Monthly Rentals in Shobak

The stay was marvelous and truly wonderful in every way where all amenities were amply available and all needs were taken care of but this review goes beyond that. What made the stay truly special was Akef's hospitality and his genuine care. He took special efforts to show us around Petra, served us exquisite and delicious local meals in house. Akef is an amazing person who converses freely and never made us feel like just another tourist. I would recommend his stay and hospitality for anyone who wants to come to visit Petra and stay at Wadi Musa.

Mohammad and his family are wonderful hosts, they were very caring for me, and kindly involved me in meeting their family & friends, and sharing their Eid celebration meal. He also gave me time & space whenever I wanted it. My bedroom was very clean, with a fantastic hard mattress and the en suite had a power shower, ideal to wash away the days dirt & sand!! I will be recommending staying with Mohammad to my closest friends and loved ones, as I know they would be well cared for.

I had an amazing time staying at Qasim’s place during my stay in Petra! Once you make it to the Petra Visitor Centre, you can take the free shuttle bus (behind the Petra Visitor museum) to get to Little Petra. Afterward, it’s a 20 minute walk to get to the small town that this Airbnb is in. It’s a very private and comfortable space! You’d be staying at a guesthouse at his property, behind a gated fence. If you’re packing light, you can use his washing machine as well. He’s quick to respond and can help you if you have any questions with navigating Petra. You can take the back entrance to Petra via a jeep truck at the entrance to Little Petra for 5JOD (about $7 USD), and the experience that way is a lot better than the normal route that everyone goes through (via the visitor centre). Just be prepared to hike a good amount! If I’m ever in the area again, I’ll be staying at Qasim’s place :)

Well worth the stay. Akram provided an extensive local experience and ensured the accommodation was looked after to a good standard. Akram is also very responsive and made sure any needs were met. Highly recommend!
