Ollystays Mangroovy Seaview 1BR Beach and Pool Free access Overview
First Impressions
When I first pulled up to Ollystays Mangroovy Seaview 1BR Beach and Pool Free access, I’ll be honest — the name’s a mouthful, but the location immediately made sense. You’re right in the heart of El Gouna, this planned resort town that feels like someone took the best parts of the Red Sea coast and designed it from scratch. The Mangroovy Residence complex has this modern, clean aesthetic that works well against the desert backdrop, and you can actually smell the sea air from the moment you step out of your car.
The Apartment Setup
This is essentially a one-bedroom apartment rather than a traditional hotel room, which honestly makes all the difference for longer stays. The seaview they promise? It’s real — I spent way too much time on that balcony with my morning coffee, watching the boats drift by in the marina. The kitchen is compact but functional, with everything you need if you want to skip the restaurant scene for a night and just cook something simple. The whole space feels like someone’s well-maintained vacation home rather than a sterile hotel setup.
Location and Getting Around
El Gouna is one of those places where everything’s walkable, but you know what? Having that free parking spot is clutch if you want to explore beyond the immediate area. Hurghada’s about 25 minutes away when you need that bigger city energy, but honestly, most days you won’t want to leave. The beach access is literally right there — no crowded hotel lobbies to navigate through, no fighting for prime spots. You just walk down and you’re on some of the clearest water I’ve seen along this stretch of coast.
The Pool and Beach Experience
The pool area gets busy during peak hours, but early morning or late afternoon? It’s perfect. The water’s always clean, and there’s enough space that you’re not bumping elbows with other guests. But honestly, the real draw is that beach access — the Red Sea here is incredible for snorkeling, and you’ll see fish right from the shore that would cost you a boat trip elsewhere. I mean, the coral’s not pristine everywhere, but there are spots just a short swim out where it’s genuinely spectacular.
Why Guests Love It
Look, this isn’t a five-star resort with white-glove service and marble everything, but that’s actually part of its charm. It’s the kind of place where couples come to actually relax — no wonder the feedback mentions how much pairs love it here. You get the independence of your own space, the amenities you actually need, and a location that puts you right in the middle of one of Egypt’s most thoughtfully planned resort communities. The 9.2 location rating makes total sense when you experience how easy everything is from here — marina walks, beach time, decent dining options all within a few minutes’ walk.
Hotels in Hurghada dot marina promenades, offering coral-view balconies, shisha terraces, and seafood grills steps from the shore.

Reviews of Ollystays Mangroovy Seaview 1BR Beach and Pool Free access
Kerstin from Germany – 25 March 2025 (9/10)
What could be improved: Der Strand ist nicht schön.
Angelika from Germany – 17 January 2025 (4/10)
Die Lage ist gut, sehr nah zum Strand, direkt am Pool, ein Supermarkt ganz in der Nähe.
Am Strand gibt es kostenlose Liegen und Schirme.
Der Kontakt zum Vermieter/Verwalter war sehr freundlich, Anfragen wurden sofort beantwortet.
Bei Ankunft war Milch im Kühlschrank und ein sehr großer Trinkwasserspender war vorhanden.
Es gab Spül- und Waschmittel, Duschgel und Shampoo. Einige Kaffeekapseln, Tee und Zucker waren vorhanden.
Die Matratzen waren gut, der Balkon windgeschützt mit Blick auf Pool und Meer.
Im Schlafzimmer gab es reichlich Stauraum.
Wir durften am Abreisetag bis zum Abend im Apartment bleiben.
What could be improved: Leider war das Apartment nicht sauber!
In allen Räumen große Staubflusen und lange schwarze Haare. Ablagen an der Spülen stark verschmutzt, Schmutz unter jedem Gerät und in allen Schränken.
Brandflecken in der Bettwäsche und einige Handtücher mit Flecken.
Wir haben ziemlich lange gereinigt um das Apartment für uns bewohnbar zu machen.
Im Schlafzimmer gab es keine Nachtkästchen und keine Lampen am Bett.
Das Sofa war völlig durchgesessen und der Bezug teilweise zerissen.
Die Dusche im Bad müsste gründlich gereinigt werden.Wolfgang from Germany – 27 October 2024 (9/10)
Sehr schöne Lage mit Blick auf den Pool. Der große Wasserspender war einfach genial. Zudem war die Ausstattung mit Geschirr und Reinigungsmitteln sehr gut. Der Bright Star Supermarkt war sehr nahe.
What could be improved: Beleuchtung im Schlafzimmer sehr grell und im Gegensatz zu allen anderen Leuchten nicht dimmbar. Keine Nachttischlampen verfügbar. Ausziehcouch im Wohnzimmer hat eine sehr weiche Matratze, als Erwachsener spürt man die Querstreben darunter.Tarek from Egypt – 14 April 2024 (9/10)
L’équipement de l’appartement était top. Rien n’y manquait.

Apartment has everything you need, built and furnished with high standards; hosts even left coffee and milk for us!
