Our story

Past Tulcea, the Danube splits into two great branches. If you follow the Sulina down towards the sea, you'll find us on the right bank, at Crișan. We made our nest here, in the heart of the Danube Delta, out of love for the place.

All around are lakes and canals, floating reed islands and lush vegetation. Here you are connected to the people of the place and to nature, with a fisherman's kitchen on the premises and four-daisy comfort besides.

A holiday at Izora means water and sun, rest, boat rides, fishing, water lilies, wild horses, shells and fish, astonishing birds, expanses of reed, Sulina with the cosmopolitan charm of a Romanian port of another age, seafarers' lighthouses, the beach, and the place where the old Danube loses both its water and its name in the sea.

We're waiting for you to discover it all!

Transport, boat trips and boat hire

Transport, boat trips and boat hire

Turn your stay into something you'll remember, and discover the beauty of the Danube Delta beyond the place you're sleeping. We offer our guests transport by water, organised trips and boat hire, so that every day spent here is a proper adventure. We handle quick, comfortable transfers to and from the guesthouse, as well as transport to the Delta's main points of interest. For those who would rather explore nature at their own pace, we hire out boats; and for the complete experience, we run guided trips along the Delta's spectacular canals.

Glide among the water lilies, watch the pelicans and the 300-plus bird species that make this reserve unique in Europe, find hidden lakes, traditional villages and landscapes that stay with you. Routes can be adapted to your preferences and to the length of your stay, so that every trip becomes a memorable one.

Rooms

Rooms

Comfort, elegance and attention to detail define every room in our guesthouse. We offer double rooms with a king-size bed, twin rooms and a spacious apartment, all furnished in a modern style and fitted with everything a restful stay needs.

Each room has its own personality, decorated in a distinct style, with design touches that give it a charm of its own. So each stay becomes a different experience, while the standard of comfort and refinement stays the same.

Whichever room you choose, you'll enjoy a welcoming setting, the quiet particular to the Danube Delta, and the hospitality that turns every stay into something memorable.

Food

Food

At our guesthouse, every meal is an invitation to discover the authentic tastes of the Danube Delta. We serve breakfast, lunch and dinner daily, prepared from fresh ingredients, with the emphasis on the traditional fisherman's dishes that define the gastronomy of this region. The menu brings together local recipes passed down through generations and dishes made with fresh fish and seasonal ingredients, for a culinary experience that is authentic and full of flavour. From a hearty breakfast that gives you the energy for a day of exploring, to lunches and dinners that bring out the gastronomic richness of the Delta, every dish is cooked with care and passion.

In a welcoming, relaxed atmosphere, meals become more than a moment in the day — they are part of the authentic experience of the Danube Delta, and a chance to savour local tradition in its most delicious form.

Activities

Caraorman Forest

half a day by boat

Caraorman Forest

The Delta's second forest reserve, on the Caraorman sandbank. It can be chosen instead of the trip to Letea, at no extra cost. As there, the tour through the forest is run by locals in safari vehicles, at a charge — around 40 lei per person, plus 10 lei to enter.

The canals and lakes on the way to the guesthouse

an hour, coming and going

The canals and lakes on the way to the guesthouse

The transfer from Murighiol isn't a journey, it's the first excursion. You pass along the Sfântu Gheorghe branch, the Uzlina canal and lake, Lake Isacova, and the Litcov, Lung and Caraorman canals, until you reach the Sulina branch. From the width of the Danube you move gradually into small, shaded canals, with tiny settlements on the banks. On the stretches of open lake there are pelicans, cormorants and herons — most of them without needing a separate trip at all.

Fishing, from the jetty

right outside the guesthouse

Fishing, from the jetty

You fish straight from the jetty in front of the guesthouse or from the canal behind the garden, no boat and no timetable needed. The recreational or sport fishing permit is issued free of charge by the Reserve Administration.
