TL;DR
In Makadi Bay, small accessories like waterproof phone pouches can be hard to find, especially inside resort areas. The practical options are to bring one with you, ask around at your hotel, or go into Hurghada where shopping options are better.
If you need one urgently in Makadi Bay, don’t count on easily buying it in the resort area. The most practical option is to ask other Russian-speaking guests at your hotel whether someone can lend you a pouch for a day.
For swimming, the recommended item is a waterproof neck pouch so you can keep your phone with you in the water. If you didn’t bring one, it may be easier to borrow one from other hotel guests than to hunt for a nearby shop.
If shopping and walking around matter to you, Hurghada is a better base than Makadi. Makadi is more for relaxing inside the resort, so for accessories and general shopping it makes more sense to go into town.
