Makadi Heights
Orascom Developments' Makadi Bay project — 16 residential zones, no marina
What is Makadi Heights?
Makadi Heights is Orascom Developments' Makadi Bay destination on the Red Sea coast, 15 minutes from Hurghada International Airport and 20 minutes from central Hurghada, split by the official makadiheights.com site into 16 named residential zones — 8 of them badged fully sold out by the site itself, and 8 still selling as of August 2026. Active marketing began by at least 2019, with the first residents moving in during 2022.
Makadi Heights' stated footprint depends on which Orascom domain you read: the project's own makadiheights.com cites 3.4 million m² across at least two separate pages, while Orascom Developments' corporate site orascomde.com states a different figure of 4 million m² — an internal disagreement between two official sources that this research does not resolve in favour of either. The master plan targets roughly 9,000 residential units in total, of which 2,750 had sold as of December 2021, per historical data.

Where is Makadi Heights located?
Makadi Heights sits on Makadi Bay south of Hurghada, roughly 15 minutes by car from Hurghada International Airport and 20 minutes from central Hurghada, making it Orascom Developments' second-largest Red Sea destination after El Gouna. Unlike El Gouna, Makadi Heights has no marina to date — a confirmed absence, not a data gap — while it does hold a shopping mall, a clubhouse, sports facilities and an Educational Hub, all officially classified as service amenities rather than for-sale product.

What unit types and prices does Makadi Heights offer?
Unit types: Apartments, Chalets, Twin villas, Standalone villas, Townhouses
Makadi Heights' available units are spread across 8 of its 16 zones, from compact DUA apartments (66–137 m²) to spacious Siyal villas (135–250 m²), with no single official starting price published by Orascom Developments for any zone on its own site — figures circulating via brokers such as realestate.eg or the marketing microsite orascom-makadiheights.com are not reliably dated in their sources, so this guide does not state specific numbers without direct confirmation. For one documented reference point: apartments in the now fully sold-out Cape zone started from EGP 5,060,000 per compoundgate.com in August 2026, a historical price for a zone no longer available. Delivery dates also disagree between the official site and broker platforms by as much as 4 years in some zones, such as Ledge (2026 officially versus 2030 per realestate.eg).
Neither Orascom Developments nor the project's own site publishes a starting price for any of Makadi Heights' 16 zones; broker-quoted figures are not reliably dated enough to state here — contact us to confirm current pricing and availability.

What is the Makadi Heights master plan?
EDSA led the landscape and urban design for Makadi Heights, alongside additional consultants including Lebanon's AAA, Ayman Arafa Design (AAD), and Innovation Design Studio, across a footprint the two Orascom domains themselves disagree on — 3.4 million m² per makadiheights.com or 4 million m² per orascomde.com. The master plan divides the project into 16 officially named zones, targeting roughly 9,000 residential units long-term, and to date none of those 16 zones has a verified Arabic name — makadiheights.com has no Arabic-language version at all.
Why invest in Makadi Heights?
Makadi Heights earns attention as Orascom Developments' second Red Sea destination after El Gouna, carrying strong bilingual search interest in the umbrella name (10 varied English and Arabic autocomplete suggestions) even though almost none of its 16 individual zones shows independent search demand of its own — meaning buyers search 'Makadi Heights' first and phase names second. Orascom Developments' newest zone, Ledge Valley, is currently at early expression-of-interest stage with lagoon-facing chalets, a sign the destination keeps expanding even with half of its 16 zones already fully sold out.
