È alta trentatré metri da prua a poppa e sei metri al baglio. La distanza dalla chiglia al ponte sole è di cinque metri. Come tutte le dahabiya tradizionali, Saray el Nil è una due alberi e ha anche una piccola vela di poppa. Ha uno scafo originale in ferro costruito in Scozia nel 1882 e un prendisole, un cassero e una poppa in legno duro. Saray el Nil viene trainata dal suo rimorchiatore Saieed quando il vento è basso, ma per il resto naviga controcorrente con i venti del nord.

Sotto lo spazioso prendisole in legno, ci sono tre cabine doppie con bagno privato e un’ampia cabina grande con bagno privato e balcone privato a poppa. Guests also have a spacious salon with a large private library, comfortable lounge sofas and a dining table with room for eight guests.

All guest cabins are fully furnished with luxury linens and covers. En-suite bathrooms have traditional showers and baths, mirrors and bespoke soaps, shampoos, towels etc. The construction of the interior is in keeping with the original heritage of the boat dating back to the late nineteenth century, and furnishings, artwork, and decorations (including restored hand-painted panelled rooms) wood and brass fittings have been restored to respect the heritage of the boat. Cabin windows are also original with glass, fly screens and louvred shutters.

The sun deck is about twenty metres in length and six metres wide and has a variety of furnished areas including hand-made rattan tables and lounge chairs in the style of the 1920s. There is a bar area where guests can find fridges with cold soft drinks and where the chef can provide buffets and snacks as requested by guests.
