Staying with Hamid was the best thing that could happen to us while travelling in Morocco. He was exceptionally friendly and considerate and we felt very safe and like at home. Hamid was very supportive (for example concerning activities in the region) and showed us the real local lifestyle. Oh, and he's a perfect chef. Would recommend to anyone! Thank you so much for everything, Hamid!

Clean. Hamid was great host. In little time we had, he managed to take us for a evening stroll to dunes and we have had very nice dinner prepared by him and breakfast as per our dietary request.

Firstly, the owner: Hamid is a genuine person with demonstrated integrity and curiosity. Staying here I learned a lot about the locals and the culture, I also took an authentic tour to the nomadic family that he organised. It was an unique experience that I'd advise anyone to opt for. The desert sky is like no other I have ever seen 🌌 Facilities: You will stay in a typical Berber house where the owner lives too- thus be sure you come back home with a true memory of the real experience living with a local. The place is clean and taken care of. Hamid flexibly adapted to the breakfast schedule- don't take that for granted - it's usually the other way around in the other accommodations. Let's be real- Morocco is not the place where you find the best coffee in the world, but you'll be lucky to get a pretty good one here, served with your breakfast.

Itsokay 😁

"Great authentic place with a wonderful and welcoming host"

10.0

Hamid is a very great host that really cares about his guests. I even got the chance to learn how to cook tajine and to learn some Spanish. And through this very authentic place I also learned a lot about the Berber culture as well as some part of the language. Of I come back to Merzouga I would definitely choose to stay with Hamid again! Thank you for the very great experience and days I had in Merzouga - it was definitely one of the highlights of my travels!!

everything was perfect

"Budget Stay in the Desert"

9.0

Great value Hamid is super friendly and happy to tell you about the area giving you advice and suggestions. We cooked together and went to stay in the desert with his Uncle who is a nomadic Berber. This felt far more authentic than the typical 'luxury' alternatives. I wish Hamid all the best in his business ventures.

"Thank you Hamid, you made us have the best time in Merzouga and I can 100 % recommend!"

10.0

In Hamid's place everything was perfect. Especially because he made us feel at home, was super friendly, helpful and available for any questions and to make sure we had a great stay. He helped us with acitvities in Merzouga and any wish we had. It was really nice to hang out with him. Also we booked quite late in the same evening and still could check-in without problems. The place was comfortable, really clean, cozy and with an amazing location, super close to the dunes. In fact you can see them from the door (wake up early for the sunrise if you can). Parking is available right next to the house. Breakfast was also good!

There is nothing that could have been better :)
