Lodges in Mitzpe Ramon

Desert Shade is in the most amazing location, looking out over the Mitzpe Ramon Crater. A short walk takes you right to the rim, and then you can walk along the edge, looking out over miles of desert landscape, with wadis, differing coloured rocks, and it’s hills and plateaus. The staff are very welcoming and helpful. And sweet mint (black) tea was offered on arrival. The cabin was delightfully simple, clean and tidy, and a/c very welcome. The beds are simple but comfortable. Showers and toilets clean. Wonderful colours and clouds as the sun set; plenty of stars in the middle of the night bathroom trip (which felt very comfortable, with lighting and my phone’s torch, although that was hardly needed, to light the way. Delicious breakfast, which we ate, as we did the supper we brought, in the ‘tent’ roofed and walled with real traditional Bedouin goats’ hair rugs. In short, it’s a fabulous place.

lovely remote place in the desert incredibly good vegetarian food (breakfast and dinner) lovely hosts

Loved the room decor, the patio, hot tub and the view! Communication with David was easy and straightforward. Mitzpe Ramon is a wonderful artsy small town worth visiting!
