About Pickalbatros Dana Beach Resort Hurghada

Pickalbatros Dana Beach Resort is a 5-star all-inclusive resort on the Villages Road in Hurghada, about 15 minutes from Hurghada International Airport. Open since 2004, it is one of the city's biggest resorts: 866 rooms on 181,000 m², with a natural lagoon running from reception down to the sea.

Guests reach the sandy beach on landscaped paths or by boat across the lagoon, and the shallow lagoon entry is gentle enough for small children. With an aqua park, a heated indoor children's pool, a free kids club and restaurants from Italian to German and oriental, it is built for family holidays.
