing atmosphere. We had a wonderful four-night stay and would definitely consider coming back again. Special thanks again to Mr. Mohamed Sabry and all the staff who made our holiday so enjoyable.

There's not much to say, it's just that you get what you pay for. It's very comfortable and relaxing, you can enjoy it without even leaving the hotel. I'd like to stay here again.

I really liked the soft bedding at this hotel, and the room was quite clean, though it's a bit out of the way. You can't really see the sea view. The partition between the bathroom and the bed is a nice touch. However, the downside is that the entire hotel is incredibly massive, with thousands of rooms. Just getting to and from my room takes 6-7 minutes, and there's constant uphill and downhill walking. When I first arrived and wasn't familiar with the surroundings, I couldn't even find my room. It really cut into my plans for sightseeing.

Hisham was incredibly helpful and really made our stay feel like a 5-star experience. The rooms, pools, and beaches are lovely, but the people are what truly make this hotel special. Everything was clean and well maintained. The only small downside for me was that some of the food, especially the desserts, tasted a bit bland, but there are plenty of options to choose from. Overall, we had a great stay and would definitely come back.

Everything said about its location and closeness to public amenities is true. It's the best compromise you can get in Hurghada. The Marina is a stone's throw from the beach within the hotel. All water and outdoor sports activities can be booked straight from there. It's truly all inclusive and you'd probably get tired of eating and drinking. The rooms are tired and screaming for help. The furniture are weak and old and so are the electronic. The soap dispenser in our bathroom leaked all through, ants all over the bathroom and cockrach in the room. There's almost next to no Internet provided. Absolutely none in the room, so that advertisement is a big lie. The rooms require overhaul. All in all, you know better now before booking. I highly recommend this place still.

I had high expectations for Steigenberger Aqua Magic, but unfortunately my experience did not match the reputation of the hotel. The first disappointment started at check-in. I booked two rooms and sent a request in advance asking for adjacent rooms because we are one family traveling with children. The hotel is very large and consists of several buildings, so it is simply not reasonable for my children to stay in one building while I stay in another. At reception I was told that there were no rooms of the same category available in the same building. To solve the problem, I agreed to pay around €100 to upgrade the second room. However, even after paying for the upgrade, the rooms were still not next to each other. They were only on the same floor despite my repeated request. To make matters worse, I received the key to the first room after approximately 3:00 PM, while the second room was not ready until after 6:00 PM because housekeeping had not finished preparing it. Waiting several extra hours for a room after paying for an upgrade was very frustrating. Then, on the day of departure, shortly after 12:00 PM I received a call asking me to check out immediately. I found this difficult to understand. If the hotel expects guests to respect the official checkout time, then guests should also expect their rooms to be ready at the official check-in time. The standards should be the same for both sides. Another disappointing policy was the specialty restaurants. Although I booked an All-Inclusive package, I was only allowed to use one specialty restaurant because my stay was less than five nights. I do not think this is a fair policy. If a restaurant is fully booked, I completely understand, but if tables are available, all All-Inclusive guests should have the opportunity to dine there regardless of the length of their stay. Restricting access only because of the number of nights makes the All-Inclusive experience feel unnecessarily limited. I also felt there was a noticeable difference in how some guests were treated. I paid in foreign currency just like many international guests, yet I noticed that the building assigned to us was occupied mostly by Egyptian families and its overall condition was not maintained to the same standard, especially the unpleasant smell around the ground-floor bathrooms. Another incident happened at the swimming pool where my children were told that inflatable toys and floats were not allowed, and we immediately respected the rules. However, only a few minutes later we saw children of other nationalities using similar inflatables in the same pool without being stopped. This made me feel that the rules were not being applied equally to everyone. I also remember another situation at reception where a foreign guest requested to change rooms and was offered several alternatives. When I requested the same, the receptionist briefly searched and then told me that no rooms were available. Seeing another guest receive multiple options while I was told there was nothing available left me questioning why the same level of service was not offered to me. I am not saying this based on rumors; I am simply describing my own experience during my stay. I sincerely hope the hotel reviews whether its procedures and policies are being applied equally to all guests. Despite these issues, I would like to thank the restaurant staff, housekeeping staff, and cleaning team. They were always friendly, professional, and helpful, and I truly appreciated the way they treated us. The hotel itself has excellent facilities and great potential, but the inconsistent service at reception and the feeling that some guests receive better treatment than others had a significant impact on our holiday. I hope the management takes these comments seriously because equal treatment, fair policies, and better organization at check-in would greatly improve the guest experience for everyone.

泄湖景完全是來搞笑的，所謂泄湖就是個小水泡，陽臺中間還隔着一段距離和樹擋着，跟其他評論一樣，存在一定的歧視，但是大部份工作人員還是挺友善的，雖然這本來就是他們應該做的。中間想加錢升級海景，帶我們去看的也還是一個稍微大一點的水泡而已，工作人員告訴我這已經是最好的海景房了，最後並沒有升級，泳池開放時間特別晚關閉時間卻很早，如果要出海這家酒店完全沒必要，吃的甚至不如國內100塊錢人民幣的自助餐，基本都靠吃麪包吃飽的，我們拿行李小費給了一美金態度還可以，同行的另一對沒有零錢了給了10埃磅態度就很差，對於一家五星級酒店這種事不應該發生，還是建議加錢選擇更好的全包酒店，或者普通的全包，想省錢或者出海沒有時間在酒店那就市區選擇一家便宜的就好了，這邊出行也並不方便，最後，我們check out的時候工作人員態度非常好，忘記問他的名字了，當看到我們自己拿行李過來了一直在向我道歉，告訴我他們應該安排擺渡車過來接我們的，海邊和泳池邊工作人員也很好，太陽下山後我們想去游泳，海邊的工作人員告訴我太陽下山後海里很危險，並且開玩笑説會有鯊魚，泳池邊的工作人員很耐心的告訴我泳池關閉了，要消毒，會傷眼睛，總的來説，真的不值這個價

The hotel is clean and comfortable, and we had a lovely garden view which made the stay feel calm and relaxing. The environment is very peaceful and perfect for unwinding. The food selection offers a wide variety of choices. However, the taste was a bit below our expectations—possibly because we are not very used to the local flavors. That said, there were still options available for everyone. What we enjoyed the most was the beach. The long bridge walkway stretching out into the sea was beautiful and a highlight of our stay. Walking along it and being able to see fish and even turtles in the clear water was truly a special experience. Overall, it’s a great place to relax and enjoy nature, especially if you love the sea and a peaceful atmosphere.

Let’s start with that the team went above and beyond so that we have the best experience. We got a very clean and modern room but was on the ground floor. We asked for a room on a higher floor so they showed us different options but clarified that they weren’t renovated yet. The next day they moved us to a renovated room on a higher floor (the photos attached). The team’s response is quick. We had breadkfast and dinner included. The breakfast is a variety of cheese, turkey and chicked slices, baked goods, pancakes eggs, sausages, vegetables, fruits and drinks, etc. The dinner we had was mainly salads, rice, kufta (minced beef with spices, cooked potatoes, duck, baked goods, and deserts. Finally, the resort has access to the beach/sea, it is across the street though and a 10 min walk away.  Thanks for the team for making our experience and vacation as chill and relaxing as possible.
