Kasbah Aitisfoul

Ait isfoul has been lovingly restored by owner Kamal Yassine, Mohamed’s grandson and partner, artist Michelle Fletcher. In restoring it’s original beauty and charm, this small Kasbah, nestled in a Date Palm Grove, shares it’s richly layered berber culture, traditions, its own unique flavours of Sahara and the simplicity of local desert life. Jointly and in collaboration with local artisans and craftsman, we have used traditional techniques and reclaimed materials whenever possible. Kasbah Ait isfoul has soul, and is in the heart of a local berber village and filled with history and berber character. We offer you a authentic and simple experience, with many details and comforts for you to enjoy the local desert way of life

More rustic than we had envisioned

Reviewed By cynthiadW1731EQ

We arrived on a windy day and after four windy days, the desert sand appeared to be taking over the property. The staff, who were very kind, seemed a little surprised to see us and we were the only guests. They were trying to clear off the pool and dining areas (all open to the elements) but the pool (one of the main reasons we booked here) was uninvitingly murky despite their efforts. The kasbah and surroundings were not as scenic as we thought they would be from the website. The room had some nice decorative touches but the flies and ants detracted from them. The food was good, well prepared and served. The price for the room was high by Morrocan standards, and we thought it was poor value for what we got.

M'hamid Bivouac - Chez Naji

Chez Naji at Erg Chegaga Desert

Reviewed By Cristina R

Surprisingly well set, clean and confortable desert camp. The location is by the side of the main, bigger dunes, quite well located. Dinner was quite good (remember to take your wine, if you want to have it with your meal, as there is no alchool) and the tents (which are brick walled underneath) very cozy.

Be prepared for lots of travel

Reviewed By AussieIan66

We had a 4 day 3 night desert tour. Our driver picked us up from Marrakech and made the trip personal. He stopped for any request and was informative in local history. The desert camp was probably the highlight with Magnificat sun sets and sun rises. We arrived in 42 degree temp and the air conditioned tent was certainly a blessing. The camp staff were all very friendly and accommodating. If you want a glass if wine with dinner to to watch the sunset with make sure you get the driver to stop at a nearby town as they don’t have any in the camp. The trip back to Marrakesh was probably the most tiring with a 9 hour travel time to traverse the winding roads across the mountains. It would be good if there was a way some of the time travelling could be reduced with helicopters or light aircraft as it took us a day to get over the trip back.

We stayed for 3 nights at Umnya and we just had the most memorable experience ever! It was our first time in the Sahara desert and we couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. Everything was absolutely perfect, the location of the camp is just unbeatable, the staff is always ready to help you with anything you need and always with a smile on their faces, seriously some of the best hospitality that we’ve experienced in Morocco. All the food was phenomenal and tastes like “homemade food” absolutely delicious, we will never forget those soups and the yummy aubergine salad ? We HIGHLY recommend you to stay at Umnya Dune Camp at least once in your life, you won’t regret it for sure! Thank you so much again to all the team for making our stay absolutely memorable ?? we will return one day ?

We had a great experience in the Sahara thanx to Hassan! His place is an oase in the desert. The welcome is friendly, the food is perfect and his garden is beautiful. And the trip and overnight camp in the Sahara desert was something you won’t forget! Even the 3th time it was special…

Absolutely incredible time in the desert. Moustafa and his crew are incredibly hospitable and prepare delicious food every meal. Our hosts were experts on the area and nomad life, and driving through the desert we got to see a first hand experience of the life of many of their friends living and working in the desert. The music was likewise very impressive and a lot of fun to jam and dance with the team. The dunes at Erg Chigaga were incredible and well worth the voyage to see them. You won't be disappointed. Bring plenty of water!

An Oasis, Literally and Figuratively

Reviewed By Island_hopping_soul

With Auberge de la Palmeraie as a base you can relax and enjoy all that the property has to offer - delicious fresh food, friendly people, comfortable lodgings and a peaceful environment. But also available when staying at Palmeraie is an amazing desert adventure! My seven day booking included a five day trekking desert excursion, following a part of the ancient camel caravan route. If you have thought about visiting the desert then I highly recommend booking with Stephanie and Brahim at Palmeraie. With two expert guides and a couple of pack camels we trekked to the giant dune Erg Chigaga. Three delicious meals a day plus water and tea were provided. A tent is also provided but I recommend camping out under the stars, it is an incredible feeling! Along the way, my guides taught me about the surprising variety of plants and animals that call the desert home, including the elusive Fennec (desert) fox. Save a little space in your pack as there are fossils, minerals, and pottery shards to be found. Each day offered something new to see, shifting sands, rocky plains and unbelievable skies. My trip to Palmeraie and the Moroccan Sahara was the highlight of my six weeks in Morocco. I will simply say, book it, you won't be disappointed. -Scott Cronin
