If your idea of a fantastic vacation means being by the water, make tracks to Giftun Islands. No matter what you choose to do here, you're unlikely to get bored of those pretty views.

Giftun Islands is a worthwhile place kick off your day in Hurghada. This water-surrounded land mass comes recommended by fellow travelers, but it isn't the only thing to do here. Allow time for other attractions like Mahmya, Hurghada City Center, and Marina Hurghada to really enjoy what's on offer in the area.

"They charge for beach towels. Shower water pressure was weak. The room was very noisy from the outdoor noise. It wa as if the windows did not exist or opened when they were closed. Check in time was not as promised. The bed was extremely uncomfortable!! Felt every spring while you slept."

"Overall, we enjoyed our stay—the hotel was nice and the staff were great. However, the internet was unreliable and the beach mats could use a good clean. Still, it was a relaxing trip and we’d consider coming back."
