Palmera Camp Wadi Rum

Palmera Camp Wadi Rum boasts a breathtaking, secluded location in the heart of Jordan’s stunning red desert and is virtually off the grid. This is an ideal desert retreat for those seeking modern comforts together with the personalised service offered by a relatively small desert camp.

Offering accommodation in just 18 tents, including futuristic Martian-Dome-style tents, this intimate camp is designed to provide an extraordinary Arabian desert adventure without straining your budget. Each tent is spacious, and thoughtfully decorated in warm, neutral tones using locally sourced traditional Jordanian rugs, hand-made furniture, and fine bed linen.

All tents benefit from electricity, are equipped with private bathrooms (hot water available from sunset until the following morning) and feature a small private terrace from which guests can admire panoramic views of the Wadi Rum Desert during the day and the star-studded sky after sunset.

A short stroll across the sand is the camp’s dining tent, where tasty breakfasts and dinners are served in open buffet style. Leisure facilities include an outdoor pool and an indoor games area where guests can play billiards as well as foosball, which makes this camp hugely popular amongst families travelling with young children.

Activities on offer at the Palmera Camp Wadi Rum include camel riding, 4×4 rides, hiking, and jeep adventures. Several magnificent landmarks close to this camp include Lawrence’s House, Mushroom Rock, Burrah Canyon, Jabal Khazali and Little Bridge, making it popular amongst those interested in walking in Wadi Rum.
