Kasbah · Oasis · Dadès Valley
A warm, vibrant Berber guest house where you can truly experience the valley instead of simply passing through.
Discover the house →Practical guideNestled between the High Atlas and Jbel Saghro, this traditional kasbah was restored over nearly ten years by local master craftsmen using earth, straw, reeds, wood and wrought iron. Its sixteen rooms blend Moroccan craftsmanship with influences from sub-Saharan Africa. Beside the Dadès river and gardens of olive, almond and fig trees, the house offers a pool, pétanque, table tennis, billiards, hammam, cinema and many walking opportunities.
The team members were met during hikes in the Atlas with Berber friends. Remarkably kind and discreet, they bring peace and warmth to the kasbah: Touria, the house manager; Mohamed and Hamed, cooks and experts on the region; Mohamed, head technician; and Mohamed Jardin, who looks after the grounds.
The name was chosen during a gathering of friends. Everyone gave meaning, value and intimacy to the words proposed, and La Perle was born. Like a beautiful story you want to tell, a book you pass to a friend, or something you loved and wish to share.
It began with a picnic in the gardens and an immense affection for a roofless ruin. After fifteen years in Africa and the close of one chapter of life, the desire to settle gave rise to a new adventure, shared with a team of remarkable generosity, discretion and kindness.
The kasbah lies near Boumalne Dadès, between the Valley of Roses and the Todra Valley, in the High Atlas at the foot of the Saghro. Behind the house, the river and its gardens offer many walks filled with shade, light, scents, flowing water, colours and curves. Coordinates: 31.322004, −6.005538.
