Absolutely gorgeous Riad. My room was so lovely and looked out on to the beautiful courtyard. Breakfast was an absolute feast each morning. Every staff member was friendly and helpful and did a great job! I spent 6 nights in this wonderful retreat and have zero complaints. There are only 5 rooms/suites, the building is spread out in such a way that i felt i was staying there all alone. If you are looking to escape in a sumptuous atmosphere i cannot recommend a better place to do so.

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.

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.

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.

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.
