I stayed in the villa with my family for the Christmas and New Year’s vacation. We had the place for ourselves for 10 days. This was a very lovely vacation for all of us. Communication with Ulrich was smooth and clear. The property manager was attentive and addressed all of our needs promptly. The place itself is wonderful and exactly as advertised. If you love cooking ( like we do) you’ll be happy to find that the kitchen is equipped with everything (2 different coffee machines, toaster, sandwich maker, microwave, proper gas cooker and all the needed utensils). Also, you have a very nice outdoor grill with all the tools you may need. The washing machine worked perfectly well the dryer needed to be fixed but Daniela from the property management got it fixed promptly. A nice gesture was to provide few simple things which made our life easier and made us enjoy our time even more ( e.g. sufficient good quality detergents for clothes and dishwasher , aluminum foil and plastic wraps, spices, tea and sugar...etc) simple and thoughtful. The TV worked fine and you have the OSN subscription 👍. You can also login to Netflix if you have an account. The internet speed was decent however, can get better.
The pool was lovely and got cleaned daily. If you are coming in winter ask the property management to heat it before you arrive for a small extra fee. It’s worth it😀.
We are Egyptians and regular travelers to ElGouna and this is the first time we do not stay in a hotel due to the COVID-19 situation but we all agreed that this might be a better option going forward given how much we enjoyed our time and privacy.
We’ll be coming again hopefully in the spring😉
