EL Gouna is a hidden paradise nestled along Egypt’s Red Sea coastline, and it’s a great – and cheaper – alternative to other popular resorts in Egypt.
We found all-inclusive week-long stays from £410pp this year.
The seaside resort has something for everyone, from miles and miles of beaches to amazingly clear waters and even a decent nightlife scene.
Egypt‘s El Gouna isn’t too far for Brits, as it’s just over five hours on the plane from the UK.
The holiday resort is excellent for any type of holiday. However, it’s best known as a family favourite thanks to its activities.
You’ll find anything from highly rater water parks to diving schools, snorkelling and water sports – and most hotels also offer kids’ clubs daily.
If you’d rather stay away from the water activities for a while, you’ll also find plenty of stores, cafés, restaurants, and golf courses.
Thanks to the current exchange rates, Egypt is also a great destination if you’re trying to get more for your money.
The cheapest deal we’ve found is seven nights all-inclusive at Panorama Bungalows Resort El Gouna, costing from £410pp.
The deal can also currently be booked with deposits from £29pp.
