The accommodations were okay, but even though we were on a customized tour, we felt like one of many other groups of tourists on their way to the desert. From the super loud singing and tambourine greeting in the lobby to the buffet dinner and breakfast, nothing felt personalized. The Xaluca Grup is quite the commercial establishment! The hotel is...

Exotic in every way yet completely comfortable. Room 38 was large, well maintained and clean. Breakfast and dinner are buffet style and sandwiches or pizza is available for lunch by the pool. This seems to be the jumping off point for all manner of Sahara excursions from camel safaris to motorcycle rallies.  One evening as we were going to dinner,... More

Beautiful hotel with extremely comfortable beds. Pool area was very relaxing place to have a drink. Buffet meals were a tad bland but certainly acceptable. More

Good jumping off point for a desert adventure. New, but exotic construction with nice touches like fossil sinks. Dancers greet you, and perform for dinner. More

The rooms were very "berber" or what one imagines a berber room would be like. It was a bit over the top in gimmicks like the polished granite was basin complete with embedded fossils. The bed was on a slab of concrete and it was easy to stub a toe in the dark. Having said that it was comfortable and... More

This property was part of our Moroccan tour itinerary. We arrived early in the evening after a long drive. We were greeted by a group of Berber dancing women, and the accompanying band! It was actually very entertaining to watch them sing and dance. Since our driver did the check-in for us, I can’t comment on their service at check-in,... More

Although it felt a bit Disney-esque, the rooms were very large and well-appointed. Had a few difficulties figuring out how the heating system worked - it was often either too hot or too cold. The architecture was attractive and the central courtyard had a pool (it was too cold to consider swimming) and replica tents and other Berber-like paraphenalia. Dinner... More

The Xaluca chain is a reliable, upscale flag especially in smaller towns. Erfoud is a gateway town for trips out to the nearby dunes and many visitors base here for daytrips to the sand. There are lots of choices for lodging but we had few complaints about this hotel. It is well designed, has a nice bar and is set... More

Stayed as part of a small group tour with VJV. Welcomed by a troupe of musicians (very noisy). Rooms arranged in blocks to resemble a Kasbah. Room OK – decorated to look like a Berber's tent, but all mod cons – including fridge, hair dryer and two comfortable single beds which could be pushed together to make a double. Separate... More
