If secret gardens to stroll around and lounging in shaded, breezy spots with a cold drink are your thing, we suggest a trip to Al Tarfa in the beautiful Dakhla Oasis asap. At the fringes of this lush, bucolic island in the dessert, with donkey carts rumbling past on sandy tracks and cows grazing in the fields, this special lodge combines rustic country life with the small luxurious of an up-market eco retreat. From breakfast by the pool to lunch in the garden next to a gurgling stream to dinner under the stars, it's the meals that structure your day here rather than your watch. In between, the friendly and helpful but pleasantly unobtrusive team will arrange trips for you to some of the magnificent sights in the area, such as the amazing old town of Al Qasr with its intricate labyrinth of mud-brick houses. Our favourite spot, however, is the extremely comfy couch under a pair of lanterns from which the view goes out towards the caramel-coloured mountains in the distance, which provide a stark contrast to the lush greenery of the oasis below.
