Dar Kantzaro

Marrakesh

A lovely 6 bedroom villa hotel (with pool)located in the outskirts (about 10km) of Marrakech, secluded and tastefully decorated.  

The jewels of this lovely property are the staff.  Nagila the accomplished chef (apologies if the name is spelt wrong), Hasson the concierge, the young lady cleaner and the groundsman. 

Wow, the meals Nagila cooked were delicious.  Unfortunately we were booked for 7 days but had to cut short our stay (due to the CV-19 lockdown). But the meals were wonderful and a great introduction to Morrocan cuisine. 

Hassan was a very helpful and friendly concierge.

If I return to Marrakech I would certainly return to Dar Kantzaro. 

Thanks to all in Dar Kantzaro.

Very lovely

We stayed in the house for 3 days, it was very quiet and comfortable, a good choice, we bathed in the pool and the staff was very attentive, maybe the only thing is that you have to take a taxi to get to the center, but it's a 20-minute drive.

A wonderful stay.

My wife and I stayed here for just over a week earlier this year and loved it. The staff were absolutely superb and nothing was too much trouble for them.

This place is a little bit outside of Marrakech, but they will organise pickup from the airport (€20, great value) which I would argue is necessary as it’s quite hidden away, you would really struggle to find it without going there previously.

The location is very very quiet, and super relaxing. For most of our stay we were there alone, which added to the experience as it felt really exclusive.

Food is EXCELLENT, I can’t stress this enough.. we ate out in Marrakech a couple of nights but it was not a patch on the wonderful tagines served up at Dar Kantzaro.

As an additional bonus, the grounds are lovely.. and we spotted a wild tortoise one day which was really fun :)


Relaxing and Tranquil

Far from the hustle and bustle, 20 minutes from the city of Marrakech an oasis of peace and quiet among the olive trees reigns in this house of Moroccan architectural character. Very pleasant staff, perfect service, spacious room, garden, terrace and well-maintained pool.

A Villa in the Country

It took us more than an hour to find the Riyadh due to the lack of signage and the inability to reach it by phone (line is still busy). Once on site we unfortunately found several flaws (lack of a safe in one of the rooms, bathtub clogged at our arrival, handful of windows left in hand when we opened, stay napkin never replaced despite many tasks).

Beautiful frame but many flaws

We come back every year to recharge ourselves in this garden of Eden, the setting is resting, luxuriating in a superb carefully maintained vegetation, with a few turtles coming to visit us, a breathtaking swimming pool, a calm that allows you to refocus on yourself. Emilie, the mistress of the place lets you take your marks but is attentive to everything, and then to crown everything, you are taken care of by Hassan, who, while discreetly takes care of all the hassles so that your rest is maximal and Najia who listens to you to the dish you desire (forget the diet, it's all divinely delicious) and warm in an absolute atmosphere..... So let's all be quietly resting in the world, by the direction of the oap!!!

In Paradise

He's a very comfortable room, very knowledgeable and friendly staff, very convenient for golfers like us, Hassan takes care of everything, fairy green reservations and taxis, Naija's couscous is a killing...

The Gulf Week

A great place for a restful break.  Wonderful welcome from the staff, excellent, very clean rooms,  very good simple food made in the kitchen and delightful gardens – as well as a hammam on site. 30 minute drive from the medina and the staff will organise a knowledgeable local taxi driver.

Hidden Gem

Just returned from a wonderful 5 day holiday at the Dar Kantzaro, and we were not disappointed in any way - the place really lives up to its (deserved) great reviews.
We were fortunate to be the only guests during our stay, so we benefitted even more fro the amazing service provided by Hassan and his team.
Location is very quiet and secluded (lots of cab drivers do not know where it is!) and well away from the rush of Marrakech, around a 25 minute taxi ride, which is not too expensive.
In December the days are not so warm, yet we still managed a daily 25 degrees plus in the brilliant sunshine, with never a cloud in sight. Nights go down to around 15 degrees.
Our room (suite) was amazingly spacious, with a comfortable lounge, large bathroom, bedroom and huge outside terrace, overlooking the pool and gardens. All major amenities are provided, but probably its best to lie in a bit in the mornings, as the hot water does not come on early! Aircon/heating units are efficient and the multi channel satellite tv works well (although only three English channels, all news, but you don't come the the Dar Kantzaro to watch tv!)
Food is home cooked and beautifully fresh - you just tell Hassan when you would like to eat, and the food appears! Traditional Morroccan cooking with a set menu, tasty and filling.
To conclude, one of the very best places to relax and holiday in the world. 5 Stars!

The ultimate place to relax!

We stayed here for 5 nights from Thursday to Tuesday. It was our first time to Marrakech and we just wanted to be able to relax whilst also doing a bit of sightseeing.

I have to say for relaxing this was amazing the place only has a few rooms (5 I believe) and we were lucky enough to have the whole place to ourselves.

The hotel has character and although had a bit of wear and tear the location and staff more than made up for it.

Hassan the hotel manager was very helpful without being in your face whenever we wanted something he was instantly there.

If I had to highlight any negatives they would be cost of getting to town (about 350 MAD), and limited (although adequate) food. Whenever we travel we do like to eat local food only and with Tagine every night we certain did. Breakfast was basic and could have benefitted from fresh fruit. Lunch was spot on which was a selection of salad/veg, bread and grilled meats. 

The grounds were great and very relaxing.

I would say if booking with a 3rd party its probably best to book transfer directly with hotel as our one was not and he couldn’t find the place so I had to direct him. The couple that left the day we arrived had same problem but they drove around for 2hrs. 

All in all a great relaxing break but be aware foods limited and travel to town is not great but this place is for relaxation. Can’t wait to return.
