In addition to no electricity to charge my laptop or phone, no aircon, and no wifi, this meant there was no water in my room.

Of course they couldn't care less and still charged us.

However when we showed up 2 days later the owner (Slimane) was very understanding and we stayed that night at now further charge.

however, was to be aided in our troubles with bank cards and almost running out of Dirhams as far from any big city as you could get.

Behind the doors you enter Paradise , the manager Ibrahim really knows what hospitality means !

We had no idea what to expect before we arrived and were totally blown away from the moment we stepped foot in the door.

The only problem we found is that in our room bathroom was not separated from rest of the room by proper door

From the moment you pass through the front door, you are almost overwhelmed by the beauty, peace and tranquility of this Riad.

although the Baby bed was no longer fully functional (one end sagged down) and we don't understand why such a nice place does not have doors between bed room and toilet area, just curtains.

We booked a triple room that we did not like, because it was small for a triple room and is dark with both door and window facing the courtyard where they serve drinks.

On top of that, the staff is very friendly, flexible and professional.

The food is really nice and people super friendly!

We also met the owner and he was also very friendly.

Super friendly staff, very clean and very welcoming.

The staff are professional very helpful friendly and speak English well.

Ibrahim and saida give us  very good service, they are really friendly,  we are really happy in this hotel, we highly recommend.

The staff is extremely friendly and attentive to their guests.

What's more, everyone here are friendly, and the food is amazing.

The service was excellent and the staff was more than friendly!

Ibrahim was very helpful and the lady serving dinner and breakfast (I forgot her name) was really friendly and provided the best service we had in Morocco.

Located just adjacent to the Zagora palmerie, the riad offers a beautiful pool, a huge garden with grass and shade and 11  very comfortable rooms.

Great Location, in this hot month makes much more better!

Located next to an area with local orchards that deserve a walk.

Very beautiful location and Personal so Kind, especially Ibrahim Saida and khalid , they are beautiful person that make us feel like at home !

The location is awesome as well: next to Jbel Zagora (climb to the top, the view is stunning), on the edge of the Draa Valley and close to the desert.

Beautiful location, relaxing pool, great wifi and fantastic dining experience pool side.

Wonderful, peaceful and elegant location.

A Nice place - excellent service by Ibrahim, the manager- good atmosphere, authentic and done with style and quality A good outside and quality food Enjoy your stay It's a great location inside as well outside Moroccan style

The riad is well located, clean, bright, with beautiful decor!

The location is great and overall, I would stay at this property again if in Zagora!

The hotel is located in a quite part of town.

The evening meals are super and the breakfast was the best, so much choice and all so fresh, set's you up for the day in a stunning location.

but well worth it for a safe and relaxing stop after several days riding and just before entering the desert in earnest
It is located in the outskirts of the city and can take a bit of work to find so it is best to research the route ahead of time.

The hotel is small and located on a quiet street outside of Zagora.

The Riad can be found in a quiet location on the south side of Zagora in the Palmeria.

The staff could not have been more professional and kinder, including Ibrahim who ran the front desk snd Sayeda who served and I believe cooked our meal.

The staff are so warm and welcoming - and always willing to help.

Brahim and Saida were so warm and welcoming also very professional, the food was delicious the ambiance was exactly what i needed.

The stuff here are very polite and helpful.

Ibrahim was so kind and helpful after a very long trip to Zagora.

The staff was very careful to attend to the guest's every need, and the breakfast and dinner served were outstanding.

The owners are awesome as well, we spent such a great time there.

The food is delicious and the staff warm and welcoming, from Ibraihim the manager to Ibraihim, one of the attendants, who showed me all around the palmerie.

Most importantly, Ibrahim and the staff were superb, so accommodating and helpful, on hand for anything.

My sister and I were the only two guests at the riad and the staff went our of their way to make our stay as pleasant as possible for us.

Ibrahim, our host,  is incredibly delightful and accommodating and so knowledgable about the property.

Great hotel, very welcoming and catered for all our needs.

.. Nice rooms With private terrace on top

(thanks again Ibrahim, you were on top of all the details for us).

To say the property is stunning, is an understatement.

The breakfast and dinner were amazing and the view is wonderful

A large swimming pool surrounded by a beautiful courtyard, of stunning architectural features.

Filled surrounded by brothers & sisters without forgetting the good eating, home services & the excellent atmosphere indoor as well outdoor Riad dar Sofian like pool area & oasis view

After a long drive from Marrakech through the  mountains, this was a place of enchantment and peace at a reasonable price.

but no window to open so we left the only window in the room open all the time.

but the main disappointment is the shower room.

but aside from low water pressure in shower I would change nothing b

The toilet flushing was also a little finicky,

And the manager assured us that they did have rooms with a bath.

Don't expect to find luxury or the amenities and type of service of a large hotel.

Nice pool, beautiful surroundings, I would definitely recommend this place!

Clean, excellent service, amazing food and beautiful surroundings inside and out.

We really liked the atmosphere of this small hotel.

The entrance lobby is lovely with a wonderful collection of paintings.

Absolutely wonderful place to stay: comfortable and stylish rooms, beautiful gardens, delicious food, welcoming staff- a glorious little oasis in which to relax and unwind.

The rooms are cozy (the heating worked very well), and the indoor common spaces are charmingly decorated.

We had an intimate evening with other guests in a small side room and we all ended up becoming fast friends for the night over a lingering supper.

Not a hotel if you want characterless chain facilities - a perfect en famille inn with wonderful hospitality, food, simple, elegant rooms and a beautiful blend of Moroccan and French joie de vivre.

As a surprise they made a cake for my boyfriend's birthday 👍
I Higly recommand this nice homely stay!

Ma Villa au Sahara in Zagora offers a unique style of accommodation that can be likened to staying in a desert villa with a touch of Gallic influence.

We loved all the artwork, furniture and little interesting touches.

The garden and rooms at the villa are filled with a lovely pool, plants, art and books.

The food was delicious and the atmosphere was very friendly and welcoming.

The whole staff is very welcoming and the room was very clean and comfortable with hot shower and wifi, the traditional building architecture makes for a very healthy stay as well.

The Villa Zagora felt immediately like home: the modern twist to a traditional architecture and the use of local building techniques, makes for a very cosy feeling.

There is a nicely decorated, comfortable sitting room just off the patio.

The stuff was very friendly and the food was delicious!

The staff was super friendly and welcoming.

You are given a welcoming greeting on arrival by the helpful and friendly staff who create a homely atmosphere reflected in the style of the house in which you feel you might be staying with an absent family who have departed to leave you to enjoy their comfortable house, look at their paintings and enjoy their books.

Her staff was very friendly and accomodating, serving us delicious breakfast and dinner.

The food was good and service very friendly.

but the hosts were welcoming, and staff friendly and happy (loved the singing coming from the kitchen!)

The garden is gorgeous, there are food-goddesses in the kitchen working their magic (and have lovely singing voices), the rooms are clean, a lot bigger than expected and the staff are very friendly and helpful.

Moha was particularly friendly and helpful.

During the evening we had a great dinner and Moha and his staff were very passionate and caring about giving us the best of their service and food and they were so very friendly.

The staff are friendly and happy to help you arrange desert tours, taxis or anything you could want.

Very friendly people and very nice room!!

though was the staff-they were very friendly and helpful, and went out of their way to make this a wonderful stay.

We were made to feel so welcome and the staff were extremely friendly and kind with the children.

Besides a dusty road, hidden behind dusty walls, there you will find Villa Zagora - an awesome nice, clean and friendly place.

The service could not have been better - they were very helpful and friendly.

However, if you look for a friendly, relax and local colored place then this is your hotel!

Everything about it, from the gardens and welcome on arrival through to the rooms and food and the friendly

We stayed at Villa Zagora, a very friendly, delightful Moroccan house set in the green peace of the palm grove, under the peak of Mount Zagora, a fine mix of old and modern.

In fact, reality is far more beautiful than any photos on their website.

Images of places had merged and my photo’s had faded or become lost in moves.

Additionally, a pleasant change to be able to have a bottle of wine with your meal.

We agreed to have dinner at the hotel and it was, by far the best meal we've ever had in Morocco!

You can exchange on their culture the food and the places around.

The food and hospitality were amazing and the children loved the swimmingpool and their tent on the roof!

but not least: the food was absolutely delicious!

Having said that the welcome and atmosphere is perfect and it is only ten dirhams to go by taxi into town where there are shops and restaurants.

Delicious food , great suite and beatiful maintained garden.

Dinner in said garden was a memorable experience.

We were given delicious Moroccan coconut and anisette cookies with mint tea upon entering and filled out our paperwork by a warming stove. Dinner that night was casual and very French (thank you for the wine!)

Everything was perfect, from relaxing by the pool to the delicious food in the evening and morning.

We appreciate the dinner sevred in a cosy room, as well as for the breakfast.

Everything was clean and comfortable and we had a lovely dinner with wine.

First class staff to pamper you with food and drinks around the pool.

Thanks to the guide we saw old remaining's of Kasbahs, villages along river Draa  and we even visited the Sahara desert, having lunch in a Nomad tent.

The amazing staff make you feel at home immediately .

The staff were nice enough to hold some of our extra luggage while we were gone.

The staff are on hand for your every need.

Ahmed greeted us with a smile, as we drove up to the driveway and helped us with our luggage.

We were made very welcome and during our stay the staff have been marvelous.

Breakfast was again on the terrace and the staff all came to see us off.

Michele and her team were incredibly kind and helped us have a fantastic stay.

Thank you, entire staff and Michelle for a wonderful night.

We stayed one night with Michele and her faithful small team at this delightful little auberge on the Palmier side of the river, a short walk from the main town.

Michelle, the owner, was welcoming and went out of her way to ensure our stay was the best it could be.

Michelle, the owner, greeted us and made sure that we had everything we needed.

Madame is charming and their library of books and information about Zagora, the Sahara and Morocco in general is educational and helpful.

We had a lovely stay in Villa Zagora, thanks to Michelle, the owner of the villa and her crew.

Michèle and her staff make you feel at home from the minute you arrive!

The owner is a French woman who has created a casual style of accommodation in a secluded house with a rambling garden setting which includes a pool and quiet corners for relaxing, reading and taking a bit of sun.

Michelle/owner welcomed us with wonderful refreshing tea in her garden by the pool.

Kind, helpful, informative and always considerate, he should teach a class in hotel hospitality.

The option of sleeping under the stars on the roof gave me the memorable experience of falling into slumber to the distant, soft, mesmeric music from a nearby Berber wedding which went on into the night.

I would recommend Villa Zagora to anyone looking for an authentic Moroccan experience with all the comforts of the finest accommodations anywhere in the world! !

And then the most important aspect to us, is the people, in this area too Michèle is spot on: we where warmly taken care of by Moha, who took us for a very nice two hour walk in the palmeraie that he knows like the back of his hand, telling us all sorts of anecdotes and cultural information on the life there.

We had a delicious dinner on the patio, prepared expertly by the kitchen staff whose beautiful singing enriched the experience.

Before we arrived we arranged a dessert trek to Erg Chicaga with Michele and it was a great experience.

We were greeted by Mohamed who wore a huge smile the whole time we were there, he couldn't do enough for us, Moha took us on a fantastic walk through the groves which were stunning, the dates were just dripping off the palms and the light amazing, Michelle too was charming, thank you all so much, your hospitality was superb, i will definitely be recommending this place.

Dinner was equivalent to or better than what we experienced at Al Fassia in Marrakech the previous night, and that's saying something.

A wonderful spot with great food and hospitality.

staying experience

decor

cold concrete floor in my bedroom needed a rug or two for warmth and a re-paint & sheets could a bit bigger so tucked in; plumbing in bathroom was basic & leaked; dining room needs to be a more welcoming place to dine

but still a little too cold for us visiting in March.

After travelling through chaotic Fez, then a cold bus journey to the desert then another stress trip La Petite Kasbah came as such a relief.

but if you want customers to your traditional style guest house in cold weather you need to be a bit more geared up.

The rooms were clean, comfortable and air conditioned, and the pool and the upstairs patio and dinners made the experience all the more enjoyable!

A delightful little guest house, with spacious and comfortable rooms overlooking the palm grove.

It is a very comfortable place where I could feel at home being far away.

The room was spacious, clean and comfortable.

You will experience the real feel of a kasbah with all the comfort one needs.

Our room was spacious, clean and comfortable with an ensuite bathroom.

It was just a pleasant experience and we really wished we could have stayed longer! La Petite Kasbah is highly recommended for a comfortable and pleasant stay in Zagora :)

but it gives you this comfortable homy feeling, where you just can be yourself.

We felt so very well looked after and it was very comfortable.

but comfortable rooms with good beds and a small pool to cool off.

The pool area is lovely and the terrace with comfy chairs and additional area that over looks the pool is wonderful.

The beds were comfy, the bathrooms amazing and there was even air con and a swimming pool!

The beds are comfy, the rooms are fine and the pool (only been built for a couple of years) is great - deep and cold.

The room we stayed we clean and comfortable.

Very clean, beautiful, comfortable hotel!

Abrahim, the owner of the Kasbah was welcoming, we made use of the kitchen, the rooms were warm, clean and the beds very comfortable.

Everything in the B&B was in accordance with the culture and the habits of the country without loosing any comfort.

We had a great desert-experience with our friend Mustapha who made our stay in the desert so comfortable.

Stunning family hostel with perfect facilities and lovely stuff.

Incredible experience made possible by the owner and his family.

My family and I stayed here just one night on our way to the desert, and we were touched by the hospitality shown to us and the overall charm of this place.

We were visiting as a family, and were very happy with staying in the kasbah.

Originally his family home, he converted it into a boutique guest house in 2009.

Together with the renewed interiour and reconstruction of his family inheritage the owner made this place as a real Oase!

We can only warmly recommend the "Petite Kasbah" that support a very authentic, traditional while modern family. Sophie, Fabrice, Thomas (12) and Jessica (10)

Brahim, Ali, Jamila and team went out of their way to make feel us at home in what had been Brahim's family home.

My family and I stayed here before venturing into the desert for camel and tents.

Not only did we stay in a lovely kasbah we also were taken to see a Mustapha's beautiful family house and sliver making in the local area.

I was treat like family, by the whole staff.

Stayed at La Petite Kasbah for 4 nights, and i must say that we were treated like members of the family.

Brahim and his family are creating something with heart and soul and should be proud about it.

I stayed 4 nights with brahim and his family at La Petite Kasbah Hotel.

Our group of 8 spent one night with brahim and his family at their Kasbar.

The staff were exceptional and very friendly and welcoming.

Had evening meal which was good and served by friendly staff.

We found the owner/manager and staff here really friendly, kind and helpful.

but not least, the staff is so incredibly friendly, helpful and attentive that you simply don’t want to leave.

Excellent welcome, very helpful and friendly staff.
