This was the first place we arrived to in Morocco and David and Cesq made our stay unforgettable. We stayed in the beautiful Las Mapas room, enjoyed their scrumptious breakfasts on the rooftop terrace and picked their brains for any info we needed- they were always willing to help. Our comprehensive tour of the medinas streets by David also saved... More

My daughter and I stayed here in April 2012. The staff could not have been nicer, kinder, more helpful, or more accomodating. They were determined to make our visit to Marrakech as pleasant as possible. It felt like staying with friends. The breakfast they offered was excellent, the rooms were spotless, and the setting was charming. This was also a... More

I have never written a review on the internet before but this time I feel like I have to tell pepole about the experience we had. Aguaviva is more than a bed and breakfast. David and his friends put their heart into running the place and in the end the trip is as much a visit to them as Marrakesh.... More

Where to start? This was my third time in Marrakech and I have tried some good riads before but this one was unique. The place is just perfect. The riad is located in a area full of locals. You are therefore not surrounded with tourists. You feel you live in the "real" medina. The place in itself is outstanding. Great... More

If you want the TRUE Marrakech experience then this is the place to stay (i.e. outside the Riad doors you are in the local streets and souks not the tourist version.....).The Riad is not in the medina and is hard to locate...however the staff carefully ensure that you are well oriented and came to greet us and show us the...

Returned recently from a most memorable trip with my husband and 22 yr. old daughter. Having read trip advisor reviews in advance, I felt certain that we must stay at Riad Aguaviva. This certainly proved to be so true - the hosts are genuine, helpful, charming and want to be sure you have a great time experiencing exotic Marrakech. The... More

My boyfriend and I stayed 3 nights and never imagined the warm welcome we would encounter here. Not only it was a beautiful riad with a lovely garden and pool but each room is carefully decorated to suit your personality (how romantic or adventurous may be). Every morning we were greeted with a delicious breakfast and a smile. And on... More

A truly memorable experience. Like most riads, the outside gives little hint as to what lies behind, namely an exquisite, tastefully restored & beautifully decorated Alladin's Cave, a microcosm of Marrakech itself. Comfortable rooms, a fabulous rooftop terrace where delicious & sumptuous breakfasts are taken but what made the experience so unforgettable were our hosts David & Cesc, not forgetting... More

Our group of 9 traveling women had a fabulous stay at the riad. The rooms were beautifully decorated-top notch! Our hosts were amazing. They led us through the streets of Marrakech so we would feel more confident walking around -AND pointed out landmarks so we could find our way home again...which was harder than we thought it would be...lol..they suggested...

To counterbalance the frenetic energy that pulses throughout Marrakech both night and day, one needs a peaceful and sublime shelter. Riad Aguaviva, located a short distance away from the main action, is exactly that sort of place. It is beautifully decorated, well maintained, clean and comfortable. Breakfasts on the rooftop terrace are a delicious start to your day. The rooms... More
