AMAZING 5 day stay! Absolutely beautifully decorated in Moorish style with incredible attention to detail! Eco friendly. THE BEST breakfast with a HUGE variety of fresh organic options. Beautiful roof top heated pool with loungers and stunning views of North Africa. Friendly, accommodating and attentive staff.

The staff were all very helpful and the property went above and beyond, offering all mini-bar options for free of charge, as well as packing our group a generous breakfast "to-go" as we were catching the ferry to Tangier before their included breakfast buffet would start. Terrific experience and we wish we could have stayed longer!

RUN (don't walk) to the breakfast!!

We loved our stay! The food at the restaurant is fantastic (had the croquettes and cheese plate) and the breakfast was unforgettable. Do not skip the breakfast! The freshest most delicious buffet (including a juicer where you can make your own pressed juice). The view of the port from the terrace pool is fabulous. Excellent, friendly staff. The location is perfect for taking the ferry to Tangier (short walk). We didn't have time to use the spa, but will definitely make more time on the next trip. The shower in the room is great. Our only minor inconvenience is the a/c only comes on for a short period of time, but the room does have a terrace so the air can circulate. Thanks for a wonderful stay!
