I am writing this review to help those who cannot decide which hotel to choose. After digging through a lot of information, we collected such data)
A complex of four hotels with an almost almost common territory and a beach, but with a different concept. These are Grand Makadi 5 *, Makadi Palace 5 *, Makadi Spa 5 * +18 and Grand Waterworld Makadi Hotel 5 * (ex. Sunwing Waterworld) - (There is also, as it were, a separate Sunwing Family Star 5 * hotel - but in fact it is family rooms only from Waterworld Makadi).
Makadi Spa 5*+18 Considered perhaps the best of the four. For a very quiet relaxing holiday, even without animation! You can use the entire common beach of the four hotels. And bars on them. And you can also use the entire infrastructure of the Waterworld Makadi hotel.

Grand Waterworld Makadi Hotel 5 * - (included in the list of the best Makadi Bay hotels) - this is the most active of all these hotels. Great for families with children. Here is a good active animation. Cool children's and adult water parks and the best beach with the best sandy entry from the shore.
Grand Makadi 5 * - This hotel and the whole four will suit those who come for the underwater world. It is here at the end of the beach that there is a pier from which you immediately get to a good coral reef. New overall hotel for a relaxing holiday.
Makadi Palace 5* +18 - A little higher level than Grand Makadi, but in general, this is also a hotel only for a relaxing holiday and it does not have any special infrastructural advantages. The hotel has no animation at all, the concept of complete relaxation. The hotel does not accept children!
Hotels go one by one along the beaches. The total length of the beaches of four hotels is 1.5-2 km, and a promenade runs along the entire beach.
Grand Makadi 5* and Makadi Palace 5* have a shared beach. At the end of Grand Makadi Beach there is a pier with access to the reef. The beaches are not separated in any way except conditionally by one of the passages into the sea where dead corals also begin. The beach is very big. Long and wide. But there is no sandy water entry from the shore. A stone embankment and several narrow passages. There are also dead corals right off the shore. And shallow water. Both beaches are heavily trodden. It's not sand, but trodden earth. But there are a lot of equipment on the beach and few people, so in general you can relax very secluded. If you come with small children, then there is quite a bit of sand in the passages into the sea. And there, in the shallows, children can splash. But still, this is not a beach for swimming near the shore. And swimming shoes are a must!

Makadi Spa 5 - hotel beach. In fact, the beach and entry into the sea are exactly the same as in the Grand Makadi 5 * and Makadi Palace 5 hotels, otherwise the only difference is that there are free boars along with sunbeds. On the beach, umbrellas with sunbeds and wild boars are at a distance from each other than in neighboring hotels where they are much denser to each other. And this decent distance makes this beach more secluded. You can also use the beach and beach bar of the Grand Waterworld hotel and the beaches of two other neighboring hotels.
Grand Waterworld Makadi Hotel 5 * - this hotel has the best beach among the hotels of the entire complex. The sunset is gentle, sandy, but there are pebbles, although they do not interfere with swimming and corals are not needed. You need to walk to the depths, but the children are great here. There are also corals, but for a good reef it is better to go to the pier which is located in the Grand Makadi hotel. There is a lot of sand on the beach, unlike the beaches of the other three hotels in this complex.
I also want to give a couple of useful tips.
First. If you want to go on excursions, then purchase them from local travel companies. Buying from them is just as safe as buying from hotel guides, but it will cost significantly less.
The second tip concerns Egyptian cold-pressed oils. There are many different companies that produce oils, but often in pharmacies or shops they can slip something mediocre or even dilute the oils, so it’s better to buy them in stores that work directly from manufacturers’ factories, and here in the eliteargan store you can easily find oils on Instagram by the name, they’re just excellent and at very good prices. I recommend contacting them. There is delivery in Hurghada directly to the hotel, and also sent to the CIS.
I think this review will help determine the choice of hotel and my advice will help tourists!
