We spent one night here at Erg Chebbi Camp in Merzouga in December. We arrived at their office in Merzouga town, where parking is available for anyone driving their own car. we were picked up from there with our luggage in a 4X4 to a nearby dune from where we took a camel ride. The 45-minute camel ride on the dunes to the campsite was amazing, with a 20-minute break to watch the stunning sunset amidst the dunes. Upon arrival, we were greeted with tea and snacks, followed by a delicious 3-course Moroccan meal with plenty of vegetarian options. The food was hot, fresh, and cooked on-site. Our room was clean, comfortable, and spacious. Although the heater wasn't very effective on a chilly December night, the high-quality blankets kept us cozy and warm. The only minor issue was the unpredictable hot water supply. The next morning, we woke and catch the sunrise, followed by a hearty breakfast. We were dropped back at the office in Merzouga around 10 am. Overall, Erg Chebbi Camp exceeded our expectations, offering an unforgettable desert experience.

Our two-night stay at Erg Chebbi Camp was fantastic! A special thank you must go to our incredible guide and host, Mustapha. His calm and friendly demeanor immediately put us at ease, and his insightful knowledge of the desert and local culture made our excursions truly enriching. He was always interesting to talk to and ensured we had everything we needed. He expertly organized our 4x4 excursion and magical sunset quad bike tour. The camp was very comfortable, and the included meals were great. We highly recommend Erg Chebbi Luxury Camp and especially appreciated Mustapha's wonderful hospitality!

Wonderful luxury tent in the desert. I stayed in a desert camp before but chose a luxury option this time. It was worth it to have a real bed and private bathroom. The decoration is nice with comfortable clean towels, semi warm shower water, soaps, plugs to charge devices, nice lighting. We were brought to the camp in a truck (included in the price, already a good experience). I was hoping a camel or quad ride to the camp would be optional but there was no availability. For the high price this would be something I would expect. The dinner and breakfast were good. Vegetarian options were available. There is wifi but that works now and then. 4G connection works. It was great to watch the sunset and sunrise and to watch stars. There was entertainment by the fire with music. We did not participate, it is not our thing :D Either case, kind host and my nephew enjoyed it a lot.

This location, in the dunes on the edge of the Sahara, is one of the most memorable in many years of traveling. The backdrop, whether sand, blue sky or stars, is really stunning. There are many camps in the area but what made our stay so special here was the care and friendliness of the staff. From initial booking, to helping to get cash and locate our transfer on leaving, Mustafa and his team were kind, smiling and especially welcoming to Jack our teenage son. They serve food, drummed and sang for us under the stars and chatted over tea with winning charm and warmth. Throw in a sunset camel ride into camp and a once in a life time, exhilarating quad bike to the top of the dunes and our 2 days at Erg Chebbi camp was truly wonderful and very memorable. Thank you!!!

Remember you are camping in the desert; the staff do everything they can, given a remote location, to make it a luxurious experience.

We stayed with Moha and Mustafa at their camp for two nights. They considered us their friends from the very first moment. The camp was nice and clean, it felt really inviting every time we got back there. We had a day trip to the Nomads with camels, it was well worth our money since we had a real life experience how the Nomads live their life. They invited us for lunch and after we had the chance to climb the highest dune in the area. I would recommend this program to everyone! Last night we had a bonfire at our camp, our hosts showed us their local instruments and gave us a very nice time during the evening. Overall we had a really nice experience while we stayed with our friendly hosts, I would definitely recommend this to everyone who wants to have an insight how life feels in the desert.

It was magical! The camp is nicer than other camps we passed on our way because it was more intimate (as it has less tents). The tent is beautifully furnished inside so it was very comfortable. But the best part of our stay was the staff! Mustafa and the team really did everything to make our stay comfortable and memorable. Mustafa is such a nice person with huge knowledge about Amazigh culture and nomad life. He took us on a 4x4 trip around the area, showed us nomad village, beautiful lake etc. We are vegetarians and there was no problem at all, staff cooked us really delicious, vegetarian meals. In the evening, they performed traditional Amazigh songs around the fire and we could admire beautiful sky with visible Milky Way! Everything was arranged to our liking, we could choose the hour the meals were being served and when to go on different additional activities. The desert is beautiful and we will remember this stay for a long time! Big thanks to Mustafa!

We honestly liked everything about this camp!

The rooms here were amazing, there was even wifi! We had such good food and they were amazing with my girlfriend's diet and allergies. We watched the sunset over Algeria the morning.

We expected to be a bit closer to the very high dunes but we could only seem them from a little bit of a distance. I'm sure if we really wanted to we could've taken a camelride there if we stayed another night, but we were there only for a night.

The staff is amazing. Mustapha and Saeed could have done more to make our stay comfortable and great. The excursion was interesting, we learned a bunch of stuff about the nearby town and the settled nomads. The menu was very good, the items were well prepared. The Berber omelette was very good. Dinner and breakfast was really good. Thank you

There was an issue where some bugs entered our tent, but the staff very kindly changed our tents and this wasn't an issue anymore. My bed was off kilter too, but overall nothing too bad. I'll say be ready for unexpected winds, they can get very loud in the night.

Located in the heart of desert and very clost to the big dune. The staffs are extremely warm and enthusiastic, tying all efforts to meet our request. Although we the only guest at that low season winter night, they still hosted firework and music dance for us. The food are soooooo delicous, better than average restaurant in Morocco.

There is no heating system or air conditioner in the room, so it was so cold after sun set.

Our time at Erg Chebbi camp was the absolute highlight of our two weeks adventure in Morocco. The camp's setup is nothing short of enchanting, providing us with the most comfortable sleep throughout our entire stay. Nestled amidst the golden dunes, the location is truly magical. The beds were incredibly cozy, perfect for the cool desert nights. What impressed us most was the attention to detail and the camp's commitment to being self-sustainable. The culinary experience was beyond words, and Moha and his team emerged as the most exceptional hosts, ensuring we felt not just welcomed, but truly at home. They went above and beyond, offering us insights into the culture and lifestyle of the desert people who call this extraordinary place home. The camel ride at sunset and the thrilling ATV adventure were nothing short of epic, especially the sunrise excursion, which remains etched in our memories. While I've encountered deserts elsewhere, the part of the Sahara where this camp is based is truly out of this world. It felt like stepping into a surreal, real-life screensaver. A piece of advice: consider extending your stay beyond a night to embark on a desert exploration tour. It provides a fascinating insight into the lives of the tribes and people of the desert. Looking back, we wish we had booked more than just a couple of nights – it's an experience worth savoring.
