Favorite Place on Earth

Pros: Khamlia is my favorite place on earth. I was last there over ten year ago, and when I returned this time I found it has gotten even better! Riad Gnaoua was super comfortable, but the best part is the extremely friendly community of people living and working there. The musicians, families, and staff were all so hospitable. And it's right by the dunes! Away from the more touristic environment of Merzouga. At Riad Gnaoua, you can walk out into the dunes on your own whenever you want. There are plenty of comforts, but also a chance to see a more realistic, local reality of living in the Sahara.

Pros: There's a music school beside teaching traditional dances and songs founded by the owner. A unfortunate experience.

Rencontre avec la communauté gnoua à Khamlia près de Mergouza

Pros: Endroit déjà un peu saharien hors des sentiers battus avec vue sur les dunes de l'Erg Cherbi où nous nous sommes promenés. Accueil chaleureux.Personnel attentionné. Bon wifi. Nous avons apprécié l'ambiance musicale gnoua et les délicieux repas dont la pizza berbère et le tajine. Ils ont aussi gentiment assuré notre transport de et vers Mergouza.

Cons: Tout était ok

Sentirte como en casa: tranquila y segura. Sentir el Desierto por todas partes: día y noche.

Pros: La hospitalidad y gran amabilidad de Zaid. Además, resalto la alta disponibilidad para resolver cualquier necesidad que me ha surgido. Quiero expresar mi agradecimiento por facilitarme la estancia durante los 15 dias que he estado, me he sentido muy cómoda como si estuviese en mi casa. Por último, agradezco el gran trabajo del personal relacionado con el restaurante: las cocineras y los camereros. También quiero poner en valor la tranquilidad y calma del alojamiento, así como resaltar que inspira seguridad.

Cons: El único inconveniente es que el calor era excesivo y a veces al aire acondicionado le costaba aclimatar la habitación.

Cons: كان الطقس حار جدا مع وجود عاصفة رملية مما أدى إلى عدم فعاليه نظام التكيف ، لكن الاخوه المسؤولين قاموا بتغير الغرفه لنا ، مشكورين
