Bait Ali

Bait Ali Camp was built and designed in 1999 by its owner, Mr. Tahseen, who personally constructed the camp himself. With an architectural background influenced by Circassian heritage and a strong connection to the desert of Wadi Rum, he created a property that combines traditional character with thoughtful design. The camp was built using natural desert stones and locally sourced materials, blending authentic Bedouin style with subtle Circassian architectural elements. Over the years, the property has developed from traditional Bedouin tents into well-constructed rooms built with natural stone and brick, offering full hotel-style amenities and private bathrooms. In addition to Bedouin rooms and chalets, the camp also features panoramic glass domes designed to provide views of the surrounding desert landscape. Facilities include a seasonal outdoor swimming pool, evening campfires, and barbecue areas. The large kitchen serves local Arabic dishes, and the camp offers terraced seating areas with a traditional Zerb oven. Guests can explore Wadi Rum’s desert scenery and rock formations through activities such as jeep tours, ATV and buggy safaris, camel riding, land sailing, and hot air balloon experiences. Bait Ali Camp is located near Wadi Rum’s main road. Aqaba is approximately 55 km away, and the Ragdia desert highway turnoff is about 15 km from the camp.

Pros: Very kind and flexible staff. Great hotel site, and amazing view from the top of the hill near the camp. Offers great tours, too. Breakfast and dinner was extremely tasty.

Aws 10/10

Jordan 🇯🇴

Pros: The camp staff is AMAZING. Osama was the most supportive, he called to schedule and facilitate our arrival to the camp and upgraded our room free of charge. He coordinated a mix of day trip and amazing stargazing night in the desert away from the light pollution (recomeneded trip). The food (breakfast and dinner) was very good with available chicken Zarb, meat Zarb, and vigiterian options. The camp is family friendly and the location is accessible by small cars with safe car parking. The pool in the middle of the desert is a plus, especially during morning and after noon hours. In the last day, I asked about the checkout time, they replied by offering flexible late checkout along with the option of having another room to rest till the end of the day! Camp Ali team is very generous and welcoming. They reflected the Jordanian heritage and culture.
