We had a wonderful stay at Dana Beach Hotel in Hurghada and can truly recommend it. The hotel has an excellent location, close to the city center, yet it still offers a relaxing and peaceful atmosphere.
The food was absolutely amazing. The selection was very rich and varied, including fresh juices every day. We especially loved the Moroccan corner in the main restaurant, which was outstanding. The staff throughout the hotel were incredibly kind, helpful, and always willing to go the extra mile – they would truly do anything for their guests.
During the winter season, we really appreciated the heated swimming pool and whirlpool, which made our stay comfortable even in cooler weather. Our children enjoyed the option to rent family pedal bikes (for four people, as well as smaller ones with a canopy) and they were also excited about the boat ride from the main building to the beach, which was a lovely and fun experience.
The entire resort was spotlessly clean and very well maintained. We always enjoy returning to the Pickalbatros hotel chain, as it is truly difficult to find such a high and consistent standard elsewhere.
A special thank you to the Front Office Manager for the professional and welcoming approach. We would be more than happy to return to Dana Beach again.

To be honest, we didn't expect much from the hotel or the vacation itself: we just wanted to get away from snowy Moscow and get some warmth. We also thought Hurghada wouldn't be warm enough for swimming or walking in shorts.
But in reality, everything was wonderful: we swam in the sea, although it wasn't the warmest. The wind didn't bother us much.
As for the hotel itself:
the hotel grounds, the beach, and the sea itself (in terms of depth) are all excellent. No complaints: it's pleasant to lie on the beach, and it's pleasant to walk around the grounds (or even ride a bike).
The kitchen is also fine.
The only two drawbacks (not critical, but nonetheless):
1. The rooms and amenities seem to need some renovation (lots of cracks and the furniture isn't the freshest).
2. The variety of soft drinks is lacking (and there's a surprisingly limited supply of natural lemonades).
We'd love to visit the hotel again!

An unforgettable experience at Pickalbatros Dana Beach!
I had an amazing stay at Pickalbatros Dana Beach Resort — everything was beyond expectations! The place is incredibly clean, beautifully maintained, and full of life. The staff are always smiling, friendly, and truly professional.
A very special thank you to Mr. Malak Magdy, who made our vacation extra special. His professionalism, kindness, and attention to detail were absolutely outstanding. He truly goes above and beyond to make every guest feel welcome and cared for — a real asset to the resort!
If you’re looking for a place that combines luxury, comfort, and genuine hospitality — this is definitely the place to be. Highly recommended! 🌴✨

A very nice hotel, located right by the beach. Everyone can find something for themselves here. There are swimming pools, a beach, and a pier from which you can go down and swim in the sea. There are many attractions, including boats that travel between the restaurants and the beach – which is great.
The rooms and their amenities are very nice, and they are cleaned daily – excellent. There are also several restaurants, and this is where I’d like to pause for a moment. The interior of the restaurants where breakfast, lunch, and dinner are served feels more like city cafeterias. The food is boring, repetitive, and the same regardless of the day of the week. For fans of chicken, fries, and pizza, it will be fine. However, I expected something more from a five-star hotel.
One more thing that really irritated me: it was hard to enjoy a proper meal because the waiters would clear the plates before we had even finished – quite annoying.
Overall, I recommend it, but…

Overall, Dana Beach Resort left a very positive impression, with some important points to mention.
The beach staff and trainers deserve the highest praise – they were extremely friendly, attentive, professional, and always created a great atmosphere. Their positive energy truly made our time at the beach enjoyable.
The room was very good: clean, comfortable, and well maintained. The air-conditioning system worked perfectly, which is extremely important in such a hot climate.
Unfortunately, I experienced food poisoning during my stay. Even having insurance, I was informed that medical assistance required either contacting the agency or paying around 150 EUR upfront, which can be stressful in such a situation.
That said, I would like to give special thanks to the hotel management and team for how they handled this issue. They reacted quickly, took full responsibility for the situation, covered all related expenses, and made a genuine effort to compensate for the inconvenience. I was offered complimentary massages and a seafood dinner, which clearly showed their commitment to guest satisfaction and helped restore trust.
Thanks to this professional response, the situation was resolved in a very respectful way. However, I do believe that more attention and consistency are needed in food preparation and quality control to prevent such incidents in the future.
In summary, Dana Beach has many strong points, especially its staff and facilities. With more care taken in food quality, this resort could easily offer an even better and safer experience for its guests.
