Petra Wassaif Camp

We loved the location. Super friendly staff, Sam. Would recommend that you bring snacks, as food is limited. The perfect place to unwind after Petra.

When I chose this accommodation I wanted to stay 2 nights in a local accommodation where we could enjoy the beauty of the place because I had seen good comments on You Tube, but it wasn't like that. I wanted to stay 2 nights in a local accommodation where we could enjoy the beauty of the place because I had seen good comments on You Tube, but it wasn't like that. For the reservation I discussed on Instagram where I asked for the price for accommodation with half board but I did not ask for details of the accommodation and dinner conditions, which I thought was like, what I had in Wadi Rum and which is present to you in all posts on You Tube. The location is located 20 km from Petra and you have to walk 2 km from the main road on a path that is very dangerous at night. When I arrived at the accommodation I was surprised when I found that our tent was not equipped with AC to have heat during the mopti because in those days of March 2022 when I was the temperature dropped during the night almost 0 degrees and the wind was blowing in gusts of 80 km / h and hot water they told us that we only had 1 hour in the morning, an aspect that I told the manager that they did not write in the booking confirmation. So we asked for a tent with AC and they told us they could only give us one night. The disappointment was even greater at dinner when we found that the time for the meal is not respected because we had to get to Petra by Night and its content was trivial and not enough for everyone. In total we were - 4 people plus another couple from Germany a total of 6 people. When we returned from Petra by Night we were moved to a tent with AC but we found the lack of hot water, we asked to have hot water and the person in charge of maintaining the field told us that these are the accommodation codes. Eventually they gave us 1/2 hour of hot water BUT after that the ELECTRICITY was turned off and we had to sleep in the cold all night, our luck was that we still had an extra blanket in the room. Another disappointment in the morning, no hot water and no electricity and when I contacted the manager he didn't answer, it was Friday, and Friday is their day off. It all culminated in breakfast which, like dinner, was 1 hour late and I found it to be very poor and insufficient for the 6 people. So after breakfast I decided to leave here but the person in charge of the field did not know anything about the price and told me that he could not talk to the manager because it is a day off. I showed him where I was talking for the price and he agreed to leave after I paid for one night. My opinion is that before booking this accommodation ask for details of the accommodation and dinner because you may have a very unpleasant stay. I understand that all the bankruptcies - water, electricity are an effort for them to be brought to this place but it must be said before, DO NOT wake up at 10 pm when you return after a day of visiting Petra full of dust because you can not
