STEIGENBERGER GOLF RESORT

Striking views of the mountains and endless water set the backdrop for the beautiful course, which is challenging for every golfer thanks to a variety of tees. From the championship markers, El Gouna tips the scales close to 7,000 yards, and is a unique challenge.

Winding its way around the resort, the golf course presents a number of interesting challenges, and the constant threat of water is exaggerated by the consistent winds which brush over the coastline. As holiday golf goes, there are few more enjoyable courses than the sun-soaked El Gouna.

The indulgent Steigenberger Golf Resort is an El Gouna institution, providing not only luxurious accommodation and first class hospitality, but also immediate access to the golf and leisure delights that the Red Sea town is so famous for.

Extravagantly designed by American architect Michael Graves, the exclusive hotel has a unique and fascinating character. The spacious rooms and suites are fitted with private balconies or terraces, in addition to a hair dryer, mini-bar, air-conditioning and satellite television.

For larger groups, the resort’s apartments afford additional privacy and comfort, and are equipped with all the most appealing facilities. Glorious colours stream through the accommodation, reflecting the character of El Gouna itself, which helps to explain why the Steigenberger Golf Resort is so popular.

Away from the golf course, diving, snorkelling and sailing are just a few of the possibilities presented by the idyllic Red Sea coastline, while the resort itself affords its own leisure opportunities. The health and fitness club boasts a gym, swimming pools and a delightful spa facility.

Enjoy an ice-cold beer at the edge of the shimmering water at the Lagoon Terrasse bar.

Of the dining options at the Steigenberger Resort, the delightful a la carte La Rotisserie comes highly recommended.
