Turkish hospitality and service in Egypt.

The hotel "Xanadu Makadi Bay" and its neighbor "Xanadu Club Makadi Bay" belong to a large chain of hotels "Xanadu", which are located both in Egypt (Makadi) and in Turkey (Belek, Bodrum).
It is no secret that the strong point in Makadi is the organization of food, which is very similar to Turkish hotels. Whether this is a plus, for me personally it is indisputable.

Having experience of vacationing in Turkey (Belek, Side, Kemer), in Egypt (Sharm, Hurghada, Makadi, Marsa Alam), I can say with all responsibility that in "Xanadu Makadi" you will definitely find something to eat, traveling with a child of any age.
It seems to me that a combination of factors has developed here - a wonderful sandy beach with a perfect sunset into the sea, the calm bay of Makadi Bay, good food, a variety of entertainment, etc.

If you are looking for a reef, then, of course, you need to clearly understand this and choose hotels in Sharm or Marsa Alam. If the priority is a full-fledged sandy beach, a gentle and sandy sunset into the sea, a windless bay, and an orientation towards children and family vacations, then Hurghada and Makadi.
There are many good things to write about the hotel "Xanadu Makadi Bay", but I will briefly write about the main thing - the pros and cons and leave a couple of photos. If you have any questions, please contact us.

*Pros of the hotel Xanadu Makadi Bay*:
- a beautiful sandy beach, a beautiful and gentle sunset into the sea;
- sufficient coastline, comfortable sun loungers and umbrellas;
- a variety of high-quality food for people of any age, preferences, including the availability of dietary, children's menus;
- delicious a la carte (I especially liked the Turkish);
- well-coordinated work of the reception and guest relations. It is especially worth noting the girls from the guest service department, who are really customer-oriented;
- a variety of sports and evening entertainment (evening shows, solo performances, aqua gymnastics, gymnastics in the pool, etc. , aerobics, a wonderful sports center with everything you need);
-excellent work of the mini-club and good conditions for children of different age groups;
- convenient and comfortable rooms with a fully stocked mini-bar, cosmetic set, bathrobes and slippers;
- constant transportation around the hotel;
- clean and open sea. There is no standing water.
- possibility of different forms of accommodation.

*Cons of Xanadu Makadi Bay*:
-presence of a large number of Russians;
-remoteness from Hurghada airport;
-desert outside the hotel area. You have to go for a full-fledged shopping trip;
- objectively high price for a family vacation. This is the main and significant minus for me;
-little greenery, that is, tall trees and bushes, because in fact "Xanadu Makadi Bay" was opened in 2022, and its brother "Xanadu Club" in 2025.
