Brilliant location, a peaceful oasis in the medina, lots of space, Ali and Yassine were both very helpful and Latifa cared for us with so much kindness

Wonderful location with easy access to the main eyespots in Marrrakech. Amazingly wuiet considering it’s proximity to the souk and main pedestrian thoroughfares. Would absolutely stay again.

Stunning and very peaceful Riad, but also so close to the hussle and bussle of the Médina, souks and restaurants. Latifa made us lovely brekky every morning, which we ate by the pool. Had an excellent welcome with detailed recommendations for the city. Transport also arranged to and from airport. Would highly recommend and definitely love to stay here again if in Marrakech!

Not much that I didn’t like. It is in the medina (old town) so if you want a ‘Holiday Inn’/ big hotel vibe, this may not be for you.

I booked the riad for a family holiday, where we could be centrally located on the old city but able to travel out on day trips. I wanted something in the old city not in a touristy hotel - so my choices are not the basic tourist package. For me, the riad needed to be beautiful, a cultural experience, with excellent service available - and this one ticked all the boxes! Ali, whose family home this was, was an excellent host and dropped in when needed and gave good travel advice as well. Letifa, the housekeeper/ cook, was star, exceeding expectations and preparing delicious breakfasts even when we needed to leave extra early on day trips - but more than that, she seemed really keen that the family was happy. I knew the riad was a good find when I booked it, but by the end of the holiday my expectations were exceeded.

Service was super.

Stayed in December 2024

Although the pool is heated, it is not warm enough for us (Asians). There was a problem with the payment, so I had to pay the host outside the platform (money transfer). It was my first time, so I was anxious, but Booking.com helped to make sure that I am sending the payment to the host and not to someone else.

Everything. Ali, Yassin, and Latifa were all helpful. Perfect for family and friends who want an exclusive place for themselves. Tuck away from the busy streets, but close enough where the actions are. Close to Jemaa El-Fnaa. The Souq can be confusing to navigate at first, so better ask the host to arrange your airport transfer.

I would prefer to have also a security camera for safety

The location, the experience and the whole treatment

Stayed in October 2024

EVERYTHING, I could not fault it at all. The staff Ali and Latifah were absolute saints, tended to all of our needs and Latifah made a beautiful breakfast each morning and dinners. Such a sweet, kind and amazing woman she deserves everything. Ali was also so helpful, on arrival Ali gave us a map and showed us where to go and where not to go as tourists. Always available to answer questions on WhatsApp and just genuinely so helpful at all times! I can’t put into words how great they both were. Ali also arranged for a taxi to collect us from the airport which of course went smoothly.

So big and spacious, perfect location as it’s based literally around the corner from the Madinah. Very clean and felt like being at home, was able to tan and layout on the top floor on the sun beds and they also had an outside shower for you to cool down. Honestly couldn’t fault the property one of my best stays abroad.

No tv, so we were unable to watch the Champions League Final!

An oasis of calm within the chaos of the Medina. Getting into the pool after returning from the 39 degrees heat outside was amazing!

Stayed in June 2024

No access with cars because of location so had to walk 10 min to our transport everyday, a little long sometimes

Amazing stay in a private RIAD ! The pictures don’t even do justice. Amazing hosts, amazing stuff (Latefa❤️) and the place was juste sublime !

Stayed in May 2024

Beautiful riad maintained to a high standard with modern traditional blend of decor, plenty of space with 4 bedrooms and bathrooms including an indoor pool and rooftop terrace. In a quiet side street not far from busy market streets, close walk to main square. We had a lovely housekeeper, Latifah who served breakfast at a time of our choice on the rooftop in the morning and very helpful with any other requests. We also had assistance with taxi and transporting our luggage and advice when we first arrived about the city from the owner Ali. Great stay and service, no negatives. We will come back one day!

Nothing to dislike!

It is a little piece of paradise in the very busy centre of Marakesh. Ali was a great host and Latifa kept us fed and the house perfectly clean. We will stay here any time we are in Marakesh again.

Nothing.

Everything, Dar Le Fennec was wonderful and Ali, Khadija & Latifa were lovely and incredibly helpful.

Not one thing to not like

Everything, loved the property, location and the staff, Ali and Latifa. Amazing people ❤️❤️

Stayed in September 2023

I have nothing negative to say about Dar Le Fennec.

Dar Le Fennec exceeded our expectations! The property was beautifully clean and spacious. It was brilliantly situated in the heart of Medina and very convenient for sight seeing. The staff (Latifa and Ali) couldn’t have been more friendly and helpful.

Stayed in September 2023

Everything was beyond our expectations. Staff especially Latifa goes above and beyond. Great location in the heart of the Medina, extremely clean Riad. 8 of us (3 adults, 2 teens, and 3 kids between 9 and 11) had the whole thing to ourselves. Kids had a blast with the pool (1.4 meters deep) very useful with the summer scorching heat of Marrakech. AC worked smoothlessly. All four rooms were very well decorated and spacious. I am returning to this Riad next time I come to Marrakech, not staying anywhere else.

Stayed in August 2023

Amazing experience. We enjoyed a lot our stay. Super clean and cozy Riad. Ali and Latifa made our vacactions unforgettable. Latifa prepared amazing breakfast every day and we had the best dinner ever cooked by her in riad. Ali helped us with everything: find excursions, book restaurants, buy sim cards, transfers, etc. He gave us a lot of tips on what to do and where to buy things. THANK YOU A LOT ALI AND LATIFA :) We will come again for sure.

Stayed in June 2023

The only minor inconvenience was that there was only one pair of keys when we went (apparently previous guests had taken the other spare keys with them), being a large group we had to coordinate amongst ourselves whenever we would split (which is easy in Marrakech).

Perfect Riad to experience the Awe factor. Quiet, just outside the main touristic areas, great hosts. Will definitely recommend it for discovering Marrakech. We were 7 and had an amazing time.

Stayed in May 2023

There was absolutely nothing to complain about. Our stay was just perfect!

The place is perfect: beautiful, spotlessly clean and relaxed. But what really made our stay special was the people. Ali and Latifah were just wonderful, not only helped us to discover Marrakesh but they really made us feel welcome. Ali told us about all the places to visit and Latifah cooked delicious meals for us and made a wonderful birthday supper for my little daughter. They were just great! If we ever come back to Marrakesh we will definitely stay again in Dar le Fennec.

we loved everything. great location, very comfortable and clean. Ali and Latifah are amazing hosts, always available to help. Latifah’s food was one of the best I have had in Morocco! Highly eecommend this place!

Great stay at Riad Dar Le Fennec. Ali was great with communication and recommendations before we arrived and was there to greet us and show us around. We took him up on organising the airport transfer which worked well and we were glad to have someone show us to the Riad as we would never have found it otherwise! Latifa took such good care of us with amazing breakfasts and a delicious dinner each night. The riad was very clean and comfortable. It was cleaned each day and beds made etc. The pool was very welcome especially for the younger members of our party. A/C in the rooms was appreciated too. The location is perfect approximately 10 mins walk from the main square. The street was fairly quiet too although there were some local children playing football on the street quite late at night a couple of times which was a bit noisy. Overall a great stay and we would go back.

Everything was superb. We loved the hosts of the house: Ali and latifa were amazing and made our stay unforgettable. I already recommend to some friends that are going there. Love it ,❤️

Stayed in February 2023

The Riad was awesome! very convenient rooms, great breakfast, super clean, great staff. Ali and Latifa were awesome. They were really helpful with everything. And the location is the best. We came as a family with 7 people with 2 over 80 and we enjoyed it very much so in addition to all the goods we actually the Riad fully ours. I highly recommend everyone from any type of group age.
