Perfect, exclusive riad with incredible hosts in the heart of the medina

What a find! If you are looking for a home-from-home experience but a world away, this is it! The riad is beautiful, smells divine, just moments from the fun and bustle of the souk and square and hosted by the kindest people you could care to meet, who will look after you in every way. We were very sad to leave. Thank you Pierre, Zineb and Ahmed for the delicious food on the roof terrace, for walking us to find our drivers and for all the recommended trips and bookings. Wonderful memories made of an incredible place.

Amazing Location and Hospilatility

Great location close to everything. No need to carry luggage or wheel luggage to this place as there are plenty of people willing to cart luggage to the Riad for a very nominal amount of 5 euros. Make sure you use the Riad’s car service. It’s cheap and easy. Lastly, the breakfast is amazing as well as the accurate description of this beautiful Riad.

The perfect retreat

My friend and I wanted a quiet retreat to enjoy after exploring this bustling city. This riad did not disappoint! It is a wonderful haven, but perfectly central in the town. The icing on the cake was Zineb, who came to make our breakfast each day and then clean our riad whilst we were out exploring. Her attention to detail was exemplary and her warm personality was truly lovely. This riad gave you flexibility, but with a hotel-style experience. I highly recommend.

Pleasant Stay

We stayed here at the end of a three week trip. The property is beautifully decorated with lots of attention to detail and amazing lighting. The beds were amazing. It's an interesting layout that is probably more like other riyads - the bedrooms open directly outside (to the courtyard). There are seating locations that are also outside on both the 1st and 2nd levels. Just something to keep in mind if you are looking for a well air conditioned location. Location is ideal as it's just off the square and souks. Lots of eating options just a few blocks (or less) away. Our one complaint was the lack of a toilet in the smaller bedroom. There is one in the larger bedroom, the 1st floor, and the 2nd. Important to know depending on who is visiting. For me (in my 60s) going down or up stairs would be difficult in the middle of the night. Note this property is not accessible.

Lovely Little Riad in Marrakesh

Suitable for 4 adults - one room had a bathroom connected, the other had one outside the room but on another level. No big deal, but one couple would have to accept this. The dinner was amazing, and the service was great. Pierre was always available to answer questions and help with our stay. Close to the center square, which made it a great location. Thank you!

A comfortable riad in the centre of the medina, convenient for all the major sites.

We enjoyed a very pleasant week in this peaceful and relaxing property only a few minutes away from the main central square of the medina. Fatima, Zohra and Ahmed looked after us royally with delicious meals and by keeping the whole property clean and tidy. Pierre the owner kept regular contact and arranged efficient transport to and from the airport that removed all the stress of finding the property in the small alleys of the medina. All in all I recommend this property highly, part of Marrakesh’s charm is it’s chaos and full on experience. The haven of the Riad and the wonderful team running it gave us the necessary downtime to recharge our batteries when needed. Thank you

A wonderful oasis in the heart of the Medina

Completely as advertised. The Riad was comfortable, quiet, and beautifully furnished. The service was terrific and food prepared by Fatima and Zohara was a real highlight. The ability to enjoy the sensory overload of the Medina right outside the door and then retreat to this oasis made for a very enjoyable week.

The Riad was lovely Very clean Fatima Zoha and Armad were brilliant would do anything to help you

The Riad was fine and central to the main square (Whitch has to be visited at night) the only problem could be for elderly persons is there are two sets of narrow stairs without a hand rail up to the first floor and roof terrace which isn't mentioned. Pierre was very helpful and kept in touch most days. David & Christine (Lancashire)

Great place! Great Staff!!

Pierre was very helpful to create a very special time at his place. He helped coordinate a very special dinner and Fatima and Zohra were so helpful and very friendly. We really enjoyed the meals they provided for us. Since this was our first trip to Morocco we were not sure about what to expect. We felt very comfortable at the Riad and the staff were very accommodating to make sure it was a great memory. This is very centrally located close to the main square, easy walking distance to the places we wanted to see in the old Media. Thanks very much, I would highly recommend this property.

The most perfect place to stay in Marrakech.

We have wanted to visit Marrakech for a long time but wanted a Riad to ourselves. This 2 bedroom riad is the perfect solution in every way. The property is sensitively renovated and very authentic. The location is perfect, with Jemma el-Fna Square literally 3 minutes walk from the front door. There is also a bureau de change round the corner (all Banks and BdC offered the same rates within 0.3dhm so no point shopping around). There is a wide selection of restaurants throughout the Medina all within a 15-20 minute walk. My tip would be to avoid the restaurants on square. Breakfast was plentiful and fresh each day, lunch was fabulous and we had dinner in the Riad on 2 occasions. Fatima’s cooking is at least as good as, if not better than, most of the local restaurants. We ate at Naranj and Les Cantine de Gazelle, 2 top rated restaurants in Trip Adviser and they were no better than Fatima’s cooking. Finally, communication with Pierre, the property owner, was very efficient and informative. He responded promptly every time we contacted him during the booking process and in the lead up to our stay. The week before we travelled he sent emails with loads of information and recommendations on what to do and where to go. He made all the arrangements we needed for airport transfers and drivers for any excursions we had booked ourselves. He was happy to help with everything to ensure our stay was stress free. If you want to visit Marrakech but have any apprehensions then this is the place to stay. This was one of the best experiences of my life and I would recommend Pierre, his Riad and his team very highly.

Lovely Private Riad

We enjoyed our 8 night stay at this lovely, well maintained Riad. The staff, Fatima, Zohra and Ahmed, took great care of us and we especially liked the delicious meal that Fatima cooked for us. The riad is conveniently located and is about a 2-3 minute walk to the main square. The rooftop terrace is a wonderful place to have have breakfast or to unwind after a busy day in hectic Marrakech. The owner, Pierre, was very responsive to our questions and even called a few times to make sure that everything was going smoothly. Highly recommended!

A well organised and efficient Riad

We spent 4 nights , arriving on an evening flight . Pierre had given useful advice beforehand and remained in touch during our stay. We were met at the airport and it is a short drive to the Medina . Ahmed led us through narrow streets and alleys to the Riad where a meal was waiting. We had a tour of the Medina the next day , the following day a trip to Imlil , and on final day explored more of Marrakesh. Pierre's transport and guide arrangements worked perfectly . Dar Yaoumi is very well located , it was clean and everything in working order . Small shops and a money change bureau are within a minute walk. Fatima , Zohar and Ahmed took good care of us with a mixture of French and English . We had two evening meals in the Riad and ate in restaurants in the main square on other evenings . We had a most enjoyable stay and can recommend this as a good place to stay and especially the support of local knowledge and contacts so you make the most of your visit. Many thanks to Pierre and his team.

Good riad and very roomy

This is a good place to stay and while the staff speaks no english, they are extremely hospitable nonetheless. We did really enjoy our time here. However, we spent the first night at Riad Dar Beija nearby and honestly enjoyed that more, even though it was not a private riad.

An Oasis of calm in a sea of chaos

A warm welcome from a very caring team. Food excellent. Owner gave us the best customer service we have received in the house rentals we have had. Having your own house within the Medina, minutes away from the Djemaa el-Fna, lets you live like a local, well almost. We have visited more than 20 countries. Morocco/Marrakesh should be on everyone's Bucket List. Brian and Gill Williams (Nottingham, UK).

Comfortable riad close to Jemaa El Fna

Riad "Dar Yaoumi" is a haven of tranquility in the Medina of Marrakech. We enjoyed staying in the local community, with all places of interest within easy reach. The staff were welcoming and helpful. My son had an accident on one of our excursions, damaging his foot. Ahmed came to see us at 9.30 pm., and returned half an hour later with a walking stick! Fatima cooked twice for us. The meals were delicious - she must be the best cook in Marrakech. We hope to return in two or three years and would definitely choose this accommodation. The building is old, full of character and wonderfully restored.
