Fabulous stay at the private and secluded location.

Pros: The location was amazing and the view in the morning at sun rise was exceptional. They are all very friendly and couldn't do enough for us. The food we had for dinner was worth the 10JD we paid, it was beautiful and was cooked in the traditional way, in the ground. All you can eat!! Breakfast was the same in all you can eat as a traditional breakfast with potatoes, eggs, tomatoes, bread, beans, cucumber, hummus etc. All in all a lovely little camp and very private, perfect.

Cons: There was nothing that I didnt like, it was all lovely.

A perfectly secluded Wadi Rum camp

Pros: Stayed here 2 nights and it was magical! The bubble tents are great, unique, comfy and clean. The setting is gorgeous - lots of other campsites are close to each other, but this one is hidden away in a super quiet spot with stunning views. The food is delicious, and Salman and his team are friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed our jeep tour and walking around near the camp.

Nice desert camp with authentic Jordan hospitality

Pros: Very nice camp in the middle of Wadi Rum, located in a hidden spot of the desert... away from main touristic paths. Salman and all the staff were super friendly and welcoming. They helped with any request we made. The \

Cons: Nothing. If i can just give an advice... adding a couple of shelves and hangers would make the room much more comfortable

Excellent location, great jeep ride, away with nature

Pros: Salman offered the 4 hour jeep ride which was quite comprehensive and included Mushroom rock and Umm Fruth Rock Bridge. This was at JD80. If you excluded them, then price will reduce but it's worth taking the former. The location of the camp was ideal as you can get nice photos of the stars as it's isolated with hills in the background. Dinner which you had to pay and complimentary breakfast was great.

Cons: All good. Knowing that this is isolated in the desert, power is obtained through solar energy. So, bring along a headlamp or torchlight as it's lights out after 11.30pm till next morning.

Pros: Our stay at the camp was absolutely wonderful! A really nice driver picked us up at the Visitor Center and we experienced a breathtaking Jeep Tour through Wadi Rum at Sunset. The Room was big and so beautiful! After they showed us our cabin we drank tea with the people who worked there. After that, we opted for Dinner, which was super delicious and the breakfast the next morning was fine. The best Foul I had in my life. The desert is beautiful and I can only recommend staying at this camp.
