Al-Nawatef Eco Camp- Dana Nature Reserve

The most wonderful place. People were so kind. We have had so nice discussions. And nowhere have we eaten so good. The camp had organized a hike for us through the Wadi Ghuweir. Worth every drop of sweat. The only regret we had, was that we did not stay longer.

To anyone unsure of which place to book: this is definitely the one! The camp is perfect to relax and calm down, the views over the reserve are stunning, and the staff is incredibly friendly, kind and nice. They went out of their way to make us feel welcome, help us with any inquiries we had, and made sure we had the best time. We also did the sunset tour and the Cave tour with them, which were really beautiful!

Simple but nice camp, stayed in a basic hut without electricity. There were some woollen blankets to keep us warm, but the tent was not windproof, this could be improved. Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The owners are amazing and the other guests too. They made sure we got our tea cup constantly filled! Dinner was fine. We were well informed about our hike trip to Wadi Ghuweir and the time it takes to get back by bus (2 hours). We already had expected it would cost us a whole day, but we had to wait for a long time before the mini van arrived to bring us back to the camp. Maybe this is something to improve. At the end point, it is possible to rest in a tent, where drinks can be bought and toilets are available. It is also possible to arrange that your rental car is driven to the end point of the hike, so that you can drive to your next destination immediately! I wish we had more time to discover the beautiful environment at Dana Reserve! Hope to come back here.
