A luxurious hilltop retreat in El Gouna

Framed by vast desert plains and rugged mountains on one side and the Red Sea on the other, Ancient Sands Golf Resort and Residences combines comfort and elegance with an idyllic location, atop a hill that gently slopes into shimmering lagoons. 

Chill by whichever one of the five outdoor pools takes your fancy, make your way around the 18-hole Karl Litten golf course, and take advantage of the fabulous amenities on offer at the 7 Ciel Spa, including a Turkish bath, steam room, sauna and jacuzzi. The soft, golden sands of the Marina Beach Club are just a short shuttle bus ride away, offering another dreamy spot to relax and soak up the sun.

If you’re up for an adventure, there are plenty of scuba diving and water sports opportunities nearby – and free to join in with the daily programme of leisurely activities such as aqua aerobics, yoga and table tennis, too.

Expect a plentiful and varied offering at the Dunes Restaurant for breakfast and dinner, including rotating themed menus, and be sure to try out the extensive à la carte offering at the Piazza, which serves Italian cuisine alongside plenty of international dishes. There’s even an on-site bakery, where you can pick up fresh bread, pastries, coffee and other refreshments.
