The house was beautiful in the style of a Riad. The furnishings were comfortable and we had everything we needed in the kitchen if we wanted to cook meals as well as an optional cook if we wanted. David, our host was wonderful and easy to contact when we had trouble finding the house on arrival. The only downsides were no air conditioning units in the rooms which we really needed in the summer heat and it was noisy. We only had one window downstairs where we slept and when we opened it we could hear lots of street noise late at night. They were doing construction next door which added to the noise. Also, be prepared to walk up two flights of stairs to get to the kitchen if you are sleeping on the bottom floor.
The house is lovely and well-situated in the Medina/Kasbah. It was a bit difficult for us to get our luggage to the house but, once settled in, we really enjoyed the location.
"Perfection. First time in Tangier for our party of seven..."
Perfection. First time in Tangier for our party of seven and we could not have asked for anything more. The house is perfectly situated within easy walking distance to the Casbah, the markets, and other must-see sites, with beautiful views of the Strait of Gibraltar (and Spain on clear days!). It afforded both an exceptional amount of privacy and large communal spaces to eat and gather. Impeccably decorated with beautiful and thoughtful touches throughout, striking just the right balance of elegant but welcoming and comfortable. As if this weren't enough, the lovely and generous Asmae provided more delectable meals than any we had in restaurants on the rare occasions we ate dinner elsewhere. So grateful for her culinary prowess and kindness, as well as the warmth and hospitality of the host/ owner, David, who was so helpful throughout our stay.
La casa es realmente impresionante, sin duda uno de los mejores sitios donde alojarse en TĂĄnger. Dispone de 3 plantas mĂĄs terraza y se encuentra bien situada, cerca de la Kasbah y los zocos. La decoraciĂłn estĂĄ muy cuidada y hace del lugar un sitio realmente acogedor. En nuestra visita, nos alojamos 8 personas sin ningĂșn problema.
Asma, la persona encargada de la casa, es una mujer encantadora. Nos preparĂł platos tĂpicos de Marruecos, y quedamos muy contentos y agradecidos con ella. Sin duda, un sitio 100% recomendable.
This is an exceptional house: spacious, architecturally stunning and beautifully decorated. The kitchen and bathrooms are European standard, whilst the open fire and beautiful terrace provide perfect environments whatever the weather. We were delighted with the privacy afforded by the layout of the property- even with a large party it never felt crowded, and the Medina location could not be more charming or convenient. Mme Asma, the cook/housekeeper, was charming, obliging and prepared delicious, healthy, beautifully presented Moroccan food. As a frequent visitor to Tangier, this is by far the best property I have experienced.
