Overview

Nestled in the Sahara Desert, Paradis Du Sahara provides a truly unforgettable experience. You'll stay in a desert oasis near attractions like the Erg Chebbi Dunes, the bustling market town of Rissani, and the charming village of Merzouga. Explore this unique landscape through various activities, including camel treks, dune buggy or 4WD excursions, desert trekking, and sand baths.

The tents at Paradis Du Sahara blend traditional Berber decor with modern comforts for a cozy and unique stay. Previous guests have commented about the extra-comfy beds, ensuite bathrooms (though simple), and the availability of hot water, heating, and air conditioning. The details in the tents, including woven animal hair materials for insulation and noise reduction, highlight the authentic Moroccan culture. Experience a serene atmosphere as you relax on private outdoor patios complete with Moroccan couches, or indulge in the luxury of the Royal Tent, featuring an intimate restaurant and pergola for outdoor dining.

Paradis Du Sahara's unique experiences set it apart from other desert camps. Enjoy Moroccan culture through traditional cooking classes or unwind with yoga lessons amid the enchanting desert landscape. For a truly unforgettable experience, partake in astronomy lessons under the unending night sky. Plus, you'll get friendly and knowledgeable staff, authentic character, and superb service.

We took a camel ride to the camp. The tents were very quirky with ensuite and comfortable beds. We did have a couple or power outages but soon transferred to the generator. Food was typical Moroccan and finished off with a drumming demo from the cooks, camel owners and drivers. Read more
