Hurghada EGYPT Hurghada is a gorgeous city found along the beautiful coastline of the Red Sea. Known for opulent resorts offering all-inclusive packages at great value, it’s an ideal beach holiday destination. Relax along the white, sandy beaches, soak up the sun or take a dip in the clear blue sea. If you want to see what’s beneath the surface then there are plenty of opportunities to go snorkelling and diving. If you prefer to remain on land, the desert is in the immediate area of the resorts. You can explore the rolling sands and oases either on the back of a camel or quad-bike, depending on how fast you’d like to go. Though there are diving opportunities available from the hotel, the well-renowned Chloe’s Diving Centre is just a matter of minutes away, where you can book an unforgettable ocean adventure further afield. For a change of pace, the old city of El Dahar is found just a 24 minutes’ drive away. Here, you can experience a place steeped in history with traditional Egyptian bazaars and quaint cafés and restaurants aplenty.
Labranda Royal Makadi Discover the splendours of Hurghada and the Red Sea from the magnificent Labranda Royal Makadi. With its own private beach on Egypt’s golden coastline and a wide range of facilities and activities, this 5-star resort serves up everything you’ll need for an unforgettable holiday. When you’re not busy splashing about in the sea, windsurfing, snorkelling or soaking up the sun, you can explore the rest of the grounds. The resort is nestled around a large outdoor pool, a dedicated kid’s pool and a Jacuzzi, where guests of all ages can unwind under the shade of the surrounding palm trees. For those seeking further relaxation, there’s a wide
range of treatments available in the wellness centre, including a sauna, a steam room and various massages. Go for a workout in the fully-equipped gym, or try out such sports as squash, tennis, archery and billiards. Children can join the kids’ club for even more activities. In between trying these many things, you can take advantage of your ultra all-inclusive board basis to dine to your heart’s (and stomach’s) content. Try hearty Italian cuisine at the Il Rondo Restaurante, Mediterranean seafood dishes at the Trattoria Il Mar Rosso, Greek food at the Taverna Paros, or even Cuban treats at the Pequena Habana.
