"Having stayed at the RIU a few times we thought we'd try something different to end our week away. We booked this last minute purely based on price and the picture but what a hidden gem. Was a bit nervous arriving, first time the taxi had ever been there, down a dirt road and greeted with a solid door and buzzer but you're in for a lovely surprise. Greeted immediately by staff, inside the walls there's a 5* safe haven, quiet, sereen, private and peaceful.
The room (we stayed in 09 with a second bedroom attached) was better than the pictures, everything styled perfectly.
The architecture is just unbelievable, built from mud/clay and straw, about as authentic as you can image, inside it's plastered, air conditioned.
2 swimming pools and plenty of double sun beds, staff delivering drinks and food as you need. Prices are fine, £4.50 for a glass of wine.
The evening meal was truly excellent, lamb shank (£17), chicken tagine, mixed Moroccan starters. Breakfast just as delicious. Honestly one of the best meals we've had.
If you want a few nights of peace and tranquillity with a spa like vibe, this is for.
We'll be back :)"
