Amazing vegan food in Wadi Musa - Edit
Jodanda is a great host with amazing vegetarian/vegan cooking skills. Everything was freshly prepared with local ingredients. She made all meal options either vegan or there was a vegan option available for me. Each day started with a beautifully presented breakfast. In the evening there was a three-course meal which started with a tasty and flavourful soup – each day a different one. For the main course we had a delicious vegan Maklouba on the first day, black beans with colourful and varied vegetables on the second, and a very tasty Dutch potato dish on the third. All main courses were accompanied by a fresh salad. The deserts where the cherry on top of every meal. Jolanda made apple crumble, homemade strawberry ice cream, and baked bananas with melted chocolate. All three where just amazing! I can highly recommend eating at the Fig Tree Villa for both vegetarians, vegans and those who are curious to give it a try. You will not be missing anything! Enjoy!

Beautiful veg dinner and breakfast - Edit
Jolanda serves very delicious home made dinner and breakfast with egg, fruits and herbs from her own farm. Dinner started with tomato and rosemary soup, and oven dish with beautiful veg layers. Salad with Tahini matched very well with the oven dish. Dessert was also very special with her homemade fruit compote crumbles. Breakfast is again so appetising from eyes with many small dips with warm bread. I totally recommend her place! She is super friendly and easy to get along with. I liked her company during the dinner!

Heerlijke plek met heerlijk eten! - Edit
Warme en fijne ontvangst door Jolanda, een lieve en behulpzame gastvrouw die heel veel weet over de omgeving, altijd klaar staat voor tips en advies en ook nog fantastisch lekker (vegetarisch) voor je kookt. Avondeten, maar ook lunch, eventueel lunchpakketje om mee te nemen, en ook heerlijk ontbijt met allerlei lekkere smeersels, humus, noten, jam, etc. Voor koude nachten zijn er warmwaterkruikjes en overdag is het bij zonnig weer heerlijk om op het terras te zitten, met uitzicht op de heuvels van Petra. Fijne huiselijke plek. Behalve het bezichtigen van Petra (waar je via een shortcut makkelijk heen loopt), kun je ook andere mooie wandelingen in de buurt maken. Mooie vergezichten en leuk om naar fossielen te zoeken, die hier overal liggen. Bedankt voor alles, Jolanda!

Une délicieuse soupe de lentille au cumin et citron. Parfait.
Et un dessert très frais.
On mange très bien, c’est très copieux
L’accueil est très chaleureux, le lieu a une vue incroyable sur les montages qui entourent le siq. Coucher de soleil splendide et bien sûr une vue sur la ville de nuit

Excellent dinner with nice company - Edit
We had the chance to have dinner together with B&B guests even though not staying at the B&B as it was booked out already. We had a three course vegetarian meal which was very tatty and ended up with a nice round of tea and chats. Jolanda is a great host and we could see and taste her passion for food and nice atmosphere!

Fantastic location near Petra Visitor Center - Edit
Soon after finishing my day hike from Little Petra to Petra via the Monastery we arrived at Jolanda’s B&B. She served us some cold water with some fresh rosemary from the garden. Jolanda and his business partner welcomed us at the entrance of their B&B. We were served two kinds of soups both very delicious. After the soups we were served a well-prepared vegetarian dish. For dessert we were served fresh figs from her garden and slices of melon. We could also choose between coffee or tea. We decided to get the green tea. The green tea was delicious and completely different than the Japanese green tea ‘Ocha’. The whole meal was only JD 16
Read morePros: Fresh ingredients, Great view from the terrace, Jolanda is vegetarian herself
Cons: Need to order meal a day ahead via telephone

Fresh, home grown, and delicious! - Edit
We reserved vegan dinner for three, and this was my favorite restaurant experience in Jordan. We had a lovely dinner outside, in front of the garden, with a spectacular view overlooking the city and surrounding mountains. There were two kinds of soup to start, both really flavorful. The main course was Saniye (baked layers of potatoes, eggplant, onions, mushrooms, and other seasonal vegetables) along with a fresh Tahina sauce salad. For dessert, 2 large plates of fresh fruit (amazing figs from the garden, and melon), followed by our choice of herbal tea (verbena from the garden). Very enjoyable and satisfying. We were fortunate to be able to also have a nice long chat with the host and manager Jolanda. Absolutely recommend eating here while in the Petra/Wadi Musa area!

Wonderful! Super vegan friendly place and host :) - Edit
In this guesthouse, it's possible to reserve the dinner (whether we are guests or not), better before the previous day and ask it vegan. Then we eat all together around the big wood table. Really nice and tasty! A good way to meet other travellers to visit Petra with.
Read moreWhen you' re a guest, the breakfast is vegetarian (easy to avoid the cheese for Vegans, still a lot to eat). When I went there, there was also marmelade made from the garden's trees, yummy!
I loved my stay in this guesthouse which was like my home during my stay in Petra. Yolanda is a really kind and welcoming host, we had very nice talks. Sure I'll come here when I'll go back to petra. Thank you!
Caroline.
Pros: Vegetarian et mostly vegan, very friendly
