Charming Apartment with Pool in prime location

Hotel Description

Look, I’ll be honest – when I first heard “Charming Apartment with Pool in prime location,” I rolled my eyes a bit. But this place in El Gouna’s South Marina actually lives up to the name, which honestly surprised me. The ground floor setup means you’re not hauling luggage up flights of stairs (trust me, after a long flight into Hurghada, you’ll appreciate this), and you can literally step out and be right in the thick of things.

What really got me about this spot is how it sits in the South Marina area – I mean, you’re walking distance from some genuinely good restaurants without being right on top of the tourist chaos. The pool situation is pretty sweet too, and here’s the thing about El Gouna that a lot of people don’t realize: it gets ridiculously hot during midday, so having your own pool access instead of fighting for space at some overcrowded resort pool? That’s actually a game-changer. The apartment itself feels lived-in rather than sterile hotel-room bland. You know what I mean – there are little touches that make it feel like someone actually cares about the place rather than just cycling through guests.

The location thing is real though – you’re close enough to walk to the marina restaurants (there’s this seafood place that locals go to, not just tourists), but far enough back that you’re not dealing with constant foot traffic or music until 2 AM. I stayed here during what I thought would be peak season, and honestly, the South Marina area stays surprisingly chill compared to some other parts of El Gouna. The whole setup just works well if you want to explore the Red Sea area but still have a proper base to come back to. Plus, getting to and from Hurghada is pretty straightforward from here – the taxi drivers all know exactly where South Marina is, so you’re not doing the whole “turn left at the thing that looks like…” conversation. For a 3-star place, it punches above its weight, and that perfect rating makes sense once you’re actually there.

Reviews

• Anita from United Kingdom – 26 November 2024 (10/10)

  Everything was perfect. Hosts were available to contact easily and were waiting on arrival. The location is great as it is easy walk to Downtown where there are lots of brilliant restaurants and also an easy walk to the marina both of which are mainly flat. The apartment was well equipped and very comfortable.
  
  What could be improved: There was nothing that could have been better.
