The Sangho Tataouine

The Sangho Tataouine is a haven for adventurers touring the fortified granaries of the Ksour, for working geologists and archeologists, and for travelers who just want a refreshing break.

The four-star Sangho Tataouine is an architectural gem. A complex of 62 stone bungalows of the local rough red brown stone follow the contours of the hill side on which they are built. The lush gardens along the winding stone paths attract rare desert birds. There is a side courtyard with a fireplace and traditional goat hair tent for evenings under the piercing stars which penetrate the black desert sky.

The main building, which winds around gleaming circular pools, houses two fine restaurants and a homey, meandering bar-reception area. The hotel is decorated with local textiles, historic maps and photographs, antiques from the Ksour region, and intriguing displays of ancient fossils. The kitchen garden in the source of sangho's fresh produces for the fine cuisine, which is served with a flourish by friendly costumed waiters.
