Steigenberger Aqua Magic is a water-park hotel in Hurghada, for families whose week will be measured in slides and lazy-river laps rather than beach days. It is about 10 minutes from the airport, with 703 rooms, nine pools, a water park with a lazy river, five restaurants and seven bars, and clubs for small children and teenagers. The beach is reached through a sister hotel or the promenade, which tells you where the priority lies.
Guests praise the water park, the slides and the lazy river, the family suites and the children's and teens' programming, and the staff and entertainment. The complaints are that private beach access involves the neighbouring hotel or the promenade rather than a walk from the room, and that a la carte dining is limited by the stay rules. The thing people wish they had known is that the a la carte restaurants are rationed to three meals per stay under the booking terms, so the buffet carries most of the week.
The plan covers the buffet meals and snacks, selected drinks and non-alcoholic minibar items, the kids' and teens' clubs and Wi-Fi; a la carte dining beyond the three-meal limit, spa treatments, babysitting and the airport transfer are extra, and premium alcohol is limited. The Family Junior Suite at 68 square metres and the two-bedroom Family Suite are the categories built for the audience. Couples, and anyone whose holiday is a beach, should look further down the Red Sea coast.
