    Amazing boat apartament in a very nice neighbourhood in Cairo. The design and attention to details really make a difference in this apartment and make it a great relaxation place after visiting the busy streets of Cairo. Besides the apartment being awesome, the hosts are very friendly and recommended us great places to eat and visit and also helped us with a very good priced driver service

    Everything, once I figured out how to find it by myself. The breakfast is great, the view is amazing- I love watching the crew practice on the Nile on the morning and even the party boats at night. Zamalek is a nice, safe place for sole female tourists to visit alone.

    Incredible staff very welcoming. The place inside the boat is amazing all in wood just in front of the Nile. Because the house float it can move a bit with some waves but we slept even better rocked by the nile. The bedding was very confortable and the breakfast amazing! It's a truly unique experience in cairo.

    The location of the property is very good. The room is clean and tidy. Excellent value for money! Mohamed, the manager of the property, was super friendly and helpful. Always available for our questions. He organised for us several tours around Cairo: pyramids, mohamed Ali mosque, boat trip on the Nile. Definitely recommend this place for your stay in Cairo :)

    Mohammed met us at the gate and carried our super heavy luggage downstairs to the houseboat. We don’t speak the same language but didn’t have a bit of trouble communicating. That guy is strong! Our room was nice, but that view! Sitting on our balcony directly on the Nile was AMAZING! There was always something going on in the river. It was a fabulous place to sit and soak it in. I’m in Cairo, on the Nile! The location is fantastic and everything is nearby. Uber is wonderful and inexpensive here! Order food. Hang out on balcony.

    This houseboat is amazing at this location. Very large space and clean. The guard is present all day and very helpful and attentive. The view on the river Nile is great. The entrance is more or less hidden, but the owners send you a very clear movie how to find it and how to enter. This hidden location adds to the quality of the location. The breakfast (at extra costs) is amazing. Very well prepared local tastes.
