Talist Siwa

Siwa

Talist Siwa offers eccentric lodging, perfect for a digital detox. The staff is friendly, meals delightful, and stargazing is unmatched. Clean pool, tastefully decorated rooms, and stunning sunrises/sunsets enhance the stay. However, the long drive from Cairo, occasional wildlife droppings, and light water pressure pose minor inconveniences. A unique, nature-immersed retreat.

A Desert Oasis Gem - Talist Siwa

Ihab, his family and his assistants were the most hospitable people I have ever met. They run a generous and lovely family business and made us feel just like home. Breakfast and dinner were always prepared freshly and it was so tasty. They even cooked vegetarian for us because we requested so. If we needed anything we could always ask them. Very kind people.
The room was beautifully arranged and the beds comfortable. There are mosquito nets on every window, so you can sleep peacefully. There is no fan in the room, so it can get hot inside depending on the outside temperature (note: we were there right after the summer break, so it was still 34 degrees celsius outside. But usually in autumn and winter it‘s cooler). There is no wifi at the accomodation but we bought a simcard with internet in Cairo (highly recommended when travelling through Egypt! There are cheap options for Vodafone). The whole complex is aesthetic and there are a lot of cozy sitting accomodations. 
My friend and I felt extremely welcomed and we are very thankful to Ihab and his great team for making us feel like home.

Extremely hospitable people and beautiful accomodation - lovely stay

Talist Siwa is a perfect gem in the middle of the Siwa oasis. From the beginning to the end, everything was perfect. The greeting was so warm, the room clean, big and beautiful. Food was fresh and delicious and every request was met with helpfullness. I recommend lying on a bed, next to the pool, listening to music and watching the amazing night sky! When we had to leave early, they gave us a generous breakfast box on the way. If you search a quiet spot where you can feel part of an egyptian family, you should really go there. Again: Many thanks to the family who built and run this accommodation. It will have forever a special place in our memory!

One of my favourite accommodations ever!

We booked lunch at Talist for our group while visiting Siwa as reports indicated food was really good there.

Our group of 22 participants arrived on time despite the terrible rainy weather and headed straight to the hotel restaurant which obviously had a leak in its ceiling causing rain to drop inside.

Our selected buffet menu was quite delicious, however, the staff seemed overwhelmed and kind of unaccustomed to handling group meals.

We had to wait a good 20 minutes for our selected dessert as apparently the hotel owner had to prepare it herself, but it was worth the wait.

After lunch our group members did allot of shopping at the hotel boutique but it took forever as the lady owner had to manually write down each and every item sold which resulted in delaying our departure.

Finally, ABC in the travel and hospitality business is for the hotels/restaurants to grant complimentary meals for the group bus driver, however Talist charged us for the drivers meal.

Group Lunch

The best place to relax is in the Siva oasis. We went to all the options and this one captured our hearts. Very beautiful design. There are mosquito nets everywhere, which is very important! Although nobody writes about it. Strangely enough! There are so many annoying mosquitoes in power and only in this hotel did this issue be solved. Our recommendations!

The best hotel in the Oasis!

We stayed at Talist for a week during our first trip to Siwa. The rooms were very clean and had all we needed (well, this is an eco lodge after all so we had to manage our expectations). The food was amazing and prepared by the owner herself. Staff members were very friendly and always around to help. Ehab, the son of the owner, was exceptionally helpful and always made sure our needs are met. We shall be back again for sure. 

Excellent value for money!

A great place to stay at in Siwa Oasis. 
Not only the view and the scenery and the decoration is nice but food is outstanding and very delicious.

People are very friendly and nice.
Nabila and her family are great hosts and look after you personally and prepare all nice delicious food specialities.

As an ECO Lodge the place is very quite.

I love the decoration and setup and colors of the rooms.
They are combating flies and mosquitos very effectively with least use of chemicals.

Rooms have light bulbs but no electricity sockets which are centralised outside for charging of mobiles.

Rooms are clean. You have to ask for housekeeping and change of towels. 
Going out, order special towels to take out to lakes.



Excellent ECO Lodge with perfect Food & Service

Talist siwa was one of our best stays we’ve had. The hotel is extremely clean, really relaxing, kind and professional staff, amazing-delicious food (cooked home-Made) and such a beautiful location (mountains behind us and a lake in-front of us). Wonderful, wonderful stay, and we look forward to coming back really soon.

Wow! Amazing! Superb! We’ll be back again soon!

By far the best place we’ve stayed in in Siwa. The hosts are a lovely family from alexandria who lived in siwa for more than 20 years and started that place from scratch , building every corner with their hands. They have very clean and neat bangalos and mud houses and also built rooms on the siwan style. The place is very clean and nice , the place is followed by organic farm that belongs to the family from where breakfast and dinner is made and served. Food is home made by the owner and is extremely delicious. The place also has a natural pool where u can enjoy a cool swim in the hot weather of siwa. It also has a bazar where you can shop for souvenirs and organic soap .Talist is very recommended for relaxation and retreat. The hosting family is very friendly and they make u feel at home. I love the place and cant wait to visit it soon ❤️

Our home is Siwa ♥️

We visited fr touring the place, and an afternoon drink. Every corner tells a story of passion and dedicated artistic talents. Nestled between the mountains of the oasis with wooden art work everywhere. Various accommodation options: Rooms, huts, and tents.Home made food by the owner to die for, and a corner for natural beauty products as well.
