Boutique Hotel in Dakhla – Le Palais Rhoul & Spa
Palais Rhoul Spa Dakhla — the address for Swiss travellers
Sun-drenched days, a shimmering lagoon and the open desert. Our luxury hotel opens onto turquoise water where time slows and elegance stays discreet. Mornings bring soft light on the lagoon, afternoons invite dune-side contemplation.
At sunset, the sky turns amber and violet, and calm settles in. Designed with Swiss travellers in mind,
the experience blends authenticity with serenity. For activities, think kitesurfing, spa, horse riding by the ocean,
relaxing by the lagoon, nordic walking, stand up paddle and yoga.
