The staying at Krouma completely regenereting us after the crazy Cairo. The place is a little heaven of earth so peaceful and connected to nature. Definitely one of the most beautiful place ever. You are in an island on the Nile and there are plants and beautiful flowers everywhere. Bathing in the Nile it's lovely. Sherif the owner is a very good soul and they are creating not only a beautiful eco-friendly place for people to stay but they are also involving the community of the village making a music school there for the kids around the area to keep their tradition alive in the new generation. Such a beautiful project!
Also the FOOD IS AMAZING! everything we got was so tasteful and beautifully serve! Portion are very good as long as the price.
Thank you for...
Read moreWe had a most pleasant stay at Krouma, with a group of friends for 4 days. Sherif and the staff were genuine and welcoming and took great care of us all throughout our stay ( organizing boat rides to other islands and taxis ). Sherif even organized a fish dinner for us at Krouma, which was not on the menu , but rather caught that day by the local fisherman. The rooms are very clean and cozy, food was great, service beyond expectations and the island itself was quiet and very chill, with great views of the Nile. Locals seem to come here just for food, which is a great way to mix with the locals , and not feel like you’re in a “tourist bubble”. If you’re looking for a place to stay in Aswan and get a true feel for Nubian culture and hospitality, Krouma...
Read morelovely room with plenty of windows that provide great ventilation, along with a superb view and adorable cats and dog. People are welcoming, atmosphere is extremely relaxing, boneless chicken dish is delicious (note VAT and service fee is over 20% ) juice is however watery.
The location can be hard to find, it's recommended to use the accommodation's transport service (note it costs 300/600 egp per trip)
Recommend this place for travelers who prefer to stay in and relax rather than frequently going out visiting tourist...
