How to avoid sunburn by the pool at Hurghada hotels when traveling with kids?

TL;DR

Look for lounge chairs under large pool umbrellas or curtained cabanas (can be half-closed for shade and airflow) — these are popular with families with children.

What the community said

Even careful sun protection matters — don't judge water or sun safety by kids' comfort, since children are usually the last to feel cold in the pool or sea.

Many hotel pools have curtained cabanas that can be half-closed for shade while still letting air through. These are mostly used by families with kids, while adults without children tend to sunbathe on the open lawn nearby.

If traveling with a young child, stay close to the pool umbrellas — the sun in Hurghada is deceptively strong, and you can get sunburned quickly even if it doesn't feel too hot.
