“We had a most enjoyable stay.”

“Special memories created”
+The staff at King Mina were very friendly & helpful. Any activities or transfers that we arranged through them were very good value & went smoothly. There was some construction being carried out next door, but on the whole, the location is quiet & the views from our terrace were superb. We were very glad we decided to stay on this side of the island & not at the end nearer the public ferry. There are numerous restaurants very close by & we especially recommend the closest one, Nuba Waidi restaurant & cafe. We were sad when our time staying at King Mina was over & wish we could have stayed there for even more days
−There were a few minor niggles, but nothing that spoiled our stay & when in Egypt it's better not to expect perfection & go with the flow

“Excellent customer service with a decent home stay.”
+The stellar aspect of this property was the service from Baky who went above and beyond with organizing boat pick ups, a trip to the Nubian village and the beach, even accompanying me to the best restaurants on the island. The room was simple, but did have air conditioning and a window that opened for fresh air. Also hot water in the shower and a mini fridge.
−The space could use some attention. It’s a little small and the Wi-Fi never did work properly for me even when I was connected. There were no hangers in the closet and there was an ant infestation. The bed was quite hard and I wasn’t sure if the bedspread was clean.

+The location is out of the huddle and bustle of the city center, that can be reached with a quick boat crossing ride. The rooms are clean, spacious and new. The bathroom is tiny but with hot and good pressure of water. The view from the terrace is amazing. The contact via whatsapp with the manager has been smooth he arranged breakfast for us. Overall the quality/price ratio is great.

+I highly recommend this hotel. The owner was incredibly helpful. After visiting the temple, we took a boat back through the gate. Suddenly, I realized my phone was missing. Just a minute earlier, I had been sharing photos on the boat. Back at the hotel, I used my iPad to check Find My iPhone. After hearing what happened, the hotel owner immediately drove me to the location shown on the map. Honestly, I didn’t expect to get it back,I even thought it might be a good excuse to buy a new phone. The location pointed to a four-story apartment building. The hotel owner called some friends, and local residents also joined the search. Soon more than ten people were helping me look for my phone. After about half an hour, there was still no result, but the Find My location updated right when we arrived, making everyone believe the phone was inside the building. Since it was a private residence, the hotel owner called the local Egyptian police. To my surprise, two police cars arrived, and the officers were carrying assault rifles. Soon the whole neighborhood gathered. The police wanted to search the building, but the residents strongly objected, saying there was no thief there. Around thirty p
