CASA OMAR Los Ojos del Desierto

In the Ksar Merzouga

CASA OMAR Los Ojos del Desierto occupies a house in the Ksar Merzouga, run by a Berber family who welcome every traveller themselves. The name, half Spanish, half Arabic, already says something about the house's history and the diversity of its clientele.

This is a modestly sized place, designed for personalised welcomes rather than a large flow of visitors. The secure parking, appreciated by travellers arriving in a hire car, rounds out this practical setup.

Breakfast as the house's signature

Reviews regularly mention the traditional breakfast as one of the highlights of the stay: Moroccan pancakes, local honey, mint tea served generously. It is this kind of detail, prepared in small quantities by the family themselves, that sets a guesthouse apart from a more formulaic establishment.

Advice for planning the rest of your stay

Rather than a fixed list of excursions, the family advises according to the time available and what each person feels like doing — useful for those still hesitating between a short camel trek and a full night in a desert camp.
