We went to see the housr.. and it was in the middle of ruins..with no access by car

“Everything exceeded expectations, so it was fantastic.”

An amazing and secluded location in the old town, an excellent breakfast, and the whole house just for our family.

“Amazing stay in a unique property, in an amazing village.”

We only had 1 night at Maison d'hote J but wished we could have stayed longer. When we arrived after a long drive, we were immediately greeted by Ismael's smiling face which put us at ease. Ismael was the perfect host, he arranged a guide to show us around the Kasbah very quickly, who proudly explained the history of this amazing place to us. The accommodation itself was completely unique and listening to the call to prayer echoing across the Draa Valley from the terrace was an experience that will stay with us forever.

A special location in the middle of the ruins. Your own balcony upstairs. Friendly staff 😊 I recommend if you want an authentic experience.

A very pretty room in an old Kasbah with a beautiful view on the palm trees. Ismael was the best host who is very helpful and offers tours through the Kasbah as well. Thank you!

“Overall a very unique experience and totally worth it”

Me and my partner stayed there for two nights and we absolutely liked it. Ismail is very kind, helpful and respectful. We had a really good time in this very special village, where you feel like being in an ancient museum. We got breakfast and had dinner in a restaurant in the old village and one night also at family. Ismail gave us a super interesting tour through the village. Overall, a very good and special experience. Thanks 🙏🏻

Ismael our host was a highlight of our Morroco trip. Extremely friendly, knowledgeable and helped us out in so many ways. I can't wait to return. The house is beautiful. Overlooking the Draa valley with an incredible balcony and very tastefully decorated. The mountain views, the local people and the location of the accommodation. Was enough to make this a favourite on my Morroco trip. Don't consider. Just book

Amazing house at amazing location!

“A peaceful escape”

The location is unique in the ruins of a ksar from the 16th century. There are some people who still live there. The surrounding valley of Draa with the palm trees and tranquility. The sunsets and sunrises. The whole area is so peaceful, there are no sellers, no cars, no noise. Ismael was super helpful and a pleasure to talk to. The terrace with the view of the valley.

“We actually rested here, loved it”

After 2 weeks traveling in Morocco we found this place and instead of 1 night staying here we are already 3 days here-this place is amazing, quiet, with great view to mountains and palms from terrace. Room is really cozy, really clean, heating works and water (also hot) works perfectly as well. One of the best stays so far here in Morocco, highly recommended for those who are a bit tired from noise and people.

The location is absolutely superb - the view you have from the terrace on the palmeraie ("garden") is magic. We also really enjoyed being able to stay within the old-town of Tamnougalt - it felt very unique. For us this was the winning argument that made us forget anything else!

Unique location in the ruins, and we basically got a whole house for the price of a room. Very beautiful place and very friendly and helpful staff.

“Exceptional stay in a historic place”

We spent 1 night on a stopover, we had the whole house for ourselves, hot shower, and warm, cozy rooms

“Very authentic Moroccan apartment”

We met Ismael, the host, at the pre-arranged time and location. He was very kind and friendly, and personally guided us to the apartment, located at the end of a small street in an almost completely uninhabited village. We arrived while it was still light outside, which was helpful, as the narrow streets are not illuminated at night. The apartment itself is very authentic; unlike most of the surrounding buildings, it has been nicely renovated. The interior was clean and well-organized. From the terrace we had a beautiful view of the palmary and the mountains. It is an extremely quiet place, as no one lives in the immediate area. Ismael shared a lot of useful information and was incredibly helpful—within a short time he even arranged for a local resident to give us a guided tour of the village, including the kasbah and many interesting sights. We enjoyed a peaceful night, and in the morning we watched the sunrise from the terrace. A truly unique and memorable experience.

If you’re looking for an authentic place to stay away-from-it-all in the Draa Valley, I would really recommend Maison d’Hote J. A cosy room with a terrace overlooking the eden-like palm grove in this semi-abandoned village near Agdz. Quiet and peaceful - and with Ismael, a helpful and friendly host.

If you want authentic, then this place is an absolute must. Incredible setting, and the host looked after us so well. Thoroughly recommend staying.

“Good surprise”

The place it well decorated with a good test. The bed it s confortable. We add hot shower and all what we expected.

Great host, quiet environment

“It was a very memorable and heartwarming experience.”

Maison J is very spacious with an authentic style. The view from the terrace was beautiful. The whole place was out of this world. Ismael gave us a warm welcome and looked after us the whole time. His wife cooked us dinner. They were the perfect hosts. Me and my 2 boys are very grateful of their hospitality.

The location is very special, as the house is one of the few renovated houses in a deserted Kasbah. The renovation is nicely done and the view of the terrace on the oasis is very beautiful. We also had an interesting guided tour around the Kasbah which Ismael arranged for us.
