Camp Sahara

The tents are great. Spacious, comfortable beds, heater and AC and not very noisy.

It’s just really expensive. There are no shops, restaurants or bars on the compound itself, but instead you have to go to the dilapidated resort Biankini - and that’s a mess. We tried the restaurant and they wanted to charge ILS 150 for a buffet that looked very sad. The beach was a mess too - old pieces of scaffolding wood and other damaged and unused building materials are scattered everywhere and it just looks very dirty. To come back to the expensive part - a stay in the tents set us back over ILS 800. While the tents are great, that price should give you nice surroundings and better facilities.

The camp was clean and well designed for Sukkot.

Although we personally didn’t experience too many pest issues, it’s a great idea to regularly treat the tents and bathrooms for bugs, flies and spiders.

Cleanliness of the place. Clean showers. An arranged fire dining area.

The beach is not the most comfortable, far away and untidy. Bad dining room. Not tasty. cold food

Exceptionally clean, excellent and ever-present staff and I was amazed by the comfort of what in photos looks like a tent, but actually is more comfortable than most hostels I've ever stayed in. Air-con was excellent. You can also use a pool and beach at the nearby (1 minute walk) complex.

It can be hard to reach by foot, especially at night. I recommend trying to arrive in daylight

nice tends and clean toilets / showers

Israeli managed structure in Palestine...

The place was super cute and walking distance to the Dead Sea. The staff was super helpful and kind, they let us storage our bags with them while we took a three day trip to Jordan. Parking was inside the compound and very secure. Remember you are in the middle of nowhere so don’t expect for things to be around you, the nearest gas station is like 2 miles away, so bring everything you need if you don’t have a car. There is not food around the place at night time.

The only thing I would change if I was the owner of the place was to offer towels for free, specially with the price charged per night. We stayed in 6 different hotels/airbnbs in this trip and payed less than Sahara and all offered towels. And I would cover the roof in the kitchen area, one night we wanted to go use the kitchen and it was raining and we couldn’t because the kitchen was not cover. Other than this two small changes, the place is wonderful.

The beds were very comfortable. The staff at the reception desk were so friendly.

There was an all night disco at the property next to Camp Sahara. The music kept everyone up for most of the night. I know it is not the fault of Camp Sahara.
