Guest Reviews
"Wow! Beautiful apartment. Great location close to the Medina. This place has everything you need and is decorated beautifully. Lovely terrace as well! The host was so sweet and showed us the entire place! Would stay with them again any time — thank you!"
"Total use of a wonderful/helpful team who were our drivers for the entire stay — made us feel so welcome. Lovely cafés within the residence, great pools, walking distance to the markets. The team booked great activities: Hammam Spa, Agafay Desert with quad biking and camel ride!"
"Beautiful riad decorated in an original and tasteful way — we really liked the choice of colours! Very clean, well located, and the airport taxi service is very friendly. Communication with the owner was excellent. For the price, don't hesitate! If you love cats, there are lots in the residence!"
