    A glimpse into Bedouin life in a fairytale environment encourages self-reflection. Big thanks to Abdalsalam, Farag and others who made it possible for us to experience this. Highly recommended!

    The nights were cold (nothing to do with the facility or tents), and they offered extra blankets. So nothing bad to say.

    The people were very friendly, helpful and did everything they can to make your stay unforgettable. Lots of cousins/locals coming by to make it a real Bedouins experience. The food was delicious. They offered a range of jeep and hike tours. Definitely go with them.

    The Booking.com map points to wrong location. But don't worry: the host staff provide comortable transfer from Wadi Rum Visitors center.

    Perfect experience to thay there in the heart of Wadi Rum desert. Real Jordanian bedouins hospitality. Fantastic sunset viewpoint. Tasty local Arabic meals for the dinner and breakfast. Interesting jeep safari tours.

    Everything okay. Tent has basic things, maybe the bathroom can be improved a little bit. But at the end of the day you pay a little amount of money for dinner, breakfast and staying. Host really gentle and perfect.

    If you consider this, just go ahead and expand the definition of who you are - give yourself this incredible opportunity to experience welcoming open-hearted bediuns and a glimpse of present lifestyle and the huge element created by the surroundings and profound energy from the mountains that you can easily explore by yourself in the daytime. Thank you for everything you're space allowed me to be taught, feel and see. P.s. Thank you for taking good care of my camel during my stay, and bringing him back from the mountains when he needed help. He was very happy in the dessert, enjoyed the company of lovely people around the fire, and the delicious nourishing food. All the best Olivia

    We stayed at Sunset Oasis Camp beginning of February. The weather was quite cold those two nights we had in Wadi Rum, but we got a lot of warm blankets so we kept ourselves nice and warm during the night in the tent. We did camel riding and 1day jeep safari. Both were well organized, the landscape is stunning where ever you look. The food was really good during the safari and in the camp as well. Everybody was really friendly, was cozy to sit with the fire in the mornings and evenings in the main tent. You shouldn’t have expectations of having running water, electricity and wifi all day long, but it is just fine as it is. Leave your every day habits behind and just take in the calmness of the place.

    Food, I saw the low review on breakfast already but chose this place overall consideration. I arrived late, so didn’t have the real dinner. But they still managed to bring me food and I enjoyed after long day in the rain. Lunch during the tour was also disappointing. If food is the most important thing for you, then no. Otherwise, in case you can compromise food for other values, I highly recommend this!!

    I was concerned a bit as a solo female traveller but there’s nothing to worry about. Safe place and friendly staff. I was also worried about the cold night. However, they prepared 3 extra blankets and the tent was well functioned as well(no heating facility but isolation). I slept well in a rainy late December night. I also did a tour with Abdul. He may not be a talkative/sweetest guide but always willing to take care of my needs as many as he can/ answered and many questions from me - overall, very nice experience!!

    Toilets didn't really flush properly, when I used them, but were clean. But honestly: you're in the middle of the desert, what can you expect! As it is kind of a small camp only (7 tents), you have to be prepared that not everyday there always are other travelers, which might be not ideal of you're traveling solo. But I was totally happy with this place and can only recommend it! Shkran!

    Eveything was amazing! Abdulsalam contacted me right away via WhatsApp after booking the camp. He kindly picked me up at the visitor center and took me to the camp via 4WD. The camp has a great location, tents are cosy and big enough. Views and the desert's silcene are amazing. The big community tent has a chimney, which I liked a lot as its used to prepare tea 'bedouin style' and to sit together to chat and hang aroung. The staff is very friendly. Dinner and breakfast were traditionally prepared and delicious. As I was traveling on my own, but still wanted to do a jeep tour in Wadi Rum, Abdulsalam organized a shared 4WD-tour for me for the next day, which was very nice and saved me a good amount of money. Thanks again for that!

    Nothing negative.

    I enjoyed the stay a lot. The camp is beautifully located, the beds in the tents are comfortable and the food is super tasty. Though the best is certainly the company. Abdalsalam and the others were very welcoming. I would totally recommend to stay here and ideally to book a tour as well.

    Abdullasalam is a very great host, welcoming, careful about the needs of his guests. The other people running the place are also very generous and nice, especially Abdullah, the funniest one!

    My experience at the Sunset Oasis hotel was the best I had in my whole vacation in Jordan.

    No complaints. Everything was excellent

    A very authentic Bedoiun experience. The host, Abdalsalam, offered great hospitality. He is a very genuine man. He also arranged a jeep tour of Wadi Rum for me and was my guide during my one day's stay (including an overnight stay) and prices were very reasonable. The evening meal was also excellent and there was a very easy going atmosphere at the camp.
