Vacation rentals in Esna

Loved my stay here. Really cool and friendly neighbourhood in beautiful Esna. A little difficult to find initially, so: to get there you need to go to the end of Al Mahkama street (in direction away from Nile) and then turn left down Port Said - the hotel is on a side street to your left a minute or two walk down.

we loved the place. the owner put us in touch with the concierge who accompanied us during our stay in the search for taxis, activities and visits. we recommend contacting them before you arrive to pick you up at the airport as the address indicated on the site is not easy to find. Thank you for your hospitality and this great stay.

Ali's place is a little gem. its well away from the tourist trail, you'll be the only tourist in the village 🙂 and for me it was a welcome break from the tourist areas of Cairo and Luxor. its much more relaxed, and you get to see a different side of Egypt and Egyptian hospitality. Ali is a great host, speaks English and other languages, and is very attentive and helpful. i felt at ease, we had deep conversations about many things, which was great and different to other experiences. he helped me find drivers at a good price and who had a great energy. the special treat for me was the food - local cuisine cooked by a family next door who cater for the local community for weddings etc, the food was authentic, plentiful (one order was enough for two meals), and delicious. the apartment I stayed in has only just been opened, and there's some work to do bring it to the same standard as Ali's other place next door, but it had everything I needed to enjoy my stay and I'm very grateful 🙏🏼

Third time at this lovely place. Thank you Danielle, Mohamed, Saber, Ramadan and Walid for a wonderful stay.

I really love the experience of staying on a boat in Isna. Isna is a pretty bustling town, the temple is great there are great welcoming locals here but it was really such a treat to stay at this place. The boat was very nice, the beds comfortable, hot water and electricity available. The deck was nice to watch the birds and river. The host there was very friendly and helpful to us as well, we felt at home here is Isna.

Our stay in Gamandy Eco-Lodge has been very enjoyable. The location is close to Luxor's main attractions, but is also peaceful and quite and gives a great flavor of rural Egypt. We had a full crew of chef plus helpers preparing meals, providing the kids with attractions including bringing rabbits, sheep and a horse for the kids to play with. The accomodation is beautiful and integrates perfectly with local environment including having palm trees inside the rooms and in some of tha bathrooms. This is a perfect choice for families or a group of friends who want to connect, enjoy the outdoors but also be very close to some of the world's most attractive historic sites like valley of the kings and Karnak templte. We spent 4 nights in Gamandy Eco-Lodge and the kids are already asking about our next trip!
