Kasbah Jad Auberge

Ourika Valley


This appealing family-run place has much to recommend it, starting with attractively furnished rooms, all of which offer memorable views over the valley. Take the spiral staircase to the roof for more great views and a choice spot for meals on request. There's also an indoor pool (open year-round) and a hammam.
