Dar Rihana Dades, Boumalne Dades

Tranquil mountainside retreat that provided a big contrast to the hustle of Medina. Stunning place, amazing views, gourmet meals. Their special blend of aromatic tea was a personal favorite.

It was very cold and the service as awful.

The dinner was absolutely amazing here and hospitality was very nice.
Not a lot to do in the region, but a great stop between Merzouga and Marrakesh.
Important to let travellers know that they do not accept card to pay for the meal.

Beautiful rooms, beautiful views, and the best food we had all trip! Staff was so lovely and accommodating. Highly recommend!

I would give this hotel more than 5 stars if I could! The staff was amazing. They were extremely friendly, welcoming and helpful. The tea and cookies on the roof deck when we arrived were excellent. Breakfast with 3 fresh juices and the best egg dish was a fantastic start to the day. The dinner we had at the hotel was incredible. The chef deserves Michelin Stars! I can't recommend this hotel enough!

Mohammed and his team were most welcoming and you felt at home with 5 star hospitality. The restaurant was lovely and the views not only from the hotel but within the surrounding neighborhood were stunning.

Our stay at Dar Rihana Dades was one of the absolute highlights of our Morocco trip. This guesthouse is a gem — intimate, beautifully designed, and run with so much heart that you feel like a cherished guest from the moment you arrive.

🌄 Atmosphere & Hospitality
Dar Rihana Dades is tucked into the dramatic landscapes of the Dades Valley, and the setting alone feels magical. The property is warm, peaceful, and thoughtfully decorated, with cozy rooms and stunning views. What makes it truly special, though, is the hospitality. The team is kind, attentive, and genuinely invested in making your stay unforgettable.

🍽️ The Food — Absolutely Amazing
The food here deserves its own paragraph. Dinner at Dar Rihana Dades was one of the best meals we had in Morocco — multi‑course, beautifully prepared, and full of rich, authentic flavors. Every dish felt homemade in the most elevated way, from the fresh salads to the perfectly cooked tagines to the desserts that felt like a final hug from the kitchen. Breakfast was just as impressive: generous, fresh, and full of variety. You can feel the love and pride in every bite.

What sets Dar Rihana apart is how personal everything feels. It’s a small guesthouse, so the experience is intimate and peaceful. The staff remembers you, checks in on you, and makes sure you have everything you need. It’s the kind of place where you instantly relax and feel at home.

Dar Rihana Dades is exceptional — warm, romantic, beautifully run, and serving some of the best food in the region. If you’re traveling through the Dades Gorge, this is the place you want to stay. We would return in a heartbeat.

This place was absolutely amazing! It is very well appointed. The staff are incredible, a level of service that is way beyond expectations. The food is spectacular! From the welcome tea and cookies, through breakfast and dinner, the flavors and presentation were amazing. They were exceptionally accommodating for food preferences and made alternative dishes.

An amazing room which was quite large. The food was a real change and as foodies a welcome change.

By far our favorite spot in the entire trip, this family-run boutique hotel is beautifully and uniquely appointed, luxurious, and charming. We loved getting to know the family who runs this property and the food was absolutely amazing---our best meals hands-down. Can't say enough about the experience and service.
