Desert Backpackers Camp

Hamid was absolutely nice as Host

Everything was perfect , the owner hamid is very helpful and can lead u what to do in a low budget , local prices

Very close to the dunes.l and a bit out of the way of the very touristy area which I liked l Hamid was very chill and helpful, came to meet me a good 10 min walk away and left me breakfast for the morning as I was leaving very early. Felt very safe and relaxed.

Everything

Nothing

Desert Backpackers Hostel is not like the hostels you stayed in before for starters Hamid build the hostel himself, the walls are 30cm deep, I loved the feeling of living in that hostel, I could see the camels and the sand dunes from the window, it was very hard to leave. Hamid is from the area so is good for information about places to go and can be helpful in organizing things as he has many connections. I loved the breakfast every morning, am a coffee drinker but was converted to a tea drinker as the tea was great!

Calm, and tidy, this place has everything to have a nice stay in Merzouga

Perfect for solo traveler, clean and just the door into the desert

Hamid is a great host, helpful, friendly, resourceful and a very good cook above all that. I had a great time in his little hostel, got some good rest and enjoyed the view of the dunes. He knows the area by heart and gave me many cool recommendations on what to do around Merzouga, and even made it possible for me to spend one night in the desert and have my bicycle carried there by car. Thanks a lot Hamid !

Amazing place with amazing owner, right at the edge of the desert. Very cosy place with everything you need. I really recommend camel trip to Nomads with a night at the desert. It is an unique experience. Hamid can tell you a lot of interesting things about Berber culture and is really caring and will help you with everything. Stay there was the best part of my trip to Morocco.

Hamid was a great host. He let us into the property at 6 in the morning, prepared us a great breakfast, helped us book a desert tour, gave us advice on how to get around in Merzouga, offered us a lift to the centre and dropped us at the bus station super early in the morning. The accommodation was great with a fully equipped kitchen and a very good shower. Even though the outside temperature was cold at night, the building was very warm and cosy and Hamid offered us an extra blanket just in case.
