Dune-View Hotels in Douz — Desert Edge Stays at the Grand Erg Oriental

In Douz, 'beachfront' means the dune edge — where the town's palm groves end and the Grand Erg Oriental begins. Hotels positioned at this threshold offer the most direct access to the Sahara: walk five minutes from your room and you are standing on dunes that extend uninterrupted for hundreds of kilometres.
