    Wild dogs shooting half of the night. Wire mesh fence 3 meters of the room that mess up the view and the atmosphere

    Facilities : jacuzzi, pool (even if weather wasn't good enough to enjoy the pool). Large and comfortable rooms (superior class) Nice location, at the foot of the mountain, in the middle of orchards. Very kind and easy staff

    This is based on compared to other camps. The breakfast is not so good and the room was a little bit used and the air inside dusty maybe because of the textile. Anyway it's a good camp and nice place but really overpriced. We expected much better service for this price.

    Authentic camp in the wild area.

    There are some distance from ruin so we had to pay extra fee for putting baggage and transportation. On the other hand, total cost is lower than other hotels and the view is great.

    In Petra, we spend time at ruin. It mean our main purpose to stay hotel is to rest. Their rooms are clean and enough facilities. Also, they has pool and netflix. They are reasonable, clean and enough facilities to rest.

    Rock Camp tries to be a cool destination in its own right, and it almost succeeds!

    Although they're rapidly expanding, it has the air of somewhere that hasn't been quite thought through... perhaps they'll iron out the creases over time. The tour coach driving right up to our guest huts and idling the engine for 90 mins from 7am was a low point... but there's nothing that would stop me staying there again.

    Rock Camp is undoubtedly a cool place to stay; the breakfast is decent and the buffet dinner was excellent both nights. Would have loved to have spent more time there at the pool and just hanging out in the evening; it's quite expensive compared to other options when you're just sleeping and wolfing down food before heading off to Petra again!

    For those who are sensitive to synthetic smell (probably coming from the materials of the tent that have to resist the sun rays), I would suggest to choose a type of room besides the bubble.

    The staff at the reception, at the restaurant, at the rooms were all exceptionally professional and friendly! The rooms were clean and so were the bathrooms inside the rooms. We had reserved dinner at the restaurant beforehand for 14JD per person for adults, and it was superb in terms of the tast and quantity! Children were not charged but the food was more than enough for all of us to eat and more, plis they prepared French fries for the kids! The pool was big and deep and very cleanly maintained. We had great view of the surrounding from the room, and we enjoyed the serenity at night and in the morning (except for the barking dogs, but they are also just doing their job!). I would highly recommend this lodging for travelers, even those with kids.

    The location in itself was pretty spectacular, with all the surrounding mountains and everything. But if the idea is to stay there to visit Petra, it’s not ideal. You will bleed money in taxis to go and come back and the staff at the reception doesn’t really have much information to give about visiting Petra.

    Petra - must see place

    • Family with young children

    This is a very nice camp, however not a 5 star standard. The place requires further investments into the facilities and services. We have had almost a fire in the camp due to broken kettle. Fortunately the staff was very helpful. The water under the shower is rather cold and nothing could be done to fix the problem. There is no internet connection in the Camp, however you can use WiFi (ok but not excellent). There is a swimming pool (great!) but we didn't use it as the water was cold. Breakfasts are very basic, even poor. There are no shops or restaurants in the neighbourhood and you can't buy any snacks or soft drinks in the Camp (you get water, tea and 1 x person soft drink for free, every day).

    The camp is managed by a great manager who is very service oriented, understands customer needs and is trying his best (with limited resources) to satisfy every guest. Without Atef the camp would be average. So, big compliments to the entire staff. Location is also nice but it isn't easy to find it and impossible to get there without the car. In general it was a nice experience to be there but don't expect too much.

    The breakfast had a lot of flies, can't really blame it on the hotel though cause the staff was always there cleaning and preparing the buffet. There were also a few insects in the shower and on the tent ceiling but nothing too bad, kind of expected when you're in the nature and sleeping under a tent. The camp was also a bit far from the Wadi Musa village and it wasn't well lit so I'd recommend eating at the hotel at night unless you're comfortable with driving in the dark.

    The room was clean, spacious and the beds were very clean. The staff was super nice, we called them for some tips on how to visit Petra and they helped us a lot and were very transparent about the best ways to go through it. The tents were also big and the private bathroom was a plus.

    The location is not the best and not the most romantic we stayed at, however for one night when visiting Petra it was sufficient. It was very cold in the winter in our room even though the ac was on the whole night.

    Staff is the strongest point of the accommodation - very polite, friendly and very helpful. Tents were spacious and we also had warm water in the bathroom that you do not take for granted in the desert. Food for dinner was nice too.

    the breakfast room should have been heated. everyone was freezing. and the staff seemed very stressed.

    they had heat in the tents and tvs with Netflix! after days in the cold desert, this was the real luxury. but I wouldn’t consider this camping.

    breakfast and dinner, overall price

    The camp is a unique experience for those who never tried bubbles. The staff is very nice and friendly; special thanks to our friend, Atef who made our stay even more special. The breakfast though could welcome some improvement, also the place overall felt overpriced for what it offers.
