Guest Reviews
- Mehmet sait (10/5): Genel anlamda çok güzeldi. - Tesis sahibi gecikmemize ve saat 4 te oraya varmamiza rağmen bizi karşıladı. İlgisi ve ihtiyaçlarınıza cevap vermesi. Yalniz sivrisinek sıkıntısı yaşadık muhtemelen gündüz pencereleri açık braiktigimiz için bu durum meydana geldi. Şehirdeki seyyar satıcıların çok fahiş fiyatlarla gelen turistlerin kandırmaya calismasi bizi çok rahatsiz. İlk geldiğinizde havaalanı dışında taksiye binin, e drive kullanın, toplu taşıma tekneler var onları kullanmanızı tavsiye ediyorum.
- Kristin (6/5): - Excellent staff, very helpful and polite! Clean place. We couldn't sleep all night because of the huge amount of mosquitos.
- Hugo (9/5): Todo Ok - Nos sentimos cómodos, el dueño muy amable y el lugar a 10 min caminando tenía todo. Tiene un almacén a una cuadra para compras rápidas. El dueño nos recomendó un paseo por los globos que el lo coordino y fue mas barato. Fue increible
- Nadi Lakshmikant (10/5): Overall it’s good to place to stay and they are very good people -
- Vedat (8/5): - Güzeldi genel olarak memnun kaldım
- Franziska (10/5): - We stayed three nights in the Villa Bahri and had a really great stay. Ahmed and his staff are super kind and helpful. We can highly recommend this place.
- ana luiza (10/5): - The apartment is very nice, in a quiet area, it’s at the other side of the river and the public ferry is very closer. Wifi doesn’t work too good unfortunately, but all the rest was very nice, the owner is very friendly also.
- Liam (1/5): Absolutely horrible management and overall experience. Literally scam if you ask me. REFUND ME! - Didn’t even get to see inside the property. Owner wasn’t there when we arrived. Spoke to him on the phone and he said to walk into the property across the road. Did this and apparently because of our “last minute booking” they had organised first us to stay at a different hotel for one night for free. This wasn’t told to us at all when we booked and even when we spoke to him over the phone or through messenges.
We stayed the one night as it was late but,
we didn’t wish to stay here anymore because of this and had requested a refund. He was apologetic and agreed to a refund if booking.com reached out. Spoke to them and they did this. However he hasn’t approved it and hasn’t responded to any further messages or requests.
REFUND OUR MONEY.
- Ingrid (10/5): -
- Elsgawy (8/5): - Staff was amazing welcoming specially momen and the female cleaner. Don't hesitate to book Too much dust in the area
- Bilal (7/5): -
- Mohamed (10/5): Had niet verwacht - Lekker rust netjes mensen
- Joseph (8/5): Great with Exceptional Hospitality - Our experience at this hotel was truly enjoyable, thanks especially to the outstanding hospitality of Ahmed and his team. They were incredibly welcoming and helpful throughout our stay, always ready to assist with a smile — a real highlight of the trip.
Here’s how we rated each aspect:
🧑🤝🧑 Host and Service: 10/10 – Ahmed and his team were exceptional. Their warmth, attentiveness, and genuine care made us feel completely at home.
🌿 Charm of Garden/Pool/Facilities: 10/10 – The outdoor spaces were peaceful, beautifully maintained, and full of character — perfect for relaxing.
🥐 Breakfast: 9/10 – Fresh, generous, and thoughtfully prepared.
💰 Value for Money: 9/10 – Great quality for the proposed price.
📍 Location: 7/10 – The hotel is situated in a quiet rural area, about a 15 to 20-minute walk from the dock where you can catch the ferry to cross to the other side of the Nile. While not central, it offers a peaceful retreat away from the bustle. 🧼 Cleanliness: 5/10 – This was the only aspect that kept us from giving a 9 rating overall. While the beds were clean and comfortable, the kitchen, the WC, and the floor were not well maintained. Cleaning seemed to be done very quickly using only water, and we felt it would benefit from the attention of a professional cleaner.
- David (9/5): -
- Hartmut (7/5): - Kleines, ruhiges, aber ausreichend großes Apartment! Kühlschrank und Kocher sind leider
sehr in die Jahre gekommen (im oberen Ap.) Geschäfte alle sehr dicht!Bäcker und Kaufladen quer über die Strasse! Wäschere im Haus! Gastgeber freundlich und hilfsbereit!
Ferry 10MIn!
Altertümer mit Fahrrad von Mohammed gut erreichar!
Was will man mehr?
- fan (9/5): 非常推荐 - 公寓位置很棒,在尼罗河西岸,离帝王谷等景点非常近,楼下就有餐厅和超市,晚上很安静。到楼顶就能看到日出,也能看到帝王谷的热气球。

- Razan (10/5): - Everything was perfect! The apartment was clean, comfortable, and in a good location. Momen was incredibly kind, helpful, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay. Thank you so much, Momen, for your amazing hospitality — you made our time in Luxor truly special! Highly recommended. Nothing
- fatma gözde (7/5): - konum bilgisi yanlis ! cok zor bulduk geri kalan hersey iyiydi ama mesajlara falan cevap vermiyorlar çok tavsiye etmiyorum
- Wissal (10/5): Very kind stuff - The apartment was next to the valley of the kings and next to the columns of memnone. The apartment is in front of the Kareem restaurant and next to Cleopatra Hotel (important information to find the apartment) the staff was really nice especially Moemen, he was very kind and available for anything and anytime. We definitely had a good time thanks to the nice people who work and live there !
- Türker (10/5): Olağanüstü - Muhteşem tertemiz bir ev en güzel iki günümü bu evde geçirdim. Çevresi tamamen güvenilir insanlarla dolu. Luksorun west bank bölgesinde sakin temiz güzel ancak yine de merkeze yakın. Moa çok yardımcı oldu hemen karşısındaki Kareem otelde kahvaltımı yaptım mısır’da yaptığım en iyi kahvaltı oldu. Çok teşekkür ederim ayrıca evden geç çıkmama izin verdiler. Tekrar görüşmek üzere.
- Elisabeth (8/5): Ruhige Oase in ländlicher Umgebung, nah zur Altstadt und den Sehenswürdigkeiten - Wir haben als Familie 3 Nächte in der Garten-Wohnung übernachtet. Gemütliche, gut ausgestattete Ferienwohnung mit 2 klimatisierten Schlafzimmern.
Ruhige Lage am Westufer des Nils, dörfliche Atmosphäre. Zur Nilfähre kommt man in 20 Min zu Fuß oder in 5 Min mit dem Auto. Ahmed und seine Familie waren immer bereit, uns zu fahren (zu fairen Preisen).
Sehr leckeres lokales Frühstück, im Garten serviert.
Der Gastgeber Ahmed hat uns empfangen und war immer per Handy erreichbar. Er und seine Familie haben uns viel über die Sehenswürdigkeiten Luxors erzählt und bei allen Fragen geholfen. Ahmed organisiert auch Ausflüge aller Art für Gäste - bei Sommerhitze mit kleinen Kindern konnten wir das leider kaum nutzen. Dafür haben wir den kleinen Pool und den ruhigen Garten umso mehr genossen. Der Stadtteil ist sehr dörflich, es gibt nur kleine Lebensmittelläden, Restaurants etc. gibt es erst am Nilufer.
- JING (10/5): - 房间非常大,有客厅沙发阳台,单层自己住,安静
- xing (10/5): -
- Yaël (2/5): - Rien Tout
Le lieu était assez loin de la ville , l'emplacement très mal placé, on a eu du mal à trouver avec le taxi.. l'appartement était sale la douche et le pommeau de douche était cassé, le frigo noir de chez noir il y avait une casserole toute dégueulasse dans le congel avec de l'eau dedans, il y avait des bestioles dans l'appartement pas de climatisation et quand on arrive et qu'on réserve..... À l'arrivée il est venu nous demander plus d'argent alors que s'il y avait un problème on doit passer par booking...
On n'a pas pris de photos car il nous a remboursé nous sommes partis immédiatement on n'a pas pris de photos car il nous a remboursé on s'est disputé pour qu'on puisse partir immédiatement la condition était qu'on ne prenne pas de photos sinon on était pas remboursé... On a dû perdre que la commission de booking... Mais ma fille a réussi quand même apprendre des photos et on prévient quand même le site pour les futurs voyageurs car vraiment dormir dans des conditions comme ça c'est pas possible même si le prix est très correct mais forcément si il y a pas d'entretien ça peut être que correct... Le prix est tellement correct qu'après il demande plus...
- Alisha (10/5): Great for Solo Travellers - Very friendly host, people in the neighborhood are very helpful and kind. The food was excellent at Kareem Reaturant right opposite the apartment. Kareem is also very friendly and kind. The stay was comfortable and I totally recommend it if you're a solo traveller. No microwave.
- Yahye (10/5): Mon séjour à Louxor - Nous avons passé un séjour inoubliable à la Villa Bahri à Louxor.
L’emplacement est tout simplement idéal : située sur la rive ouest, la villa se trouve à quelques minutes seulement des plus importants sites archéologiques de Louxor, comme la Vallée des Rois, le temple de Medinet Habou ou encore les colosses de Memnon. Un vrai privilège pour les amateurs d’histoire !
L’accueil de Monsieur Ahmed, ainsi que du personnel mis à notre disposition, a été exceptionnel. Leur professionnalisme sans faille, leur disponibilité et leur gentillesse ont grandement contribué à la réussite de notre séjour.
Ils ont toujours été présents pour répondre à nos besoins, tout en restant discrets et respectueux.
La villa est très propre, confortable et très bien entretenue. Nous recommandons chaleureusement la Villa Bahri à tous ceux qui souhaitent découvrir Louxor dans les meilleures conditions.
- Off_road (10/5): - 老板和员工都十分热情,老板亲自开车带我去办电话卡,我们在这里住了三天,厨师Taca准备了丰盛的早餐。民宿有个小游泳池,院子里有芒果树,结有芒果,我们住的是一层的1套房间,大概有七八十平米房,有两间卧室可以住四个人,厨房设施冰箱都是完备的 WIFI有时不太畅通,但这不是民宿老板的错,埃及的网络都不是太好
- HAN HUA (8/5): 整體性價比還能接受 - 離渡船很近,附近購買東西也方便。 乾淨程度有點糟,很多灰塵。冷氣只在房間 ,所以你根本無法待在公寓的其他地方,否則會熱死。
- Ábel (4/5): Disappointing -
- Mohammed (9/5): Superb - Really good you own privacy
- Hong (9/5): Superb - Located on the west coast, the environment is quiet, the room is comfortable, the facilities are complete, and the communication with the owner via WhatsApp is smooth. Living here is a good choice It would be better if there is WiFi
- Mohamed (10/5): Good place - Place was very easy to find only 6 min walking from ferry. Place was clean and cozy. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Apartment has all facilities Nothing
- Katherine (8/5): Very good -
- Mau (10/5): Good price - It is about 5min walk to the pier and close to the valley of kings and queens. The price is good and you can have the whole apartment.
- Ricky (8/5): Very Comfortable Stay - The apartment was very well located in a quite part of Luxor and gives you feel of rural Egypt and a short walk to river Nile, which was great ! It was clean and very comfortable, specially the beds. The host is a very helpful man. No provision of soap in the bathroom and also no toilet roll provided. Egypt in general is very dusty !
- Uzcátegui (10/5): A comfortable and enjoyable stay. Highly recommend it! - We had a great stay at Villa Bahri. The staff was amazing, especially Taha who was very helpful and a fantastic cook. He even offered to take us on a calèche tour.
The place is well located in a quiet neighborhood, just a 15-minute walk to the ferry, with mini markets nearby. After a day of sightseeing, the pool was perfect for cooling off and relaxing.
- Susanne (10/5): For this price 10/10 - Location: perfect in quiet area supermarket across door
Appartment: clean, spacious, couch and television, airco in bedroom, balcony, basic kitchen and bathroom, wifi, beds were really comfortable en good pillows!
Host: nice and polite want to help you whatever you need
For this price 10/10 !!
- Damla (10/5): Exceptional - the costumers were really nice, they helped us for too many things! from turkey!! 🙏🙏
- Natalia (10/5): Exceptional - Thanks to the people who made previous reviews! We followed their recommendation and were not disappointed. The place is spacious and green. Ahmed is a kind and reliable person.
- Grace (10/5): Exceptional - I liked everything. The apartment is clean and the beds are super comfortable. Everything looked new. The apartment is spacious, has a large fridge, pots, pans and cutlery. The wifi works fine. I liked the hospitality of Mr. Kareem, the host. He waited for me at the property for hours late in the evening because my bus was late. He did everything he could to make me feel welcomed and safe. Everything was just perfect. The location is also good, in a quiet small road of Luxor West Bank but at a walking distance from the public ferry (they only charge 15 Egyptian pounds for foreigners one way to reach the East bank). Also a couple of minutes by foot from the main road where there are restaurants, bars and shops. I wanted to extend my stay but it was fully booked. Thank you Mr Kareem from my wonderful stay! The fact that I could not stay longer!
- Michel (8/5): Nice place, comfortable bed. - Good location, nice bed, hot water, all you need.
- Cindy (9/5): Superb - Nice location, Everything is convenient. Owner is helpful. Place is clean. 24 hours hot water. Price is good. Worth this price
- Albatoul (10/5): Exceptional - My stay was a truly unique experience in such an aesthetic and peaceful place, The apartment was spacious and beautifully designed, The staff were incredibly supportive and friendly, and Mr. Ahmed, the owner, was exceptionally helpful, He arranged our trips and personally took us to the boat every time we wanted to go to the east side, which made everything so convenient, if you’re looking for a different experience surrounded by kind and generous people, I highly recommend staying here and don’t miss the chance to go with Taha in the afternoon for a ride around the city with his donkey it was such a memorable experience!
- Abdullah (6/5): Pleasant - The bathroom was unclean, and had clearly not been washed in a while. The lock on the bathroom was also broken, and the door was quite stiff - took some effort to open & close.
- Khusbu (10/5): Comfortable place with friendly Host - The apartment was very cozy. Friendly and safe neighborhood. Also, there are possibilities of amenities shopping nearby. Most of the visiting sites and Nile River are near to the place. Kareem is a super host. He helped us with any issues
or even requests we had.It felt more like visiting a family rather than staying in a hotel. Kareem helped us see Luxor as a local person and not like tourists. He was kind and energetic. I hope to come back again just to stay in this place.
- Joelie (9/5): Feels Like Home at West Bank - Very spacious, comfortable and with beautiful view of sunrise and hot air balloon in the morning. Have a good sleep here as it is located at neighbourhood which is quiet at night. Very helpful staffs (young boys) and the owner is very responsive and attentive. Very close to all the tourist spots at West Bank. A good choice to stay in Luxor. To provide heater and hair dryer.
- Ivancondric (10/5): Deffinetly comeing again - Cleen place,good owner, has everything you need Wifi can be faster
- Alexander (10/5): Exceptional -
- Fleming (10/5): Exceptional - Relaxing tranquil manicured garden. Amazing Barbeque and clay oven cooked dinners. A bath!!! Ahmed is a professional who knows what his guests want. He will arrange expeditions such as the balloon flight or a driver. We found an Egyptian family who we will alwaus return to in Luxor Leaving 🥲
- Zefir (10/5): Exceptional - Huge apartment in quiet area .The owner is a very nice person .Thanks for everything!
- Dawid (10/5): Perfect stay in Luxor! - Extremely helpful host Ahmed! Picked us up from the river cruise, helped organise the day in Luxor, suggested wonderful restaurant to have the most egiptian meal we had in whole Egypt. And also brought us to the papyrus manufacture which was truly unique experience. We regretted not using his genuine help in organising hot air balloon flight but we had it planned few days before and could not change plans. With Ahmed's help it would definitely be even better experience. His knowledge about the ancient Egipt is remarkable!
And the villa itself - whole apartment for our family, with a pool which was a gem for our children (and thus for us!), great view from the terrace (sunset view on the Hatshepsut temple!), located in a quiet part of the city, just 10 minutes from the ferry to the city centre. We were extremely sorry for staying just one night in Ahmed's place. A week there wouldn't be enough!
- Song (1/5): Horrible - This place is really dirty. I don’t know. Where is the 9 coming from? Is nobody talking to the truth now actually it’s nice apartment.But need do cleaning and I didn’t took off my clothes because when I went to sleep the bed sheets make me itchy And I couldn’t sleep really really bad I don’t like here
- Margarita (10/5): Exceptional -
- Balamurugan (8/5): Very good -
- Jama (10/5): enjoyed my stay the place spacious and clean I would recommend - it’s close to city centre, valley of the kings and queens
- Vincent (8/5): It was a very unique experience and I would stay here again. - Great owner and staff. Very respectful and professional. Delicious traditional breakfast in the morning. Clean air conditioned room. Secure building. Swimming pool. Property is located in what feels like a small village where residents wear traditional clothing and everyone is friendly.
- Chris (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent Location with an amazing team...feels like staying Home 👍
- Stefany (9/5): Pleasant and nice - Host was very very nice and kind. Always trying to help us with any requests.
- Rachel (9/5): Superb - Locations was handy to the Valley of the Kings and felt safe, the pool was great for when it was too hot to go exploring and the apartments were big and spacious.
- Dan (10/5): Lovely stay in Luxor, thank you. - We checked in quite late around 2-3am due to our flight, Ahmed (the owner) and Mohammed were very accommodating and kept in contact with us the whole time. The room was very clean. The bathroom and kitchen you can tell was a little older so could do with a little updating but still sufficient for our stay.
The swimming pool was nice and well maintained, it is quite deep though if you can not swim, I’m 5ft1 and standing wise I could only stand in half the pool, the rest is for swimming. I felt very comfortable wearing swimming clothes as a woman, there was no judgement and no staring. There is a communal washing machine.
The garden was lovely, lots of birds come in and out.
Nice and quiet location.
There is a small shop at the top of the road, less than 1 min walk away where you can pick up little bits and pieces like water, crisps, instant noodles. There’s also a restaurant by that shop as well where you can get cooked food.
Ahmed drove us around to some of the sites and gave us recommendations on what to see and what not to see. The bathroom and kitchen was a little dated but was sufficient. There was on air con in the bedroom.
- Sefer (10/5): Exceptional - Kareem is one of the best people I know. What a great friend. He tries to help as much as he can. He tries to do his best even in small problems. My dear friend, I am very glad to meet you. hope we meet again
- 姜小宇 (8/5): Very good - No shampoo and shower gel. But the owner gave me a soap after I asked it. One of the quilt is wet. The owner explained he was in a rush to clean the room.
- Gythrie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Mina (10/5): Exceptional - They are very kindly with us like our family and everything is clean especially Mr Ahmed the owner and abo alhool his brother they taking care about everything i advise who will be going to luxor to talking this place villa bahri because really they are special in this carrier 👍👍👍💯❌💯💥thanks all for everything and we will come again soon 💚
- Kacper (9/5): Superb - Great service, thank you for early check in The internet could be better
- Andrew (10/5): Kareem met me and explained everything to me about his apartment and the area and offered to take ca - I made my own breakfast,
The location was perfect for both amenities and places of interest All was perfect
- Carlos (10/5): Exceptional - The owner, Kareem, is the best! He is super kind and friendly, and will take care of everything you need. Best regards.
- Sun (10/5): Great. - Very nice place and warm landlord. Location is good, 5 mins walk to the ferry, where you can go to the east bank by public boat. Besides, the apartment is big, clean and cheap, the best choice for family tour. Nope
- Adelin (10/5): Exceptional - Everithing was amazing! Kareem is very nice people.
- Zoltán (10/5): Very good and comfortable. I would stay here next time... - The owner is very friendly and helpful. Big rooms and a nice garden with an orange tree that you can eat from. The view from the roof is amazing, I recommend the top floor to everyone!
All important things are nearby, the neighborhood is safe.
- Hend (9/5): Superb -
- Marek (10/5): I recommend - Well located whole apartment, near road to Temple and Tombs. Lot of stores and restaurants near. Excellent for families. Owner took care of us very well. As nights in Luxor may be cold in winter he gave us heater to heat the rooms.
- Ahmed (9/5): Great host,very helpful staff;) - The host and the staff were so friendly and helpful, we had great time.
The location of the villa was great just 15 mintues ride to hatchipsout and valley of the kings and the host helped us to find a driver ( which I highly recommend because it's kinda impossible to find Uber or taxi in Luxor .
The villa has very nice garden and cozy pool with shower room and toliet too .we got free mangoes that my daughter and my wife said that was the best they ever had..
I highly recommend the villa to all the travellers. It was hard to get a taxi but it's ok cause the host helped us to find cars and tuk tuk also .
- Nada (10/5): Place to relax and enjoy - I stayed at Villa Bahri for the third time, and I don't think I will ever search for another accommodation in Luxor. When I booked this time, our amazing host Ahmed messaged me immediately, offering us to pick us up from the bus station. The feeling when we met again was like if we were family. There is no breakfast option in Villa Bahri, but Ahmed was ready to provide amazing falafel for us every morning.
Ahmed surprised us with the news that he is now a certified Tour Guide, and we used his service happily. His knowledge and way of presenting the facts from the ancient Egyptian history is excellent. Our host also helped in organizing a hot balloon trip for a very good price with no hassle.
The location of the property is in the West Bank, not too close and not too far away from the Nile river. It is easy to take a boat and go to the East Bank. All the main attractions are near and it's easy to reach them either by bicycle or by taxi. The apartment in the ground floor is very spacious, and so handy for using the amazing refreshing swimming pool. The garden of the property is beautiful, green, full of shaded areas where you can chill and enjoy after long and hot days wondering around different tourist sites.
Specially nice is a smell of clean bedsheets and pillowcases. We slept so well with the windows opened, and waking up with the sound of birds.
We also liked a nearby restaurant Wolf with an amazing food (big yummy portions) - 2 minutes walk. I can not think of anything that I did not like. Maybe few more coffee mugs?
- Nasr (9/5): Superb -
- Simon (9/5): Relaxing place in an authentic part of town - A spacious and bright apartment with relaxing gardens and swimming pool. The Villa offers the basics for a night. The beds are clean and comfortable. And the pool is great for a quick cool off after a few hours in The Valley of the Kings/Queens.
The villa is located on a quiet street amongst other residential buildings. It was lovely to walk down the road and see the locals. ie children playing, man selling fresh fruit from the back off his motorbike… there is a fantastic restaurant just round the corner. The Wolf Restaurant serves authentic and truly delicious meals. A must try if you’re staying at the Villa.
Omar, the owner is very friendly and a knowledgable Egyptologist/tour guide. He helped us organise a tour around the highlights of Luxor. As a results we had plenty of time to explore and admire the best sights of Luxor. the cleanliness
- Hans (10/5): - Here on the West Bank you are truly surrounded by Egyptian culture and it's friendliness. At the Villa Bahri you immediately feel like you are part of a family. Ahmed was our personal tour guide to all the sites around Luxor for the whole week stay. He left nothing to chance from pick-up to drop off at the Airport. We are happy to have found this place. Thank you Ahmed.

- David (8/5): relaxing friendly West Bank option with a pool - beautiful outside gardens front and back and spaces to relax and of course a pool that was welcome as temperatures hit 30 degrees. let’s not forget a very warm welcome from all the staff Perhaps the kitchen area could benefit from an upgrade / modernisation.. l prefer to eat out for short stays anyway so wasn’t really a problem for me.
- Henna (10/5): Pick Villla Bahri! - Excellent property, spacious and clean. Close to amenities and the local people were super friendly and social. The host,Ahmed, was really helpful and accommodating and super knowledgeable about the local historical sites. Ahmed took the time to make our experience memorable and fun. 10/10 would recommend! No complaints!
- Ehab (10/5): Exceptional -
- Marcia (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kamal (10/5): Exceptional - From arrival to departure our stay with Ahmed at Villa Bahri was exceptional. The apartment was very spacious and the backyard was like a little Oasis. Ahmed is an amazing host, going out of his way to make sure we have a great experience especially with our 18 month daughter. Hope to visit again soon. Nothing. All is perfect.
- Maryse (9/5): Superb - We really liked the area, it's far from downtown but the people were so incredibly friendly. You'll need to take a small boat across, but we really enjoyed the West coast. Staff was friendly, and there's an amazing view from the sitting area on the top floor. The garden is also beautiful. The pool is pretty to look at but very cold.
- Patricia (10/5): 10/10 Exceptional - We had an exceptionally wonderful stay at Villa Bahri Luxor! Ahmed and his staff took very good care of us and made us feel at home from the outset. The apartment was very comfortable, spacious and well equipped. The garden was lovely and the pool looked very inviting. Listening to the birds on our balcony every morning was magical! Ahmed is an outstanding tour guide and comes very highly recommended! Our stay at Villa Bahri Luxor and West Bank tours with Ahmed are the highlights of our trip to Egypt. We'd definitely love to stay here again!
- Luca (10/5): Great stay in Luxor west bank. - We've been 3 weeks in the big studio rooftop with a private great terrace, mountain and Nile view.
Fully furnished, clean and tidy.
Enjoying the pool, singing birds and sunny.
Exceptional staff : manager & guide Ahmed and all the employees. Everything was just perfect.
Thanks to everyone.
- James (10/5): Excellent villa + great host - Excellent stay - it was the best place we stayed at during our 2-week holiday. The villa is fantastic, very spacious, comfortable bed, nice bathroom, kitchen, 2 balconies, and the pool + garden area is very relaxing.
On top of this the host (Ahmed) and his team (Mohammed and co.) were great. They are super friendly and helpful and really made the stay exceed any expectations.
Ahmed also offers a great tour of all things 'Ancient Egypt' in Luxor (Valley of the Kings, Karnak + Luxor temple, + much more). He is very knowledgeable and is an exceptional tour guide.
Thank you Ahmed, Mohammed and Co. for making our stay so good. We will definitely be returning to Villa Bahri!
- Thérèse (9/5): Great place, great people. - The kindness of the hosts, the quality of the facilities. Maybe some mugs and teatowels.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Homely, peaceful and good value for money. From the moment we were picked up from the airport to the moment we were dropped off we were felt relaxed and welcomed by our host Ahmed. Nothing was too much for him. From changing money to buying beer for us! (He likes a beer or a whiskey too!) The West bank is so different to the east bank in a good way. The 5 minute walk down the lane to the ferry point and restaurants is safe day and night.the locals are so friendly and seeing 'real' Egypt. We loved every minute of our holiday and the cream on top of the cake was staying at Villa Bahri.
