Paloma Lodge Guest House

1.食物非常美味，早餐时光太惬意了。我还跟船长学会了埃及沙拉的酱汁调配，跟那位很亲和的厨师女士学习了其他埃及菜肴的做法。
2.原本我预定的是带公共卫生间的房间，船长升级为带独立卫生间的房间，还带暖气，在寒冷的夜晚，这个很暖和、舒适。
3. 我还参观了正在建设的奢华房型，作为设计师，我不得不说得到了很多设计灵感。
4.船长会建议行程，安排好司机。锡瓦的路坑坑洼洼，司机Adel开的突突车很平稳，这点太重要了，因为锡瓦有些司机开车不会考虑这个，肺都要颠出来了。

房间干净，环境优美，满屏的棕榈树，浓厚的锡瓦风情，非常漂亮。老板和员工人都很好，回应及时，早餐丰富。

对比几家网红酒店，这家庄园在各方面都优异太多。首先，地理位置绝佳，步行到市中心五分钟内。其次庄园面积很大，有很多漂亮的椰枣树。我们预定的房间独享了二层的空间，至少60平方，有一个非常漂亮的露台，房东老爷爷和蔼可亲，和我们一起早餐，并帮忙预定了早上的沙漠越野，度过了愉快的两天。

De gastvrijheid van de eigenaren Neihir en Raghi was geweldig. Ze gaven veel persoonlijke aandacht en boden uitstekende service. Ook tourmedewerker Kola was fantastisch – een hele vriendelijke en behulpzame man die de ervaring in Siwa naar een nog hoger niveau wist te tillen.

房东人超级nice！会帮我们找靠谱的司机和向导（去撒哈拉沙漠拍照篝火吃烤鸡，和锡瓦盐湖飘浮；早餐会问我们想吃什么，早餐很丰盛和美味😋我们离开前晚饭选择留在房东家用餐，价格超级实惠，朋友和我都很喜欢。锡瓦的人真的是一座热情善良又淳朴，有机会到埃及真的不要错过锡瓦。

Paloma Lodge truly is a sanctuary—a place where you can relax, feel at home, and reconnect with yourself. This wasn’t my first time in Siwa, nor my first time staying at Paloma, but this time I chose the guesthouse, and it was just as magical as I remembered.

The house is beautifully built, with high ceilings and natural materials—when I lay in bed and look up at the wooden palm beams, I feel completely at peace. The rooms are spacious and tastefully decorated, and even the shared bathroom is large, clean, and thoughtfully designed. The shower has great water pressure and everything works perfectly.

One of my favorite parts of the property is the lush palm garden. It’s huge and full of shady spots to sit, relax, and enjoy the calm atmosphere. It’s a true oasis within the oasis.

The breakfast deserves a special mention—it’s abundant, fresh, and tailored to your needs. I’m vegan, and I was amazed by the variety and deliciousness of the options. It’s all included in the price, and the value for money is excellent.

But what really makes this place so special is the host, Captain Nayer. He’s warm-hearted, kind, and genuinely cares about every guest. He goes out of his way to make you feel safe, welcomed, and supported, whether it’s helping you organize tours, recommending great tuk-tuk drivers, or simply being a great conversation partner. He’s also very open-minded and inspiring—I feel truly grateful to have met him.

Another great thing: the location. While the lodge is peaceful and quiet, it’s only a 5-minute walk from the center of Siwa. I originally booked a shorter stay but ended up extending, like many others do. And I’m sure this won’t be my last time here either.

If you’re coming to Siwa and looking for a beautiful, calm, and heartwarming place to stay, I can wholeheartedly recommend Paloma Lodge. It really is a feel-good oasis in every sense.

The bed was great! The room was comfortable and had all I needed while still being a charming Siwa house. The room stayed cool even when it was too hot outside. The host is amazing! I almost fell in love with him…but it was too short a visit, sigh. Captain Nayer helped organize several trips with a reliable and affordable tuktuk driver who was wonderful. Breakfasts were great and had many healthy choices served family style. The WiFi was adequate for my needs. If I come back to Siwa in the future, I will stay here. Siwa is an amazing place and so relaxing. It is worth a visit

Breakfast is good , the decoration amazing , the place is quit good

The host is a kind hearted retired captain who is super welcoming, and makes an amazing breakfast!
The garden around the house is beautiful with huge palm trees and different fruit trees.
The house itself is tidy, clean and makes you want to explore everything in and around the house.
You can walk to the city center in a few minutes.

Simply everything

I was originally supposed to only stay one night at Paloma Lodge from 6 Nov to 7 Nov, but because I enjoyed my stay here so much, I decided to extend for 4 more nights, only checking out on 10 Nov instead. Paloma Lodge is very well located, with only about 5 mins’ walk away from Siwan town centre where all the restaurants, cafés and shops are located. Apart from that, it’s only a stone’s throw away from a fresh water spring, where it’s perfect for an early morning or mid-afternoon swim. The host, Captain Nair, is super kind, warm and hospitable! He made me feel very welcomed and because I was a solo female traveller, he would check on me when I’m out later in the evening. In fact, he invited me to dinners at the lodge with lovely meals, either prepared by the good Captain himself, or his lovely housekeeper, Safie! The lodge is very tastefully decorated and kept very clean. The one-room apartment that I stayed in was very cosy and was sufficiently equipped with kitchen appliances, such as; electric kettle, toaster oven and a fridge. I will definitely stay at Paloma Lodge again, when I come back to Siwa!! It was a very enjoyable and cosy homestay which felt like you are with family. A home away from home.
