Vieille dame de 200 ans, bâtie de murs de 1 mètre d’épaisseur, la kasbah Dar Essalam est maintenant restaurée pour accueillir des voyageurs de passage, et des amoureux d'espaces naturelles désireux de se ressourcer quelques jours. Les 13 chambres, petites mais confortables sont pourvues de sanitaires. La décoration et l'aménagement sont basés sur la sobriété et l'artisanat local. A 5 minutes du centre de Skoura et pourtant au cœur de la palmeraie…Une halte idéale sur la route des mille kasbahs. Facilement accessible depuis la route principale, l'axe Ouarzazateè Keela M'Gouna, la Kasbah Dar Es Salam est néanmoins nichée au cœur de la palmeraie, entourée de villages en terre. C'est une base idéale pour des excursions à la journée, comme les vallées du Dades et du Todrha, ou encore la visite de Aït Ben Haddou…Sa distance de 40 minutes de Ouarzazate en fait aussi  une étape pour une arrivée ou un départ de l'aéroport international de Ouarzazate..

 

Typical Moroccan accomodation in a delightful palmtree resort only 5 min drive to the centre of Skoura, at 1400 meter high in the Berber mountains. The Kasbah Dar Essalam which offers 13 bedrooms with shower and toilets ensuite, is a beautiful 200 years old building with walls of 1 metre depth.35 min drive from Ouarzazate international airport the Kasbah Dar Es Salam is on the main road to Keela M'Gouna. Dar Es Salam is ideally located in a palmtree resort and surrounded by typical terracota village houses. From here you will enjoy hicking in the Dades and the Todrha valleys and visit Ait Ben Haddou.

Dar Es Salam is a typical south Moroccan quadrangle building surrounded by its 3 meter high walls and 4 towers, a large and central patio is accessible from all the communal rooms. For its construction 200 years ago the locals used only earth, palms, willow and wood. The rooms are of a small size since at the time of their construction their size was limited by the length of the wood available in the area. Each tower has its own entrance and is home to double bedrooms. The patio, central point of the Kasbah originally designed to accomodate the herds during the night,  has now been converted into a lounge-dining room with individual and private dining areas. All the rooms have inherited the simplicity of the Berber craftmanship and its warm and rich tones of colours. Outside the patio, are many cool areas where breakfast is served and where you can simply rest after a day walk.
