El Gouna is an integrated Red Sea resort town developed by Orascom Development, positioned about 20 km north of Hurghada. The town's employment is dominated by the resort-hospitality operators anchored within the master-planned community — Steigenberger, Movenpick, Sheraton Miramar, Ancient Sands, and the smaller boutique properties — plus the F&B, retail, and marina-services operators serving both residents and the international-tourist economy. El Gouna's calendar of film + music festivals and its year-round watersports schools add distinct seasonal hiring lanes. The town is also a growing base for remote-first professionals and small-business owners, driving a specialised private-education and services economy.
