Hurghada Apartment Makadi Lagon & Swimming Pools Free

Hotel Description

Look, I’ll be honest – when I first saw the name “Hurghada Apartment Makadi Lagon & Swimming Pools Free,” I thought it was going to be one of those places where the description is way better than reality. But you know what? This little 3-star spot actually surprised me in the best way possible.

The thing about staying here is that you’re getting way more bang for your buck than you’d expect in Hurghada. I mean, most people blow their entire budget on those massive resort complexes, but this place gives you multiple swimming pools (and yeah, they’re actually free to use – not some weird upcharge situation) without the insane crowds. The apartment setup is honestly perfect if you’re traveling with family or just want some space to spread out. There’s something really nice about having a proper kitchen where you can make breakfast instead of fighting for a table at some buffet at 7 AM. The pools area gets this gorgeous afternoon light around 4 PM – I spent way too many hours just floating around there.

What really sold me on this place though is how it sits in relation to everything else. You’re close enough to the main Hurghada action that you can easily grab a taxi or even walk to the good restaurants (there’s this amazing seafood place about 10 minutes away that the front desk guy told me about), but far enough out that you’re not dealing with constant traffic noise or tourists stumbling around at midnight. The Red Sea is right there – like, actually right there, not “convenient beach access” marketing speak. I could hear the waves from my balcony, which was unexpectedly soothing after spending days in Cairo dealing with city chaos. Check-in was surprisingly smooth too, though I’d recommend arriving in the afternoon rather than super early since they seem to be a smaller operation. The staff speaks decent English and actually seems to care about making sure you’re comfortable, which honestly isn’t always a given at this price point. Sure, it’s not going to win any design awards, but everything works, it’s clean, and there’s AC that actually cools the place down – trust me, in Egyptian heat, that matters more than fancy marble countertops.
