Fodor's Expert Review Ksar Sania Eco-Lodge

Ksar Sania, Merzouga, Drâa-Tafilalet, Morocco

At the edge of the Sahara, this unique French-owned eco-lodge lets guests bed down in handsome, hexagonal bungalows that are built from straw-covered mud; the rooms are very spacious and stylish, with tasteful furnishings, rich colors, and traditional ceilings.

Rates include dinner and breakfast.
