Dar Ahlam is a champagne-hued Kasbah surrounded by date palm and almond tree groves in the historic oasis village of Skoura, once an important trading post between the Atlas Mountains to the north and Saharan sands to the south.

14 carefully considered rooms are found within the centuries-old Kasbah and hidden away in the lush walled gardens.

The creation of a French theatre producer, there is a sense of drama and style at every turn as you walk the grounds and interiors between the pool, candlelit hammam spa and private spots. Dining, too, is always an event, a celebration of local organic produce by a talented culinary team in ever-changing locations – breakfast in the herb garden, a picnic out in the desert, a feast by lantern – and always private.

With a dedicated guide, your days here are completely personalized. Trek into the Valley of Roses, wander the local market, enjoy a traditional Berber tea ceremony or head into the mountains for a hike. For an unforgettable night, spend an evening in the Sahara at Dar Ahlam’s stunning private camp.
