A perfect Riad with starry sky and Sahara views!
Pros:

When we arrived we were greeted warmly by the staff and given traditional Berber Whisky. Although we hadn't pre-arranged to have a meal at the Riad staff spoke with the kitchen and made it possible for us. The food was plentiful and delicious, soup, salad, chicken tagine and breads. Our room was spacious and warm with a hot shower. The decor throughout the Riad was calming with plenty of areas to relax. The rooftop has a view of the Sahara. This was lovely to see in the morning as we arrived at night. There is car parking. From here you can travel on to the sahara desert. There was so many choices for breakfast including Berber eggs, crumpets and pancakes. There was also fresh fruits. Outside there is a charming pool area with plenty of areas to relax. At night the stars are shiny and bright.

Cons:

Everything and everyone was above our expectations. Highly recommend.

Goede prijs kwaliteit verhouding
Pros:

Behulpzaam personeel, via het hotel alle activiteiten kunnen boeken en ze brachten ons er naar toe en haalde ons weer op. Daardoor ook activiteiten privé kunnen doen en niet in grote groepen. Verder mooi zwembad en fijne kamers.

Goed voor 1 nacht
Pros:

Goed hotel voor 1 nacht
Als je daar heen gaat
Vond liggen iets minder
Maar dat komt omdat het ook wel een soort eind van de wereld is

Cons:

Onbijt was minder , maar dat kan ook aan mij liggen
Alleen maar mannen , denk dat ze het beter gaan doen als ze er vrouwen bij gaan betrekken

Hier wil je zijn!
Pros:

Als gastvrijheid ergens is uitgevonden dan is dat hier, wat een lieve jongens die hier werken. We werden hartelijk ontvangen met thee en hebben gezellig gepraat met hen. Onze kamer was super groot, mooi, schoon en de airco deed het goed. Je kunt hier heerlijk avondeten en ontbijten. Alles wat je vraagt wordt geregeld. Het zwembad in de tuin is lekker ruim en je hebt genoeg plekjes om te zitten. Alles klopt aan deze plek wauw!

Riad Merzouga dunes
Pros:

We came to the hotel on the recommendation of a friend. It was a great stay in this Riad. The rooms are beautiful and spacious, the decoration is super nice. The architecture and the spaces in Moroccan style, very beautiful. The attention of all the staff and the owner was excellent. The place allows you to rest comfortably and appreciate the beauty as well.
In addition to this the food is very good and plentiful.
Totally satisfied with the stay here.

Best Riad in merzouga
Pros:

An incredibly beautiful, and unique luxury Riat with stunning views of the desert. Hassan and every staff member were extremely welcoming and caring, making every minute of our stay like at home. The rooms have a unique interior design, which I haven’t seen elsewhere, not to mention how cozy the bed was with looks out the window to the desert horizon. The night stands are built into the wall with additional, window-like stands above your head to place additional night-objects—truly unique. Another unique detail were the roses placed alongside the soap/shampoo in the shower. Simply staying at this Riat is a relaxation therapy: it’s incredibly quiet, and the pool area and terrace are simply stunning, with seating and resting areas around the pool with incredible views of the desert horizon. You can watch the sunset from either one, and be amazed at the beauty of the Sahara or get on your back at one of the seating areas and gaze at the stars—a mesmerizing experience. When I sat down at the restaurant to eat breakfast, lunch or dinner, I truly felt like a queen. Dinner for one is a banquet, with 5 different courses of mouth-watering Moroccan food, served alongside tea, coffee, fresh pressed juice or anything else you request! I especially liked the apple smoothie made with banana and milk during breakfast: delicious!

Merzouga dunes Luxury Riad
Pros:

A Hidden Gem in the Heart of Merzouga!My stay at Riad

Merzouga Dunes was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed by the warm and friendly staff who went out of their way to make us feel at home. The hotel itself is stunning, with its traditional Moroccan architecture beautifully blending with modern comforts.

The rooms were spotless, spacious, and equipped with all the Western amenities you could need, offering the perfect blend of authenticity and luxury. The pool and garden areas were serene and meticulously maintained – the perfect oasis to relax after a day of exploring the dunes.

The food was another highlight – every meal was bursting with flavor, showcasing the best of Moroccan cuisine. Whether you're enjoying breakfast by the pool or dinner under the stars, the atmosphere is simply unbeatable.

If you're looking for a peaceful and luxurious retreat in Merzouga, Riad Merzouga Dunes is a must-visit. I can't wait to return!

Pros:

A Secret Treasure in Merzouga's Heart!My time at Riad Merzouga Dunes was a truly wonderful place. The staff was welcoming and friendly from the time we arrived, going above and beyond to make us feel at home. The hotel itself is breathtaking, skillfully fusing modern amenities with traditional Moroccan architecture. The accommodations offered the ideal balance of elegance and authenticity; they were immaculate, roomy, and furnished with all the conveniences of the West. After spending a day exploring the dunes, guests could unwind in the peaceful and well-kept garden and pool facilities. Another highlight was the food, which was excellent Moroccan cuisine at its finest. Each dish was flavored to the brim. Whether you are having breakfast or not

We can’t wait to come back!
Pros:

Highly recommend it!
The best riad/hotel experience we had in Morocco.
The room: spacious, air conditioned, clean and well-decorated!
The riad: amazing swimming pool to relax and swim when it’s too hot. An actual swimming pool unlike many other riads.
Activities: we did quad and morning visit of the dunes - and we loved it.
The food: the kefta and lemon chicken tagines were the best we had in our holiday .
Special thanks to Hassan, with who we shared some of our favorite memories in Morocco. He is one of a kind, treated us like friends and we will always remember him. Got to know the Berber history and culture. We look forward to coming back to the Riad one day !
