TUI BLUE Makadi, Adults-only resort in Makadi Bay, Egypt
TUI BLUE Makadi is a low-rise adults-only resort set right by a private sandy beach in Makadi Bay, Egypt. The property has 168 rooms spread across two floors, two outdoor pools, and direct access to an offshore coral reef that lies just offshore from the shoreline.
TUI BLUE Makadi belongs to the broader Makadi Bay resort area along the Red Sea coast, which grew mainly after the late 20th century to serve international beach tourism. The hotel later became part of the TUI BLUE portfolio, shifting toward an adults-only format with a minimum guest age of 16.
The all-inclusive bracelet shapes the daily rhythm here, with meals and drinks shared in open-air dining areas that fill up gradually from late morning onward. Around the main pool, the pace stays unhurried, and the mixology course offered as part of the programme gives guests a hands-on way to join a common activity without any pressure.
Pack reef shoes and light, modest clothing for moving between the beach and the pool areas. The whole property is flat and compact, so most guests walk everywhere, while the nearest shops and a supermarket are an easy stroll from the front gate.
Diving courses here come with an unexpected rule: nobody may dive within 24 hours before a flight, so the end of a stay can feel noticeably different from its early days. Another detail many guests miss is that the outdoor parking is free and unguarded, while video surveillance covers the area.
