What "thalasso" covers

A true thalassotherapy cure relies on seawater and lasts several days. In Hurghada many hotels offer a spa with hammam, sauna, massages and scrubs: ask for the written programme, treatment length, who gives it and the price before booking. This guide is practical, not medical: with any health issue, ask a doctor.

Hammam and treatments outside the hotel

If your hotel has no spa, read hammam and spa in Hurghada for packages with transfer and the pitfalls to avoid.

Combine relaxation and the sea

A day at sea with a massage can complete the stay: for example a Giftun Island cruise with massage and lunch. See also Hurghada with kids if you travel with children.

FAQ

Is the spa included in all inclusive? Rarely for treatments; access to the hammam or sauna sometimes. Ask the hotel.

Are there adults-only hotels? Yes, for example Premier Le Rêve; check the age on its page.

Can I book a treatment before arriving? Often yes by email; ask for written confirmation.
