“Lovely stay with friendly host family”
Lovely host family. Our French is very limiter but we still had a good conversation. They are very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the tea at the balcony, it was a nice and shaded, lovely to hang out and read a book. Relaxing ambiance and view on the green oasis jn the Village. The kasbah is nicely decorated in traditional Moroccain style with the beautiful paintings of the host. The dinner was amazing. We had delicous couscous and chicken Tajine, one of the best we had in Morocco.

Just incredible. Pretty and with so much heart and humanity. We were able to park our motorcycles I'm their garage at the road and the kind owner and his staff helped carry out luggage. Can't wait to go back there.

This was one of our best experiences of our trip. It felt like visiting of a family. They took care of us and fulfill all our needs. Perfectly nice people, great dinner and food and comfort all over. If you want to know how kasbah live feels, this is the place.

Incredibly kind hosts who made us feel like part of the family, stunning panorama, peaceful and tranquil and great to be away from the crowds at Ait Ben Haddou though only a few minutes drive away from it.

“Recommended!”
Super nice family that owns the Kasbah, very helpful and friendly. The house itself is beautifully decorated, very quiet location (a bit hidden off the road - 1min walk).

“The number 1 guesthouse in Morocco!”
This is a quite unique and exceptional place to stay. It is a wonderful old building which is fabulously decorated with the paintings of the owner. They treated us like family and we were sad to leave their great hospitality and company.

“Nice, quiet views near Ait Benhaddou”
Nide quiet location, but involves a short walk from the main road along an uneven path. There is someone to help with the luggage though. Beautiful views from the terrace. The kasbah and rooms are nicely decorated but the rooms need some TLC and could do with some more light. Good heating in winter and we were warm.

“Lovely people, surroundings and food”
Beautiful surroundings and decor, not perfect but real, cozy, colourful and interesting. Hosts are lovely humans who go out of their way to make your stay pleasant, views are fab. It is nice to be treated as humans rather than a ATM as is common in tourist areas.

“Amazing place”
Excellent place just outside all touristic buzz around Ait Ben Haddou. The hosts are both extremely friendly and the best I have ever met. You feel the passion and efforts the moment you enter the place. An amazing place full of passion and art.
