Picolo recommends · Hotel in El Gouna, Egypt
Sheraton Miramar
Ochre domes and painted arches spread across a cluster of small islands, with water and footbridges between your room and breakfast.
You notice the buildings before anything else. Domes, arches and bold colours give the Sheraton Miramar a look you will not mix up with any other hotel on the coast, and the resort is spread over several islets in the lagoon.
There are beaches and pools to choose between, and boats link the resort with the rest of El Gouna. Town, marina and the open beaches are all easy to reach, so you can combine resort days with evenings out.
Picolo’s verdict
Why we chose Sheraton Miramar
We picked it for families and couples who want variety: different pools, different beaches and a resort that feels like a small village. The location gives you El Gouna on your doorstep without a long transfer.
Not every room is in the same condition, and some feel more tired than others. Read the room descriptions closely and pay a little more for a renovated category if the standard matters to you.
