Staff was AMAZING , they went above and beyond to make an unforgettable experience!! They arranged an early check in, lunch option even though the restaurant was closed at that time. they were super friendly! Considering we were in the middle of Desert , The tent was comfortable, clean with private bathrooms. It has a beautiful view of the Sahara Desert from the camp , and they offer camel rides from the camp to see Sunset and Sunrise. We were celebrating my husband Birthday and they did a great surprise to him! I highly recommend Sanmao Luxury Camp to experience Sahara Desert in a unique and comfortable way. Best

4/10 Poor

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Had high expectations for this camp given the price but was generally disappointed. Communication was not great. Unclear on how to get there, no prior messages so we ended up driving in with our AWD SUV but DO NOT ATTEMPT this. We got lucky and had a hard compact sand... Which is not always the case. Food is average to good, room is meh, AC wouldn't not really work (shuts off after a while and very weak) snowboard missing the bindings... Staff is nice but that's to be expected. Another annoying thing is that is that it shares the same space with ABDO camp and they wouldn't turn off the lights at night so couldnt see the stars not to mention it right next to a bunch of other camps so it was not that quiet and still quite a bit of light pollution. Also weak wifi but wtv, the whole point is to disconnect.

El hotel está en las dunas. Un lugar espectacular. La limpieza muy mala, y mantenimiento del hotel mala. la basura que ves en todos lado al rededor del pueblo, y dunas es alarmante.

השהות שלנו ב־Sanmao Desert Luxury Camp הייתה פשוט מדהימה. המקום מוקפד עד הפרט הקטן ביותר – אוהלים מרווחים, נקיים ונוחים מאוד, עם אווירה חמימה ונוף מדברי עוצר נשימה מכל כיוון. השירות היה אישי, מקצועי ונעים – הרגשנו שמטפלים בנו מכל הלב. במיוחד נהנינו מהשקיעות הקסומות ומהשקט המושלם שמסביב. ארוחת הערב הייתה טעימה ומיוחדת, והחוויה של לשבת סביב המדורה תחת שמיים מלאי כוכבים הייתה מרגשת. למי שמחפש פינה שקטה, אותנטית ומפנקת בלב הטבע – זה המקום. חוויה מומלצת בחום – בטוח שנחזור

Sanmao Desert Luxury Camp הוא מקום יוצא דופן ביופיו. הנוף עוצר נשימה – דיונות אינסופיות, שקיעות מרהיבות ושקט שממלא את הנשמה. האוהלים מפוארים, נוחים ומעוצבים בטוב טעם, עם שילוב מושלם בין יוקרה לאותנטיות. הצוות היה אדיב, מסביר פנים ודאג להכל עם חיוך. ארוחת הערב תחת שמי הכוכבים, עם מוזיקה מסורתית ומדורה חמימה, הייתה רגע שלא אשכח. זה המקום המושלם להתנתק מהעולם, להתחבר לטבע ולחוות את המדבר בצורה הכי מיוחדת שיש. ממליץ/ה מכל הלב – חוויה של פעם בחיים!

Keine Rückkehr

Das einzige Hotel in 10 Tagen Marokko wo wir uns nicht wohl und nicht willkommen gefühlt haben. Es wird in den Annehmlichkeiten viel versprochen was nicht stimmt. Es gab nur 1 Restaurant, die Klimaanlage funktionierte über die Mittagshitze nicht (Gründe dafür waren nicht klar). Es gibt keinen Raumservice. Internet/Wifi funktionierte praktisch nie und es gab nur in den Dünen Mobile-Empfang. Es gibt keine Bar oder Coffee-Shop. Der Manager konnte etwas Englisch aber sonst konnte das Personal nur Arabisch oder Berberisch (Translation Apps mussten helfen). Es gibt keinen Coworking Space, keine Konferenzzentrum, kein Wellness-Center. Jegliche Information mussten aktiv erfragt werden und es gab kein Einführung in Zimmer oder Hotel. Das Restaurant ist nur genau für Frühstück und Abendessen geöffnet. Das Abendessen kostet extra und war das teuerste unserer ganzen Reise und sicher nicht das Beste. Hier werden wir sicher nicht zurückkehren. Das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis stimmt nicht. Die Lage des Camps ist aber sehr gut. Es hat am gleichen Ort ein anderes Camp das besser organisiert zu sein scheint.
