Good food, great location, very nice staff, but a bit to expensive. 200 USD Cheaper to book with Booking instead of directly with the hotel.

“Luxury in Nature”
Beautiful location over looking the nile, with stunning views and peaceful sounds of nature. The cottages were private and well maintained with all the basic amenities, comfortable beds and complementary drinks. Their infinity pool was a great place to relax and an even greater spot for pictures. The staff were welcoming and friendly, thanks to Armstrong who helped me redeem my balance. We enjoyed our stay!
