Guest reviews
A very exotic accommodation with a magnificent rooftop. The rooms are simple but perfectly functional. The staff is particularly welcoming, with a special mention to the cooks who prepared a delicious breakfast for us. The riad is ideally located: it is only a 5-minute walk from superb beach restaurants like L'Océan Vagabond or Le Panoramique, where you can eat, drink, and enjoy sun loungers for only 5 € a day at very affordable rates. To reach the medina, it takes about a 25-minute walk, but the stroll along the sea is very pleasant. For the return, a taxi will cost you only about 1 euro.

Small pool that is shaded all day
Quiet and staff friendly. Literally, I like this place.

The room was old and small. The bathroom: a sink and a shower without a tray or separation. Lots of noise in the street. Soundproofing issue, you can hear everything happening in the next room. Impossible to sleep. Its rating of over 8 is incomprehensible. The value for money was not up to par; we have been in Morocco for 3 weeks, the day before we were in a 4* in Marrakech at the same price. Incidentally, the wifi was not working, and there was no TV.
The room was great for our family. It was very quiet and comfortable. The rooftop terrace is fantastic. The breakfast offers variety and tastes very good. The staff was very nice and helpful, organizing our activities well, with a diverse program offered. The pool is small but nice and even heated. It is very close to the beach, and the Medina is easily accessible.
