Host Your Retreat Umnya Desert Camp
Bring your tribe to the Sahara. We handle the logistics, you lead the transformation.
For Retreat Leaders & Facilitators
Your Program, Our Desert
You have the curriculum. We have 8 luxury tents in the heart of the Sahara, a dedicated team, world-class cuisine, and the darkest skies on Earth.
Whether you lead yoga retreats, wellness immersions, creative workshops, or leadership offsites, Umnya Desert Camp becomes your private venue, exclusively yours, with zero distractions.
Ideal For
The retreats that thrive in the desert
Yoga & Movement Teachers
Morning asanas on the dunes, afternoon restorative in the shade of the majlis, evening meditation under Bortle 1 skies.
Wellness & Breathwork Facilitators
Sound healing, ice baths, holistic detox, the silence and vastness of the Sahara amplify every practice.
Executive Coaches & Leadership Trainers
Offsites where leaders actually disconnect. No conference rooms, just the desert, fire, and stars.
Astrophotography & Creative Workshops
Bortle Class 1 darkness, zero light pollution. Ideal for photography masterclasses, writing workshops, and art retreats.
Adventure & Trekking Guides
Use the camp as a comfortable base for multi-day treks, 4x4 raids, or camel caravan expeditions into Erg Chegaga.

Intimate, safe, private. The camp is yours alone, sacred space for transformation and sisterhood.
