Casa Juan is a place with soul. For someone who values authenticity over luxury. Decorated in a simple, traditional style, it delights with many beautiful details of Berber art and ethnic art from various regions of Africa, which, together with interesting photographs on the walls, create an atmospheric space that reflects the travel preferences of the guesthouse owner, Juan, a renowned photographer and traveler. Casa Juan is the essence of Berber hospitality. Much credit for this goes to Abdel, the property manager. Although we had already chosen a room when booking, upon arrival Abdel showed us around the property, and we had the opportunity to choose another room. His warmth and concern for our comfort did not end with our stay. My husband forgot his iPad under the bed, and even though we were already well on our way, Abdul found us and helped deliver it. The delicious food is not to be missed. And the breakfast served on the terrace overlooking the desert landscape was one of the best during our entire trip to Morocco. The abundance of options on the table, including amazing jams made with local ingredients, was almost overwhelming. Casa Juan – in a picturesque location in the region that truly represents the south of Morocco, with minimal tourist traffic in the village of Tagounite, between Zagora and Mhamid – is the perfect place for a last night before heading into the Sahara to Erg Chigaga. I regret that I only spent one night there. It's worth a longer stay.

“Casa Juan a true gem before entering the Sahara Desert!”
Casa Juan is a true gems at the doors of Sahara desert. Casa Juan is finely furnished with great taste. Abdou welcomes warmly the guests and loves sharing stories about local life and the desert. Wonderful terrace with incredible view on the dunes and Atlas. You really feel like home.

“The real deal.”
This hotel hugely exceeded our expectations. The building is finished with incredible attention to detail and decorated with such care and creativity. It’s the real deal. And the best value for money we’ve encountered on our trip so far. It’s a great place to stop after a trip to the desert for some time to unwind. Abdu was so friendly and welcoming and we’ll be looking up Juan’s other hotels for our next visit to Morocco.

“our best stay in Morocco”
Juan and Abdul are extremely good hosts. The traditional house is spacious and charming with a beautiful rooftop terrace and garden. Both the breakfast and dinner were extremely high quality and plentiful. On arrival, Abdul took us to the dune with welcome mint tea and snacks to watch the sunset. Juan was very helpful and enthusiastic at giving insider tips and organising travel itineraries for us. A lovely and memorable experience!
