It has been a mixed bag in terms of stays with some exceeding expectations on certain fronts while falling short on others.

It may also be a good idea for the hotel to invest in a back-up generator, inverter (like a battery for a few hours’ worth of electricity), or solar solution in the case of power outages.

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.

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.

But do yourself a favor don't you dare to order dinner is you don't like vomiting and soft stool for hours.

but one has to order them at least 1 hr before.

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.

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 amazing staff make you feel at home immediately .

Moha, the property manager, greeted us at dinner and told us to relax and to feel at home.

It’s roomy and you feel you are free to wander into all its areas.

A little gems that makes u feel home, a perfect spot in zagora and on the way to the desert.

We felt at home straightaway and would have happily stayed longer.

From the moment we arrived after a long day on the road, Villa Zagora was a safe and quiet haven where we felt we were being welcomed into a friend's home.

The owners are very warm and hospitable and made us feel comfortable and at home.

This felt like home and it tasted for more.

Plenty of charming little places to sit down and relax.But what really makes the difference , is the great staff .They are so nice and do everything to make you feel at home.You couldn't feel more welcome than this .We really would have liked to stay longer than one night.

We felt very priviledged to have stayed here and thoroughly recommend it.

The women really know how to cook there and Ahmed will do everything for you to feel comfortable.

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.

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

but don’t want or need the corporate luxury of international cloned hotels so when I found Villa Zagora on the internet it seemed to be just right.

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.

We visited this hotel en route to the desert.

We stayed in this hotel for 1 night whilst on a tour to the Sahara.

I was fortunate enough to stay in this hotel on a package tour of Morocco.

We spent two days at Villa Zagora to take a break on the long route from Marrakech to M'Hamid (desert).

This is a haven of peace and tranquility in which to relax if you are on route to the desert.

His English is good enough to tell you all about the habits in the Oasis, the Draa valley, history and construction of the kashbas.

Knowing the story of this Riad construction was very interesting and people were always nice, helpful, the food was delicious, from the pastilla to the fresk and diverse breakfast on the terrasse.

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

however was appalling - dark, shabby and the shower/toilet .

However, it is worth using this charming guest house as a hub and taking a few days to discover the stunning Draa Valley.

We were able to walk to the river through the gardens in amongst the date tree forest which spans the Draa Valley for sunset and climb the big hill/mountain for sunrise.

located is the hotel next to the palmeraie, draa valley.

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.

In the end he proved very friendly, as did the other people working there.

Clean, colourful, friendly and unpretentious, I highly recommend it!

They are very friendly And they arranged a lot to make THE stay more easy!

Food is delicious, service is very friendly and helpful.

Very friendly and helpfull staff, arrived at the end of the day we were welcomed by the full staff who helped us with the suitcases.

All the guys working there were friendly and couldn't be more helpful.

but I really liked the friendly staff and the kasbah.

The owner is a friendly guy and the breakfast is a real treat – with various sorts of delicious homemade marmolades.

Mustapha, is fantastic as well , very knowledgeable, intelligent, and extremely friendly and helpful.

The owner Brahim, is extremely friendly and helpful.

It is a small, charming guesthouse offering simple, comfortable accommodation, run by Brahim and Ghizlane, a lovely, friendly, helful young couple who will make you feel very welcome.

Even if it is classified as a hotel, it is not, as it does not offer the service of a hotel.

The terrace offers wonderful views to the palmery and main street, the only downfall are the flies, so annoying when you trying to soak in the sun :-).

Brahim and his team went out of their way to make every minute of my stay a perfect one.

Our host was very attentive  and welcoming.

From the moment you are warmly greeted at the door, you feel like you are home.

The service is wonderful and the owner and his family were some of the loveliest people we met in Morocco.

but their generosity really made our day!!

Thank you to the staff of La Petite Kasbah and Ali from Caravane de Reve for your kindness.

Ali was very helpful in organising the trip to Sahara, which turned out very nice, while Hasan made sure we felt at home in the kasbah, with many small gestures of kindness.

but we must say this is the friendliest staff we've ever seen, not only in Morocco, but anywhere in the world.

Like the owner, brahim, ali and houssine speak excellent English.

Great small hotel with lovely owners and very good food.

I stayed here on tour in December and was charmed, hosts are welcoming and food great, especially the b'stilla (chicken pie with layers of fine pastry) which is to die for!!

Ali, one of the staff, also acts as a professional guide; with reasonable rates and friendly disposition I recommend his services.

The staff are incredible, so gracious and accommodating.

but the ambience of the colourful floral bouquets took away the stress of the day.

The interior of the hotel is quite austere,

The rooms are invitingly decorated in Berber style with vividly painted walls, nomad carpets, tiles  and interesting light fixtures.

In summary, the comfortable rooms with their spacious bathrooms, the cheerful service, overall aesthetic and decent prices, Auberge Restaurant Chez Ali  is excellent value for the money.

The hotel and gardens are so lovely with all kinds of artistic beauty and natural flare.

The best aspect of this hotel was the garden, it has a large nomad style tent and has a very relaxed atmosphere.

My room (#16 garden) had lots of attention to detail-- long full chocolate drapes puddling on the floor with tasteful beaded trim with an embroidered sheer overlay hanging on handmade rods which match the romantic scrolled metalwork of the double bed. The linens were fresh and clean and covered in a beautiful coverlet woven in a range of orange hues which coordinate nicely with the terra cotta colored tiles and the amazingly beautiful Tadelakt walls (moroccon wall treatment originally used in Hammams; waterproof lime plaster mixed w pigments and polished w a stone to give it a smooth lustrous finish-- absolutely beautiful!)

Nice breakfast served in the lovely garden with orange trees and bougainvilleas in all colours – and a fresh rose on the table every morning.

We had in a colourful, comfortable ensuite, reasonably priced in comparison to other hotels we stayed in; the balcony overlooked a jewel of a garden- bougainvillaea in all colors and a  bright pool in the distance.

The garden and pool are beautiful and offer a great environment to relax, read and feel at home.

Having visited another hotel in the town and not feeling the best vibe we made our way to Jardin Ali to check it out.

This guest house is beautifully decorated with comfortable rooms.

The calm ambience of this auberge was perfect after Marrakesh.

From that point forward, we were made to feel as if we were at home away from home.

Everytime i visit Chez Ali it is always a great place that make me relaxe, awesome garden and wonderful person you feel yourself in your own home,thank you so much and until next time keep going.
