    Everything. It is the most unique, exotic place I have ever visited. There are only 10 individual rooms set on an island in the middle of the Nile. The food is 5 star. The service is excellent and the views are incredible. Words cannot describe...

    Peace and quiet and the view from the Nile river directly
