Hotel Description
You know what caught me off guard about the Joubal villa? It’s literally the first place you’ll see when driving into El Gouna – I mean, you’re right at the entrance, but somehow it doesn’t feel like you’re stuck in traffic chaos. The marina is close enough that you can hear the gentle clanking of boat masts when the wind picks up, which honestly became one of those sounds I actually looked forward to.
The villa itself is proper spacious – three bedrooms that actually fit real furniture, not those cramped hotel rooms where you’re bumping into everything. The private pool is the real winner here, though. It’s not massive, but it’s perfect for cooling off after spending the day exploring El Gouna’s lagoons or hitting the Red Sea beaches. I spent most mornings there with coffee, watching the marina come alive with day-trippers heading out for diving excursions. The pool area gets gorgeous light in the late afternoon too, if you’re into that sort of thing. What I really appreciated was having a proper kitchen – after weeks of restaurant food, being able to grab groceries from the nearby Tamr Henna Plaza and cook something simple felt like luxury.
The location is actually brilliant once you figure it out. Sure, you’re at the entrance to El Gouna, but that means you’re five minutes from everything without dealing with the downtown Abu Tig Marina crowds. The Red Sea is a short drive away, and you can easily hop between the different El Gouna districts – Kafr, Abu Tig, Tamr Henna – without feeling like you’re stuck in one area. Parking is never an issue, which anyone who’s driven around Egyptian resort towns will tell you is not always a given. The place has that laid-back, residential vibe that’s hard to find in typical hotel strips. I mean, it’s not going to win any design awards – it’s pretty straightforward, three-star kind of setup – but everything works, the AC keeps up with the heat, and the beds are actually comfortable. The only thing that might bug some people is that you can hear a bit of road noise from the main El Gouna entrance, but it dies down completely at night. For the price point and the amount of space you get, especially if you’re traveling with family or friends, it’s honestly a smart choice over cramming into hotel rooms.
