“Lovely setting, lovely hosts, food just ok”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 February 2012

We came with our 3 boys, ages 15, 13 and 11, and enjoyed our time there quite a bit. This was the fourth (of five) places we stayed on our 10 day journey through Morocco; and it was here that we "rested." We did no sight-seeing and ate 3 meals per day here. This place was good for that...very quiet, large grounds with lots to explore, decent (not exceptional) masseuse, fun diversions like table tennis and scrabble, lovely terrace for relaxing, good Wifi and good (not great) food. (The breakfasts were actually a little disappointing, but dinners and lunch were very good.) The proprietress's English was not good, but despite that, she took us on a full tour of the grounds, showing us the orchards and garden plots, the honey bee boxes, the barns; and she gave us a nice history of their ownership. I felt very welcome and a part of the "family" after her hospitality. I would recommend this place for a couple of nights.

“A New Year treat”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

My partner and I, plus a friend, stayed at Sawadi Lodge for three nights which included New Year's Eve. We were warmly greeted on arrival and shown to our lovely bungalows. The staff made us all feel very much at home in the delightful house. The food was excellent with plenty of home grown and beautifully cooked vegetables. The New Year's Eve party was great fun with dancing to a local Berber band. I would thoroughly recommend it for its peaceful setting, the friendliness of the staff and excellent cuisine. It is also a perfect base for exploring the gorges.

“Relaxation and delight in the palm groves”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 January 2012

We stayed at Sawadi for a single night and felt thoroughly welcomed and looked after by the whole team at Sawadi. The simple, homely decor and atmosphere made us wish we had longer to spend there. Food was truly excellent, the accomodation peaceful and in beautiful surroundings and the cycle ride through the palm groves magical. The only thing stopping us giving full marks was the slightly sporadic hot water. We will definitely be back for a longer visit soon!

“An Oasis”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 December 2011

This place is owned by a french couple that are friendly and kind. The staff are happy and really friendly!! The place has little houses in the large garden. The little houses are beautiful and comfortable inside. Our room also had a wood fire which the owner lit every night for us. We took the bike tour which was the highlight of my trip as Mansour took us to his house and made us Moroccon tea. We found out he is an actor and has made a couple films which we will watch. The food was lovely, but we were a little shocked how much the evening dinner cost us when we got the overall bill.
