Excellence place. beautiful property and view. Excellent service. Great check-in and lodge. cons. 1. too much flies . They did not provide any protection. Flies on and inside food. No cover. 2. Camel ride- Provided at discretion of the provider. Supposed to be till the mountain and see sunset. But too us it was few hindered meters and back.
Room: Stinky, unclean, shower does not close properly.
Deplorable Neither the welcome with these weather conditions nor the contents of the plate worthy of a hospital meal tray nor in almost non-existent quality of entertainment for a Christmas Eve evening I do NOT recommend at all
We spent a relaxing and exotic stay in an idyllic setting. The staff is friendly and welcoming. The view is magnificent whether from the pools or the tents.
We visited The White Camel not for camping but simply for a drink to enjoy the sunset. Despite arrangements made by our guide, the experience fell short of expectations. Upon arrival, one staff member (unsure of his position) was extremely rude. He blatantly dismissed us with an attitude of "I don't need you since you're only here for drinks, not food." His demeanor was unprofessional and insincere, a stark contrast to his initial politeness—a disappointing level of service for such a highly regarded place. The bartenders were also slow and disorganized, forgetting two out of three drink orders. By the time they finally prepared everything, we nearly missed the sunset, which was the main reason for our visit. This all happened during what wasn’t even their high season, with the place nearly empty, making the delays even more frustrating. While the view is undeniably beautiful, there are other spots in the area offering the same scenery with better service. Consider trying one of those instead.

Experience afternoon and evening absolutely null: very cold welcome, we did not know where to dine.... dinner consisted of soup, a chicken tagine without semolina or vegetables and industrial cake. 55€ plus drinks. To pay we are supervised by “bodyguards” not counting because we did not consume enough drinks. We are not offered swimming pool or towels. Only very positive point: the camel ride with an exceptional guide.

Brilliant trip from start to finish, exceeded my expectations. The tour organiser stayed in contact throughout to ensure a smooth experience. The driver was punctual and polite and the camp was very luxurious. A camel ride was included and we upgraded to a lodge, which was stunning. The service on the camp was faultless and the food delicious. Highly recommend this trip.
