Hotel Review

Erg Chebbi Camp & Activities is a confident choice for travelers who want the desert setting without giving up comfort. The camp sits in Erg Chebbi, and the atmosphere leans more refined than rustic, with a garden, terrace, restaurant, bar, and open-air spaces that make the most of the landscape.

The accommodation is all about luxury tents, and guests consistently describe them as spacious, clean, and well equipped. Reviews mention comfortable beds, private bathrooms with warm water, and thoughtful furnishings, which makes the camp a good fit for couples and anyone who wants a softer landing after a day in the dunes. The tent options start from USD 43, with higher-priced versions available for travelers who want to spend more on the room itself.

Food is a clear part of the appeal. Breakfast is available, including à la carte service, and the restaurant serves Moroccan cuisine with vegetarian, vegan, halal, and gluten-free options. Guests also praise the dinners, especially tagine, fresh bread, and homemade desserts, while the bar and high-tea service add a little extra flexibility to the day.

Facilities go beyond the basics in a way that suits a desert camp with ambition. Free WiFi and free private parking are available, and the property also offers ski-to-door access, a hot tub, yoga classes, film nights, and hiking. Service is described in reviews as professional, friendly, and not overbearing, which matches the camp’s overall tone: attentive without feeling staged.

For location, Erg Chebbi Camp & Activities is best for travelers coming to Merzouga for the dunes, sunrise views, camel treks, and desert activities rather than for city convenience. Couples rate the location especially highly, and the camp also works well for guests who want a Merzouga hotel with strong comfort, organized experiences, and a memorable setting.
