The buildings blend seamlessly into the landscape and integrate their surroundings as if they had always been there. You will find extensive gardens with two courtyards and plenty of sunny spots to relax and enjoy the scenery. Particular attention gives to respecting this fragile nature; solar panels, a water recycling system, and an ingenious bio-digester are integral to the address’s equipment.
The interior decor gives pride of place to earthy tones and local influences as a reminder that you are here in Morocco.
Each of the 26 rooms is unique and has a terrace where you can enjoy beautiful and relaxing views.
15 rooms are in the main building, and 12 more are in the gardens. I prefer those with a private swimming pool; there are only two!
