Cleopatra’s Deluxe Spa Treatment with Massage, Sauna, and Jacuzzi

Leave the beach with smoother skin. This three-hour Hurghada spa outing combines a sauna, steam bath, Cleopatra bath, Turkish bath, body peeling, jacuzzi time, hot drinks, and a 45-minute full-body massage. At $20 per person, it is an unusually full package for the price.

I especially like the hotel pickup and drop-off, which removes the fuss of finding a spa in an unfamiliar resort town. I also like the clear sequence of heat, scrub, foam wash, rest, and massage. The main consideration is that the sauna and jacuzzi area is mixed unless you pay an extra €38 per person for a private room, and one person found the staff noise distracting during treatment.

• A full traditional bathing sequence: Sauna, steam, kese exfoliation, foam wash, and massage are packed into one appointment.
• The body scrub is the star for many people: The peeling removes dry skin and leaves you feeling polished rather than simply rubbed with lotion.
• The 45-minute massage adds real value: Many people praise the massage, though one person felt it lasted less than the advertised time.
• Transfers are included from Hurghada hotels: Pickup and return make this easy to fit into a resort stay.
• The shared spa areas matter: Sauna and jacuzzi access is mixed, while a private room costs an additional €38 per person.
• Allow about three hours overall: That time includes the round-trip transfer, so the treatment itself may be closer to one and a half to two hours.

What the $20 Package Actually Includes

The price is the first reason this experience catches the eye. For $20 per person, you get hotel transport from Hurghada, access to the sauna and steam room, 15 minutes in the jacuzzi, a Cleopatra bath, a Turkish bath, a full-body peeling and scrub, a foam soap massage, hot drinks, a short relaxation period, and a 45-minute full-body massage.

That is a lot of separate services for the cost of a simple massage at many resort spas. I would treat this as a value-focused spa ritual rather than a high-end private wellness retreat. You are paying for a well-stocked package, not for complete solitude or a bespoke treatment plan.

The published rating is 4.7 out of 5, with 93 percent recommending the experience. That fits the overall picture: the strongest praise goes to the staff, cleanliness, body scrub, massage, and convenient transport. The weaker point is consistency. One person reported staff arguing and talking loudly near the relaxation areas, while another questioned whether the massage reached the full 45 minutes.

So, the sensible expectation is a good-value public spa visit with a traditional bathing ritual, not a silent luxury hotel spa.

Pickup From Hurghada Hotels

Your experience begins before you reach the spa. Complimentary pickup and return are provided from Hurghada hotels, and several people found the driver prompt, helpful, and easy to deal with. That is useful in Hurghada, where resort hotels are spread along the coast and a taxi ride can add uncertainty to a short appointment.

The activity begins in Hurghada and ends back at the meeting point. The stated three-hour duration includes the round-trip transfer, so do not assume you will spend three uninterrupted hours receiving treatments.

One practical detail is worth keeping in mind: pickup from Makadi, El Gouna, and Sahl Hasheesh costs an extra $15 per car, while Safaga pickup costs $20 per car. The Safaga and outlying-area charges apply per car, with a maximum of four people, rather than per person.

The group limit is 35 people. That is not a promise that 35 people will be present, but it tells you this is a shared commercial spa experience rather than a small private appointment.

Sauna and Steam: Preparing Your Skin

After you arrive, you are greeted and shown to the sauna. The planned sauna period is 10 to 15 minutes. This is not the main event, but it helps you slow down and get used to the heat before the bath ritual begins.

You then spend another 10 to 15 minutes in the steam room. The steam softens the skin and prepares it for exfoliation. The order makes sense: heat first, scrub second. If you arrive rushed from a day of sightseeing, this opening stage gives you a gentle transition into the treatment.

You should tell the staff if the heat feels too strong. The provided details do not specify individual temperature controls or medical screening, so anyone with a condition affected by heat should use common sense and ask questions before starting.

The sauna and steam room are also available during spare time. That sounds generous, but you should not feel obliged to use every facility simply because it is included. The value comes from choosing the parts that help you relax, not from turning the visit into a test of endurance.

The Cleopatra Bath and Turkish Hammam

The central ritual begins once your skin has warmed and softened. A staff member uses a kese, the traditional exfoliating mitten, along with water from a marble-polished square basin to remove dead skin.

This is the part to anticipate most if you want a noticeable body treatment. The scrub is firmer and more purposeful than a light spa polish. It is designed to lift dry surface skin, and many people consider it the best part of the package. If you have sensitive skin, tell the therapist before the scrubbing begins and ask for lighter pressure.

The treatment then moves into the foam stage. Soap is worked into bubbles, followed by a loofah wash and a cleansing massage. It is a simple pleasure, but also a very different rhythm from a standard oil massage. First comes heat, then vigorous exfoliation, then a foamy wash that leaves you feeling thoroughly clean.

The names Cleopatra bath and Turkish bath are used together in the package description. You should think of them as connected parts of one bathing experience, not as two completely separate appointments. The focus is cleansing, exfoliation, warmth, and relaxation.

The experience is not only for solo visitors. One family of two adults and children aged nine and 13 found the setting comfortable and professional. Still, children should be comfortable with warm rooms, shared areas, and a treatment involving body scrubbing. The supplied information says most people can participate, but it does not list a separate child policy.

Fifteen Minutes to Rest and Have a Drink

After the bath, you spend about 10 to 15 minutes in a relaxation lounge with hot drinks. This short pause is useful. Your skin has just been scrubbed, your body has been heated, and moving straight into a massage could feel rushed.

The break also gives you a chance to cool down and collect yourself. The package includes hot beverages, but no specific drink choices are listed. Think of this as a modest rest period rather than a long lounge session with a full food service.

This pause is where the experience can feel pleasantly unhurried, provided the spa is quiet. One negative account described staff speaking loudly and arguing close to the relaxation area, which made the sauna and treatment less peaceful. That appears to be a service problem rather than a feature of the advertised itinerary, but it is worth remembering if quiet surroundings are important to you.

Jacuzzi Time Before the Massage

The jacuzzi is included for 15 minutes. It provides a change of pace after the scrub and before the massage. You can also use the sauna, steam room, and jacuzzi during spare time, subject to the spa’s timing and shared use.

The key detail is privacy. The sauna and jacuzzi area is mixed, and a private room costs €38 extra per person. If you are booking as a couple or family and want your own space, check the private-room charge before you commit. At €38, it is almost twice the base $20 price, so it changes the value calculation considerably.

For many people, the shared area will be perfectly acceptable. For others, particularly those who expect a private spa setting, it may be the most important limitation of the package. The product description is clear enough on this point, so you can make the choice before arrival rather than being surprised.

The 45-Minute Full-Body Massage

The massage is the final major treatment and the part receiving the most enthusiastic praise. People describe it as excellent, highly professional, and deeply relaxing. One person with neck problems even felt much better afterward, though you should never treat a spa massage as medical care or expect it to resolve an injury.

The advertised treatment lasts 45 minutes and covers the full body. That is a substantial massage length for a $20 package that also includes a hammam, scrub, heat rooms, jacuzzi, drinks, and transport.

Staff members named in personal accounts include Orla and Hannie, both praised for their care and professionalism. If you have a preference for pressure, focus areas, or avoiding a particular body part, tell the therapist before the massage starts. The information does not promise that you can request a specific therapist, so any such request should be treated as subject to availability.

There is one fair warning: one person felt the massage did not last the full 45 minutes. The majority of comments about the massage are strongly positive, but you may want to keep an eye on the time without making the appointment feel like a stopwatch competition. If the treatment seems short, raise it politely with the staff before leaving.

Cleanliness, Staff, and Atmosphere

Cleanliness and staff manner are major strengths of this experience. The spa is described as tidy, spacious, tranquil, attractive, and clean. People also praise the staff for being kind, respectful, professional, and helpful from the moment of arrival.

That matters more here than it would during a quick foot massage. A hammam involves changing, heat, wet areas, close physical contact, and several transitions between rooms. Clear instructions and a reassuring staff member make the whole process much easier.

The atmosphere is not perfectly consistent. The spa can feel calm and polished, but at least one account describes loud staff conversations beside the treatment and relaxation areas, including a therapist change during the appointment. If the staff are noisy on your visit, ask for a quieter space or politely explain that you are trying to relax.

The experience has a maximum group size of 35, so the mood may depend on how many appointments are running at once. Some people found the spa pleasantly uncrowded. That is encouraging, but it should not be read as a guarantee of a private or silent setting.

Who Will Get the Most From This Spa Visit

I would recommend this for someone who wants a first taste of a Turkish bath or hammam without paying resort-spa prices. It is also a good choice after several days in the sun, when a body scrub and massage sound more appealing than another excursion.

You are likely to enjoy it if you:

• Want several treatments in one appointment
• Value hotel pickup and return
• Like firm exfoliation and a foamy wash
• Want a full-body massage at a low price
• Are comfortable using mixed shared facilities
• Have an afternoon or evening free

It may not suit you if you need a silent, private environment from start to finish. It may also be less suitable if you dislike strong exfoliation, hot rooms, or shared sauna and jacuzzi areas.

I would also avoid scheduling it immediately before a tightly timed activity. The package takes about three hours including transport, and spa appointments can run on a relaxed schedule. Give yourself breathing room.

Booking Details and Cancellation

Confirmation is provided at booking, and the activity is near public transportation. Pickup is included from Hurghada hotels, with additional charges for Makadi, El Gouna, Sahl Hasheesh, and Safaga.

You can cancel for a full refund up to 24 hours before the local start time. Cancellations or changes made within 24 hours are not accepted for a refund. The experience is booked on average 13 days ahead, so reserving before your preferred afternoon disappears is sensible, especially during busy holiday periods.

The mobile ticket is convenient. Keep the booking details available on your phone, and confirm the pickup time and hotel location carefully.

Should You Book Cleopatra’s Deluxe Spa Treatment?

For $20 per person, I think this is an easy recommendation for most Hurghada visitors who want a substantial spa afternoon without spending resort prices. The body scrub, traditional bath sequence, massage, and transport create strong value, and the 4.7 rating with 93 percent recommendation supports that judgment.

Book it if you want a friendly, efficient introduction to the hammam tradition and you are fine with shared facilities. Skip it, or pay for the private option, if privacy and silence matter more than price.

My best advice is to arrive with realistic expectations, tell the staff how much pressure you want, and allow extra time around the transfer. If you do that, this package offers a pleasant way to finish a beach holiday with cleaner skin, looser muscles, and a much slower pace.
