Everything! I was looked after so so well. Early trip to Abu Simbel, they arranged a boat for me to cross the river, without asking the gave me a packed breakfast and made me lunch, a really good lunch. On the day of check out I had a late night train and I was allowed to stay until the train arrived. This place is the best I've been at in Eygpt! Highly recommend! Thank you all so much!

Everything was perfect.

The staff are awesome, always willing to help, they set up an early breakfast for me on days I went out early and were always ready to assist with logistics. The location is epic. The Vibe is great.

This is a beautiful guest house with an incredible view of the Nile from the rooftop. The family that owns it is warm and hospitable and willing to help with anything you need. They serve a huge, full breakfast each day that is really yummy. I highly recommend this place.

Cozy accommodation with a very kind family. Doha and Mohammad went the extra mile for us to enjoy our stay. Local decor and breakfast on an amazing roof terrace did the rest. Highly recommendable!

Everything was absolutely perfect. The view of the Nile from the hotel was breathtaking. Getting to the island was a breeze—just cross the mainland on the ferry, and the property is conveniently located just moments from the ferry dock.

We wanted something authentic and inexpensive. The guest house made up for it. It is very close to the public ferry. Staff very helpful. If you want to stay on Elefantina Island, I recommend staying here.

A apreciat · This was an excellent accommodation, and the value for money could not have been higher. The host(s) were always available downstairs if we needed something. The breakfast was amazing and the view from the terrace could not be beat. The house is also very close to the public ferry coming from the East Bank.

This place exceeded our expectations! We loved everything about it ! First of all, it's on a cute, quiet island 2 minutes by ferry (only 10 egyptian pounds/20 cents). We booked the rooftop flat which had everything we needed. The view over the Nile river is simply priceless ! The location, the view, the flat, the breakfast, the price and especially the owners, made our experience unforgettable! Plus, Doha helped us with all our tours (Abu simbel, boat rides, jabal abou el hawa, etc) at the best price. We cannot thank this family enough for the amazing 3 days we spent in Aswan and we're definitely coming back !

The plug points are very awkwardly positioned.

We got a whole apartment with a kitchen and lounge area. I was able to use the washing machine which was a bonus! The WiFi was extremely good. The breakfast was ample and served in our room in the morning. It is close to shops and restaurants

Gamal and his family were very welcoming and helpful. He helped us with arrangements for a 4am boat trip back to Aswan and came with us at 4am to the harbour, which is a very short walk from the guest house. It was no hassle at all to travel over to the island and we are happy with our choice

The family were wonderful and very accomodating! the location is very peaceful and they were able to help us with getting to Abu simbel. On arrival the family offered us a lovely mango juice on the house and went above and beyond by also providing excellent breakfast, and a breakfast box for the abu simbel trek - Internet is surprisingly fast and the terrace had a great atmosphere + view!

Wonderful place! Very comfortable. Loved the high domed ceilings. I would have stayed longer if we had the time. The Nubian Island and culture were out favorite part of Egypt.

The kitchen isn't very well-furnished and the apartment is a little bit too dark for our liking.

The spacious apartment on the top floor, the terrace with a beautiful view on the Nile River, the kindness of the family who hosted us: they organized for us a daily trip to Abu Simbel and the transfer by minivan to Luxor and everything was perfect. The guest house is located on Elefantina's island, a great location far from the noises of the city but located near many good restaurants.

Everything very nice nothing to observe

Doha, the host, was very attentive and guided us to reach the accommodation safely. She even makes sure to coordinate transportation in the early morning for us. She offered us a typical breakfast which added value to the experience. In adition, the terrace area was very cozy and inspired by typical designs of the area and culture..

Its location could be formally indicated as we couldn’t find its name written on any sign. Note that every trip to or from the island on the ferry will be charged 10EGP.

Friendly team, beautiful and peaceful view from the terrace. We had the family apartment at the last floor and it was perfect.
