Luxor is the number one choice for those wishing to
experience firsthand the culture and history of Ancient Egypt.
Known as the "City of Palaces",
no other place can lay claim to the many magnificent testaments to the
thousands of years during which the Pharaohs ruled. Amongst the renowned
archaeological and cultural sites are the temple complexes at Karnak and Luxor. Built to honour
various gods, they are the result of influences and improvements carried out by
the Pharaohs over hundreds of years. The most visited sites are the temple
complexes on the Nile's East Bank and a number of West Bank areas such as the
Tombs of the Nobles, the Valley of the Kings and the Valley of the Queens.
The Maritim Jolie Ville Luxor Island Resort occupies a prime location only 4 km
from the city center of Luxor
and is the ideal starting point for discerning holiday makers wishing to
experience this ancient world. The unique resort is nestled amidst spacious
landscaped gardens on a 630,000 sq.m. Privately owned island in the River Nile.
The island is connected to the mainland by one road and only one bridge, and is
virtually free of cars. This makes the resort to an ideal location for any one
seeking peace and tranquility from the hustle and bustle of the modern world,
and especially for families with kids, ensuring safety and plenty of space for
play.
The expansive facility consists of the main building, a large swimming pool
area, and the bungalow accommodation spread throughout the gardens.
