Cafe Maison d'hôtes Riad Amar

In the Ksar Hassilabied

The Cafe Maison d'hôtes Riad Amar occupies a traditional building in the ksar of Hassilabied, laid out around a central patio as local architecture dictates. It is a building designed first and foremost to manage the heat: the rooms open onto a cool inner courtyard, away from the facades exposed to full sun.

The terrace, upstairs, offers a direct view of the Erg Chebbi dunes — a point reviews confirm regularly, especially for sunrises and sunsets watched from there without having to leave the property.

The patio and the air-conditioned rooms

The traditional patio is the heart of the house: meals are often taken there, in the shade, away from direct exposure. The rooms, meanwhile, have individual reverse-cycle air conditioning, a real comfort once night falls since temperatures can drop sharply after sunset, even in the height of the hot season.

Eating without leaving the property

The on-site restaurant saves you from having to hunt for somewhere to eat in the evening in a village where options remain limited after nightfall. The food stays Moroccan and local, with southern staples: tajines, harira, and often a Madfouna prepared on request.
