Oasis Courtyard
Oasis Courtyard is a crenellated lodge built around a sheltered garden, with arched windows and desert plants that have found the one shady corner on the whole street. It feels like arriving somewhere that was waiting for you.
Omi the oasis host opens the garden gate and offers you a seat in the shade. Flowers grow in a neat row along the front, and a watering can waits by the path in case anything looks thirsty.
Stop for a while. The courtyard is a good place to arrive, slow down and say hello, whether you are a traveler, a host or someone with a few good stories to share.
