Glad to see someone else is on our wavelength Neil !!

I would think the least we should expect would be gold name plates on sunbeds and parasol with attentive member of staff allocated to each owner on arrival to ensure their stay is as pampered and perfect as only they deserve!!

Maybe a masseur by the sunbed just in case? Enough of this we will get into trouble.

Talking of sunbeds, if you have to buy your own, you will probably end up using a padlock and chain for when you are not using it. I had my own umbrella, sunbed and tamr henna windbreak installed on the beach near me but I got so fed up with other people using it from the hotel nearby or moving it to join their friends or people using it that are renting apartments. I lost the little chair. I had cushions tied to the bed but they were always torn until they eventually blew away, the wheels came off and they didn't bother putting them back on. And everyone left all their rubbish under my umbrella. And I even think because I had cushions on one of the security guards was sleeping on it at night and leaving all his fag ends everywhere.

So now I have it padlocked to the windbreak! But that doesn't stop everyone they still turn if back over and use it padlocked even though I have put a private sign and which apartment it belongs to. I wouldn't mind people using it if they had some respect and put it back and removed their rubbish. But I notice in many other areas around the lagoon or around shared pools that everyone has painted their apartment number on and put padlocks and chains around.

Just something else to think about, especially if you are providing your own sunbeds and renting out.

Just for info, my sunbed cost LE700, the umbrella LE700 including setting in concrete and the windbreak (not pictured) LE350.

Think I will go and have a lie on the beach now

Hi Georgina - you have given me something to think about. We are buying an apartment in El Gouna in West Golf which should be ready next year. Where abouts are you? The sun bed issue does seem to be a problem and I can see why you are frustrated. We do not intend to rent ours out and just use it ourselves a few times each year but I won't be happy if when I arrived my sunbeds were damaged - like you say you don't mind them being used if only people would have respect for other peoples property. Out of interest did you get your bed etc. in El Gouna?
