El Bawaba Retreat-Hotel
In Arabic El Bawaba is The Gateway, The Gate Keeper, The Portal, and The Star Gate. We have built a temple set against the mythical Theban Hills and the mystery of the Nile, brimming with birdsong, unforgettable sun rise and sun set, and starry nights. It is here we discover the myth of the intrepid soul traveller.
- The History of Ancient Egypt
- The Myth of The Traveller
- Medicine, Myth, Magic
- The Emerald Jewel- Love Stories
In a peaceful village enclave, surrounded by banana plantations and the Nile, El Bawaba’s panorama view is Luxor Temple and the Necropolis of the Theban Hills. An emerald jewel in the Sahara landscape. Our restaurant garden, is abundant with dates, moringa, hibiscus, vegetables, fruits, bees and rare birds. We love humanity and earth.
**At El Bawaba **
Only Egypt Products- no Coca Cola, no Heinz, no Pepsi, no Barclaycard. We restore and protect a tiny, tiny bit of decency and good in the world to tackle peace, poverty, inequality and human suffering.
As the ancient cradle of civilization, Egypt transforms perception of who we are and what world is. History and myth shatters the illusion of convention. We step into extraordinary art, architecture and soul that calls us to be much more than we have been led to believe. We walk in the footsteps of kings and queens. The medicine of ancient Egypt. The myth of the Traveller. We are restored, invigorated and inspired.
El Bawaba enhances your travel, culture and foodie experiences. We serve Tabekh- Upper Egyptian Cuisine.
As an unique boutique hotel with travel and culture immersion we take you to ancient history, village life and Egyptian culture, exquisite food experiences, VIP visits, restoration, meditation, retreat, and pilgrimage. We can sail you on the Nile from Luxor to Aswan in a dahabyia or hire the Tomb of Tutankhamun to visit at night by yourself. In Egypt anything is possible.
