Descendants of the qaid (local chief) welcome guests to their partially restored kasbah. Courtyard rooms are basic, though the colourfully painted ceilings add character. Camping is good beneath the palms, although the pool wasn't operating on our visit. You can also sleep outdoors on the terrace (DH50) beneath star-filled skies – remember your insect repellent!
In early April, the kasbah hosts an international music festival on the grounds – well worth attending if you're passing through.
