The place itself
Dar Ahlam is a kasbah in the palm grove of Skoura, in the province of Ouarzazate. The address on the site is Douar Oulad Cheik Ali, 45502 Skoura. They say the house opened in 2002, and they name Thierry Teyssier as the person who set the hospitality. The English page calls it the House of Dreams. They describe the stay in lengths of time. Two nights are inside the kasbah. Three nights open onto the palm grove, where they say five houses sit in the oasis. Longer stays go toward valleys and, if you give it the days, the desert. They also say the day is not fixed months ahead: meals may be set where you do not expect them, and children and dogs are welcome. Phone +212 524 852 239. Email resamaroc@darahlam.com. Book on darahlam.com. Rates are on their site.
