Buying vs. Renting in Hurghada Which One Is Right for You?

Makadi Bay: A Plain Guide to This Red Sea Resort Area

Makadi Bay is a resort area further south along the Red Sea coast, beyond Sahl Hasheesh. Like the other resort communities outside the city, it offers a different rhythm from central Hurghada.

What to expect

A resort setting on the coast, away from the city centre. Facilities are usually concentrated in and around the resorts, so it can feel quiet outside the busy holiday periods.

Who it suits

People who want a resort stay by the sea and do not need city services daily.

What to check before choosing it

Ask about the drive to the airport, the nearest supermarket and medical care, and how the community is managed. Ask what is included in service charges and whether the resort is busy all year or mainly in the peak season.

Central Hurghada as an alternative

If you want shops, banks and schools close by, look at central districts. See our districts guide.

How Abtal helps you find the right information

We are a construction and development company. We own the land, develop and build our projects, and sell directly to you, so the person you speak with can answer about the building itself. Before you visit, we can search out the facts that matter to you, such as the drive time to the beach or the airport, what the building includes and what is available today. If we do not know something, we say so and check it, instead of guessing.

When you visit, we walk you through the project and its surroundings, so you see the area rather than a brochure. After the sale, our customer service team stays your point of contact. Start from our contact page and tell us what you are looking for.

Talk to the people who build

We are a construction and development company, so you can ask us about our own projects directly. Tell us what matters to you, such as budget, the distance to the beach or airport, or whether you want to live there or visit, and we will point you to the right person. You can reach us from our contact page, or see all Abtal projects.
