This riad is a gem. Our room was huge, clean and very comfortable. The staff is extremely friendly, even bringing us a wonderful bottle of wine with nuts and chips on our first of two nights. It was all very comfortable and I would recommend this riad.

The riad is beautiful and the rooms are very spacious and comfortable. Everyone is very helpful and attend to details. It’s walking distance to the Portuguese quarter and the beach. The breakfast was really tasty!

Felt like royalty in this small palace!

Incredible experience!! The host was amazing and so friendly! It was an absolute treat to stay in this small palace and was perfect for our family to spend time together in the very comfortable and luxurious suites. We loved the breakfast all together on the patio. Such a memorable and special stay!

Incredible riad, absolutely unimaginable from the outside and surroundings. We truly couldn’t believe our eyes after entering the amazing and elegant property. Luxurious room with so many nide details. The staff is extremely attentive. Superb breakfast at the beautiful garden, by the pond.

Hafid and the team looked after us from the day we arrived, right up until the final day we had to rush to a taxi to catch a connecting train to Marrakech. We were provided an excellent taxi service arranged by the Riad from Marrakech. The riad and our room were even more immaculate than the pictures, an absolute dream. Can’t wait to come back and stay even longer than a week on the future.

Inside the Riad is gorgeous. The small lily pond in the center was serene surrounded by other plants and trees. The reception was very welcoming and helpful when determining where to visit El Jadida. It was a little bit noisy during the night, but overall the property was a hidden gem within the city.

A stunning hidden gem of a traditional riad, a former governors house with with only 5 or 6 exsquisite rooms each depicting breathtaking tiling, archways, seating areas and alcoves. The receiving great room and gardens are stunning. The hostess greeting and breakfast setting and presentation was of royal standards. The birds, herons and fish of the central gardens offer a tranquil central garden experience few spas could match. They accomodated our very late check-in, and thank you "Rashid" for assistance for nearby parking and luggage assistence.

Riad magnifique avec un accueil parfait de la part de l'équipe qui est aux petits soins pour rendre notre séjour inoubliable. Il serait cependant souhaitable de changer la literie qui est inconfortable et de proposer des petits déjeuners avec des produits locaux. En effet quel dommage d'avoir du miel et fromage à tartiner industriel alors que les produits locaux sont excellent.

Luxe, calme et volupté

Un riad digne des palais des Mille et une Nuits. Une cour arborée paradisiaque avec un bassin aux nymphéas. Une décoration et un ameublement des suites célébrant l’artisanat marocain. Un accueil chaleureux et personnalisé de la propriétaire et de son personnel. Un petit déjeuner complet préparé avec soin. Quand on part, c’est un crève-cœur.

Beautiful road located right in the middle of El Jadida. Within walking distance to the cistern. It is located on a pedestrian only road, but if you contact the hotel before arrival they will tell you where to park. The staff were attentive and made sure our room was ready for our arrival. We thoroughly enjoyed the spread at breakfast! The rooms and common areas are beautifully decorated.

Not only was this the best property we stayed at in Morocco, but it was hands down the best accommodation I've ever experienced! We stayed in a large family suite and extended our visit. The room was absolutely stunning, the staff were friendly and always available. The serene courtyard helped us feel miles away from civilization - it was the perfect start to our week long Moroccan vacation. We were able to decompress before our adventure. The city of El Jadida was also wonderful because it wasn't filled with tourists.
