Short stay in Ourika

Juliette and Yahia are such friendly and welcoming hosts, always available for a good conversation and with excellent walking reccomendations and two lovely dogs. They helped me with transport and a late booking. Go here if you wish to find a home that feels like family in a less touristy part of the valley (quiet and secluded nature walks in lush green scenery). I will return!

Great location, awesome view with easy access to hiking routes and fairly off-grid and non-touristy… authentic experience and lots of lovely, friendly locals around! Juliette and Yahia were so lovely, welcoming and helpful, doing so much to make sure we had a nice stay, including giving lots of directions for walks etc and lending some cooking supplies (thank you so much)! Their dogs are also so cute and gentle GREAT EXPERIENCE

Interesting experience, garbage is a problem in the village where the house is located.

Beautiful landscape and valley.

We loved Juliette's place and Juliette was amazing. The view is beautiful from the accommodation with the view of the mountains. She has 2 lovely friendly dogs Juliette recommended a brilliant walk which had no tourists and had brilliant scenery, its one of the only times we have gone somewhere where we are told people don't normally see tourists and really believed it, the tiny villages we walked to are incredibly friendly. The homemade food Juliette made us was so generous and delicious we definitely recommend asking if she can do breakfast and dinner (it cost extra but it was great value and we had enough that we had it for lunch the next day as well). It can be a bit chilly in winter as it's 1000m altitude (we were here in December so normally the altitude will make it a perfect temperature) the rooms have nice thick blankets and it is really cozy. I recommend bringing some extra warm clothes as well Juliette was the nicest person always making sure we were having a good time and seeing if there was anything she could do to help. She had a spare room so without charging us anything extra she gave us 2 rooms compared to the 1 we paid for. She also let us check out later as we had a late flight. She probably wouldn't normally be able to offer this so not something to expect but it just shows that if she can help she will and she does it without expecting anything in return.

Our charming hostess Juliette welcomed us into her home and looked after us so well. We had a lovely time and even shared some funny stories. Breakfast was magnificent. The views are spectacular and the house is very interesting. The rural, quiet location was ideal for us. Thank you so much.
