We spent 3 nights at Dar Morocco having travelled from the UK on our motorbike.. it was the most ideal location for the pilot and co-pilot to rest and recovery from our dusty and dramatic journey.. Our welcome was warm and gracious, the staff were kind and attentive, our room was spacious, clean and well appointed. We had a day by the pool and the staff arranged for us to go further into the desert by 4x4 on the other. The food was good and plentiful. Add this to a stunning location, with the hotel set back from the sealed road overlooking a classic dune landscape with sunrise and sunsets to wonder it exceeded all our hopes and expectations. We would love to return and recommend.

Excellent service, arrived on the bus from Fes at 6am. They welcomed me in well in advance of my check-in time. They served me breakfast whilst I waited for my room to be ready and gave me a place to rest and keep my bags safe. They were very helpful during my stay. One night I said I was staying out late to photograph the stars, they knocked on my door later that evening to ensure I was back before locking the main door, very attentive. The manager also gave me a ride to the bus station on the last day of my stay, after giving me a place to wait until the bus departure. Room was clean and spacious, and it's very close to the sand dunes, less than 5 minute walk. My recommendation is to stay here, I will definitely be back.

Dar Morocco was incredible, the staff were so kind and friendly and accommodating. The food was amazing, the location was unbeatable. Near enough to the town to get food but also right across from the dunes with no obstruction of view. Looking out my window and taking afternoon strolls through the dunes were amazing. We also spent ample time relaxing by the pool. The rooms are also enormous. We had the opportunity to chat with Mustafa our last night and talk about growing up in Merzouga which was wonderful to hear about!

There was nothing we didn't like, we enjoyed every second!

Dar Morocco is a beautiful hotel in the Moroccan Saharan desert. From the moment we were welcomed with the traditional mint tea, we felt at home. The children were enamored by the pool (perfect temperature) and the parents were happy to watch them frolic from the cool sitting area. The architecture of the hotel is pure luxurious Moroccan, without being over the top. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, with the air conditioning we desperately needed, even in the springtime. Dinner was a modern take on Moroccan cuisine and we enjoyed every morsel, from the surprising salad that included tuna, cheese, and avocado, to the flavorful and tender roasted chicken with green beans, rice, and roasted potatoes, to the refreshing fruit for dessert. Traditional bread and olives were provided as well, of course. Breakfast was a selection of pastries and jams with a Berber omelet and freshly squeezed orange juice and coffee. It was a delicious and light start to our day exploring the wonders of the desert. The staff is wonderful - solicitous without being cloying - and eager to make your stay as comfortable and memorable as possible. The only downside to our stay is that it couldn’t be longer!

Highly recommended! Newly opened riad, the hall and rooms are spacious, new and clean, with high speed wifi. Breakfast and dinner are plentiful and delicious, and the staff is super warm and friendly. The location is great, opposite the riad is the Sahara desert. You can see the desert sunset from the roof, and you can see many stars at night! Dinner was taken in the spacious vestibule of the riad. We had a rich and delicious four-course dinner on the edge of the desert and under the stars. It was very satisfying and dreamlike. After the meal, I spoke at length with the riad staff. It turned out that they are family members who run the riad and are also the chefs of the riad. Multi-talented Moroccans always wear several hats. Listening to them talk about desert life and Muslim religious views was one of the most evocative experiences of my trip. Notably, after we left the next morning, we returned to the riad to use the toilet at midday. The staff were also very welcoming and friendly. We had to wait until dusk before our next trip (camel ride). The staff even turned on the air conditioning in the waiting room and allowed us to rest there for a few hours. It was so nice!

The location of the hotel was perfect and the structure itself was very nice. Quite photogenic with the pool in front of the dunes and nice pool facilities. The rooms were very clean and spacious. We were lucky to get the rooms with the view. The staff were very friendly and kind. Most of them even spoke italian! We all enjoyed our stay!

This is a really great place to stay. It’s clean, comfortable, super relaxing, and the staff couldn’t be more helpful if they tried. Erg Chebbi is right behind the hotel. There’s not many places to stay where you can float in a (delightful) pool with such a splendid view. Food was very well prepared and served. Well done team Dar Morocco!!

Nothing

DAR Morocco Family were the best hosts ever!! A beautiful Riad, decorated with alot of love. Big bedrooms with amazing views of the dunes and the cool waters of the pool. Exploring the desert and the Berbere camps with our host was fantastic.

Loved Everything

Absolutely stunning riad and wonderful staff. I’ve never seen a place so clean and well maintained. It smells good everywhere, everything is so clean. I have no words to describe the feeling of swimming in the pool with a view of the dunes, which are 5-10min walk away.

A lovely welcome for two tired travellers from the staff- tea and snacks despite the lateness of our arrival. Communication was easy as they speak so many languages - full of information and answered all our questions. Our room was huge, beautifully decorated and most importantly for us Scottish people in the summer- had aircon. The breakfast was just out of this world amazing. So. Much. Food. Breads and eggs, cheeses, olives, many jams and honey... Delicious. I especially loved the Berber omelette. We will definitely come back here- probably in winter.
