The hotel is a perfect layout for pool, restaurant and room. It has a sophisticated charm and all the staff were extremely helpful and welcoming. We also used the spa facilities and this also had a wonderful welcoming charm. We loved the Moroccan vibe and made the hotel feel even more luxurious! We will definitely return for another stay.

Amazing stay!

One of the most amazing stays I have ever had! The service was impeccable and the designer touches really elevated my stay. The room was beautiful and the spacious patio and bathroom were relaxing. The pool area had a great vibe with attentive servers and cold water and sunscreen. The am coffee at the pool is wonderful.

The hotel is really decorated nicely. I love the tiles in the bathroom, the beautiful bar and outside patio with fountain. The staff was friendly and accommodating Shout out to Summer who took the time to show us to our room and point out the amenities. My only suggestion is to replace the mattress. It was not firm.
