El Gouna: Where To Sleep

Three Corners Ocean View

The Charming Hotel

The hotel in El Gouna I recommend you to stay is the Three Corners Ocean View, ideally located in the marina with an amazing 180 degree view of the Red Sea and turquoise lagoons! A discreet gem of friendliness with a great team. It feels really good and you can totally destress. The marina’s restaurants and shops are a short walking distance, or you can take tuk tuks.

I really liked this small hotel, even if the interior design doesn’t match my tastes. Here, I soon forgot this “detail” to fully appreciate the exceptional location, cleanliness, kindness of the effecient staff, as well as the discretion of the other customers. In short, the unique atmosphere of this hotel reserved for adults.

Our large room was comfortable with a big balcony and a lovely view of the yachts. The basic bathroom with shower was convenient. And the icing on the cake: the outdoor terraces with flower gardens (and the Red Sea in the background) and the quality of the restaurant, both at breakfast and for dinners.

Steigenberger Golf & Resort El Gouna

Beautiful Gardens

The first highlights of the Steigenberger Golf Resort El Gouna is its beautiful gardens! A pleasure for the eyes! Our spacious room had a shaded terrace with a magnificent view of a lagoon and the 18-hole golf course. The dream setting to have breakfast! So much nicer than at the main restaurant, but the choice is also more limited.

The facilities are clean and comfortable and the space is not lacking, but the interior design does not match my taste here too. The hotel is large (268 rooms) and a bit far to the marina: to move to the outside restaurants or other activities, you have to book a transport, tuk tuk or taxi. The first night we stayed at the hotel, while the second night we had dinner at a marina restaurant.

As we are very active (Louxor day tour, bicycle, quad and jeep, diving and beach club), we spent less time in the hotel. But at the hottest hours of day, we were in the nice pool, or in the shade to enjoy the gardens (which I’m a big fan!).
