HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Comfortable stay with the best hosts! The place was clean and had everything we needed for our 4 nights in Skoura. We could easily rent bikes from Ahmed to explore Skoura. You will need a car to get to the location but I think it’s worth the drive. We had the best meals cooked by Fatima.

Hands down the best accommodation of our two weeks in Morocco. It is a real Kasbah immersed in the nature, perfectly restored and super clean. The terrace is a real paradise and the bed are very comfortable. Breakfast was very good, and also the dinner we had there was delicious!

Spacious and nice apartment. The sunny and private rooftop terrace is great. The owners are super nice and helpful. We did some very nice walks from there in the Palmeraie.

“Superb”
Mohammed and Fatima are the most wonderful hosts. The place is basic, yet very beautiful, comfortable and authentic and has everything you need. We liked it better than many of the other places. The dinner was the best tajine we had and the breakfast at the lovely roof terrace was also delicious.

Welcoming family. Clean and spacious accommodation. Ahmed and his family welcomed us into their home like family. Ahmed's mother was very kind. His wife Fatima prepared nice dinner for us. We were very delighted with our stay at Chez Ahmed.

“Lovely house with beautiful design”
This place is simply amazing! Very very very clean, beautiful design - the best place in which we stayed during 10 days in Morocco. Fatima and Ahmed are lovely and tagine that Fatima cooked for us was also the best meal we’ve had during our trip. And we could eat it by the fireplace. Photos do not capture the beauty of this place - it is waaay better. Breakfast was expectional. If we ever come back to Morocco we would come again to Ahmed and Fatima with no doubt.

Fatima was lovely, and did all that she could to provide a comfortable stay for us. The only issue was that it is out of town, on. adirt road which was tricky to navigate arriving in the evening.

Very beautiful house. Ahmed has a very good interior design taste and we felt treated very good both at dinner and at breakfast. There was heating in the room and hot water. The surroundings are very interesting and unique, being placed in a non-touristic area of the skoura Oasis.

Thank you to the Ahmed family, they were very kind, when I arrived I was sick to my stomach and Fátima took care to make lunch and dinner especially for me, very tasty food. Very grateful for that. The room has everything you needed, very clean, Internet works very well. 5 stars. Thanks.

“Definitely recommend this hotel!”
This hotel is so well done up, it’s really stylish and comfortable. The hosts were so friendly and welcoming and cooked us a delicious dinner and breakfast. The robes and slippers in the room were a lovely extra touch. The nearby palmeraie is beautiful too

“Exceptional service and value for money in a delightful oasis of calm”
An oasis of calm, tranquility and exceptionally kind and friendly hospitality. Fatima, Ahmed and their two children welcomed us with kindness and warmth, making us feel right at home from the start in this beautifully restored kasbah. The place is small and feels very exclusive. We were able to enjoy the whole place to ourselves when we arrived. Our bedroom joined on to a lovely little terrace where we drank our welcome tea and could star gaze and watch the sun rise in the morning in the palmery. The area around is truly special. Although it may take a little more effort to get here and it feels a little off the beaten track, it’s truly worth it. Think of an oasis of palm trees, crumbling Kasbahs all around and a beautiful pink mosque illuminated by the rising sun. The inn is situated in the heart of the palmery in a friendly, quiet little village just next to Skoura. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious with local goats cheese and a tasty omelette along with the usual Moroccan breakfast spread. Make sure to book dinner too as Fatima’s cooking is exceptional. At very short notice, Fatima was able to make a delightful pumpkin soup and the best vegetarian tagine of the trip along with some delicious beef for my meat-eating partner- all served beside a cosy, wood-burning fire. I had one of the best sleeps of the trip. The sheets and bed were lovely and comfortable and of an equal syandard to some luxury hotels I’ve stayed in. Definitely make the journey here to experience a tranquil stay in a little Moroccan village in the palmery. The quality of the service you receive is exceptional for the price paid.

“Simply….we loved it!”
We loved this little hotel. Basically two rooms that lead out onto a shared terrace. The owner Ahmed, trained in high end hospitality, is a delight and nothing is too much trouble. He is in no way intrusive but is always very anxious to give you a good stay. The breakfast was great and difficult to finish it was so big. We ate both evening meals there and they were excellent, cooked by his wife Fatima. We loved the location in the Palmeraie and the little hotel is surrounded by crumbling Kasbahs, dirt tracks and wonderfully friendly people going about their lives in this living Oasis. We were sorry to leave.

“A unique experience!”
It was my nicest, best accommodation in Morocco, with the best dinner prepared by the host's wife Fatima on a beautiful terrace in the sunset. Breakfast in the garden pavilion the next morning was also divine. Thanks to Ahmed for undertaking the restoration of the old house and the 'revitalization' of the area. I will be happy to come back. Thank you Ahmed, Fatima, Sara, Yohn.

“Highly recommended!! Beautiful place!”
This was the best place we stayed in Morocco! Ahmed and Fatima are fantastic, it was so interesting to chat to Ahmed, he is so relaxed and highly professional at the same time. Fatima cooked the best tajine we had in Morocco. The house is beautiful, the posh dining room.. then the very well decorated cozy room we stayed in had really good heating A/C, a comfortable bed with a cozy duvet, a well designed bathroom with hot water. Best WiFi we had in Morocco. The house is in a very quiet rural area which we loved. Beautiful view from the balcony. We put the GPS coordinates in and found it easily. Ahmed was outside the door to welcome us. We had tea in their beautiful garden. The breakfast was also amazing. There was free parking outside the door.
