Great Experience
Quite a magnificent,expansive property which would be wonderful for a large family gathering yet as the only two people in the building we were very comfortable. The accommodation is beautifully decorated in Moroccan tradition and very clean. Hafida not only served breakfast but helped us accomplish what we wanted to see and do

The property is adorable! I was fascinated by the decoration of the riad. The host Rabia communication was clear and Hafida the lady who was there to give us the keys was amazing. She offerd us tea, cookies and drew a map for the attractions around. We walked almost everywhere as the Road is close to many places. The neighborhood is safe and the Riad is spacious and spotoess. I will definitely book it again and recommend it to my family and friends.

Quiet spot, convenient location
Lovely Riad (not that we have seen any others!) but every room had a bathroom and the tiling/wood features were really beautiful. Appreciated the laundry facilities too. Location was ideal - in quiet spot but 2 minutes gets you to the heart of the Kaaba and the Tombs. Hafida was so helpful and patient with us. We only speak English so Google Translate was a blessing. She helped organize so much for us - cooking class, spa, printing airline tickets and would take us to places to ensure we got to where we needed to go.

A Wonderful Stay!
We loved staying here! The space was gorgeous with exquisite attention to detail. The neighborhood was quiet and allowed for easy exploration of the nearby areas. Rabia was very responsive to our many questions and Hafida was a pure delight to interact with while in the home. We really appreciated the transfer from the train station, the filtered water, and the various communal sitting areas. We recommend this Riad without hesitation.

Wonderful Riad
We had a great stay here in Marrakech. Right in the heart of the Medina. Hafida was an amazing host/cook/resource. Very warm, kind and helpful. The place was huge with many more rooms than we could possibly use. Rooftop view was great, looking over the city. Would definitely stay here again!

Pristine riad in great location.
The riad was in a great location, super clean, and quiet at night. The terrace was perfect for relaxing in the evenings and enjoying the cool air. Hafida was super kind and helpful. Only had a couple issues: the bedroom with two beds has an AC that doesn’t work, the confusing information in the listing regarding airport transfers (they only cover transfers from the airport), and the terrible WiFi. I work remotely and needed the WiFi so had to move to a local cafe or other location in order to work. All in all would definitely recommend.

Lovely riad
Rabia’s riad is lovely. Central but quiet, and cool downstairs which was great in 45 degree heat! Halfida was really helpful and attentive when we needed anything. She provided good breakfasts. The transfers were pre-organised which was super reassuring arriving in a new city. Would stay again.

Lovely Home in an Extraordinary City
This is an exceptional home - clean, comfortable, spacious, and in a great location. Hafida was so kind and welcoming. She helped us get oriented and made sure our early trip to the airport went off without a hitch. We wish we could have stayed longer.

An Oasis in the Kasbah
This residence is a unique experience - situated in the midst of the old medina, it provides a calm, peaceful and comfortable environment. But above all, the host Hafida is the ultimate gift to any traveler. Her meals and her company are as sweet and savory as you could wish for. It was the place perfect place to land.

Marrakech charm
Beautiful moroccan home in the more traditional part of Medina. The place had multiple floors and beds and gives you a true Moroccan ambience. It is surrounded by plenty of shops and local Stores , restaurants . Hafida is a sweet and humble lady who frequents the property prepared daily breakfast and is very helpful for information concerning the area and helped us with scheduling taxis and bought us a few groceries . She also made a traditional meal for us called tagine which was great ! Thank you Hafida! Overall our stay was amazing . Owners communicated clearly with us from the start. Would definitely return to this vrbo upon our next trip to Morocco .

Beautiful riad all to yourself
Beautiful and clean property that you have all to yourself - no one else except your group/family/etc. Plenty of space, could easily sleep over a dozen people. A 10-minute walk to the main square (Jemaa el-Fnaa). The housekeeper, Hafida, made us dinner one night and it was fantastic. Strongly recommended accommodations!

Unique Stay
Loved the idea of staying in such an historic type of house. Was well decorated to allow you the full experience of Morrocco from plush furnishings to carved wooden doors to winding staircases. Appreciated that a few rooms had AC but not all, otherwise we would've stayed inside too much. Two patios were great for different reasons. One was great for yoga and had a washing machine and clothes line. The top patio allowed for sunset views and a quiet place in the evening to sit away from the noise. We didn't care for the location. It was initially hard to orient to, especially in the evening. When you go out, make sure you identify unique landmarks that will help you get home! Being close to the tomb is a big help buy only gets you so far. Once you get on the 'street' everything is clean and quiet, but first you do go down a market street that has sounds and smells of butchers, produce sellers, etc. So expect that. It can be wet and a bit grungy. Would we stay there again? Yes. There were only two of us but we loved migrating to different rooms throughout our stay. Especially the 3rd floor living space. Also to note, my son was able to successfully telework from the building so internet was quite good. And you will get amazing hit and crispy msmmen for breakfast!

Riad in Marrakech
We completely enjoyed our stay. The location was perfectly located and our host was great with communication and accommodations. We had home cooked breakfast each morning by Hafida who was very kind, helpful and pleasant to be around. Hafida helped us in many ways which made our trip that much more enjoyable. We didn’t have to struggle with taxi service and she helped us organize our days and travel throughout Marrakech. Rabia our host was very accommodating and easy to communicate with. The Riad is authentic Moroccan which helped us experience the true culture. We loved the roof top where we spent many evening enjoying the outdoors. Thank you Rabia and Hafida!!! We wish you the best.

Excellent experience
We loved everything about our stay here. The home is beautiful, the location ideal and Hafida is a gem. She went over and above in answering our questions, booking a hamman and helping us arrange transport to our next destination. She even gave us an impromptu couscous cooking lesson and shared with us us harira. We look forward to a next visit.

Fantastic, spatious and quite riad inmidst of busy Marrakech
The riad is a wonderful, very well equipped house with several sleeping rooms and separate bathrooms, two separate terraces with a great panoramic view over the city of Marrakech. Although it is inmidst the Kasbah, it is very quite and great to relax after and in between visiting the city. The housekeeper is very kind and makes a good Maroc breakfast. We very much enjoyed our stay!

Absolutely Perfect!
We couldn't have enjoyed our stay at this beautiful house more. It feels wonderfully Moroccan, is beautifully decorated, and the craftsmanship of the home is amazing. We were very comfortable, and the owners are great communicators - helpful and responsive. Another jewel in the crown of this lovely home is Hafida, one of the kindest and loveliest people we have ever met in our travels. She takes great care of this beautiful home. She provided wonderful breakfasts, and was so helpful with information about the area, assisting us with transport, and always making sure we were comfortable. We will never forget her! Rabia, Christophe, and Hafida, thank you for making our visit so delightful!

Excellent Marrakech Experience
The property is located close to sites, but quieter and less touristy then other Riads. Hafida was there with local information on the city and Muslim culture. We don’t speak Arabic or French, but used apps to communicate. The space is beautiful with traditional tiling and wood carving. There are a variety of areas to enjoy in the house- two sitting rooms and two terraces.
