Get to know our story

Sahara Sands is Family-run hotel.
 

Hi! I am Justyna, I am a Polish woman who fell in love with Morocco and my husband, who was born here. My daughter and I have been living in this amazing desert for two years. We love the slow, peaceful rhythm of life here and the stunning starry sky and the freedom of the desert.
Here, at the edge of the world,we have discovered a place that feels like home. 

And now we offer you a chance to experience the desert as it truly is—without the luxuries of air conditioning or a swimming pool, but with the pure, unfiltered essence of this remarkable land.

Sahara Sands is located in the heart of Merzouga, and at the same time right next to the dunes. The hotel buildings are built of traditional materials and methods, just like the buildings in the surrounding village. 

​

We care about our environment and community, about our neighbors, a 3 local cats feel here like in home. This is our home, here we live a simple life that respects the desert environment and our local community and we’d love to share it with you. Staying with us means experiencing the true atmosphere of the desert, its peace and traditional way of life.
