Looking for a unique place to rest on the Nile close to Aswan? We are vegan and eco conscious and the Ayujidda Nubian House may be ideal for you. Quietly tucked away on Philae Island and accessible only by boat, the facility is family run and we really enjoyed the stay. Tamer Darwish is the host and fortunately speaks very good English as our Nubian/Arabic is less than adequate. Tamer was always available to assist by phone or text. The mother/daughter team that tends to the daily operations do not speak very much English but with the use of google translator, we managed to fill in the gaps. The room was clean and comfortable, the food was so very good and plentiful…I have no idea what most of it was, but it was delicious! Plan ahead to ensure the boat is available, and they can arrange cars or whatever you may need. We typically arranged the boat for an early morning departure and then returned for a fantastic meal in the quaint, pillow-laden open-air dining area as we reflected on the day and watched the Nile go by. As we were there during Ramadan just a few weeks ago, one evening as the entire family gathered to break fast, we were graciously invited to join. We enjoyed a great meal and wonderful conversation with a few that spoke English…it felt like we were part of the family. Kind, gentle & giving people, will always remain in our memory. If the absolute opposite of a Hyatt or Holiday Inn is your thing as it is ours, try it.

In a magnificent view overlooking the ships near the old dam, Wanas Guesthouse was entirely pleasurable. The owner was extremely friendly and helpful, I can only recommend this place.

The staff was amazing! Hymen (we called him the Denzel) and THE Manager were very thoughtful and great us with a smile.

It was the most beautiful and charming place we stayed in during our trip to Egypt. We enjoyed this village and the house wholeheartedly. The owner of the house is amazing, she's super caring and attentive of all details. The village itself is the prettiest! We found ourselves in love with this little village just by the river. The rooms are beautiful, colourful, comfortable and super clean. For us, staying here was like a breeze of fresh air and we loved it much.
