Peaceful haven near Marrakech
We stayed at this villa for 5 nights with our family of 6 in early August after a break in Essaouria. We had a lovely time. The villa is a peaceful haven from the hustle and bustle of Marrakech, housed in a safe gated complex. Our children loved playing and relaxing in the pool. We made a few trips to the Medina (taxi fare is 400 Dhs for a round trip) and a day trip to the Atlas mountains (taxi fare 1200 Dhs). The latter is highly recommended - it consisted of a visit to the home of a berber family, traditional moroccan lunch beside a river stream and a guided trek up to the siti Fatimah Waterfall and stopovers to local souvenir stores dotted along the mountain valley. Lunch and guided trek are not included in the taxi fare.
We made a few trips to the local supermarket (Atacadou) en route to/from Marrakech. It is around 9-10km from the villa. There are no other stores local to the villa.
The temperature in August is very hot (38-40 centigrade) and so timing any activities during the day is key - early morning or late afternoon / evening is best. The villa is fully air-conditioned and a welcome relief from a day out in the sun.
Sofiane and his team were quick to respond whenever we had any issues and were only a phone call away.
We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and would love to come again. It is an ideal retreat if you are not planning frequent visits to the centre of Marrakech (budget for taxi fares if you are).
Perfect Riad authentic and brilliant location
We stayed here for 7 days as a group of 5 and this riad is perfect for families or groups and so relaxing. As a travel agent I will definitely be recommending this riad to friends and clients alike.
The building is so deceptive from outside, and as you enter the grand doorway, you feel like you have stepped into paradise.
The architecture is so grand and every room has its own moroccan theme.
The best part of this stay by far was our host Rachida, who went out of her way to ensure we had a comfortable stay. She is the kindest person that I have ever met and her hospitality was perfect.
Thank you for a lovely stay!
Fantastic! Charming and magical. The kids loved it and so did we.
The house was as described. Very clean, easy and comfortable to live in. Decor is tasteful and leaves you space for your own things. Arrival and checkout were simple, Habib the housekeeper was wonderful.
Location was great. We felt embedded in the village. The shopkeeper outside the house knew us by the end of our week, and greeted us with smiles every time we passed. You ARE going to feel like part of the village, including the calls to prayer from the mosque and similar. So a slight sense of adventure is required, and an understanding that life outside your door is not going to follow UK/EU norms. That said, the vibe in the village is relaxed and welcoming, very peaceful.
The beach (which you can see from the balcony, only 30 meters from the house) was comfortable and safe. Felt private, we often had the whole thing to ourselves.
