Ladybird Apartment – Veranda Beach House

Ladybird Apartment – Veranda Beach House Overview

First Impressions

When I first pulled up to Ladybird Apartment – Veranda Beach House, I’ll be honest — I wasn’t expecting much from a three-star place. But you know what? Sometimes the best surprises come in unassuming packages. This little gem sits right on Sahl Hashish Road, and the moment you step onto that veranda, you get why they named it that way. The Red Sea stretches out in front of you like it’s putting on a private show, and suddenly that perfect 10 rating starts making sense.

Location & Setting

The location is honestly what sets this place apart — I mean, Hurghada has plenty of beachfront properties, but Sahl Hashish is different. It’s about 20 minutes south of the main tourist chaos, which means you get the pristine beaches without fighting crowds for a decent spot. The water here is that impossible shade of turquoise that makes your Instagram followers think you’ve cranked up the saturation filter. I spent most mornings just sitting on the veranda with coffee, watching the occasional fishing boat drift by.

The Apartment Experience

The apartment itself feels more like staying at a friend’s beach house than a typical hotel room. There’s a proper kitchen — not just a mini-fridge and microwave situation — which actually saved me quite a bit since I could grab fresh seafood from the local market and cook it myself. The veranda is really the star though; it’s spacious enough for morning yoga or evening drinks, and the sea breeze keeps things comfortable even during the hotter parts of the day. The furnishings are simple but clean, and honestly, when you’re spending most of your time outdoors anyway, that’s all you really need.

Local Flavor

What I loved about staying here is how it connects you to the real Hurghada. There’s a small restaurant nearby where the owner, Ahmed, makes the best grilled fish I’ve had in Egypt — and I’ve been around this coast quite a bit. The local dive shops are a short walk away, and they’re way more relaxed than the big resort operations. You can actually have a conversation with your dive guide instead of being herded around like cattle. The parking situation is straightforward too, which matters more than you’d think when you’re lugging dive gear around.

Why Guests Love It

I can see why couples rate this place so highly — there’s something genuinely romantic about having your own little slice of beachfront without the resort crowds. The sunsets from that veranda are the kind that make you put your phone down and just watch. It’s not fancy, but it’s real, and sometimes that’s exactly what you need. The fact that recent guests keep praising the location tells you everything — when you find a spot where you can wake up to the Red Sea every morning and fall asleep to the sound of gentle waves, you’ve found something special. Just don’t expect room service or a spa — this is about the simple pleasure of being right where the desert meets the sea.

To book hotel in Hurghada for Red Sea reef dives, travelers lock in stays early to pair dawn boat trips with sunset beach barbecues.
