Georgina,

Great post. We have just bought a villa in El Gouna and hope to move in at the end of this month (fingers crossed).
I was especially interested in the postal service in El Gouna. Have you had any problems with mail from abroad? We were going to use the Royal Mail redirection service but we are unsure about the correct address to use. Would it be: house number, area in El Gouna, El Gouna, Hurghada, Egypt or is there something else we should know? Where is the post office in El Gouna and do we just go in and tell them we have arrived?

Thanks,
Margaret
