I cannot recall the name of a poem I read some time back regarding the spiritual soul of the desert. The words were touching and brought me to the brink of emotional, mental, and spiritual understanding of the unity the writer experienced with his desert voyage. The words conveyed a journey shared by ancients’ desperately craving the knowledge of their... More

It's hard to find the words to express what a wonderful time we had here...it was perfect in every way...If you are planning a trip to the Moroccan Sahara, I highly recommend staying here rather than in Merzouga where it's filled with tourists and people trying to sell you camel trips. If you want peace and quiet and absolute bliss... More

Thank goodness I learned about this guesthouse on Trip Advisor or we would have stayed in Merzouga, which would have been fine but probably not as interesting. Khamlia is small and windswept, with local evening entertainment at the venue of the local Gnawa musicians. Dar el Khamlia is very friendly and comfortable with great food, and they organized a nice... More

I was always dreaming about camel trek in Erg Chebbi, but thanks to people from Dar el Khamlia, it has exceeded my expectations. The best thing is they will organise this trip even if you're travelling alone, like me. And believe me, they're gonna treat with such kindness and hospitality you will start being suspicious if the price isn't some... More

The desert, a small village and living in a traditional mud and straw house, this is Morocco. Leaving behind the busy Medinas and fancy Riads and seeing how the Moroccans really live. Blistering heat, wholesome food and a community that embraces you. Theres no hastle from hawkers of fancy living here, its all about kicking back, chatting with the locals... More

If you're heading for the dunes of Erg Chebbi, skip the resorts of Merzouga and head a few kilometers further for the most hospital Dar in Morocco! Enjoy the tajines cooked by Brahim, go for the dunes on a camel led by Addi and simply enjoy the serenity around you. We can do nothing else but to recommend this amazing... More

I have been to this wonderful place last month, was there with my two friends and we've enjoyed every single day. First, we have experienced what it's like to sleep in Bedouin tents in the dunes and then by staying for three days on this guetshouse.

Dar el Khamlia thanks Robert for the nice review of the guesthouse and as directed, wish to correct information he misunderstood, so that the clients do not mislead by wrong information. The owner of Dar el Khamlia is Brahim, so that was the first misunderstanding. The second was, that Mirabella (her name) from Czech rep. is guest and friend of... More
