About this property

Desert Camp and Retreat Center with Staff and a Cook in Wadi Rum, Jordan

Welcome to the heart of the desert—your retreat in Wadi Rum

Nestled amid the breathtaking rock formations of the Wadi Rum Nature Reserve lies our authentic Bedouin desert camp—a place of tranquility, inspiration, and connection to nature.

Our retreat center was designed with great care and respect for the surrounding environment. The large workshop room, harmoniously integrated into the rocks, offers a very special atmosphere for yoga retreats, workshops, and events—quiet, powerful, and grounding. The wraparound terrace is also available for use, as are many spots out in the great outdoors.

You’ll stay in one of 12 comfortably furnished Bedouin tents that combine traditional simplicity with modern comfort. Our tents are equipped with bed linens and towels.

A cozy lounge with a fireplace, a well-maintained shared bathroom with showers, toilets, and sinks, as well as plenty of space to relax and socialize, round out the camp experience.

Our package includes:

Three lovingly prepared meals a day (vegan, vegetarian, or traditional Bedouin) – freshly cooked by our private chef and served buffet-style

Water, tea, and coffee are available free of charge all day

Yogaand meditation equipment available for free use

Additional event equipment available for rent upon request

We arrange transfers to and from the camp, including luggage service for groups upon arrival and departure. Upon request, we’d be happy to organize your customized itinerary—whether in Wadi Rum or on a tour throughout Jordan.

Pick-up and drop-off are also available directly at Queen Alia Airport (Amman) or King Hussein Airport (Aqaba).

Immerse yourself in the silence of the desert, find your rhythm, and let the magic of the place carry you away.
The accommodation is heated and features 12 bedrooms. Stretch out in the jetted tub. The accommodation also includes a fireplace.
