Salman Zwaidh Camp

We have lived in Jordan for 3 years with our four young children and have had 2 night stays here each year, after this camp was recommended by friends. If you want to camp out in the desert with all the luxuries of a five star hotel, then this is not the camp for you, but if you want to get away from it all and experience total peace and quiet this place is magical. You get rooms with en-suite facilities, meals are provided and tours can be arranged by camel or 4x4 but everything is kept simple. This is not a place for loud parties, it is tucked away and you hear nothing from other camps. They are very friendly and accommodating and most importantly Salman is a man of his word - we agree on the price for the stay ahead of time including meals and that is what you pay, there are no surprises the same with the tours what you are told is what you pay and you are not pushed to do anything, it is very much led by what you would like to do. As a family there is plenty for the kids to explore from climbing rocks and playing in sand dunes and the location feels secluded and safe. The quiet at sunrise and the darkness at night so you can watch the stars is something else, there is no place quite like it, which is why come and the simplicity of the camp means we can enjoy these aspects. I highly recommend this place and we hope to visit every year for as long as we are in Jordan!

Very cool place. Deep into the desert, some of the other camps are close together/ by the road. The staff are lovely - don’t forget to check out the stars at night! They have two friendly cats and goats even! The rooms are great, highly recommend!
