What's the typical apartment like?
Hotel-grade compound apartments inside named developments (Azzurra Sahl Hasheesh, The View, Citystars, Sunny Lakes). Typically 60–140 sqm for apartments, 200–400 sqm for villas. Fully furnished, with compound pools, gyms, private beach access and 24/7 security included in the rent.
How far is the beach?
Inside the compound: 2–10 minutes' walk to a private beach included with the unit. The Sahl Hasheesh bay is shallow, family-friendly and considered the best swimming in the Hurghada area.
What's the trade-off versus central Hurghada?
