    magical, surreal and memorable!

    if you don't like soft powdery ancient sand, Wadi Rum is not for you.

    We loved The Martian Dome experience (esp after watching the Martian!). It was important to us that our stay is complete with modern amenities and authentic with local touch at the same time, and Sun City managed to balance that extremely well. Our all inclusive stay was made more memorable by the hardworking staff and the whole team. (Mahmoud, Faris, Sultan, Abdul, Chef Hassan/Chef Mohd, F&B team, Housekeeping, Security staff etc). The team were attentive and quick to anticipate our needs, even though there were plenty of guests, both local and international guests, the management team check in with everyone as much as they could. We appreciate it very much. The room was comfortable with air conditioning, ensuite bathroom with walk in shower, clean and well maintained, thoughtful curtains design for star gazing or to block out the summer sun/heat as we were there during the scorching hot mid August. We hired a car and drove from Petra to Sun City and relief to see how easy it was to navigate on GPS as it brings you right to their doorstep parking. We drove during day time and avoided driving anytime after sunset in Jordan as our general rule. We stayed 2 nights, planned a nice day trip south to Aqaba and a Wadi Rum experience with a local tour visiting some of the Hollywood film site (The Martian, Dune, Rogue One, Lawrence of Arabia) and just loving the vastness of the desert and its life. We will definitely return again for a longer stay!

    We should have stayed longer!

    Our accommodations were spacious and impeccably clean. It was amazing that we were cool and comfortable inside the tent with the air con unit despite 45 degree temperatures outside during a heat wave. The staff were all welcoming and kind, especially to our young children making them feel extra special and comfortable. And of course, the setting in Wadi Rum is unbelievably beautiful and special place to be!

    The camp was fantastic. The Martian tents were clean, air conditioned and had a beautiful view of the desert- all with ensuites. The food and entertainment was all included and the meat had to be some of the best I have ever had. The camp arranges camel rides and safaris for you so everything was super easy and very relaxing!

    Everything is great, only slight gap is hot water at night was lukewarm, because everyone get back at the same time and had high demand for shower. It was fine as it was summer time.

    The team is super welcoming and accommodating. Awesome view of the desert from the Martian tent. Traditional Bedouin dinner alongside buffet with great spread. You can book jeep tour (very good) and stargazing (an absolute must!) once you arrived at the camp.

    It would have been nice if there had been snacks available for purchase or something before dinner was served at 8pm. Having wine or beer available for purchase would have been appreciated for western guests.

    The location, easy to find and we could drive in. Dinner was good. Tents were clean. Nice views. We took a 1 hour walk/hike in the morning (paid a staff person $50 CAD) this was a highlight.

    My friend and I had an amazing experience staying at this hotel in Wadi Rum. We arrived by bus, and even before reaching the village, a hotel representative met us and gave us a ride—such a thoughtful welcome! At the hotel, the staff greeted us warmly and upgraded our room to a more comfortable one. They offered us tea, coffee, and juice on arrival, which was a lovely gesture. They also helped us book a 4-hour jeep tour in the desert and arranged a taxi for us to Aqaba—all very quickly and efficiently. The room was clean, spacious, and very comfortable. They even let us check in a bit earlier than the official time, without any issues. The restaurant deserves special mention: everything we tried was delicious. The chef was extremely friendly and even treated us to drinks, even though beverages weren’t included with dinner. What stood out the most was how kind and attentive every single staff member was. They would stop to chat and make sure we were enjoying our stay. Overall, it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Wadi Rum!

    The camp is very well run. We stayed in the Martian domes, which were fantastic - cosy, clean with amazing views out. The restaurant serves delicious food. Haitim & Mahmoud are very welcoming, friendly and helpful. They really made sure our stay was comfortable and arranged for my 90 year old dad to be collected from the room and taken to the restaurant - nothing was too much trouble. My mum & I went on a Jeep tour which was good fun and very interesting. Thank you to all the Sun City Team.

    The property was a brilliant place to stay in Wadi Rum, excellent location, super facilities and excellent food. The staff were attentive, helpful and very friendly. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Sun City. The martian tent was a really cool experience with brilliant views over the desert. The accommodation can also arrange a jeep trip into the desert for you.

    Not a dislike at all, just a small notes that wi-fi is only available at the reception and the restaurant. The lighting is perfect enough at night for use, but may be a bit dark if need to work a bit.

    Can't expect more in a desert area. Suncity camp is unique and well located in Wadi Rum, I had 2 magical nights stay here. The staffs, the quality of the Maritian tent, the view, the food and everything is perfect to make my stay an unforgettable one. Special thanks to Haytham and the team who always attentive to all guests and meet their needs. When I returned to my camp after dinner and one staff just so kind and led me all the way in the dark back to the camp. The house keeping was always spotlessly clean with a very good scent in the room. I had a very delicious traditional sand baked meat for dinner and all other foods are plentiful and beautifully served. I enjoyed the 4 hour jeep tour and watched an amazing sunset on the last day. Definitely an excellent choice in Wadi Rum.

    The camp was spacious with all the facilities needed. We were greeted upon arrival and had all our needs catered for including helping us arrange a jeep tour, lunch and a camel walk. We stayed in the Martian tent which was spacious, comfortable and quiet for a really good sleep. Dinner was delicious and the staff helped reserve a table for us amongst the busy tour groups which was a nice touch. The staff overall were brilliant and helpful throughout the stay.
