We had a wonderful stay at Desert Villa. Youssef and his family are incredibly hospitable, making us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. They shared with us their amazing story, and it was truly inspiring. This place is not just a regular hotel or a Riad, but the realization of a dream come true. Every detail of the Desert Villa reflects the passion and dedication they’ve poured into the project, and you can feel it in every corner of the property. The warm welcome and the authentic atmosphere made our experience truly unique and unforgettable. We highly recommend staying here to not only enjoy the beauty of the desert, but also to discover the remarkable story that Youssef and his family have to share. The surrounding landscape is absolutely outstanding.

Era tutto perfetto

We had an exceptional stay at the beautiful Dessert Villa hotel. We arrived well before check in time due to early leave from camp site in the dunes. Despite the early hour, we were very welcomed by the owner, were able to check-in in our huge room with 2 sided views on the dunes and we spend the afternoon chilling at the very nice pool. We were very much spoiled by the owner bringing tea, fresh drinks and snacks to the terrasse near the pool. At lunch time we were offerend a free Friday-is-couscous-time lunch and at diner a wonderful and delicious 5 course diner for only 15 euro, which was under priced in our opinion compared to other riads we stayed in. The service in the restaurant was very good as well. When we left the next morning, the owner gave additional tips for our trip the next day. Overall a highly recommended, beautiful place, designed and build by the owner himself. Extremely high quality for the price you pay. We would definitely return here when visiting Merzouga again.

Nothing!

This was without doubt one of the nicest hotels I have ever stayed in. It is very new and immaculate in every way. The hosts, Youssef and Mohamed were extremely welcoming, friendly and helpful, as well as Mohcime, their young staff member. If you are staying in Merzouga, don’t bother looking anywhere else, as this property has it all, including a beautiful swimming pool. Five big fat stars.

Nothing

The pool, the decor, the doors, the art, the fountain, the look and feel welcoming, the staff and owner were friendly and gave great recommendations, breakfast was amazing and would stay at Desert Villa again, and recommend to others. The Best Hotel In town. The next day we did a Desert Camp and Camel ride, the owner is very knowledge able on the area of Merzouga

I really have no words to describe how welcoming and helpful the staff of this villa are! It is one of the reasons we would like to do this trip again. Honestly, everything was perfect. The room is big and spotlessly clean. The food is delicious! The best choice we could have made!

The warm hospitality and attention to detail. Every corner in the villa had a story to tell. Youssef and team are doing an amazing job taking care of every little need of guests. Every room is spotless clean. We had a special lunch specially curated as it was my husband’s birthday. The pool was clean too.

I rarely give top marks for a hotel as there’s always room for improvement but this hotel is as close to perfection as it gets. The two brothers who own and run it are the nicest guys you could hope to meet. Their Berber hospitality is second to none! The hotel is exceptionally clean as are the rooms, which are also well equipped with a large comfy bed with duvet and comfy pillows. I could see the sand dunes from my room. There is a nice dining room and social room. There is also an outside area boasting a pool and seating area. Rooms are air conditioned and have flat screen TV. Try to have dinner in their restaurant as the food is cheap and exceptional, honestly, you’ll struggle to find a better meal in town. Breakfast was also very good.

This place is absolutely stunning — a true oasis in the desert! Youssef and his team go above and beyond to ensure you are happy and well taken care of. They offer amazing excursions at very reasonable prices with wonderful guides who make the experience unforgettable. From the moment we arrived after a long journey, we were warmly welcomed with delicious Moroccan tea and local snacks — a perfect start to our stay. Youssef also kindly took us to watch the sunset in the desert and picked us up afterward, making the experience even more magical. The cuisine here is exceptional — we tried tajine for the first time, and it was simply incredible! Breakfasts are also delightful, especially the local dish similar to shakshuka — absolutely delicious. Our room had breathtaking views of the desert and dunes. The rooms, like the entire hotel, are tastefully decorated with attention to every detail, ensuring a warm and inviting atmosphere. Everything you need for a comfortable stay is provided, making it feel like a home away from home. Additionally, the internet speed is surprisingly good, allowing you to work seamlessly — something truly remarkable in the middle of the desert! I highly recommend this place — it’s a perfect blend of comfort, hospitality, and unforgettable desert charm! переведи на русский

An architectural masterpiece. A tour-de-force of design, inside and out. This is a beautiful and functional space, decorated by not a single redundant object. The floors and walls are sufficient - each tile considered and placed deliberately. A style that reflects the villa’s surroundings, minimal and essential. This place is a labour of love for Youssef, a humble man, high on life, who just wants to give. He works with Amar, a long time friend and an artist, whose work enhances the space and whose soul permeates it. These two are a dream team. If the desert is more than a mere gimmick to you, basing yourself at this villa is a necessity. Youssef and Amar will help you tap into the spiritual nature of the Sahara.
