Best Private Pool Villas in Hurghada, Egypt (2026)

Hurghada has three confirmed hotels where a genuine private pool comes with the suite or villa – a deliberately short list, since most of the Red Sea coast's mega-resorts run on large shared and lagoon-style pools instead. Baron Palace Sahl Hasheesh, The Oberoi Beach Resort Sahl Hasheesh, and Rixos Premium Magawish's Royal Villa are the three confirmed exceptions.

The Oberoi Beach Resort, Sahl Hasheesh

Sahl Hasheesh, Hurghadafrom from £350/night
Grand Suite with Private Pool – a private outdoor pool in the suite's own garden, with a separate bedroom and living area

The Oberoi Beach Resort in Sahl Hasheesh carries the strongest guest rating of any confirmed private-pool property in Hurghada. Its Grand Suite with Private Pool places a private outdoor pool in the suite's own garden, with a separate bedroom and living area – a design built around space and privacy rather than resort scale. The whole property holds just 102 units, deliberately spaced apart.

Guests consistently praise the design, food and staff attentiveness. This is the pick for travelers who want the Red Sea's most polished, boutique-scale private-pool stay rather than a big all-inclusive complex.

Baron Palace Sahl Hasheesh

Sahl Hasheesh, Hurghadafrom from £180/night
Royal Suite with Private Pool – a private swimming pool overlooking the Red Sea, with a dining table for four and complimentary in-suite breakfast

Baron Palace Sahl Hasheesh's Royal Suite with Private Pool is the most affordable confirmed private-pool stay in Hurghada, with a private pool overlooking the Red Sea and unlimited access to the resort's à la carte restaurants on the Premium All-Inclusive rate. The resort sits on 600 m² of private sandy beach in Sahl Hasheesh Bay, with heated infinity pools for the rest of the property's guests.

This is the pick for travelers who want a genuine private pool alongside a full all-inclusive board, at a price well below the other two confirmed properties on this list.

Rixos Premium Magawish Suites and Villas

Magawish, central Hurghadafrom from £300/night
Royal Villa – 4 bedrooms, private pool, fully equipped kitchenette, butler and chef service (approx. 944 sqm); note the resort's separate 'Pool Villa' category has a shared, not private, pool

Rixos Premium Magawish's Royal Villa is the largest confirmed private-pool accommodation in Hurghada – four bedrooms, a private pool, a fully equipped kitchenette and dedicated butler and chef service across roughly 944 sqm. This is a genuinely different category from the resort's standard "Pool Villa," which has a terrace with direct access to a shared pool rather than a private one – worth confirming the exact category name before booking.

The resort runs ultra all-inclusive with seven à la carte restaurants and 30 pools across the property (though only the Royal Villa's is private), making it the most resort-scale of the three confirmed Hurghada properties. This is the pick for larger families or groups who want a private pool alongside the widest on-site dining and activity program.

When to go

March–May and October–November are Hurghada's best months for a private-pool stay: warm enough for daily pool use without the intense mid-summer heat, and calm Red Sea conditions for diving and snorkeling trips to the coral reefs. June–August brings extreme heat (often 38°C+), which many travelers still visit for despite the temperatures, given lower rates; December–February is milder and popular with travelers escaping colder climates back home, though sea temperatures dip slightly. Hurghada International Airport (HRG) serves the whole area, with transfers to Sahl Hasheesh and Magawish running 20–40 minutes.
