The lovely hosts Osama & Marta were very caring to us and made our stay quite enjoyable.

Marta and Osama are really lovely. The whole atmosphere is authentic and relaxed. Marta works hard to make sure that visitors have a smooth and comfortable stay- Osama makes it all chill and relaxing. They make a perfect team

Peaceful hillside location on the quiet side of Elephantine overlooking the Botanic Garden island across the river. Lovely hosts. Osama arranged transport and a wonderful fellucca ride. Marta made delicious pasta. We felt well taken care of. Our simple room was very clean and thoughtfully furnished including fridge, electric kettle, and a small kitchen sink.

I missed a shelf in the bathroom for toiletries.

Nice property on Elephantine Island. We enjoyed the view and walking about.

Breakfast was unsatisfactory. Bread was stale, foul was cold and boiled egg was over cooked. Also, the chairs on the veranda could use some cushions. Also, items for purchase, like water were highly over priced, more than a 5 star hotel! A 2 minute walk we could purchase our needs for a fraction of the price.

Wonderful Nile front location on Elephant Island. Excellent local breakfast. Very simple so a bit pricey for what it was. Extra services, ie taxi transport very expensive. Very nice owner. A lot of cats which I liked,but some people might not. I definitely saw a flea in my room.

Steps up from landing very poor and hard to negotiate. Overpriced journey to Airport.

The owner is so kind !

Marta & Osama are the most heartwarming and kind hosts. We loved our 2-night stay, and couldn’t have asked for a better experience on Elephantine Island.

We loved everything about it. The nice friendly and helpful people who own it - Marta and Osama. They were very helpful to show us around the village and to prepare a breakfast box for early morning. We loved their cats and Kiki the dog. Osama, teaching us a few Nubian words. The beautiful building and the amazing view. The cozy room, spotless clean, including linen. Most comfortable bed during our trip to Egypt so far. And a bidet in the bathroom 😲 (thank you Marta). Overall a charming little place in a small Nubian village.

I wish we had booked a longer stay.
