El Gouna is a magical sport to swim among dolphins or to snorkel Actually the sea is crystal clear that you will not need a google to see colored fish

Hurghada was my perfect gateway to sun, sea, and relaxation. Located on Egypt’s Red Sea coast, it offered a mix of resort comfort and colorful underwater adventures. I stayed at a beachside hotel with direct access to crystal-clear waters and vibrant coral reefs. One of the highlights was a snorkeling trip — I saw schools of tropical fish, coral gardens, and even a curious sea turtle. I also took a boat trip to Giftun Island, where the white sand and turquoise sea felt almost unreal. In the evenings, I explored the Marina Boulevard, full of restaurants and shisha lounges, and enjoyed fresh seafood with a view of the yachts. For a change of scenery, I visited the old town (El Dahar), wandered through its markets, and tasted local Egyptian dishes. Hurghada surprised me with its relaxed vibe, friendly people, and endless blue horizons — an ideal destination for both rest and discovery. #beachlife #travel #myitinerary #staycation #egypt

El Gouna was amazing. Egypt was our summer destination this year and we couldn’t choose any better! ⭐️

Ready for a slice of Southeast Asian luxury in the heart of Egypt? 🌴 The Chedi El Gouna is a beachfront oasis that may just make you forget you're in Egypt! 🏖️ First off, the views are a solid five-star treat. Imagine stepping out of your room right onto the beach, with the Red Sea lapping at your feet – pure bliss! 🌅 However, the interior decor might not hit the same high notes, and the Wi-Fi can be a bit of a mood dampener. But let's talk perks! The staff's service is top-notch, and the spa boasts skilled Indonesian therapists for that extra touch of zen. 🧘‍♀️ A few quirks to note: the air conditioning takes a break as soon as you open the door, and you might need a little patience for the shower to warm up. But these are small prices to pay for the tranquility you'll find here, especially compared to the bustling Hurghada nearby. So, if you're looking to lounge by the Red Sea with fewer crowds, bookmark The Chedi El Gouna at Hill Villas Rd. It's your go-to for understated luxury and impeccable service. 📌 #ElGouna #ElGounaHotel #ElGounaTravel
