You arrive in Hurghada, this former fishing village transformed into a world-class beach resort. The Red Sea awaits you, crystalline and generous. The Xanadu Makadi Bay stands facing these legendary waters, just 50 meters from Tia Heights Makadi Bay beach. Here, 815 rooms welcome you with simplicity and comfort, individually controlled air conditioning, balcony or terrace with garden or sea views. It is the ideal starting point to explore the region's finest diving sites or simply sink into a lounger, glass in hand, on an all-inclusive basis.

Arrival

You pass through the doors of the Xanadu with your luggage. Reception operates 24 hours a day, which facilitates late arrivals and early departures. The property features a private parking lot and elevators to access upper floors. Rooms, ranging from 35 to 45 m², are distributed in three categories: garden view, sea view, or lateral sea view. Each benefits from individually adjustable air conditioning, WiFi connection, flat-screen television with satellite channels, minibar, and safe. The bathroom offers shower, bathrobes, slippers, and hair dryer. Comfort is present without unnecessary frills. Some rooms are adapted for people with reduced mobility, upon prior request.

Dining, all included

The all-inclusive formula offers you breakfast, lunch, and dinner served buffet-style at the Dolce Vita restaurant. The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly, far from formal rigidity. For refreshments, two meeting points: the Agora Bar serves local and imported beverages in a romantic setting, with live music on certain evenings, while the beach bar offers the same drinks facing the horizon. Alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages are included in your all-inclusive package. The establishment thus covers all your meals throughout your stay. We invite you to verify the precise details of the all-inclusive offer directly with JustRelax, as inclusions may vary depending on the period and type of room booked.

Days by the water

You walk down the steps leading to the sandy and pebbled beach, 50 meters from your room. Sunbeds and parasols await you there. You can also join the seasonal pool, equally equipped with loungers and umbrellas. An amphitheater hosts international daytime animations, creating a playful atmosphere for families. The hotel has a kids club and a teen club for younger guests, allowing parents to enjoy quiet moments. For teenagers aged 13 to 16, a dedicated space offers PlayStation, Nintendo consoles, and basketball and football courts. Snorkeling and diving are accessible locally, with a diving center available on-site. A nearby water park offers slides accessible at an additional fee (10am-12pm and 2pm-4pm). The Red Sea is at your doorstep, its seabeds among the most beautiful in the world.

Evening vibes

The sun slips behind the desert mountains. The Agora Bar comes alive, live music rises on certain evenings, glasses clink together. International animations continue in the evening, creating a festive atmosphere without being invasive. If you seek more nightlife, Hurghada's city center with its nightclubs, bars, and restaurants is nearby. Ancient souks and traditional Egyptian cafes await curious explorers. You can also stay at the beach bar, listen to the waves, savor that feeling of escape that the Red Sea provides at night.

Who is it for?

The Xanadu Makadi Bay suits couples seeking beach relaxation and diving, families with children who appreciate clubs and pools, and groups of friends craving entertainment. Seniors will find a comfortable pace here, far from overactivity. Divers in particular will be delighted, as Hurghada is one of the world's diving capitals. Direct beach access, the pool, and the all-inclusive formula reduce the need to venture out if you prefer to remain at the resort's heart. Families will appreciate the kids' clubs and proximity to Hurghada Aquarium, 17 km away.
