We organize henna painting, hammam trips, cooking classes, barber massage, tours of the Medina and help organize Desert Adventures with our team of specialists, daily yoga practice, free tea on arrival and shisha smoking.

Being in a prime location, means that, we are easily accessible for taxis, and only 5 minutes walk from the famous entry gate; Bab Beujeloud and the beautifully restored Place Batha.

We are more suitable for younger guests, who want fun, livliness and an atmosphere, we are by no mean a monestry, out of season the Riad is calmer.

Our clientele are often Americans, Canadians, Kiwis, Aussies & English travelers and couples . Muslims cannot share bedrooms with Non-Muslims out of wedlock, must provide Marriage Certificate and we do not accept Moroccan or Algerian nationals. We do not accept people from the outside. Guests only. Girls we like you back if you are by yourself before 11pm, it can get sketchy at night.
