Description
Im Abdo, 32 years old and I grew up in Egypt.
3 years ago I started a resort for retreat and relaxation in the magical Oasis called "Siwa", that will never fail to attract you with its beauty.
I'm working as an engineer in Germany and I travel back and forth to Egypt as much as I can.
In the last year we grew a lot and extra hands are always welcome.
We hope to work together with you in Siwa.

1- Abdo: online reservations and customer service
2- Seliman:logistics and procurements
3- Etman & Hassan: The Kitchen & restaurant

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
This Oasis is in the middle of the desert, but it has a lot of farming, lakes and history. It is an exotic place to experience with all palm trees and amazing sand dunes. It's a touristic town with some of Pharaoh temples. The locals are Amazigh, they have a special culture than the rest of Egypt.
In our place, we are one family doing everything together, we always learn from each other different habits, languages and traditions. We speak 3 languages in our place, Arabic, English and Amazigh. It's a special combination that would enrich your experience with us.
