The kindness and availability of all the staff. They are simply amazing!

We spend only one night in the camp but we enjoyed a lot. All the staff was there at any moment to make sure we had everything we needed, thanks a lot to Youssef (our camel’s guide) who was really nice and provide us a beautiful experience, thanks to our driver was really touching and shared with us a part of his life and thanks also for the dinner and amazing breakfast, the singing and dancing night, the guys playing were incredible and it felt like we were in another world for a while. Overall it was a super memorable experience thanks to those people who welcome you from their heart, they were really the highlight of this experience. Ana Alice and Anthony

A great location between the dunes. Every staff member goes above and beyond to make sure you are taken care of. Food was good (amazing breakfast!), beds were comfortable and blankets were warm (during the cold February nights). The camel rides were very nicely organized, so was the pick-up/drop-off at Kasbah Le Berger. Recommended!

Super nice camp, amazing hospitality and delicious food. It was very easy to find, we were transported using a 4x4, dinner was really good, we saw the sunrise and the sunset too.

Thank you to all the staff of Ali and Sara's Desert Palace who spares no effort in making your experience in the sahara desert enchanting. very comfortable accomodation, excellent food and very pleasant sunset and sunrise excursions. Afffrica!!!!!!!!

This was the highlight of our trip to Morocco. Everything about our time at Ali & Sara’s was amazing. Mohammad and all the other guys at the camp made us feel very welcome and safe. I highly recommend staying here for more than one night!

Everything, best day in the trip. The tents are great. Private bathrooms in perfect conditions. You almost cannot fell that you are in the desert. The camp manager is super kind and handles any unexpected issue. The dinner is good as well as the music around the fire. The transfer between the road and the can is also fun.

Absolutely everything exceeded expectations. The breakfast was great the staff was amazing and made us feel comfortable and taken care of all at once. It was the highlight of our trip. Can’t express how good Mohamed, Said, Josi and the rest of the team were.

Service here is amazing. We feel like home here. Very good food and facilities although far from towns and in the desert. Individual bathroom and hot water is available(although limited but reasonable in desert) Right in the middle of sand dune. Watching sunset and sunrise is the best experience ever

The guys come pick you up with a 4x4 to take you to the camping. They welcome you with tea and show you the tents which are really nice! Each tent has it's own bathroom which was in really good conditions. After the camel ride at sunset we had a consistent dinner with tagine, veggie soup and fruit. We danced and sang around the fire with all the staff who was lovely and caring throughout the whole experience. Highly highly recommend a night here
