Hiya,

Hotel discussions HERE

Thanks Mrs Mac! Caro

Makadi Bay is fabulous for snorkelling. The house reefs are amazing. I had a great time that's why I now live and work here in Hurghada.

Ncie one Sensema!

We have just returned from a fantastic 2 week holiday at the Makadi Palace. Anyone who is going in the near future is very lucky and need not worry about any building work... Although there is some going on , it does not interfere with the holiday at all.
From the Pool boys, Waiters, Bell Boys and all the staff, the service received is of the highest quality.
The pools around the palace are huge and kept along with the surroundings immacuately clean.
All the restaurants are 5*, especially enjoyed the "Oriental, Italian and The Dome".. could not fault the food at all and always found there to be something different every night.
i have plenty of pictures if anyone needs re-assuring

Can anyone please give me any information on the hotel Sol y Mar in Makadi Bay, have looked at the hotel reviews an cannot find anything listed, also is it ok for snorkelling around that area please.

Thanks in anticipation. Powdie

Hi there - we're off to Makadi Bay on 3rd February (just 2 weeks to go...) and were wondering if anyone can give us some advice re a few things. We're staying at Le Meridien, Makadi Bay and have seen some mixed reviews of it so we're a bit concerned. Also what will the weather be like and what temperature will the sea be? Is it good for snorkelling. Can anyone recommend any trips etc that would be good. There's just the 2 of us going so we're fairly flexible.

Any advice would be much appreciated. Thanks a lot

The main restaurant at the Le Meridien can be a bit of a cattle market. You will have choice of sitting inside or sitting outside beside the lazy river. Either way, for the first couple of days watch when the Russians go to eat and choose another time!

Upstairs there is a fantastic restaurant where you meals are cooked to order. I think it is roughly 3 Euro extra per person, but well worth it.

Their A La Carte Restaurant - well! By day it is the swim up pool bar. They also have an Italian on the premises which isn't bad. There are also two beach bars where you get lunch.

The snorkelling is fantastic - the fish amazing, but again, watch out for certain nationalities who insist on feeding the fish with bread.

There are any number of excursions you can choose to go on. Inside the hotel you will find many outlets who will give you info.

Don't expect fast service though in any of the restaurants/bars.

Has anyone stayed here? We are staying at the Sol Y Mar Makadi Marine Hotel. We have found it difficult to get reviews etc about this part of Egypt, so I thought I would enquire on here if anybody has been and can fill me in on how nice the hotel is, and what there is to do in the surrounding area, snorkelling obviously but other than that?
Thanks in advance

Has anyone been to the Makadi Palace makadi bay, if anyone has been recently could you let me know what is happening with the split between the palace and the grand hotel. I have been hearing different reports, some say the palace can use the facilities of the grand makadi but the grand can't use the palace unless they pay a certain amount every day. If anyone has any information please let me know.

Couple of pages of info here

Hi there,

THanks for the website but our hotel didnt feature on it. We are staying at the Makadi Palace.

Have you been to Makadi Bay or Hurghada?

There is a thread for this Hotel with lots of information.
It's under Grand makadi and Makadi Palace Hugarda.
Hope that helps
