My wife and I wanted to try a villa holiday for the extra piece and quiet without sacrificing the accommodation standards and amenities we usually seek when staying at high end hotels. We choose this villa based on the description and photos, and upon arrival we were not disappointed. The villa is exactly as shown in the photos and took our breath away. All rooms are very well appointed with everything you need and it instantly felt like a home from home. The 3 main bedrooms are of a good size each with ensuite facilities, plenty of storage and 2 have direct access to a terrace overlooking the pool area. The bathroom in the master bedroom also includes a large bath. We found the bed to be very comfortable. The downstairs living area is open plan and comprises a very well equipped kitchen with breakfast bar and all the appliances you need. Adjacent to the kitchen is a large dining room area, next to which is the main living room. In the living room there is a large flat screen tv with access to an extensive range of channels including current movie channels in languages to suit most. WiFi throughout the villa is available for a small extra charge and coverage throughout the villa and outdoor areas was excellent. The jewel in the crown is definitely the pool area and surrounding grounds. The pool is a good size with swallow and deep ends and your own personal pool bar incorporating a BBQ. There is a large patio area comprising 6 comfortable sun beds, sun shades, a shaded dining table and an outside sofa area. Just beyond the pool there is a private beach area overlooking the lagoon and mountains in the distance. The whole pool area received sun throughout the day with the sun setting over the mountains for some stunning views in the early evening. The villa is located in a very quiet part of El Gouna. The downtown and marina areas are a 5-10 minute Tuk Tuk or taxi ride away, both of which can be booked via the free local phone network and are very reasonably priced. The town itself is beautiful with everything you need including activities, shops, bars, and a wide selection of restaurants, most of which deliver direct to the villa if needed. Security throughout El Gouna is of a very high standard and all the people we met during our stay could not have been more welcoming. The villa is perfect for couples and families alike, and the booking process and communication with the owner Dr Laila was first class. We cannot wait to return!

Overall, we had a very pleasant stay at the Villa and enjoyed our time. Dr. Laila is very responsive and helpful. However, the bedsheets and the towels were dirty when we arrived, but they were changed on our request.

We traveled to El Gouna as a family, with my parents, husband and 1 year old and had an excellent holiday. The booking process was simple and the owner was very helpful. The property manager was also very helpful and arranged a cleaning service daily for us. We also arranged a trip to Luxor through hem which was excellent. We were met at the airport but a private transfer which was organised by the property manager. When we got there, we were met and shown around. They had heated the pool for us in advance and everything was ready for our arrival. The villa was very clean and had everything we needed. There are some signs of wear and tear but overall, we were really happy with the space. The reasons I gave it 4 out of 5 are because we felt there wasn't really enough information in the house about the area, such as info on restaurants, tuktuks, things to do and so on. We also weren't aware that we had to pay cash for the electricity at the end. We also felt the bed were very hard and a bit squeeky, but that's personal preference. Overall, we had a fabulous time and will come back to El Gouna again. Thank you Dr Laila and Lauther.

Stayed at villa for 12 nights March 2016. Weather perfect as usual , although a little breezy at times. Villa in excellent condition- well appointed with everything needed for a family holiday. Gardens and pool maintained on a daily basis and streets and communal areas are kept spotlessly clean. Transfers were arranged through Sara the villa manager and she was on hand to meet us and wave us off, and kept in touch throughout our stay. El Gouna is a perfect choice for guaranteed sunshine anytime throughout the year , and would certainly recommend this villa and the resort for couples and families alike.

Recently returned from a lovely relaxing 2 week stay in this gorgeous villa. It's located in a very peaceful location just a short taxi/ tuk tuk ride away from Downtown & the marina. The villa itself is very well equipped and spacious and the outdoor area is fantastic. Kids spent most of their time in the pool which we'd arranged to have heated before we arrived. El Gouna itself was very quiet but we had some lovely meals out and received great service wherever we went. Can't recommend highly enough & we hope to return next year!

LOVELY VILLA AND HAD GREAT TIME IN EL GOUNA. ALTHOUGH THE WEATHER WAS VERY VERY HOT BUT AIR CONDITION IN THE VILLA HELPED. DR LAILA AND SARA WERE VERY HELPFULL.

My stay was great, the villa is really amazing. It's really clean and has all the facilities and amenities needed. The Villa location is very convenient, and the view is stunning. We were extremely pleased in dealing with the owner and the agent.

The villa is spacious, very clean and just as advertised. It's well equipped which makes you feel right at home. You are not left wanting or needing anything; they provide the pool towels, bath towels and linens. The kitchen is quite well equipped and the pool bar has a built-in barbecue. The furniture is well kept, clean and comfortable. Both the owner and property manager are lovely ladies, professional, very friendly and extremely helpful with any requests or questions relating to Gouna. Our group of 8 were very comfortable accommodated during our one-week stay and the kids enjoyed the pool, riding their bikes and playing by the lagoon. We will definitely keep this property on our favorite list.

We stayed in Dr Laila's Villa in July and spent about 2 weeks there. When we arrived, it was very clean and we gained immediate access when we arrived at the Villa from the Airport. It is a lovely villa and our children probably spent more time in the family-friendly swimming pool than they did indoors! The Villa is a 5 minute taxi ride (this can be arranged for free from the villa) from the shops and restaurants of Downtown and the Marina. We were in regular contact with Sara (Property Manager) who was always very quick in responding to any of our correspondence. Despite what seems to be a general opinion, we felt very safe in and around El Gouna and even when we went further afield on a sightseeing tour to Luxor, we were well looked after. There were a lot of open door activities in the evenings in Downtown & Marina which were great fun for the kids.

This villa is great everything is perfect , villa is spacious and very clean , the swimming pool is amazing and the view is great . Everything is well organized and the keys was ready when i arrived the villa was cleaned and everything you expect you will get. I enjoyed a lovely vacation will definetely book it again.

Myself and my family stayed in the villa for a week over Easter and it was fantastic. The owner was excellent and gave us all the information required during our stay. The location of the villa is brill not too far from the airport. We were meet at the airport by a taxi organised by the manager of the property in Egypt she is very helpful and lives locally so knows about anything you need. There is a supermarket close by which has a good range of foods and the marina and beach are good. There are plenty of restaurants to eat at in the town centre so there is a lot of variety there to choose from. I would compare el gouna to an upmarket self catering eurocamp type feel with amazingly beautiful villas instead of tents and caravans, freedom to just walk around the complex and amazing weather everyday. There is a lot of security surrounding el gouna so you feel very safe there at all times. There is also no hassling from vendors so shopping in the shops in El Gouna is nice. All round we had a truly fantastic time and would definately go back to el gouna and stay in this amazing villa again. Thank you Laila x

We were a party of five, four adults and a teenager. We found the villa to be just as advertised and very nice inside and out. The villa is a little out of the way of the main area but we didn't mind as we like peace and quiet, and it costs just 50p per person to ride in a Tuk Tuk or Tok Tok anywhere on the complex, we preferred the Tok Tok's as the drivers were more sedate. Everywhere people were so friendly and we felt very safe there. Plenty of bars and restaurants to choose from and plenty of Tok Tok's to take us home. This really is an area of the world that more Brits need to discover - so cheap and friendly. Waterhouse/Douglas family

We had a reallly nice stay at Lailas Villa, everything was as promised what is not very usual in Egypt also the host Sara was taking so good care of us and answering promptly to any question or request we had. The Villa is in quiet are bit far from Downtown and Marina where most of the services are located. We were 2 adults and 2 kids so we rented 2 quad bikes to move around, that was a really nice way to commute around El Gouna, these were also arranged by Sara. The Villa itself was fully equipped with all you need and bit more, very clean and professionally managed, everything from booking to departure went without any problems. I highly recommend this Villa if you really want to relax and just enjoy your holiday. K
