After 12 times of Egypt in the same fine resort, we wanted to try something different. We decided to take a sort of “test vacation” at Panorama Bungalows El Gouna for a week. We liked it so much that we promptly added two more weeks in December. It is registered as a 4 star hotel but we thought it was definitely worth a 5 star. Wonderful unique setting, daily boat trip to the beach (which is also easily reached by a short walk), very friendly staff and delicious, varied food. By the way, you notice that the staff is REALLY friendly, there is a relaxed friendly atmosphere. Within walking distance is “downtown” where you feel more like in Saint-Tropez than in Egypt, and at half the price of Europe. Short trips are made by “TukTuk” for the price of one Euro, a charming three-wheeled cart that actually originated in Italy. Also, the local über-taxis are very convenient and certainly not expensive (a ride from El Gouna to the Airport in Hurghada comes to about 6 Euro or sometimes even less). In short, an exceptionally successful vacation and definitely worth recommending.
