The hosts were extremely hospitable, speaking perfect English, and taking time to meet us. They also offered fruits from their garden plus other delicious foods, refusing any payment. They also helped with shopping locations and ensured we got local prices. Could not have been more helpful.

Everything was perfect! We had a wonderful holiday in Alice and Andrew’s apartment which is very cosy, clean and spacious, good location, has all you need for a long or short stop in Madaba. We were welcomed by Alice and Andrew’s family with open arms, we had a great coffee time and lunch time with this generous family, I’m already missing Alice’s Arabic coffee and traditional cooking😆. Highly recommend for those who want to visit Madaba, your will not experience only a stay, but a local life and culture exchanging. Thanks again to Alice, Andrew, Shadia and Rodina !

Lovely comfortable traditional apartment. Very friendly welcoming family, who provided wonderful welcoming touches and super advice . Access to a garden. Great location ,

The owners were so welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed to feel at home and to have a great experience of Jordan. We felt very welcome and at home. Highly recommend staying here. It’s a place to stay in Madaba- an oasis of calm just a short walk from the main shops, restaurants and sites and a short drive to the airport, great location at the end of our trip around Jordan.

Nothing, all great.

Very convenient location for all the sights of Madaba. Lovely spacious apartment and wonderful to meet and talk to the family. Hosts are very supportive and quick fix any issues, eg how to light the gas heaters! - chilly evenings in December stay. Cosy, private sitting out area axreslnplus in a city apartment.

Nothing everything was great

The hosts were absolutely wonderful. Knowing we were coming with kids, they intentionally went out and bought toys for them to use. The house is quite spacious with 3 bedrooms and another queen sided bed in the living room (2 queen and 3 single beds). The mattress in the master bedroom didn’t suit us, but there were plenty of beds to choose from. We as a couple slept in the living room and were very comfortable. Another bonus is the entire unit has blackout rollers on the windows. It’s greatly located and although we came by car (& used it to drive to the Dead Sea, Mount Nebo, Bethany Beyond the Jordan and other out of town but accessible drives), we walked everywhere with ease in Madaba, which is a great visit. It’s also close to the Amman airport, so we were very glad to end our stay here (after time in Petra and Wadi Rum, it was the perfect comfort after!). We highly recommend this place!

Nothing - we had a perfect stay!

My family of 5 stayed with Alice, Andrew (Baba) and their daughters Shadia and Rodina. We were met with such amazing kindness, generosity and real feeling of warmth from the bottom of their hearts. We absolutely loved our 2 night stay. They adored our kids and couldn’t do more for us. The apartment was very clean and spacious and is actually 3 bedrooms (king, twin and a single with an additional queen bed in the lounge room). We shared a lovely tea and cake with the hosts and learned about Jordan. They are clearly very passionate about Jordan and want everyone to leave loving it. The property is literally 8 mins easy walk to the historical centre where you can see all the churches, ruins and wonderful mosaics.

The apartment was very spacious and very clean. Everything was well kept and organized. The host provided us with some foods which really helped to have something to eat first thing in the morning. This was our initial introduction to Jordan and we hadn't figured out what to buy. The location is within walking distance to the old city and we walked around a lot to see all the archaeological sites and shops. We met the whole family for tea and they spoke excellent English. They are very generous and kind people who offered to help wherever they could. They made us feel welcome right away. They taught us to write our names in Arabic which is a great memento of our stay in Madaba. Our only regret was that we couldn't stay longer.

There wasn't anything that could have been better. We have absolutely no complaints.

Thank you for a wonderful stay. The apartment was spacious and the hosts very welcoming and friendly. We only stayed for one night since we were flying out the next morning, but we would have loved to stay longer and will definitely come back if we are ever in the area.

This place is a lovely oasis in the centre of Madaba. The hosts were very welcoming and hospitable, even leaving us some homemade snacks in the fridge on arrival. The apartment was very well equipped, meticulously clean and very comfortable.

Not a thing

Exceptional experience with this amazing family - warm welcoming includes coffee and sweets with the family in the garden (really very friendly and kind hosts)). Very clean house , The host surprised us with some local stuff to try and were really tasteful,, Here we could find every thing we might need for short - to mid stay - even longer Highly recommended

Exceptional experience

The hosts Alice & Andrew and their daughters Shadia & Rodina were kind enough to provide us with a light breakfast since we arrived in the morning. They ensured to provide us with all possible toiletries and other provisions such that we felt we were at our own house. The location of the property is very convenient to walk to the nearby historic attractions of Madaba City & Jordan. We fell sick on the last 2 days of our trip due to the dinner we had at a very reputed 5 star hotel at the dead sea. The hosts made sure that we received all sorts of medical attention, several trips to the hospital, home delivery of medications, home made food and other provisions. We did not feel as if we had rented out the property, we just felt that we were visiting relatives. Our sincere thanks goes out to Dr Louy who took time away from his short vacation to drive us to the hospital and give us all the possible assistance. Thanks to their entire family who kept checking on our well being even after we returned back to Kuwait. This property and the experience we had would always remain as the best for the rest of our lives. Thank you once again for being the greatest hosts. All the very best to you all.

There was absolutely nothing that we could even think of complaining. Everything was simply great. We just couldn't have asked for more. Though the accommodation can be termed as service apartments, we believe we were given a 7 star facility.

Alice, Andrew and their family greeted us with unbelievable warmth when we arrived … a kind welcome, a cup of coffee in their gorgeous courtyard garden and easy access to what was to us, a giant and comfortable apartment. Alice had even prepared some local, delicious food for us to sample. Shops and the main visiting area of Madaba were just steps away. The wifi was strong and reliable so we were able to send pictures of our kind hosts and relaxing apartment to our friends and family.

The apartment is located in an inner courtyard, lavishly planted with colorful blossoming plants, an Oasis in a lively city, it was spacious and comfortable with everything needed! More important was the experience of staying with Alice and Andrew. It was like staying with good friends or family. We felt very welcomed from the moment we arrived. Alice and Andrew, as well as their two daughters and a son-in-law were always available to answer questions or give us tips as to what we could visit. Or just to exchange ideas on different topics. We felt like we not only saw Jordan but also had the opportunity to get to know the people. Jordanieans are very friendly and hospitable people, very welcoming. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Very kind host, fancy facilities and warm welcoming from host family members. I strongly recommend this apartment if you rent a car and easy access to Madaba. Thank you for everything! Fumika, Xiumin, Midori

Everything was great for us: location in the town, parking, large rooms, bath, kitchen, washingmachine. But best of all are the owners, especially the mother. We didn't feel like tourist but guests. We found food in the fridge, all local, prepared by the owners mother. The second day they offered us homemade stuffed wine leaves (the best I ever had) and zucchini cake (waraq dawali + kosa). Highly recommended!

We got a wonderfully warm welcome. The place was very clean and in a great location. Will def go back if we have the chance!
