“Even better than we could have hoped for”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 January 2012

people found this review helpful

Four of us (three sisters in 20s and Mum) stayed for five nights in the larger lodge overlooking the pool and had a wonderful time, even better than we were hoping for! The lodge was spacious, with a huge sitting room, lovely interiors, clean and extremely homely. The veiws from our balcony were amazing and the open fire made up for us each night by the gardener was a lovely touch that was much appreciated. The staff couldn't have been more accomodating and genuine - a real asset to Maroc Lodge. Nothing was too much trouble and everything was very relaxed and tranquil. We ate in the restuarant area each night where we were given a variety of moroccon dishes, all fresh and delicious - including fresh olives, bread, salads and tagines. Breakfast was on our balcony each morning which was a real treat to wake up to. On Christmas day Latifa, who takes guided walks, took us on an amazing, all-day mountain walk where we were given a real insight into Berber life and met some lovely people along the way - a real pleasure to be well off the tourist trail and be able to dip into genuine moroccan life. We had an incredible picnic provided by the lodge and carried with us by donkey. A fantastic, memorable day. Beatrice and Bruno, the proprieters, are delightful, extremely welcoming and interesting people - you really felt like you were their guests. Having initially been concerned when we booked the holiday that we wouldn't find enough to do each day we really did not want to leave and could have easily stayed for a week. This is an ideal place to stay if you want to take a step back and experience real morocco but with a bit of luxury. Maroc Lodge would not suit those looking for mod-cons and hotel style accomodation, with all the bells and whistles, which makes it an amazing find for those who want a genuine tranquil break with walks, reading and a bit of culture. Exactly what we were looking for. Thank you Maroc Lodge for making our holiday so special.

We spent 4 heavenly days and nights in this place. The food and service are frst class. The accomodation is stunning and spacious. We took a walk with a local gide who was a lovely kind woman. We enjoyed such a special time here in this place and want to tell anyone who is looking for a relaxing couple of days with beautiful accomodation, pool and gardens, Maroc Lodge is the place to stay!

“Our own piece of paradise”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 September 2011

When we stayed at Maroc Lodge in August 2011, we were very lucky to have the whole place to ourselves. We felt spoiled by the wonderful surroundings, beautiful room, seclusion and privacy and the wonderful service. The grounds are amazing: lush and green; the view of the Amizmiz Valley breathtaking and 4 different pavilions are large and private. We took advantage of both lunches and dinners at the lodge and it was the best food throughout our trip. Intrigued by all the positive reviews, we decided to also go on a tour to Berber villages with Latifa, the guide recommended by David and Beatrice (the owners). What a wonderful and enlightening trip it was! Tailored to our needs, informative and allowing a glimpse into the lives of the locals without feeling hassled. Highly recommended to everyone!

Everything at Maroc Lodge was wonderful, from the transfer to the hotel to the bottle of own olive oil we received as a parting gift. Many thanks to David, Beatrice and all the staff!

“Beautiful, peaceful, but also a great way to see the real Morocco”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 May 2011

Maroc Lodge was wonderful. Absolutely stunning gardens which the owners take a great pride in quite rightly. The service and our apartment could simply not have been better. the pool is gorgeous as is the decor - something special.
But the highlight of our trip here was going out walking in the surrounding hills and villages. Maroc Lodge has good links with great local guides. Our guide - Omar - took us out to see berber villages and experience the hospitality of some of the frinedliest people you could meet. Not at all "touristy", a great enjoyable experience. My seven year old loved being on the donkey. What an adventure - we would definitely go back to Maroc Lodge.
We founf Morrocco enormously welcoming and friendly and hope to be back soon.

“Perfect”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 April 2011

Maroc Lodge isn't what you'd expect from a hotel. Its a series of small bungalows arranged around a pool with extensive gardens and a small restaurant. We stayed in the two bedroom bungalow as a family of 4 with children, 13 and 10yrs. Everything about our stay was perfect. Our bungalow was very spacious and felt very much like a home rather than a hotel. The meals and service were wonderful. Breakfast was served to our terrace consisting of fresh bread, crumpets, pancakes, pomegranate and honey so fresh it still hummed. We took lunch in the shade of the trees by the pool and dinner in the restaurant.
Our hosts, Bruno, David and Beatrirce were very welcoming, be sure to ask Bruno the fascinating story of Maroc Lodge and how his father saved the life of the King.
When we weren't lazing by the pool we took the services of Latifer, a local guide who tool us trekking through the local villages on foot and on mule. We also took a trip further up the mountains and had tea with friends of Latifer in their mountain village home. The lady of the house took a shine to my youngest daughter declaring her to be a Berber child descended from heaven to bring the household good luck.
I'd thoroughly recommend Maroc Lodge to anyone who likes venturing off the beaten track, but still enjoys staying in luxury. Maroc Lodge is very suitable for children, our two enjoyed it as much as we did. Whether you stay by the pool enjoying the gardens, or venture out into the countryside you will thoroughly enjoy your stay here. I intend to return.

Room Tip: Be sure to visit the local market on Tuesdays.
