Why Average Rent in Hurghada Changes by Area

The average rent in Hurghada is not random. Prices are influenced by:

  • Distance from the sea
  • Tourist demand
  • Building age and amenities
  • Furnished vs unfurnished status
  • Security and gated compounds

For example, Mamsha and Hurghada Marina have higher rents due to walkability, beachfront access, and tourism infrastructure.

Meanwhile, areas like El Dahar offer lower rental prices because they cater more to local residents.

 

Average Rent in Hurghada – Studio Apartment Prices

Studio apartments are the most affordable rental option in Hurghada and are popular among digital nomads, solo expats, and long-stay visitors. The average rent in Hurghada for studios depends mainly on area and furnishing.

Currency reference: 1 USD ≈ 50 EGP | 1 EUR ≈ 54 EGP.

Furnished vs Unfurnished Studio Apartments

The average rent in Hurghada increases by 15–35% if the apartment is fully furnished. Most expats choose furnished units because buying furniture is rarely cost-effective for short stays.

  • Unfurnished Studio: 4,000–6,000 EGP
  • Basic Furnished Studio: 6,000–8,000 EGP
  • Modern Furnished Studio in Premium Area: 10,000–14,000 EGP

Tourist-heavy areas such as Hurghada Marina and Mamsha almost exclusively offer furnished units.

Typical Studio Size in Hurghada

Most studio apartments range between 35–55 square meters. Older buildings in El Dahar may offer slightly larger layouts at lower prices, while modern compounds in El Kawther focus on compact, modern designs.

Average Rent in Hurghada – One Bedroom Apartment Prices

One-bedroom apartments are the most common rental type for couples, remote workers, and long-term residents. The average rent in Hurghada for a one-bedroom unit varies significantly depending on the neighborhood, building condition, and whether the apartment is furnished.

Compared to studios, one-bedroom apartments offer better privacy and more storage space, making them ideal for stays longer than three months.

Currency reference: 1 USD ≈ 50 EGP | 1 EUR ≈ 54 EGP.

Short-Term vs Long-Term One Bedroom Rentals

The average rent in Hurghada can increase by 30–70% if you rent monthly without a long-term contract. Tourist areas such as Mamsha and Hurghada Marina often advertise short-term rates aimed at visitors.

  • Long-Term Contract (6–12 months): Stable monthly rate
  • Short-Term (1–3 months): Higher rent, flexible terms
  • Daily or Weekly Tourist Rentals: Highest price tier

Can You Negotiate Rent in Hurghada?

Yes. In most areas, especially outside premium zones, you can negotiate 5–15% off the asking price for long-term contracts. Negotiation is easier in neighborhoods like El Dahar or Al Ahyaa.

Premium beachfront units in Mamsha or near Hurghada Marina have less room for price reductions.

Average Rent in Hurghada – Two Bedroom Apartment Prices

Two-bedroom apartments are ideal for families, couples planning long-term stays, or remote workers needing extra space. The average rent in Hurghada for two-bedroom units varies significantly depending on location, building quality, and proximity to the sea.

Compared to one-bedroom units, the price increase is not always proportional — which means two-bedroom apartments often offer better value per square meter.

I would like to thank my brother Ibrahim for his great help. He organized a sea trip for me and also arranged a birthday party for me during the trip. This was my first time dealing with him, and of course, it won't be the last, God willing.

If I could give 10 stars, I would in a heartbeat!

I've booked trips and excursions in many countries, but I've rarely experienced such a high level of professionalism, honesty, and warmth.

From the initial contact to the end of our vacation in Hurghada, we received impeccable service. No matter the time of day—morning, afternoon, or late at night—the team was always available, responded immediately, and took care of every little detail. You can tell from the very first moment that guest satisfaction is their top priority.

Every single excursion was superbly organized. The ride in the luxury limousine, the transfers, the breathtaking yacht trip to the paradisiacal islands, and our unforgettable day trip to Cairo and the Pyramids of Giza were all perfectly planned. This allowed us to completely relax and enjoy our vacation.

I was particularly touched by the surprise for my son's birthday. Such thoughtful gestures can't be bought. They demonstrate the heart, attention, and passion this team puts into their work. It's moments like these that transform a wonderful vacation into a memory for a lifetime.

What impressed me most was the honesty, reliability, and transparency. No empty promises were made; every commitment was honored. Unfortunately, that's not always the case these days.

A huge thank you to the entire team! You made our family vacation truly special. I will recommend you to anyone who wants to discover Hurghada, the Red Sea, the paradise islands, or Cairo.

For me, you're not just worth five stars, but at least ten.

Thank you so much for everything. We will definitely be back!

I was very well taken care of by Discover hurghada. Great communication from Ibrahim. Friendly and attentive service throughout from all. I booked a horse riding tour and I was happy with the condition of the horses as well as the expertise of the guide Said who came with me.
I felt very safe throughout as a solo female. Mahmoud the driver was very reassuring and friendly. Hany the stable owner kindly gave me a tour of the horses as I wanted reassurance about their wellbeing.
The horses are different breeds and are well taken care of.
