- Kasbah Azul
- Kasbah Azul is a 10-bedroom guesthouse located in the Draa Valley. Its location within the palm oasis is magical. It has recently opened its own hammam. Rates are from 140 euro per night including breakfast and dinner.
- Riad Lamane
- Located in lush gardens, this 22-bedroom guesthouse is our preferred place in Zagora. The tariff is 115 euro per night. There are not many large hotels en route, but the best option is probably the Berber Palace in Ouarzazate.
