Lovely place, beautiful gardens, clean rooms, amazing food and friendly, helpful staff. Extremely relaxing, nothing is too much trouble for the staff and it all feels rather luxurious. Highly recommended.

We stayed on our Honeymoon and had an absolutely amazing time. The Gardens are beautifully kept and provide a welcome oasis for the weary explorer and from intensity of the Medina's.

Peaceful and relaxing stay. Amazing food and very friendly helpful staff. Spa on site. About 20 minutes drive from the beach for those wishing to do water sports. Stayed in a luxe room which was spacious and had a very large bath. Recommended for a relaxing break!

In my opinion this is what luxury is about: charming and well kept premises, friendly and efficient service, attention to detail, reasonably sized. Highlights were: massages at the spa, 25m swimming pool besides a smaller family friendly one, Moroccan pancakes at breakfast, fireplaces in the "douaria" apartments, and staff friendliness. We stayed on a special occasion and everyone at Jardin... More

Right from the start, this place exceeded our expectations. We were given the warmest welcome, and were made to feel genuinely valued. All of the staff were very attentive and friendly. The chef was brilliant, producing absolutely outstanding food. My wife was unwell for a couple of days (nothing to do with the hotel I might add!) and they really... More

We stayed at Le Jardin des Douars for a week with a group of 75 friends and we loved it. Friendly people and stunning surroundings. Easy access to the golf and beach. Our room (14) was a bit dark and beds are hard, but I talked to the owner and he told me that most rooms will be soon redecorated.

We stayed here for nearly two weeks and loved it. The architecture is just beautiful, all curves and rough edges and very atmospheric. And the gardens are gorgeous - full of hidden spaces, fragrant and loaded with fruits. The two pools are lovely and relaxing, if a little cold in October. We had a small baby with us and found...

We took a taxi from Marrakech and were delighted to arrive after our 2 hour journey at this stunning location. The mature gardens with cascades of blossoms and exotic plants make it a mini Kew Gardens! We stayed at one of the little houses away from the main house which was quiet and private.
