Les chandelles

We were very pleased for the hospitality of the owner Said. He was available for us a any moment and he explained a lot about the culture of the place. Very nice views from the rooftop.

Wunderschöne Lage direkt über einer Dattelpalmenoase. Ländlich anmutend, mit frischer Luft und einer angenehmen Ruhe. Ein unglaublich netter und herzlicher Gastgeber, der uns ein tolles Frühstück in seinem schönen Garten zubereitet hat. Wirklich zu empfehlen! Hat unsere Reise sehr bereichert.

Nous avons été accueilli chaleureusement et nous avons profité d’un excellent petit déjeuner.

It was set back in the old section and very quiet, away from the center of Tinghir but only 5 min away.

It was not the easiest to locate.

Great experience with the host, really felt like home, he was available all the time. We talked about the Berber and nomad culture. Hot shower and working heating/AC in the room, close to the canyon. When driving stick to the main road until you see the sign for Les Chandelles.

L'accueil était super, la propreté était parfaite, et l'accueil de Saïd était incroyable. Saïd est la perle de Tinghir.

Said a été un hôte d’une gentillesse et douceur incroyable, aux petits soins. Le rapport qualité prix est top !

L’ospitalità

Les Chandelles is located at the edge of a beautiful Palm Oasis. But what made our stay spectacular was the host, Said. He was happy to share stories with us and even invited us to dinner (which we paid for the following day), and I can confidently say it was the best cous cous I had in my whole stay in Morocco. The following day, we asked him some direction to visit the Berber neighborhood in Tinghir, and he called his brother who showed us around.

Said "invited" us for dinner, but the following day there was an awkward moment in which we went to leave him a tip and he said it was not enough to cover the dinner - totally fair (and it turned out to be very inexpensive), but perhaps it could have been explained a bit better to begin with.
