Auberge la Source

I stayed at The Auberge La Source in the Sahara Desert and it was truly an unforgettable experience, largely thanks to the incredible staff, specially to the Beréber Brothers (Zaid, Hamid & el Omar). From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with warm smiles and genuine hospitality that made me feel right at home. The Quad biking experience is a must. It was not included in the package but definitely it’s worth it. Riding through the stunning desert landscape was absolutely breathtaking. The camel ride was an incredible adventure. Watching the sunset over the dunes was the highlight of the ride. The overnight at the camp was a nice adventure too. The tent was beautiful designed, spacious and cozy. The night sky was a stunning with stars twinkling brilliantly in the clear desert air. The evening entertainment, with traditional music and dancing, created a lively atmosphere that I thoroughly enjoyed. It was an unforgettable day filled with excitement and incredible sights!

i spent three weeks in morocco and la source was my best auberge experience. the staff and owners were helpful on another level with everything. i had some trouble that could have become serious on the last day, but it was solved only because of their trust in me. i intend to come back to this wonderful place.

This is a fantastic hotel on the edge of the Sahara Desert. A very warm welcome was received. Amazing camel ride and camp dinner then entertainment afterwards. Absolutely magical. The hotel room was spacious and clean and very comfortable. The breakfast was great and plentiful. Could not recommend this place highly enough. It is an absolute bargain and a real gem.

Incredibly special experience. I’m stunned to see the 1* overall rating as I found throughout my stay nothing but clean venues and friendly/helpful staff. The food was good, my tent (despite being in the desert) had no insects, the camels were treated much better than I’d have ever imagined and everyone, especially Hamid, was super friendly, well informed and patient, even during time of Ramadan, where you’d imagine them to be tired and hungry. I trekked out before midnight and managed to witness a meteor falling (mind blowing) and somehow lost my phone out of my pocket 🙈 I told Hamid and we went in search of it, he even told me I could sit and wait and he’d follow the footsteps!! Together we somehow found my phone and enjoyed a mint tea together, whilst speaking about everything from the animals in the desert in both summer and winter, the irrigation systems used, the differing of people and culture and traditions across the country and its history. I learned so much during this trip and couldn’t recommend it more! Absolute must visit 💫

we didn’t book and still received such a warm welcoming! stayed in the desert for a night and the hospitality and warmth of the family there is wonderful! highly recommended :) don’t miss the poooool 🌞
