Ammarin Bedouin Camp

Traditional Bedouin camp with great hospitality and locally prepared food Great simple living experience in back to nature environment

All good!

The property is about 1.5 Kms away from the entrance from Little Petra. They arranged food from outside restaurant for us, as were not enough residents there. Its a good location, but not managed properly.

Bathrooms are a mess, Plumbing needs serious repair, door latches need replacing, better lighting is needed. The hot water facility is not enough for the number of guest capacity. The restaurant has no good supply. The caretaker was asking for tips but his service was not good. Overall, it was not a pleasant stay. I would look for other accommodation.

We enjoyed our stay in this Bedouin camp ! By discussions with the host I found out that this is the oldest camp in the area, 22 years old ! (Newer camps have access directly from the road) We were surrendered by mountains - during the day is hot and over the night is cold (1 blanchet is good enough). Sweetened and unsweetened tea is available all time near fire. Dinner is a combination of continental+ Bedouin/arabic dishes with some diversity and plenty quantity. Breakfast is a continental one. Overall nice experience!

Bathrooms and showers were clean but maybe more attention and more maintenance will help looking even better.

Food excellent

Huge delicious dinner

I guess it is better stay in the Wadi musa (Petra willage) for the same money

Our stay at Ammarin Bedouin Camp was fabulous! The location is beautiful and private. We loved the experience of staying in a Bedouin camp. We sat in the main Bedouin tent decorated in the traditional rugs and pillows and enjoyed tea by the fire. Afterwards they served us a fabulous dinner. The night was full of stars and eerie noises of the desert. We loved it! Breakfast is also included. If you plan to come, you can arrange with the host to be picked up in a 4x4 truck by the entrance to Petra and be driven right to the camp for a small fee (we paid 10 JD for the ride). They can also take you back in the morning. I would highly recommend this place for those who desire the experience of staying in a Bedouin camp. Our hosts were so friendly and attentive. We are thrilled to have stayed here. Side note: If you come in the winter months, bring a jacket. The desert is surprisingly cold at that time. Enjoy!

Super clean and comfortable, and in a great location.

Fine location just next to Little Petra. Quite standard bedouin camp experience, but well kept. Very good food too.

We had the camp to ourselves with my 12yo son. We enjoyed it a lot. The fun started right upon arrival when our car got stuck in the sand. The owner helped us out of the tricky situation and then provided us with tea, food and all the comforts. Behind the camp, we discovered a sand dune where we had a blast, and the dinner was simply fabulous. Perhaps the best during our entire stay in Jordan. Thank you very much!
