Cleopatra Luxury Resort Makadi Bay (Adults Only)

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.

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

Excellent hote.Fantastic staff. The room was very spacious and clean.Amazing balcony. Beautiful beds and linen n pillows very good quality All staff very good . Facilities Excellent. Good choice of food and the Italian is outstanding. Food and beverage manager Wagih sedky was really excellent went above and beyond all staff really attentive. I have already booked today to come back in a few months I have enjoyed it so much.See you soon! Felt safe.

We used the services of the photographer, very professional and friendly. The whole team is lovely. We had an hour family photoshoot and it came out excellent. It’s best to do an evening session before and during sunset for best lighting. Also when it’s not too hot.

Amazing holiday! Really nice rooms and pools area, felt really welcomed by all the staff and animation team was incredible can’t thank them enough for keeping us entertained and great company! They made the holiday, definitely will be back again!

IT was our first stay in Egypt, nice hotel resort, good quisine, pleasant people, good choice for trips to nearby Hurghada or Luxor,great services. Rooms were always clean, overall a very pleasant experience, I Will definitely recommend it. We Are happy to return to this hotel resort.

2nd time at the hotel. Amenities fabulous, animation team are great informative, attentive. The staff are amazing couldn’t do enough for you. Room was big and comfortable and our request for pool side room was sorted. Spa amazing the massages are definitely recommended. Only thing for us were we were the only couple from UK the hotel is predominantly German which is no problem but the music, entertainment was all in German including music in disco so for anyone else it was a little isolating. The hotel is stunning right next to the beach great location.
