Room rates at Serenity Alma Heights vary depending on your chosen dates, room type, and board basis. Winter months – particularly November, December, January, and February – often represent excellent value on the Red Sea, as this is the shoulder or off-peak period for many European travellers despite the weather remaining warm and sunny. Families travelling during UK school half-terms or the Christmas and New Year period should book early, as these dates see higher demand and limited availability at this well-reviewed property.
All-inclusive board options are typically available and are strongly recommended for families, as they simplify budgeting and ensure children are well-fed throughout the day without additional per-meal costs. Room configurations suitable for families – including rooms with extra beds or interconnecting options – should be confirmed at the time of booking. Through Madyen.com, you can save up to 15% on published rates, secure your booking with just a £20 deposit, and benefit from flexible payment terms that make the total cost manageable.

With a 4.5-star rating drawn from over 5,154 guest reviews, Serenity Alma Heights has built a strong and consistent reputation among families visiting the Hurghada and Makadi Bay area. Recurring themes across reviews include praise for the quality and variety of food in the all-inclusive restaurants, the cleanliness and upkeep of the pools, and the friendliness and attentiveness of the hotel staff – all factors that matter enormously when travelling with children.
Families with younger children frequently highlight the safe and well-maintained kids' pool areas and the organised children's entertainment, while parents note that the hotel's layout and facilities make it easy to keep the whole family entertained without needing to leave the resort every day. The hotel's proximity to Makadi Bay's broader entertainment offer – including waterpark access – is also mentioned positively by guests who want to combine resort relaxation with active family days out. The volume and consistency of positive reviews across thousands of stays gives genuine confidence that Serenity Alma Heights delivers reliably for family groups, which is exactly what you need when booking a winter break with children.
Serenity Alma Heights is located on Safaga Road, the main coastal artery that runs south from central Hurghada towards Makadi Bay and Safaga. This positioning is particularly advantageous for families targeting the Makadi Bay area, as it places the hotel within the southern resort corridor where the coastline is quieter, cleaner, and better suited to family beach holidays than the more commercialised northern stretches of Hurghada.
Makadi Bay Beach itself is one of the Red Sea Riviera's most family-friendly stretches of coastline, known for its calm, clear water, shallow entry points, and excellent snorkelling even for beginners and children. The bay sits just a short drive from Serenity Alma Heights, making beach days straightforward to organise. Makadi Water World, the large waterpark and family entertainment complex that is one of the primary draws for families visiting this part of Hurghada, is similarly accessible from the hotel's Safaga Road location.
The broader Hurghada resort area – including its marina, shopping centres, and restaurant strip – is reachable to the north, giving families the option of town excursions when they want a change of scene from the resort environment.
Hurghada International Airport (HRG) is the primary arrival point for families flying to this part of the Red Sea coast, and it is well served by direct charter and scheduled flights from the UK and across Europe throughout the winter season. The airport sits to the north of the main Hurghada resort strip, and transfer times to Serenity Alma Heights on Safaga Road will typically range from approximately 30 to 50 minutes depending on traffic and the precise location of the hotel within the Safaga Road corridor.
Pre-booked private airport transfers are strongly recommended for families, particularly those arriving late at night or travelling with young children and significant luggage. Private transfers eliminate the uncertainty of shared shuttle timings and ensure you arrive at the hotel directly without detours. Many UK tour operators and transfer specialists offer competitive rates for the Hurghada Airport to Safaga Road route. Taxis are available at the airport but should be agreed at a fixed price before departure. Once at the hotel, local taxis and resort shuttles provide onward access to Makadi Bay Beach and Makadi Water World, with the hotel's own excursion desk typically able to assist with organised day trips and transport bookings.
The area around Serenity Alma Heights and Makadi Bay is one of the most entertainment-rich stretches of the Egyptian Red Sea coast for families, offering a combination of natural attractions and purpose-built family leisure facilities:
The Egyptian Red Sea coast around Hurghada and Makadi Bay is one of very few destinations that genuinely delivers warm, reliable sunshine throughout the European and UK winter months, making it a standout choice for families seeking a warm weather break when temperatures at home are cold, grey, and wet.
November through February represents the core winter season on the Red Sea Riviera. During this period, daytime air temperatures typically range from 22°C to 28°C, sea temperatures remain warm enough for comfortable swimming (around 22–24°C), and rainfall is extremely rare. The sun shines consistently, and the lower humidity compared to the summer months actually makes the climate very pleasant and comfortable for children who might struggle with intense summer heat.
December and January are particularly popular with UK families during the school Christmas holiday period, and availability at well-reviewed properties like Serenity Alma Heights fills up quickly for these dates. Booking early through Madyen.com is strongly advised to secure preferred room types and board options. October half-term and February half-term are also high-demand windows. Outside of school holiday periods, winter dates offer excellent value and a quieter resort atmosphere, which many families find preferable. The combination of warm weather, calm Red Sea conditions for swimming and snorkelling, and the availability of family entertainment like Makadi Water World makes winter the single best season for this type of family holiday at Serenity Alma Heights.
If your search has led you here, you are looking for something very specific: a family-friendly hotel near Makadi Bay Beach that gives you easy access to Hurghada's entertainment and waterpark scene during the winter months, all wrapped in a reliable, well-reviewed resort package. Serenity Alma Heights on Safaga Road delivers precisely that combination.
The hotel's 4.5-star rating and 5,154 reviews represent a level of consistent guest satisfaction that is difficult to argue with, particularly for families who cannot afford a disappointing holiday when travelling with children. Its Safaga Road location puts Makadi Bay Beach and Makadi Water World within straightforward reach, while the hotel's own facilities – pools, kids' areas, all-inclusive dining – mean you are never short of things to do even on days you choose not to venture out.
Combine all of this with the Red Sea's exceptional winter climate and you have one of the most practical, enjoyable, and genuinely warm family holiday options available from the UK between November and February. Book through Madyen.com with a £20 deposit, enjoy instant confirmation, flexible payment, free cancellation on most bookings, and savings of up to 15% – and give your family the winter sun break they deserve.
