Perfect location in the Wadi with hills sheltering this friendly camp. You feel safe and cared for by the owner, Dara and her competent, kind staff. Lovely excursions around - and the star-gazing with a jovial, erudite astronomer is a highly enjoyable event. Do not miss out on the dinner under the stars - mouth-watering, underground cooked meat and vegetables - a feast for the eyes and mouth.
The camp is great! Staff is excellent and ready to take care of any need. The tent we stayed in may be looking a little old but everything works. As promised, you park your car and they come and get you for a short drive through desert sands. Once there you a can walk to some amazing sites just outside the gate. Then ride camels and/or hire a jeep to tour the Wadi Rum reserve. An amazing trip...
We stayed here for 1 night as part of a Jordan tour. I’m told it replaced The Captains Cabin camp, as the tour operators choice.

Ahmad, the camp manager, was amazing. Truly, this camp was everything you wanted and more. The chef was the highlight of the camp—the food was super tasty. The staff were very kind and friendly. Our interactions with everyone exceeded our expectations. We booked two activities through the camp and we were very pleased. Thank you, Ahmad and everyone for making our trip memorable.
Fair and Accurate Review
Good things: Dinner, camp fire, shisha (limited flavours but great), staff are very nice to talk to, great complimentary tea in the evening.
Not so great things: breakfast was poor, nobody really welcomes you and flies were flying across all the food items. They also charge for water, and drinks (soft, even water) isn't included in dinner, so if you want any drink with dinner...
We enjoyed our stay at this camp. We even got an upgrade for free. Nice and friendly staff.
