Nicola

England · Joined January 2023

I am 31 with two children and am renting out our family home when not in use. We are a mix of vegetarian and vegan (I've been meat free for 28yrs and vegan the last 4-5 and my children and lifelong veggies who dip in and out of veganism) Me and my minis are big on travel and exploring whilst being immersed in local cultures. Love animals (there's wild dog packs nearby so have a strict rule that food scraps should be separated and given to them directly and hope guests would continue this whilst we are away)

Neighborhood

Getting around the area

The bus stops at the end of the lane approx 100m from the building entrance and can take you to el gouna area (take ID with you) where youl find plenty of high end eateries amongst expats and wealthy Egyptians. Beach Club has a huge range of vegan options and is fantastic! For a more authentic experience take the bus or Uber to Fayrouz just ten mins south where there's fruit shops and many Egyptian restaurants, fool tahini falafel rice stuffed vines and mixed vegetables are easy to find delicious foods at a very cheap price. There is also a Bestway supermarket which sales masses of vegan cheeses, frozen vegan products, jon dairy milks. Warning there is a horse stables behind the building. I visited many times to check the welfare and they receive excellent vet care and general treatment including that of their non profitable fowl. The beach is a public beach ten mins walk however you can access private beaches in many areas. There's also boat trips of course with scuba diving being a huge pull to Egypt for tourists and as such strict rules regarding fishing and littering.

About This Space

A closer look at the stay

About

Three bedrooms ...one double room with balcony, twin bunk bed "kids" room, one with double sofa bed and desk space, bathroom with shower unit, living room with open plan kitchen and breakfast bar, and large second balcony with dining table. Compound has 24hr security, gym and spa access, minimarket, reception and 5 pools (3 onsite, 2 in connecting building) On bus route to el gouna and dahar hurghada downtown. 35 mins from the airport. Quiet relaxing area but buzzing towns ten mins in each direction (fayrouz to the S and gouna N)

The space

The building is protected by 24hr security and office hour reception staff who can assist you to the correct apartment via one the lifts, there is a key safe to gain access. Once inside you are immediately in the open plan living/kitchen area which consists of breakfast bar, electric hobs, fan oven, washing machine, sink, prep area, a double sofa bed, coffee tables x 2 and full length mirror, there is also an AC unit about the double doors to the balcony where youl find a dining table and chairs. To the left of the front door is the twin room with exciting bunk beds with a slide, a chalk board, vibrant decor, electric fans, play mat, a stocked book shelf, TV with DVD player and a selection of kids dvds. To the right of the living room area are three doors, first is to the bathroom with sink, toilet and shower unit as well as the water filter system (there is also a large wash bucket for children). The next door is to the double room with a triple 2m high mirrored wardrobe, double bed and bedside drawers, the double doors lead to the balcony overlooking three pools and downstairs restaurant. There is the wall mounted clothes rack. The third room consists of a bedside table, double sofa bed and desk with windows overlooking the restaurant and one pool. The gym and spa can be accessed via aqua palms building. Parking is free onsite Free WiFi in reception

The kitchen

I have a blender used for smoothies and my daughter's pancake mix which contains egg and dairy free milks however I am vegan and use only the small frying pan for egg products. There's strictly NO meat or fish allowed in the property. With my family we ensure any scraps (food recycling) is put into a container or bag and given to the street dogs. Not only for their own benefit but as they will otherwise rummage the big communal waste bins and could injure themselves whilst also causing some mess. I would like guests to also do so but it's not mandatory just a suggestion. (If fearful of dogs it can be left to the side of the building as they will seek out the food) Recycling is not officially done however again if you separate cardboard glass tins and plastics from general waste it reduces the need for people to be rummaging bins for tradable recycling. Anything in the cupboards fridge and freezer unless labelled otherwise (UK imports) is free to use.

Other things to note

WiFi in reception is free It's paid in the house you can top up at orange. Phone signal varies depending on providers. AC is only in the livingroom area with electric fans throughout. The area is quiet as the outskirts of the town so arriving at nighttime may feel far however it's less than ten mins so everything you need is nearby and can be avoided when you want some calm.
