Il mio soggiorno al Sanmao Desert Luxury Camp è stato semplicemente indimenticabile! La posizione nel cuore del deserto è magica, perfetta per ammirare l’alba e il tramonto in totale tranquillità. Le tende sono arredate con gusto, combinando eleganza e comfort, e offrono tutti i servizi necessari per un’esperienza di lusso nel deserto. Il personale è stato estremamente cordiale e attento a ogni dettaglio, assicurandosi che il nostro soggiorno fosse impeccabile. La cucina è stata un’altra piacevole sorpresa: piatti deliziosi, preparati con ingredienti freschi e un tocco autentico della cultura locale. Le attività offerte, come il camel trekking e le serate sotto le stelle, hanno reso l’esperienza ancora più speciale. È il luogo ideale per chi cerca relax, avventura e un contatto profondo con la natura. Non vedo l’ora di tornare e lo consiglio vivamente a chiunque desideri vivere un’esperienza unica nel deserto!

the Sanmao Desert Luxury Camp was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment I arrived, I was immersed in a world of tranquility, adventure, and luxury. The camp, nestled in the heart of the desert, offers a unique blend of rustic charm and high-end comfort, making it the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The tented suites were spacious, tastefully decorated, and equipped with all the modern amenities you could ask for. I especially loved the large windows that allowed for stunning views of the desert landscape. The design combined traditional elements with contemporary touches, creating a truly cozy and elegant atmosphere. The service was impeccable — staff members were attentive, friendly, and always eager to ensure that every need was met. Whether it was arranging a private dune ride or preparing a delicious desert-inspired meal, they went above and beyond to make my stay as comfortable and memorable as possible. One of the highlights of my experience was the array of activities offered. Watching the sunset over the dunes, stargazing in the clear night sky, and exploring the desert in a 4x4 were all truly unforgettable. The camp also offered a unique cultural experience, allowing guests to connect with the local heritage through traditional music, dance, and crafts. Food at the camp was another standout. Each meal was an exquisite culinary journey, with fresh ingredients and local flavors. Highly recommended!

Staff was AMAZING , they went above and beyond to make an unforgettable experience!! They arranged an early check in, lunch option even though the restaurant was closed at that time. they were super friendly! Considering we were in the middle of Desert , The tent was comfortable, clean with private bathrooms. It has a beautiful view of the Sahara Desert from the camp , and they offer camel rides from the camp to see Sunset and Sunrise. We were celebrating my husband Birthday and they did a great surprise to him! I highly recommend Sanmao Luxury Camp to experience Sahara Desert in a unique and comfortable way. Best
