Hotel Review

“Sahara Luxe Camp” delivers the kind of desert stay that feels polished without losing its camp setting. Guests consistently describe a warm welcome and a strong sense of occasion, helped by the property’s garden, sun terrace, outdoor fireplace, and wide-open views around Merzouga on الطريق الوطنية رقم 13.

The accommodation leans toward comfort rather than roughing it. Room options include Deluxe Double, Triple, Quadruple, and Family formats, and the evidence points to private bathrooms, balconies, dining areas, wardrobes, and modern amenities. Reviews repeatedly praise the beds and the cleanliness, with one guest calling the tents luxurious and another highlighting how comfortable the sleeping setup was. That makes Sahara Luxe Camp a good fit for couples, small groups, and families who want a Merzouga hotel experience with more space and less compromise.

Food is another clear strength. Breakfast is available, and the scraped FAQ lists vegetarian, halal, American, and buffet choices. On site, guests have two restaurants to choose from — Auberge transsahara and Transsahara — plus a bar. Reviewers also mention eating well here, which matters in a destination where dinner can be part of the experience, not just a convenience.

Facilities are broad for a camping property. Free WiFi, free off-site parking, an outdoor fireplace, a beauty salon, and ski-to-door access all add practical value, while the activity list goes well beyond the usual desert camp offer. Guests can arrange hiking, cycling, skiing, walking tours, bike tours, horse riding, local-culture tours, evening entertainment, beauty services, and happy hour, though some may cost extra.

At 4.6 km from the centre of Merzouga and about 120 km from Moulay Ali Cherif Airport, Sahara Luxe Camp suits travelers who want a base for active desert days and relaxed evenings. Couples rate the location especially highly, and the 9.9/10 score from 85 reviews suggests this is a Merzouga hotel that earns its “Exceptional” label.
