Ksar Amazaten, photo 1

Ksar Amazaten is a guesthouse in Timimoun, in the Gourara region of the Algerian Sahara, located in the ksar of the same name, just over a kilometre from the town centre. With a quiet, traditional feel, an on-site restaurant and rooms for one to five guests, it suits families and groups of friends coming to discover the "red oasis". The best season runs from October to March.

Location: the Amazaten ksar, near the centre

The house is in the Amazaten ksar in Timimoun, in the same area as the Gourara hotel, just over a kilometre from the town centre. Timimoun airport (TMX) is about 7 km away.

A ksar is a fortified village built of earth, typical of Saharan oases. Those of Timimoun, the "red oasis", overlook the palm grove and its gardens watered by foggaras (underground water channels), then the sebkha, or salt flat, and the dunes of the Grand Erg Occidental.

Rooms and meals

Ksar Amazaten offers rooms for one, two, three, four or five guests: a practical choice for families with children and for groups. Wi-Fi is available on site.

The house has a restaurant and serves breakfast. The meal plan included in your rate (breakfast, half board) is shown on each offer before you book.

Check-in is from 2 pm and check-out is until noon; these times are repeated on your voucher.

Things to do around Timimoun, and getting there

From the house it is easy to reach the centre of Timimoun and the palm grove. With a local guide and a vehicle, you can set off on the circuit of the sebkha and the ksour of the Gourara, then head to the dunes for sunset, by 4x4 or camel.

These outings are arranged locally; they are not included in the room rate unless the offer says otherwise. Winter evenings are cool, so bring something warm.

You reach Timimoun by air through Timimoun airport (TMX), served by domestic flights, notably from Algiers, or by road from Adrar or El Menia.
