“A peaceful oasis set in the foot-hills of the Atlas with sights nearby. A Berber dwelling conversion with elegant yet simple interiors and several comfortable lounge areas inside and out. Delicious home-cooked food and warm hospitality. A charming tranquil base.”

Jardins de Skoura

A peaceful, rug-filled boutique hotel in a mud-built house with verdant gardens, set in an oasis of palms and crumbling kasbahs in southern Morocco. A remote and great-value retreat with a variety of rooftop terraces, lounges and green corners in which to relax and wind down to the pace of oasis life.
