Two friends and I included a stay in the Sahara in our recent extensive tour of Morocco. Let me say up front that the experience of riding a camel and watching sunset and sunrise in the Sahara was magnificent and worthwhile, despite a disappointing stay in the deluxe Berber tents. The desert trip started out from Hotel Kasbah Xaluca in... More

My friend and I searched and searched for photos of the "La Belle Etoile" deluxe berber tents advertised by our tour company as well as Kensington Tours. We couldn't find details before we left and it looks like reviews for this "Xaluca Bivouac La Belle Etoile" are mixed with some regular hotel photos. So, to be clear, I am reviewing... More

We are a family of three and stayed for 2 nights in the Lux tents as part of a 4 days tour through the desert organized through the Xaluca Tour. The lux tents are 100% better than La Belle Etoile and not much more expensive. They are very large, have private bathrooms and showers, a fireplace and a covered dining... More

We spent 1 night here in a deluxe tent during our 4 day Sahara Tour. It was better than we expected! Although pretty pricey, it was worth the experience. We were there in January and it was FREEZING at night. They provided us with 8 blankets which kept us warm but was a little hard to breathe under all that... More

I stayed for two nights with a grup so I did not have time to enjoy the hotel to its fullest. It is a big hotel used to catering for big tour groups and other desert travelers. The rooms are spacious nice desighned and situated in blocks set up to look like Berber houses.

We stayed there only for 1 night before going on an overnight camel trip to Erg Chebby. I wanted to stay there for at least one more night but we didn't have the time. It is a great indulging hotel with amazing amenities and great pools. Everything is well designed and the rooms are fantastic. A recommendation: use this place... More

I was already 3 times in Xaluca and everytime its a great surprise. Great, great ! No words enough. I'm a travel agent in Algarve/Portugal and I always include this hotel in our tours. Can be jeep or minibus tours but we always stay there one night. Our guests always feel in paradise. Amazing.

And I could go on for another hour. The only bad thing was that the hotel was big, but it didnot bother us at all. The rooms are huge, beautiful tiles en bathtub with fossils in it. The hotel is in a few branches, two stories high, we had a room on the ground floor. The room is compleet with... More
