Sharon did a great job organizing the trip, providing recommendations and suggestions, adjusting to our requests, and then helping us postpone when I had a work emergency. The hotels she selected where just the type we asked for, we had one driver for most of the time which made luggage and moving around easier, and the local guides used by MI were great!! She was super helpful and made the planning process easy!! I highly recommend Sharon and am glad Kim Kim linked us with Morroco Immersion!!
Hotel Reviews
Fine for a late arrival. I thought the room smelled like smoke even though it was non-smoking.
The Riad itself is nice. The walk to the Riad down the winding and sometimes dark alley was not my favorite. As a woman alone, I definitely didn't like it. It was safe, nothing at all happened, but it made me feel a bit nervous. The room was good and looked out onto the main courtyard and plunge pool. Couldn't keep the windows open as it would be to noisy, but aircon worked fine. The breakfast was good...lots of options.
it's a bit off of the beaten track, but well worth it! The staff were absolutely amazing, so nice and welcoming. The amount of food they provided was enough for at least 6 people (there were 2 of us)! and the room was really comfortable. Enough space (not huge but fine), good bathroom, window onto the garden where I watched a local family collect apricots.
If you're going to the desert, this is a nice place to pass some time. There's a nice pool, a good courtyard with both sunny and shady spots, a room off of the restaurant with some lounging options, and the rooms are good. The staff were nice, beds were super comfortable, etc!
we were the only people out of 14 tents available--which seems like it should be nice, but was a little lonely. The tent was nice, it did have aircon. if you've been on a safari in Kenya/Tanzania, it's not quite that roomy a setup, but the bed was comfortable, staff were nice, bathroom was great. No issues and would recommend. BUT, I would ask your company to make sure there will be others there--and if not maybe look at other tent options (e.g. the non-luxury group next door--same company--had about 30 tents and at least half were full that night. would have been better (and louder) atmosphere).
The room was great, food was excellent. It's a complicated maze to get in and out, but once you get that down, you can't beat the location!! Would definitely recommend it! And I loved Chefchaouen!!
It's a typical Riad off of a bit of a windy alley, but easy to find with local landmarks and centrally located. Their breakfast was HUGE and while we didn't eat dinner there, it looked like to others eating had quite a spread. The two men working there were happy to help with anything we needed and took great care of us! The decoration of the rooms and the interior in general were amazing!
The riad is in a great location, close to the main road so you don't have to haul your luggage toooo far, but within the medina and nice a quiet. It was easy to get around to shops, restaurants, etc. Beautiful space, our room was comfortable and o good bathroom. My mom and I were sharing and i think they took a double and split it, so the individual beds were very very narrow. But other than that, it was great (so if you're sharing a bed, should be excellent!)
