I think you may be right on the pricing strategy now .

Just back from a week and as you say it just gets better every time. There is an impressive new library ,a paintball arena for the kids ,2 or 3 new restaurants ,the most colourful eccentric buses from Pakistan and some new if ineffective road markings ,crossings and stop signs which once the locals are educated about may be of some safety improvement,which are amongst the notable changes since our last visit . I think your description of "charming" in another post is very apt.

We also received an Email last week saying that James Villas have now agreed to advertise private rentals for El Gouna .

We were talking to a couple on the plane who had a place in Hurghada and were upset because their lovely view had been replaced by the brick wall of the new apartment block built very close in front and that their pool didnt get any sun due to the poor design of the building . I didnt get the name of the building though. Thankfully there are none of these worries in El Gouna.

If I am not living out there by next year I will be very disappointed .
