This was our first all inclusive holiday - and with two young children (8 and 5) it took the brainwork out of a holiday. Weather was fantastic - hot but not unbearable, pools clean and empty, food plentiful, varied (no upset stomachs) and a brilliant reef for snorkelling. Once we got our heads around the fact we weren't going anywhere... more

The Makadi Palace Hotel is situated around 25 miles from Herghada airport and offords excellent facilities - the rooms are very large well furnished but , beware ! - extensive building works are continuing around the North and eastern perimeters and these works cause a noise nuisance to a number of the rooms within the 'sub hotel' - called the... more

Arrived at the makadi palace at around 22.30 very impressive approaching the hotel and also inside, a very fast check in and then the bell boy will take you to your room, we were given a ground floor room facing gardens, there was a smell in the bathroom so went to reception desk and asked for another room preferably with... more

We, a norwegian merried couple in our fourties, spent 11 days at Makadi Palace (5-15 Oct 2009). The hotel is excellent in all ways! The hotel area is huge and wonderfule. Several pools, several restaurants with great food (caribbean/libanese/thai/ gourmet/buffet), some shops and several pathways. Plants and flowers. In the evenings the thousends of lights gave the hotel area a... more

My partner and I are paranoid about going to a hotel with negative reviews. Take little notice of the few on this site. The hotel is elegant, sophisticated, clean, tidy, big and beautiful. I probably wouldn't rate it 5 star, more like 4 star+ (to maintain a 5 star rating in such a large resort/complex is very difficult and they... more

We just returned from a week in the Makadi Palace where we had a very enjoyable stay. We booked the holiday quite late (about two weeks before we left) so got a good deal. It was our first trip to the Red Sea and I have to admit I had reservations about going to an all-inclusive destination as our only... more

Well, what can I say about this hotel. Where do I start? We booked for 1 week for the end of September because the reviews on this site were good. At the airport we were greeted by Red Sea Holiday Reps who directed us to the coach. We travelled for about half an hour mainly through desert and even through... more

We were fortunate enough to choose this hotel for our honeymoon in September and the only complaint I have about the whole holiday is that I wish I'd booked it for two weeks as there was so much choice at the hotel we struggled to get around everything in a week! I had been told how good the all inclusive... more
