After touring Morocco on a fast paced tour we landed in Casablanca and wanted to end the vacation with a couple restful days. This place was the perfect oasis. House Manager Hafid and the entire staff here are truly committed to hospitality excellence. The accommodations are absolutely beautiful. El Jadida doesn’t offer enough for tourists to see or do for more than a couple days. We spent a lot of time at the Riad though, and it delivered on all measures.

We started our Morocco visit here. For three marvelous days , we stayed at the beautiful, wonderous Dar el Malaika in el Jadida. We stayed in the traditional garden suite which is really more like a little palace with walls covered in intricate hand sculpted filigree, and lit by a stunning overheard chandelier. Outside we both had a lounging couch in the magical garden with a lotus pond. We had a generous, delicious breakfast by this pond and we give a special thanks to the kind ladies who made this happen. At night all the lantern are lit, and the riad glowed. Afid, the efficient and good humoured manager guided us to the Capitainie restaurant in the nearby Portuguese Citie and it was perfect dining. This is a singular outstanding welcoming place and, rather than pour more superlatives into this review, I'll end with a recommendation to book this!

Morroco is the place where nothing is at it seems. We arrived in al Jadyda late afternoon and parked the car in a questionable lot walking distance from the riad. Riad is less than 3 minutes walking distance a d when the doors opened: WOW! what a beautiful place. Used ti be where the governor entertained his guests, the rooms are just royal in nature, staff was extremely helpful and breakfast was superb in the downstairs garden.

El trato, la decoración, la tranquilidad, el desayuno, todo perfecto. Pude descansar muy a gusto tras unos días de viaje y hoteles malos en varias partes del Magreb. Es un poco difícil encontrarlo pero vale mucho la pena. Volveré con mi pareja. A parte, el anfitrión me recomendó unos restaurantes impresionantes en la ciudad y servicios. Guardo un buen recuerdo de mi estancia.
