Vacation rentals in Philae

Marta and Osama are very friendly hosts. They make sure you feel right at home in their place. The room was very clean and spacious. They provide a traditional breakfast for free every morning, which we really enjoyed. Their place is located in a peaceful area. It was easy and cheap to get the ferry back and forth to the main land (since the Airbnb is located on an island). They have a rooftop that has great views! Overall, we were very happy with our stay.

We spent 3 magical nights at Tamer's. The place is clean, the hosts welcoming. We had our dinners on site, the cuisine is local and delicious, the typical Egyptian breakfast is perfect. Tamer organized a day for us in Abu Simbel and Aswan and then the transfer to Luxor. The driver was professional and very kind and the vehicle was impeccable. Bonus for the recommended seafood restaurant in Abu Simbel. We also went to Philae by boat. If you are a nature lover, enjoy peace and quiet and want a simple and local experience then go for it.

The only luxury apartment found in Aswan. Arriving in the evening at 11 p.m., the host managed to prepare a day for Abu Simbel the next day for 6 a.m. Recommended!

Hi, Pros: The apartment is at a very good location facing the Nile River. Nice Balcony with cozy view..walkable distance to Market and Eatery. Lively place with a river front. The building has a security guard all the time. The owner of the apartment Monty is very responsive and friendly. He allowed us an early check in without any extra charge. We had an issue of power cut but he came within 10 mins of calling him and fixed it. Cons: The only issue we found was in one of the bathroom, the commode seat was broken and in another one the jet spary was not working. We were having early trips so we did not bother at that time calling Monty but could have been easily fixed if we would have let Monty know.

I think this place was the best hotel we experienced throughout our Egypt round trip. Cozy, comfortable beds and pillows, awesome family cooked meals and friendly staff. The place and the view are peaceful and relaxing. If you’re looking for a break of the Egyptian hustle, this is the perfect location to stay. Thank you Tamer for being a great host!

We had a great time Tamer’s Airbnb! The location was quiet, peaceful and secluded. There are many areas to relax and enjoy the surroundings. Tamer was proactive at suggesting and organising plans for us to do. A big thank you to Reem and her friends who cooked us delicious food and made us feel at home. Overall all we highly recommend coming to stay here on Heissa Island!

The accommodation was absolutely beautiful, with great attention to detail and interior design that perfectly reflects the local character and charm of the area. The view from the rooms was stunning, and the shared space was ideal for relaxing and taking in the serene surroundings. The staff was friendly and helpful. Every morning we enjoyed a delicious breakfast that included traditional local dishes. Our host was exceptionally accommodating, always available to assist and helped us plan excursions to nearby sightseeing spots. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful, aesthetically pleasing, and spotless stay in Aswan.

The apartment is located in a great location, next to the railway station and the SuperJet bus station. Self-check-in using a code box with a key. The room has a wardrobe with 8 hangers, a table, a bedside table, a balcony with clotheslines and clothespins. The kitchen has everything for cooking. The spoons and forks are very small. There is hot water and liquid soap in the bathroom. The entrance hall is huge with a table and two sofas. The electrical outlets next to the bed are worn out, and there is poor contact with the plugs. The balcony goes to local bus station, so it's quite noisy during the day. It's quiet at night. There is also a tourist street with a market nearby. You can buy koshari and fruit juices there. The Nile riverside promenade is also nearby. I was very pleased with my stay in this apartment. The cleanliness is perfect. The host responds to messages very quickly and gave me some tips on visiting Aswan.
