Terre Des Etoiles

Such was the origin of the Agafay desert oasis project : to render to the ground the strength it communicates to me and create an oasis. What a gigantic project to consider greening the desert, surveying nearly 5 hectares of lunar land to cultivate, sow, plant, water and finally create harmony and life. This requires us to work permaculture as already initiated. You are welcome to pay a simple visit or to help in the garden ! The project is a place of co-creation and sharing on this Moroccan ground for the entire human and natural species. This project, I wanted it. Overall, with the whole team that maintain it alive, I strongly intend to share it with you. Each of the 30m² tents has its own bathroom and toilets with Tadelakt, a very comfortable bed, decorated in a moroccan style with Hotel standards requirements.

Could be spectacular…

I would love to give Terre Des Etoiles 5 stars but unfortunately I didn’t have an amazing experience. And I love the eco part of the camp. To start out with the positives I had been emailing Dina for a few months as my original stay was cancelled due to the lockdown in Morocco. They were really friendly and helpful over email correspondence and assisted me with transfers etc. On arrival I had a warm welcome and was shown to my tent (explorer). I’m not a camping person but this seemed sufficient for one night although there was no hot water any my lamps/electric didn’t work. Lunch at the camp was super expensive (£35) and there was no option for a La carte. I only fancied a snack/salad so didn’t make the best use of the buffet. However, there were a lot of options and all freshly prepared, the chef was also a delight, so if you come here for lunch come with an empty stomach! The staff were amazingly attentive to the point they’d rush over if I tried to pour water for myself. Dinner was fine. Only one option for both starter, main and dessert, but my sever did accommodate my request for a veggie main. Once again, the staff at the bar were amazing and friendly. My main issue was with the male receptionist who thought it was fine to try and proposition me for sex when I was enjoying a fire outside my tent after midnight. I gave him the brush off but he kept persisting for a long time which is not fine. I don’t mind a chancer but the sleaziness and persistence was not ok. Especially as I was the only person that night staying in my camp section. It was so uncomfortable that I wanted to leave that night but there was no where to go (or a lock on a door!). All I wanted was a chilled night enjoying the stars with a wine and a book, but he ruined this. Not cool. I did not feel safe and I do not say this lightly. I did mention this on check out the next morning but there was no response or follow up. It was a great experience until then. So, I would recommend this camp to groups and couples but not solo female travellers which is an absolute shame as it is a spectacular place with amazing staff (par one!).

Agafay Luxury Camp

Few experiences can beat an overnight camp in the Desert, and Agafay Desert Luxury Camp takes this to a level of luxury unexpected in such isolated surroundings, far from the mass tourism of Marrakech. Dine under the stars, fall asleep to the desert wind, and swoon with the romance of it all.

pleasant and clean

Reviewed By KaitlinhDale

This was our 3th stay at Agafay luxury camp and it absolutely did not disappoint. Each time we return, the site exceeds our expectations. We stayed in luxury suit tente this time and it was perfect. Very clean, comfortable and with all of the facilities you would need. The outdour bath was great and the perfect size to sit comfortably. The bar was a brilliant addition with a wide selection to suit everyone's tastes. We did Quad tours for the second time and had a blast. Badr and zaynab really made for such a fun experience. Above all else, the staff here are incredible and what keeps us coming back each time. They have such a natural way of making you feel at home and like long lost friends. All team made our stay one to remember. Could not recommend this site more and we will absolutely be back for visit number4

The White Camel Lodge

AMAZING PLACE TO CHILL OUTSIDE OF MARRAKECH

Reviewed By ivetteli

The White Camel Lodge is a great place to visit when you want to get away from the hustle and bustle of Marrakesh. I have been on numerous occasions and each time it has been top notch. I was recently at the White Camel to escape the heat wave in Marrakesh in mid-May. What a blessing to have a pool, great views, magnificent service and delicious food! Kudos to the White Camel team for running such a wonderful establishment!

Spent a couple nights stargazing at the emeraude luxury camp! Great food and service! This is a unique experience for those who want to really get a feel for Morocco! Once in a lifetime chance to enjoy two things that make Morocco unique, geography and local hospitality!

Les Jardins d'Issil

Located at km 13 of the Ourika road, along the Zaraba canal, the Jardins d'Issil stretch over more than 50,000 m2. Calm and conviviality are the key words of this establishment where nature takes back its rights. A desire to recharge and leave the tumult of Marrakech? Les Jardins d'Issil is the perfect address! This place created in 2005 is a haven of peace. A lush garden takes place on a large plot Where the Caïdales tents are built in rooms and suites. In total, the site has 15 tents, 3 African houses and a small house around the infinity pool. Les Tentes Caïdales are comfortable and offer services worthy of a hotel room with terrace, Dressing, bathroom and reversible air conditioning. The architecture respects the traditions of the country, with an art deco touch that gives a hint of modernity.

Abdrrahim Gallouti driver with Asni Transport

Reviewed By Harveys48

This is the fourth time we have visited Morocco and we always ask for “Abdou” by name. He is an excellent driver, safely negotiating busy town centres and motorways alike. He always keeps his vehicle in immaculate condition. He has an excellent instinct for what interests us, local markets, historic places and we feel safe and well cared for with Abdou. He chooses local guides personally. He finds places to eat that offer good food and good value. When we arrive at a Riad, he always ensures that we and our luggage are safely conveyed to where we are staying. We are on a 4 centre tour this time which we would not have wanted to undertake without Abdou.

Amazing desert experience

Reviewed By Pamroesler

Very beautiful surroundings…. Camels great you at entrance. Enter into a desert paradise with a swimming pool that blends into the surroundings. Tents that have air conditioning, shower and private bathroom. Lovely deck adds to the charm. Wood burning stove for warmth in the winter. Candle lit dining in open front tents. Only reason I did not give Inara a 5 is by no fault of theirs. A neighboring camp blasts music late into the evening. When a person wants a peaceful rest in the desert, it is quit disturbing to not have silence.

We booked a stay with them at the promise of being refunded if COVID regulations would cancel our trip. The boarders closed and all our flights got cancelled. We signed a contract yet the owner is now purposefully ignoring our emails and blocking our reviews. We are still waiting for our promised reimbursement. NOT PROFESSIONAL/ NOT AN HONEST BUSINESS.
