Üdülőházak Ouirganéban

Keith Egyesült Királyság

We had an amazing time at Riad Idar. Our host and his family were so kind to us - they made us so welcome, and went above and beyond our expectations in taking care of us when one of us was ill. The home-cooked Moroccan food they provided was delicious and they were happy to accommodate our requests. We had an entire floor to ourselves, with balcony, mountain and garden views, wood fire, lounge space, bedrooms and ensuites. The bed was very comfortable and we slept blissfully. This was just what we needed as a break from the hustle and bustle of the city we came from. Our host took us on a 2.5 hour walk around the local hill villages, and gave us a sense of the local agriculture, history, society, culture, and the impressive water engineering, as well as some amazing views. It was sobering to see the impact of the Sep 2023 earthquake (we were there only ten weeks after the quake), but good to see repairs being made and the great work the government is doing to repair and rehome affected families. Our riad itself was fine, but some of the buildings nearby had clearly been impacted. All the locals were delighted we came and we were pleased to be able to support the recovery in a small way by our presence as tourists. There is a shop in the village and a number of good cafes and restaurants around, but we were content to eat home-cooked food in the riad. The area is beautiful and there are plenty of walks in the area. We were presented with the WiFi code when we arrived and had fast internet, but mobile data coverage was excellent as well. Our whole experience in Morocco was delightful and everyone was so friendly and welcoming, and our time in Ouirgane at Riad Idar was the pinnacle.
