Madu Luxury Desert Camp

Glamping in Morocco’s Sahara Desert at
Madu Luxury Desert Camp

Glamping in the Sahara Desert is a total bucket list experience while traveling around Morocco. And if you follow me on Instagram, you might have seen my stories from our recent stay at Madu Luxury Desert Camp.

The accommodation was dreamy. The staff was incredible. The food was great.

I have nothing bad to say about this stunning place except perhaps pack a small fan. The desert can be hot at night depending what month you’re there. In winter months, they have heaters for nighttime.

Overall, we absolutely loved this camp. It was the perfect place to unwind and spend two days enjoying the Sahara Desert.

Gorgeous accommodations with full shower and toilet in each tent

The tents are actually a more permanent structure with a full bathroom set up. It is so luxurious!

The showers are tiled with great water pressure and the tents are equipped with a full-flushing toilet. It’s definitely glamping, not camping!

Swim at the Madu Riad pool after lunch

When things get hot during the day, you can head over to the Madu Riad for lunch and a swim in their gorgeous pool. It’s the best way to beat the desert heat!

Arriving at camp is half the fun! You will transfer from your bus to a fleet of 4WD vehicles to go off roading in the desert. Once you’re into the desert, you’ll meet guides and camels which will take you the rest of the way to camp.

(Meanwhile, the 4WD vehicles will meet you at camp with all your luggage.)

The desert is quiet and beautiful and golden hour. It makes for a marvelous arrival into camp.

Nightly campfires at Madu Luxury Desert Camp

Each night we’d have dinner at camp then end the evening with a fire and live Berber music.

ATV Excursion & Sandboarding

A highlight of our entire trip to Morocco was the ATV excursion we did with Madu Luxury Desert Camp. It was a favorite for everyone!

Truly one of the best ways to see the Sahara, the ATVs allow you to get off the beaten path and see the untouched beauty of the desert. Sweeping desert views and no one around…it can’t be beat!
