An Arabian Nights Dream at the Edge of the Dunes If you are traveling to Merzouga, skip the generic resorts and stay at Nasser Palace. This isn't just a hotel; it’s an authentic gateway to the Sahara. Located in Hassilabied, right at the foot of the Erg Chebbi dunes, it offers an experience that feels like stepping into a movie set. The Vibe: The architecture is stunning—a traditional artisanal kasbah with beautiful carvings and a sprawling central patio. Whether you’re lounging by the emerald-green pool or sitting on the terrace watching the sunrise over the sand, the "Arabian Nights" atmosphere is everywhere. The Desert Experience: They are experts at desert logistics. We did the camel trek into the dunes for sunset, and it was seamless. They also offer 4x4 adventures and sandboarding. Being only a 1-minute walk from the dunes means you can wander out to see the stars whenever you like. The Food: The kitchen here is incredible. Breakfast was amazing, they also serve lunch and dinner. Authentic Wellness: After a dusty day in the desert, the Beldi Spa and Hammam were a godsend. They even offer traditional sand therapy (Sablothérapie) during the summer months, which is a unique local experience you won't find at many other places. Exceptional Hospitality: The staff, led by Lehsen and El Bashir the manager, go above and beyond.

It was a great positive surprise upon arrival. Beautiful modern rooms, amazing views and facilities, but above all, the staff and service was outstanding, we felt like home. Can't think of a better place to stay to enjoy the desert. Our kids loved having the camels "across the street".
