Large, beautiful home with comprehensive services
The house is stunning and comfortably fit our group of 10 students and 1 staff leader. The views from the balconies and rooftop were gorgeous, the rooms were nice, and we made use of the kitchen and pool amenities. The wifi was accessible in most, but not all of the property--once you stray into the garden or additional guesthouse the wifi drops. The house is more like a 30 minute drive to most things you want to get to in Luxor. Also, based on its location, it can be a little challenging to get groceries or have food delivered to the house.
The manager was very friendly, quick to respond, and able to arrange our extra services. The tours and guides he set us up with were high quality and resonably priced. However, cost for services was at times a little hard to follow. Be prepared to pay for each service up front individually and in cash. We made the incorrect assumption that it would be billed at the end, so that made group payment a bit complicated as we had to collect our cash together before each service. Also, be prepared to be asked for a tip at the end for each employee: the manager, driver, housekeeper, gardener, and security. The staff did a good job, but again we weren't expecting to be asked for multiple tips.
Overall, it was a great place to relax in between our excursions, and serves as a good option for a larger group.
