Best overnight at Affordable luxury camp option!!
I was looking for a unique adventure, and this camp delivered. I selected the option of Affordable luxury camp and exited my expectations.The guided hikes and camel rides were exhilarating, and the stunning scenery was breathtaking. But what really surprised me was the level of relaxation and comfort. The tents were spacious and luxurious, and the food was amazing. I loved the peaceful atmosphere and the friendly staff. This camp is perfect for anyone looking for a mix of adventure and relaxation.
I highly recommend staying at this camp and just book it with your close eyes.

Amazing stay at affordable luxury camp!!
What a fantastic experience at the Comfort Cove Camp! After a long week, this was the perfect place to unwind.The staff at the camp were top amazing as the camel guide who was taking us the pictures all along the way.The tent was luxurious with plush bedding and even a small seating area. I loved the rustic charm combined with modern comforts. The camp offered fun activities like guided hikes and yoga sessions, and all at an incredibly affordable price. The sunset views were breathtaking, and I couldn’t have asked for a better way to recharge. This is a must-visit for anyone seeking a luxury camping experience!

Best Place to book unforgettable desert experience
My visit and my experience to this magical place is one of my top places I have been.Once I arrived to to this place and rode a camel through the dunes of Erg Chebbi .My guide was really funny and expert in the desert life .Once I arrived to the camp I welcomed by a hot mint tea as the region hospitality.I highly recommend this site to book with,make sure to ask for luxury tent.

Amazing trip from Marrakech to Fes via Merzouga
We had an amazing 3 day trip from Marrakech to Fes via Merzouga. The booking process was seamless and Mustafa was available to answer any questions prior to the trip and checked in during the trip also! It was also very customizable.
We had an amazing time with Omar. He was an excellent guide and very patient with our questions and asks. The hotel and glamping site in the desert were great and very accommodating. Highly recommend Sahara Serenity for any future travels in Morocco!

A fantastic experience - waking up your inner nomad!
This was a perfect night in Sahara desert.
Mustafa helped us with organizing other parts of our trips and gave us a few tipps. He is really a golden guide ! He makes you feel welcomed.
We rode camels and spent one night in a camp with a full programme (dinner and bteakfast., music). Stars in the night are so perfect.
Highly highly highly recommended!

BEST EXPERIENCE OF MY LIFE
Please book this trip. This was the best experience of my life. Our guide, Mustafa, was the best guide in all morocco !!!! He’s very attentive to details and will make your trip even better that what you could have expected, i promise. We had a couple of guides in Morocco, but I’ve never experienced a guide that will made us feel so much at home.
Carrying and funny, you will have a day/night that you’ll remember all your life !
Regarding the camps : SUPER CLEAN ! And the food was incredibly good ! The service, the music, the dances…
Please book this trip before they get all booked !
You won’t feel like a client/tourist. You’ll feel like you’re part of the family.

1 night camel trekking in Merzouga desert
I booked a 1 night camel trekking with Sahara Serenity Tours which was recommended to me by some friends.
My tent was clean and comfortable and the staff were absolutely great especially Muhammed who is in charge of the camp.
I discovered that they arrange private Morocco tours and that's something I missed!!I rented a car by myself and I wasn't comfortable driving in the big cities and I wished I had booked with a company.
I highly recommend this company to anyone who is going to Morocco.
