Home description
This villa is a lovely recently renovated villa on the Crocodile lake-side in Ismalia. A very large villa with amazing views of the lake and Suez Canal. Views of all the large ships using the Canal. lovely well maintained private garden with palm trees on the waterfront (perfect for sun-bathing!)
Everything is in the completely air conditioned villa, (new air con system installed) from the washing machine to a gas cooker and washing machine, there are 3 bathrooms, and 5 bedrooms. two bedrooms sharing a amazing balcony. The lounge/ living aerea is very large. There is a phone line also so a dialup internet connection.
There is many local food restaurants from itallian to typical egyptian delivered for next to nothing. It is in a compound with a 24hr security service, and there is also a medium sized swimming pool that is undergoing a renovation. The best time to go in my opinion is from November to April, just because it isnt too hot at these times.
It is hard to describe the villa fully and properly so please call me.
This it the villa from the garden.
This is the view from the kitchen / dining / living room.
This is a seating area inbetween the kitchen and lounge. It is very open plan living.
View from patio onto garden and lake.

The North Egypt / Cairo / North Sinai region
Egypt has a fascinating history and there are many archaeological sites to visit and be amazed by. As one of the oldest civilisations in the world, the Egyptian culture is complex and rich. Ismalia was during the 2nd world war base for the British military activity beside the french and itallians. Therefore there are historic sites in Ismalia that can be visited especially by the old veterans.
The weather is hot and dry in Summer and there is plenty of sunshine to enjoy. The region around Ismalia is very well known for being very green and the Suez Canal.
Ismalia / Suez Canal area
Ismalia is not the place to party . but one hour's drive from ismalia is cairo and further up is Alexandria. Lots of local shops and restaurants to spend your time in. The speciality dish of Ismalia is grilled seafood delivered to your doorstep free of charge (e.g. seabream, seabass, grey mullet, prawns and salad all for £20 based on 4 people sharing).
In Cairo of course is the great Pyramids and the national museum for those who wish to explore..
This area is well known for being peaceful and quiet which will suit people who are seeking a relaxing break and sunbathing.
For £30 a family can use the large swimming pool at the Mercury Hotel (4 star hotel).
How to get there
Flights to Cairo from £300, travel from Cairo airport for £20 (Egyptian currency is very weak to the £1 / 11 Egyptian pounds.) Taxis are very cheap and as is food. Ismalia will suit thoes who travled during the 2nd world war, or general holiday makers. It is a lovely little green and clean city, and is still very cultured. Please call me for more info, as i am Egyptian and can tell you all about it.
A private airconditioned car service can be provided for a whole day trip to Cairo and back to Ismalia for £20 (discounted rate) and Alexandria for £40 (discounted rate).
