Staying at the Kasbah is like traveling back in time to when people were genuine and the world was not all about technology. We had the most magical stay, met some amazing people. From the very moment we arrived we felt at home, we were greeted and showed around by Hamid, who was so passionate and so friendly. It was the sort of stay that is hard to put into words. We were served some amazing food at dinner time, Hamid joined us for some riddles and chats. We watched the most amazing sunrise in the morning. The property itself is stunning, the most original place for a stay, but what really makes this place unforgettable is the people. In the morning we visited the nearby palmerie, if you plan to stay here definitely ask for a tour - we had the best time!

A lovely stay with exceptionally friendly and welcoming staff. As it is a proper old Kasbah you do need to be prepared for wonky stairs and no air conditioning, but if you choose to stay in such a building, that is what you expect. But then you're in a historic building in the middle of a proper Moroccan countryside down next to the beautiful palm grove. The swimming pool is beautiful as is the roof terrace and the food was all excellent.

Be prepared that there's no air con. But if you accept that, there's nothing to complain about.

We loved the experience of staying in an 18th century Mudbrick castle. The pool was an aesthetic bonus but the real excitement came from the overall experience. This place is totally worth venturing a little off the beaten track. Incredible views of the mountain range and the villiage from the terrace. The staff were exceptional with Hamid joining in on our card games etc.

Pool is a little cold in winter but would be incredible in spring, autumn and summer.

Fantastic stay at Hotel Kasbah Oulad Othmane! The place is magnificent, and ideal for a full immersion into local traditions. The views are 360 stunning, over the village, the valley, the palm trees, and there are great walk opportunities. The staff is very welcoming, will make you feel at home immediately, and prepare delicious dishes! We highly recommend stopping over, and would have loved to stay longer! Thank you.

Everything was great!

We would give 100 out of 10 if it was possible. The whole building makes incredible impression from the first second when you enter the main entrance. In each room we could spot the small details which created the kasbah’s style and vibe. We felt as if we got back in time. The rooms were clean and stylish with unbelievable view to the town, palm trees and mountain. Food delicious. For both dinner and breakfast we received much more than we expected. For breakfast apart from pancakes, jam & honey, bread and fruits there was also Tagine omelette with all the local spices (extremely tasty!). We do wish to come back with friend in the future. Our journey through Morocco would not be the same without visiting and staying in this unique place.

Everything was perfect !

The location is astonishing. The swimming pool is refreshing with a great temperature of the water even when outside is really hot. The property has been reformed in a traditional way which make it really special, but the bathrooms can be a bit uncomfortable and in summer time it can be really hot. The food is excellent ( best food I had in Morocco) and the owner is really kind and always there to help or give you information. I will definitely recommend to stay here and we will go back.

The location is amazing. You are in an old Kasbah, with a swimming pool which is very welcome, specially during hot days. The Kasbah itself is very authentic, so bear in mind the stairs are a bit uneven, the plumbing of the toilets may not be perfect... But all in all this has been one of the most mesmerising settings of our trip. The food is cooked by the ladies that work there (which are lovely) and is authentic moroccan (breakfast and lunch were very good)! P.s: you need to speak French to communicate with them because English is not spoken (not sure about the owner, because he was not there on the day). We stayed one night only, so we did not explore the Palmeraie that is across the road from the property, but it looked quite nice.

To my surprise, the room was extremely hot and so was the bed for some reason.. probably it was not kept aerated prior to our arrival (we were there mid September, which is still quite hot). There was a fan but it didn't help massively. Wifi was not available, so keep that in mind if you have no roaming data available

A beautifully restored kasbah at the road along Draa Valley. We stopped for one night on the way to the desert. The owner was waiting for us in the evening to show us around and communication was smooth despite us not understanding French ;) The room was charming, clean and comfortable. Bathroom was also very nice with hot water. We had dinner and breakfast and both were reasonably priced and delicious.

The kasbah is also right next door to a mosque, so be prepared for some noise at night

One of the best experiences we had in our 10-day trip across souther Morocco. If you want to feel like you've stepped through a portal and traveled back in time decades, this is your place. Abdel will take time to walk you around the Palm grove and oasis, one of the largest in Morocco, explaining you the issues they have with climate change, draught and the clever ideas they have to keep going. He might accompany you on a tour of the centuries old rammed-earth village (partially still inhabited but mostly in ruin) that sprung around his ancestors' Kasbah, which by itself is a work of art and one of the most authentic and impressive rammed-earth structures we saw in our trip. The mud 'castle' is covered throughout in ancient rugs, carpets and cushions, decorated simply but elegantly, probably how it was a hundred years ago. The photos don't do it justice, it has to be seen. The rooms are comfortable and clean and there is even a lovely swimming pool and a roof terrace with stunning views over the valley. If you're traveling between Marrakech/Ouarzazate to the Sahara make sure you stop here, at least one night, to add an unforgettable experience that will move you and touch you in the way that very few places can.

There is nothing I would suggest that needs massive improvement.

One word: amazing. Staying in the Kasbah was a truely authentic experience. The building is recently renovated, but kept true to its original heritage. The host was extremely friendly and hospitable. He made time to show us around and explain to us what life is like in the region. And last but not least: the food. Just wow.

Zero complaints! We would 100% recommend this hotel. We loved our stay!
