Cleopatra Luxury Resort Makadi Bay (Adults Only)

Very nice place with very good service

Everything is wonderful. Luxurious place!

Good for snorkeling due to Pier 23, nice pools, not too pushy staff.

It was our first time there.
We were warmly welcomed by the reception with cold drinks, and a light late dinner had been prepared to accommodate our late arrival.
The service was excellent, and the food was just as good.
There were activities from morning until night for all ages, including special programs tailored just for kids.
We had a magical time and truly hope to return next year.

We recently stayed at Cleopatra Luxury Makadi and had an absolutely lovely experience. This wasn’t our first visit – and it certainly won’t be the last. The resort is stunning, with plenty of beautiful green areas that make it feel peaceful and relaxing. Our room was clean, spacious, and very comfortable. The food at the main restaurant was excellent – fresh, tasty, and with a great variety every day. The beach is beautiful and has a nice snorkeling spot with clear water and colorful fish. The pool is also great – clean . Big thanks to Mr Emad at the reception, he welcomed us warmly and made our check-in experience smooth and quick. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable vacation!

Had a wonderful time at Cleopatra, the staff are very accommodating and make sure that everything is taken care of, the resort is absolutely stunning and very clean. Rooms are spacious and are cleaned daily. The food is amazing and has a large variety of dishes. The beach is clean and has beautiful clear water, great for snorkelling. We did not get ill eating any of the food at the hotel. Even after some mishaps on our part the staff were happy to help and did all they could to accommodate us. Can not fault this place at all we hope to return soon.

Fantastic Hotel on the beach!
We stayed here with my family a few months ago and really enjoyed it. Everything was perfect, the rooms, the food and specially the direct access to the beach.
Highly recommended would love to come back some day!

We stayed at the Cleopatra Luxury Beach Resort Makadi Bay from May 30 to June 8, 2025. We chose this hotel expecting a peaceful and comfortable Adults-Only 5-star luxury experience with good food, high service quality and a relaxing atmosphere. Some of these expectations were met – many, unfortunately, were not. First the positives: The resort enjoys a truly beautiful location directly on the bay. The beach is wide, the water crystal clear, and the grounds are spacious, green and well-maintained. There are multiple pools, a large spa with massage offerings, two main restaurants, several bars, and a dedicated Adults-Only section. Walking paths are wide, well-lit even at night, and accessible via ramps and elevators where needed – ideal for leisurely strolls during cooler morning or evening hours. A highlight of our trip was the “Extra Divers” dive center, which is professionally run, exceptionally well organised, and offers access to a spectacular house reef and top-tier dive sites nearby. Whether you’re a beginner or experienced diver, this facility is a real asset to the resort. Another strength is the staff. Without exception, the employees were courteous, warm, helpful and consistently trying their best to make guests feel welcome. From reception to housekeeping, from restaurant staff to beach bar – this team deserves real credit. The resort owes much of its atmosphere and service level to their commitment. Now to the critical points: Despite its branding as a “Luxury Resort”, the hotel does not live up to that standard in several key areas. Our room (Adults-Only section, 1210) was clearly in need of renovation. Fixtures were loose, the showerhead and taps showed heavy calcification, mirror fittings were unstable, and door seals were visibly worn. The air conditioning was loud even on its lowest setting, and the entrance door lacked sound insulation – we were regularly disturbed by noise from other guests or the dive center’s cylinder handling starting before 9:00 a.m. Furniture was visibly scuffed, the lamp shades dusty and slightly stained, the water kettle heavily worn with residue inside. Upon arrival, the water for brushing teeth was missing, the provided cup appeared used, and slippers were not available – although these were later supplied after we informed reception. The “Waterfront” Adults-Only restaurant disappointed in both atmosphere and food offering. Many indoor chairs were worn and cracked, and some outdoor seating was dirty or neglected. While there was plenty of food, the variety over time was limited. Several meat dishes repeated with little variation, and lighter options were rare. Although there were vegetarian and some vegan dishes, they were inconsistently labeled – in fact, labeling of food in general was often unclear or entirely absent. This is a serious issue for allergy sufferers. At the live cooking station, pans were only wiped down, not cleaned, between different types of dishes – even when seafood or shell
