• Miki (5/5): 楽しかったが、マイナス面も何点かあり - スタッフがとてもフレンドリーで楽しめた。 Nubian villageのプライベートツアーも急だったがすぐに手配してくれた。 ・住所が島の名前しか記載されていなかった為、詳しい住所を到着の数時間前から質問していた。でもずっと返信がなかったので不安だった。 ボートマンにそのスタッフの顔写真を見せると彼に連絡してくれ、そのあと彼がボート到着場所まで迎えに来てくれた。 ・最終日に荷物預かりをお願いし承諾してくれたが、ピックアップの時に料金（値段は忘れたが少々高額だった）を請求された。鍵をかけた場所で保管していたわけではなく、ただ放置していただけなのでおかしいと思う。 （無理強いはしてこなかったので結局払わずに済みましたが。） ・トイレ・シャワーの部屋はかなり広かったのですが、シャワーがトイレと同じ部屋で仕切りなども無く不便でした。排水溝もシャワーからかなり遠かったのでなおさら難しさを感じました。 結局同じ島内の他の宿に変えることにしました。
• Dario (8/5): - La familia anfitriona se lleva todos los laureles: son muy amables y atentos en todo momento. Durante los días que estuve, tenía que salir temprano y siempre me preparaban una vianda de desayuno para llevar. La primera noche pregunté si tenían algo para cenar y me prepararon comida típica, muy rica. La tercera noche me invitaron a cenar sin que yo se los pidiera. Hice la visita a Abu Simbel por mi cuenta y dejé todo mi equipaje una noche en la casa sin ningún problema.
• Hdhi (1/5): Look for something else, and not on this island - The owner and their family are friendly and try their best to help - Be careful. This is not a private apartment, which means that the entire apartment is NOT yours. They asked us to keep the main door open because one family member (the owner's brother) would come at night anytime and sleep in one of the bedrooms! He will also wake up in the morning and leave anytime. This was not convenient for us as we missed our privacy. Additionally, this was in contradiction with what was mentioned in the description. - The location is terrible and difficult to find and reach. You must take the boat every time you need to cross and, of course, pay a fee of 10 EGP/person. The people responsible for the boats are trying to take advantage of all the tourists in an unacceptable way. (Free for locals but 10 EGP for foreigners. Not even 1 or 2 EGP but 10 EGP!) We wanted to go to El Nabatat Island from there, a one-minute boat trip. The people managing the boats asked for 500 EGP at first and then gradually decreased their price until it reached 200 EGP, which made us skip the visit. - Be prepared to wake up early on the noise of the school (kids' noise + loudspeakers) - We could not sleep well because of the mosquitos, so be prepared! - Basic/simple breakfast - Not enough towels, and only small towels are available - I highly advise everyone to avoid this island and stay in the main west land where everything is more accessible without much struggle
• Tinnl (8/5): Reasonable and peaceful place to stay - 1) The host is friendly and supportive. I could communicate with them smoothly. 2) I can relax in the quiet, peaceful circumstance with birds chirping. 3) The breakfast is healthy and nicely served. 1) The coil in the matras hit my back (in the cheapest room) , which was fine when I laid on the blancket. 2) It could be convenient if there is a mirror in the room.
• A (10/5): Authentic and pure - We felt at home. True kindness and hospitality of the authentic Nubi culture. We made new friends and became as one family for the two days we were there. Would have liked to stay longer to spend more time with Faisal and his family.
• Michal (10/5): Exceptional - beautiful family, huuuge & tasty breakfast from local farms
• Andrew (9/5): Superb - Great homemade food: I had delicious breakfasts and dinner. This is a family house and well connected within the island itself and beyond. The house itself is simple with lovely Nubian art work. The bedroom, kitchen and bathroom work well. The host is very keen to show you the island and beyond and is very knowledgeable. You need to negotiate the price. All in all great value and authentic Nubian living.
• Divya (10/5): Wonderful - It was a very comfortable stay. Yousra and the family made sure everything was alright and provided. Clean home and a functional kitchen where I cooked. They accompanied me to a shop nearby for me to buy groceries. She was thoughtful to pack me breakfast at midnight when I left for Abu Simbel Temple. The house is on the Elephantine island away from the noise of the main city. It was a wonderful time.
• Axel (10/5): Recommended - Room on the 2nd floor of a Nubian house, which gives you the opportunity to feel some local vibes. You can use the guest kitchen. Downstairs lives a kind family, who are your hosts and can make you breakfast, lunch and diner. Perfectly located in the quiet center of Elephantine. They arranged a taxi from the airport for 500 EGP. I prolonged my stay because i liked it so well, and will definitely revisit
• Dariusz (10/5): Peaceful vibe island guesthouse - I liked the location. Warm welcome from host and his help to organize my night trip to Abu Simbel. I liked peaceful vibe and neighborhood school wake up routine for pupils. Kitchen bathroom and wifi was all I needed. I got nice breakfast and advices what to see and do in Aswan.
