Club Paradisio El Gouna Red Sea

The hotel was very nice, well maintained and clean. Staff was very friendly although everything is mostly in German. Food and drinks were ok, but expect to have to pay extra for like fresh juices, real alcoholic drinks etc. Pool side was nice and the beach side is very calm. Animation in the evening was a bit amateuristic though. All in all, we had a great time !

Arrived for a 10 day stay and head home tomorrow 02/05/24. We love this hotel and the staff are welcoming and friendly. Our room was upgraded to a sea view but sadly had 2 single beds for some strange reason! Great size room with walk in shower that was brilliant. Hotel has good free WiFi all over, including the rooms and pool/beach areas. Food was really good and varied and I would say, high end quality to be honest. Beach area is incredible and a haven for sun seekers with the lagoon areas directly from the sea. No snorkelling locally unfortunately so you will need to take an excursion directly from the hotel water sports team, ask for SimSim, really helpful and nice guy! To be fair, all the staff are really helpful and friendly. All the bars have 2 water taps for self service, 1 sparkling and 1 still water, absolutely brilliant idea. Bar staff are incredible and will bend over backwards to make your stay fantastic. Nightly entertainment is not the best ( our opinion only ) so we headed out most nights via Tuk Tuk…. What an experience!!!! They are located at the hotel main entrance and will take you anywhere in el gouna for 35LE set price ( 80p English) or for 250LE you will get a 1hr guided tour, we loved it. Head to downtown for bars, shopping and restaurants, you will not be disappointed. We had an evening in Abu Tig Marina and that’s stunning!! Definitely worth the trip. Back to the hotel, I personally would like to give a big shout to German 🇩🇪 people and probably fair to say 90% are German. We loved them, great people and brilliant company. We honestly can’t wait to come back. This is our 9th visit to Egypt and Club Paradisio El Gouna is our new home from home!!! Definitely recommend. The Spinks Darwen Lancashire England UK.

Can't recommend Club Paradisio and El Gouna enough, we've had a fantastic time. Room are clean, functional and a good size. My only complaint would be the size of the beds as they aren't really doubles. Our room was very close to the beach and the pool so very convenient and it's not noisy at all. Beach and pools are fab. Plenty of loungers, lots of towels and the staff and service are fantastic.

Food is very good, lots of options and we didn't ever have a problem getting a table.

There is a lovely on-site spa where we had massages, facials and pedicures all to a very high standard.

There is an on-site animations team, they are on everyday except Friday, honestly they are all very lovely but it was nice without them.

The hotel is mostly full of German guests, as English visitors we were very much in the minority but that wasn't really a problem.

There are lots of people trying to sell to you, boat trips, tours and spa treatments but they are all really friendly and will leave you alone if you are firm and friendly with them. You can also ask for a red disc to display if you want to be left alone.

We opted for a private boat trip for €125 and he took us straight out to swim with dolphins in the wild and snorkel the reef, so that was an amazing experience!

All in all we had a fabulous holiday and I would definitely return.

First time in Egypt. We had an amazing week. The staff are very attentive, the animation team is superb, the food is excellent, the beach is gorgeous with lots of comfy sunbeds and beautiful big natural grass parasols.

The whole family loved this hotel. It is the best located hotel in El Gouna and the best beach. Service is awesome, rooms are a bit dated and could be better but not bad at all. The atmosphere is so lively, recommend for many future visits and revisits.

Lovely hotel in a fabulous location.
Mainly German guests but quite a few English too.
Staff were attentive and polite.
Rooms are older style but spotlessly clean.
Plenty of food choice and plenty of drinks.
We will return, and I can highly recommend this hotel.

We had 12 lovely days in Paradisio El Gouna as a family of 5 (kids 4y, 2y and 5 months). The food was really good and we were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food. We could always find something that the kids wanted. The entire animation team were exceptional, especially Bob and Amira. Made our kids feel special and always entertained. The beach is not pearly white, but nice sand to make sandcastles and easy access for semi-independent swimming children. There was always a spot near the water for our family and no silly towels lying around reserving the beds. Since we also kite, it was a big bonus that we could kite from the hotel from Osmosis Kite center. Which was also brilliant at playing with our kids.

Before going, we didn't see much information about the kids club, so here are some pictures. The kids club has a playground in the shadow and a generous indoor area with trampoline. There is a mini disco in the evening. It started a bit late for our taste (20h30). The place itself is awesome for kids as the beach offers shallow water, and the pool is heated! For us, the highlight was the food, great quality, and variety!

Nice beach hotel.
Pro: Spacious rooms, comfortable beds, clean, excellent food in restaurant, direct Red Sea access/beach. very friendly staff, food of superb quality
Con: menu repeats itself every week. All-male staff, creating sometimes awkward athmosphere I thought - pls hire females for every open position and create equal staff distribution. Beach: sand hard as concrete. Too many staff people ask for money changing and tips - sometimes making me feel uncomfortable.

Club Paradisio is the definition of 4/5 stars. Everything in general is above average, but missing that extra step from being exceptional. The service is great, not amazing, the food is pretty good, and the area is pretty clean over all.
The night shows are ok, but could be better.
The beach was a little rocky and the ground is a little slimy.
