Staying at L’Ma Lodge in Morocco

Skoura Valley still has that old-world romance and remains the perfect destination for road-weary travelers looking to unwind and get away from the world.

After a couple nights of glamping in the Sahara desert, we found refuge at L’Ma Lodge– an oasis tucked inside a massive palm grove.

Getting to L’Ma Lodge

L’Ma Lodge in Skoura Valley is located between Marrakech and the Algerian border. It’s a four-and-half-hour drive from Marrakech, which is the nearest major city. Most people will stop in the Skoura Valley on their way to of from the Sahara desert.

There are some beautiful sights on the way, and it really gives you a sense of what the country is like outside of the more metropolitan north.

The intimate Riad at L’Ma Lodge features four bedrooms and three suites. Each room overlooks the olive and fruit trees with the Atlas Mountains in the distance. While it’s a quaint spot, L’Ma Lodge offers all the mod cons like powerful Wi-Fi and air conditioning.
