What Families Say About Pickalbatros Aqua Blu Resort – 4.7 Stars from 7,591 Reviews

With a 4.7-star rating drawn from 7,591 verified guest reviews, the Pickalbatros Aqua Blu Resort ranks among the most highly regarded family all inclusive resorts in the Hurghada area. Families consistently praise the quality and variety of the all inclusive food offering, noting that even fussy young eaters are well catered for across the buffet and à la carte options. The aqua park and children's pool areas receive particular acclaim, with parents highlighting how the dedicated facilities keep children happily occupied throughout the day without requiring constant adult supervision.

Reviewers travelling during the winter months frequently comment on the exceptional weather, with many noting that arriving from cold, wet northern Europe and stepping into warm Hurghada sunshine made the entire holiday feel transformative. The beach quality and Red Sea access are consistently mentioned as highlights, with families enjoying calm waters suitable for young swimmers and beginner snorkellers. Staff friendliness and responsiveness to family needs — including high chairs, early dining options and cot arrangements — feature prominently in positive reviews. The resort's location on Safaga Road and its manageable distance from Hurghada International Airport also earn repeated praise from families who appreciate minimising travel time after long flights with tired children.

Pickalbatros Aqua Blu Resort Location – Safaga Road, Hurghada, Red Sea

The Pickalbatros Aqua Blu Resort is situated on Safaga Road, Hurghada — one of the Egyptian Red Sea coast's most established and family-friendly resort corridors. Safaga Road runs south from central Hurghada along the coastline, providing direct Red Sea beachfront positioning with the calm, warm waters and sheltered bays that make this stretch of coast particularly well-suited to family holidays.

The resort's location places it within practical reach of Hurghada International Airport, meaning families with young children avoid excessively long transfer journeys after arrival — a significant practical advantage over resorts positioned further down the coast. The surrounding area offers easy access to Hurghada's marina district, local markets and a range of family-friendly excursion operators offering desert safaris, glass-bottom boat trips, snorkelling tours and day trips to Luxor and the Valley of the Kings for families seeking cultural experiences alongside beach relaxation.

Getting to Pickalbatros Aqua Blu Resort from Hurghada International Airport

Hurghada International Airport (HRG) serves the resort directly, with a road transfer along the main coastal highway to Safaga Road. The journey is straightforward and manageable for families travelling with luggage, pushchairs and young children. Transfer times vary depending on traffic and your specific departure point within the airport, but the route is well-established and used by thousands of resort-bound families every year.

Multiple transfer options are available to suit different family preferences and budgets. Pre-booked private airport transfers are the most convenient option for families, offering a direct door-to-door service from the airport arrivals hall to the resort entrance without shared stops — particularly recommended for families travelling with infants, toddlers or significant amounts of luggage. Shared shuttle services offer a more economical alternative, collecting multiple guests from the same terminal and dropping at resorts along the Safaga Road corridor. Licensed taxis are available at the airport, though agreeing a fare in advance is advisable. Many tour operators and package holiday providers include airport transfers as part of their all inclusive arrangements. Madyen.com can provide guidance on transfer options when you complete your booking.

Family Attractions and Activities Near Pickalbatros Aqua Blu Resort, Hurghada

  • Red Sea Snorkelling and Coral Reefs: The resort's direct beach access opens onto some of the Red Sea's most accessible coral reef systems, with colourful marine life visible in shallow water — perfect for children experiencing their first snorkelling adventure.
  • Hurghada Marina: A short drive from the resort, the marina offers glass-bottom boat trips, dolphin watching excursions and a range of waterfront restaurants and cafés for family evenings out.
  • Desert Safari Experiences: Quad biking, camel riding and Bedouin camp dinners in the Eastern Desert are popular family excursions bookable locally, offering a dramatic contrast to beach days and a genuine taste of Egyptian desert culture.
  • Makadi Water World: One of the largest water parks in the Hurghada region, offering a full day of slides, wave pools and family attractions suitable for children of all ages — a popular excursion from Safaga Road resorts.
  • Hurghada Grand Aquarium: An indoor aquarium showcasing Red Sea marine life, ideal for a quieter family activity day or as an educational complement to snorkelling experiences.
  • Luxor Day Trip: For families interested in ancient Egyptian history, guided day trips to Luxor — including the Valley of the Kings, Karnak Temple and the Colossi of Memnon — depart regularly from Hurghada and offer an unforgettable cultural experience.
  • Sindbad Submarine: A real submarine excursion operating from Hurghada that takes families beneath the Red Sea surface to observe coral and marine life without getting wet — a unique and memorable experience for children.

Best Time to Visit – Winter Sun Season at Pickalbatros Aqua Blu Resort, Hurghada

Hurghada's winter sun season runs from October through to April, and for UK and northern European families this period represents the single most compelling reason to choose the Red Sea over competing destinations. While temperatures at home drop into single figures and rain becomes a near-daily occurrence, Hurghada maintains daytime temperatures of 22–28°C throughout the winter months, with blue skies, low humidity and virtually no rainfall.

November, December, January and February are particularly popular with families seeking a genuine warm-weather escape during school half-terms, Christmas holidays and February breaks. The sea temperature remains swimmable — typically 22–24°C in midwinter — meaning children can enjoy the beach and pools comfortably throughout the stay. March and April see temperatures beginning to climb toward 28–30°C, making these months ideal for families who prefer slightly warmer conditions and who want to avoid the intense summer heat of July and August when temperatures regularly exceed 38°C.

The Christmas and New Year period is exceptionally popular with families at the Pickalbatros Aqua Blu Resort, with the all inclusive format making festive celebrations abroad both affordable and stress-free. Booking well in advance via Madyen.com — using the £20 deposit option to secure your dates early — is strongly recommended for winter peak periods, as family room availability fills quickly during school holiday windows.
