The UK contributes more than one million visitors to Egypt each year, placing it among the country’s leading European source markets. Egypt is drawing record numbers of international arrivals, and British interest in premium Red Sea breaks has increased alongside that growth. Rixos Hotels Egypt has opened Rixos Premium Magawish Bay View as its second resort in Hurghada to serve that market.
Hurghada has direct flight connections from London, Manchester, Birmingham, Bristol and Glasgow, making it an accessible option for British holidaymakers. Year-round sunshine, sandy beaches, and strong all-inclusive offerings underpin its appeal.
The new Rixos Premium Magawish Bay View opens next to Rixos Premium Magawish Suites & Villas and runs on the brand’s Ultra All-Inclusive concept. It offers contemporary architecture, a varied dining offer, and broad lifestyle facilities across the site.
Sitting seven kilometres from Hurghada International Airport, the resort has direct access to the Red Sea coast, with clear waters and sandy beaches on its doorstep.
An Important Milestone in Our Red Sea Growth Vision
Commenting on the opening, Erkan Yildirim, CEO of Rixos Hotels Egypt, said:
“Rixos Premium Magawish Bay View represents an important milestone in our growth vision for the Red Sea. We strongly believe in Hurghada’s growing position within international tourism and continue to view the region’s potential through a long-term perspective. At Rixos, we go beyond resort operations by creating destination experiences that bring together gastronomy, entertainment, sports, wellness and lifestyle. With Rixos Premium Magawish Bay View, we are proud to contribute to Hurghada’s journey towards becoming one of the world’s most preferred resort destinations.”
