If you want to visit the Sahara, I would recommend above any other hotel in Merzouga
Pros: The owner and staff were excellent, the food was fantastic and they really made our stay special by going the extra mile. After checking out, they must have done a quick check of the room and came running out to the car and return my wife’s wedding ring which she had left in the bathroom….. we couldn’t believe it and I would say I doubt that would of happened anywhere in the world. Because they are out of the main streets of Merzouga you don’t get the noise of quad bikes etc …

Pros: Beautiful hotel in a beautiful location. Don't even hesitate, just book it. Staff will go beyond their means to accommodate you. Just sit in the pool and look at the dunes, relax... It's a perfect place for it. You'll stay in a place owned for generations, surrounded by local and owner families. And if you're nice enough they'll treat you like family :) Don't forget to book a Sahara jeep excursion with Hassan, hotel owner cousin. Great guy, recommended!
Cons: Ignore comments about sand or bugs etc. You're choosing to stay right on the edge of Sahara desert and guess what, you'll get some amount of sand on your doorstep. Maybe even occasional ant or bug. You can't avoid it, otherwise it's a very clean and nice place to stay. Stupid people will complain about stupid things, ignore them.

Awesome Desert Experience (highlight of our holiday)
Pros: Maborak was a fantastic host. The minute we booked, he was happy to pick us up personally from the Dream Café which was very much appreciated as I had come down with a fever from the long 9-hour bus trip from Fes. Thank you Maborak for your generous hospitality and your amazing hotel - with its cool pool and expansive views of the dunes - we appreciated all your help with tours, transport, advice and your kindness and would highly recommend Hotel Takojit for anyone seeking an authentic desert experience. Oh, and we hands down say it was the best Morroccon meal we had. 👏
Cons: Nothing, we loved everything about our stay.

Magical
Pros: It was truly magical, the house, the breathtaking view, and the entire atmosphere. You can only truly understand the feeling once you have been there yourself. The service was absolutely exceptional, with so much care, attention, and time devoted to us. Every detail made us feel welcome and cherished. We have never tasted couscous so delicious in our lives, a true masterpiece. Thank you, dear chef, for your passion and skill. We are deeply grateful for the beautiful and unforgettable moments we shared together. This experience will stay in our hearts forever. Once again, thank you to each and every one of you for making our stay so special. We truly look forward to returning very soon.
Cons: I can’t think of anything.

Great stay.
Pros: It was a great accomodation, a beautifull view at the dessert. We stayed for two nights and the breakfast, lunch and dinner where good. The owner arranged a 4x4 tour in the morning and a camelride by sunset for us. Both tours where very nice

Pros: Takojt was perfect! It has a very friendly and peaceful atmosphere, the staff and owner are amazing. They organised a camel trip into the desert and I spent the night in a treehouse! The food was good, the room was clean and comfortable, if you want to relax and see the desert, Takojt is the perfect place.

Super host in a super kasba in a super good location!
Pros: Super friendly, relaxed and helpfull host. He is crazy about dessert driving in al aspects ( rally, races, recreation; bikes, quads, buggies, etc ) The location is situated on the edge of the dunes - and for us: staying 2 nights, with an early rise on 1 day to see sunrise + another day to see sunset is much better and more convenient than all the ‘ride a dromedary and stay in a tent in the dessert. ( These tents are also on the edge of the dunes and it’s mass tourism !) It’s easy and not risky or dangerous to walk a few km’s in the dessert - the host can help you.
Cons: It is lovely and will be even nicer when the pool is completed later this year.

Great experience, hope to return one day!
Pros: An enchanting palace, very close to the dunes and with very good facilities. Food was good, and the breakfast is buffet. The hosts are great!
Cons: Room was very hot, it has AC but can't sleep with AC turned on. Can't open windows because of the sand of the desert. Slept with the door open to cool the room.

Excellent host, really loved it
Pros: I had a fantastic New Year's Eve celebration at Takojt. The food was excellent, the pricing reasonable, and the host's warm welcome added to the positive experience. The presence of running warm water was a nice touch, and the host's kindness truly made the stay memorable. Highly recommend!
