    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 everything Bianca & Federico

    Not super easy to reach because it's inside a small nubian village, but still worth it for what it offer the location it self.

    Little piece of paradise in Assuan. Lovely place and very beautiful structure to immerse yourself in nature. For me the best spot to swim and enjoy nile river without noisiness of the city. The meals are very good quality and affordables. Also staff is very kind and friendly. For sure i recomend to stay here!

    In the heart of the Nile cataracts

    It's a beautiful location in the heart of the first cataract however it's tricky to get in and out after 10 pm as one has to cross the camp with a speed boat. Not too bad if you prefer a laid back nightlife.

    A Very warm welcome from Moshen and team. The room was extremely clean and neat with clean linen. Very beautiful authentic Nubian architecture and very well decorated rooms. It was great to sit in the restaurant area especially at night with the ambient lighting from the Nubian lanterns. Also the lighting of the rocky boulders towering above the camp forms an amazing backdrop at night. Breakfast was not included however it was exceptional and worth the additional cost. Good portions, very fresh and delicious 😋. It was also great to enjoy the kayaks at a discounted price in the fresh cool waters at the cataracts and also provided a lovely location for a swim in the Nile. Can also easily access the Nubian and elephantine Island by boat.

    There were some communication misunderstandings, but we solved them, as people working in this place are very kind and decent. Google translate was also helpful :)

    Amazing placement far from noise, with great biodiversity We could enjoy peaceful resort-like stay with swimming in Nile, eating local, admiring the flora and fauna. Many species live on the island 🏝️ We got help in organizing our trips to Philae and Kom Ombo, Krouma also offers many different tour packs.

    important to book your pick up from the airport as the island can be accessed after a 10min dirt road to get to the boat to cross the river. The food quality was amazing, though its a small kitchen so thing take time, consider ordering in advance. Would recommend the hotel to reduce the amount of option, one or 2 plate of the day would be enough. Everything we tried was good, beat food we had in egypt

    Amazing location, on a small virgin island facing the river. Super quiet at night, beautiful gardens to hang out. Our kids loved exploring the island with goats wandering around. Small paradise 15min aeay from busy aswan. Short boat ride from nubian village. Super easy to organize day tour from one day to another. Very friendly staff

    Krouma Eco Lodge is a special place in a wonderful enviroment. The rooms are very basic, which I liked. Very peaceful and with an extremely nice staff. They are doing a great job with the garden and the food was very nice. Just keep in mind that you are on a island, so your movements are somewhat restricted, although the staff can organize you any kind of boattrip in the beautiful Cataract Area. As a woman who travels on her own, I felt safe.

    Our stay at Krouma Ecolodge was truly perfect in every way - the island feels like a little piece of paradise and is the perfect place to relax, enjoy the nature with swims in the Nile and beautiful sunsets, and to discover Aswan and surrounding Nubian villages. The team of Krouma is so so lovely and made our stay truly unforgettable. The room is spacious, clean, and comfortable and the food is fresh and delicious. We went kayaking and swimming and enjoyed time on the island. We would recommend Krouma to anyone who seeks peace and calmness and a unique experience in Egypt.

    Sometimes the taxi drivers made problems with driving to where the boat leaves because the roads are a bit bad. But the manager can call a TukTuk for you to the main road for 20 EGP (about 10 minutes).

    We stayed 4 nights in one of the cabins in Krouma Camp and enjoyed it a lot. The atmosphere is very relaxed (perfect after hectic Cairo) and the nature is beautiful there. You can even swim in the Nile - a must do (everyone tells you: don't swim in the Nile but we swam there everyday and we didn't have any problems, just try it but be aware, it's really cold but so refreshing). It is located on an island and you need a boat to go to the mainland (2 minutes) but it always worked very well. The food was very delicious. The vision of the owners is to teach people about Nubian culture so that it won't get forgotten. One of them spent some evenings talking to us about Nubian culture. Esra, one of the owners, speaks English very well and sometimes translated for us. We booked a tour to Abu Simbel with them and everything worked well. Best hotel concerning the atmosphere and for everybody who seeks something different and natural.

    I stayed in may at krouma camp and eco lodge in Aswan, and it was absolutely amazing! The people there were incredibly friendly and welcoming, making me feel right at home. The scenery was pure magic, with the stunning Nile River and breathtaking desert views. It was a truly enchanting experience that I'll never forget. If you're looking for a place where hospitality meets natural beauty, this eco lodge in Aswan is a must-visit!

    The drive to the location is quiet challenging, access to the ferry boat is steep, OK for younger travellers, less so for the age challenged.

    Leisurely breakfast, excellent coffee, location very quiet (apart from the Imams!), small number of customers meant the Kamp itself was very quiet.

    Everything was great at Krouma Camp,- the friendliness, the food and the spectacular nature. It felt like paradise to us. Seheil is a bit off the beaten track, but yet not far from Aswan,- and very much according to our taste. We like nature, peace & calm. From Seheil you can easily find a boat which takes you to various locations, such as Elephantine island which was amazing.

    The cats are a bit annoying when trying to eat (we have cat allergies in our family). Also, breakfast is served quite late so tricky if you want an early start.

    Loved the island location for a relaxing break. Comfortable and clean huts.
