A very special place where you can easily chill out and de-stress. The natural beauty of the mountains and gardens are breathtaking. My second time here to celebrate our weddung anniversary and it still lived up to expectations. We came for a short 5 night break which was perfect to recharge.
The staff are so courteous and nothing is too much trouble, they genuinely seem to want you to enjoy your stay as much as possible.
Breakfasts are fab and there is alot of choice on the buffet and a vast selection of cooked options made to order, and freshly squeezed juices, including traditional Berbour breakfast with eggs and a type of meatballs. On the last day we had room service for breakfast and we had everything we asked for, plus a few extra things they thought we might like, such as fruit salad and pancakes!!
Lunch is on the terrace or if you want you can stay and by the pool and have delicious mozzarella, tom, avocado basil salad, chicken sanis in traditional flat breads or fish, chicken tagines theres lots of choice and service is quick.
For dinner location changes nightly. The roof terraces give a great view and are cooler than the pool terraces. The night we arrived dinner was being served on the first floor inner courtyard surrounding an ornate pool covered with floating rose petals, so romantic.
All rooms have different characters. The first time we stayed in the main house then to a larger room near to the pool. This time we were very lucky to be upgraded to a Berber tent in the gardens which was an amazing experience and made our stay even more enjoyable. With sun all day the really spacious terrace gives lots of privacy and awesome views . Hardest decision was to be by the pool or our own terrace each afternoon...
This is definitely a unique and special place.
There are direct flights from London around 3.5 hrs and a scenic hour's drive from Marrakech.
