Beautiful property in the quiet town of Skoura. We had an upper level room with a terrace and incredible sunset views. Pool area was pleasant. Staff were all very sweet. Dinner and breakfast were delicious. Nice place to breakup the long drive from the desert to Marrakech.

Loved the feel of a true oasis in the desert, with beautiful surroundings. Food was beyond amazing! The only thing that was not perfect was the WiFi. Sketchy while we were there but that may have been the telecom company’s fault.

Really is an oasis!
This property exceeded all our expectations. Rooms were spacious, well decorated and super clean. The facility was excellent, including a beautiful pool area. Food was excellent. And best of all, the staff was supremely attentive. One of our travel companions wasn't feeling well and they brought a snack to his room- no extra charge. Just an example of the extra care provided. This is a peaceful and wonderful place to stay if you are in the Skoura/Ourazazete area.

Oasis in the desert
My husband and I had a lovely time at Kasbah Ait Ben Damiette. The staff was incredibly friendly and made us feel right at home. We enjoyed a wonderful dinner and a dip in the pool. we visited at the end of the busy season so the hotel was very quiet, it is set outside of Skoura and is not walking distance from the main part of town. As we drove away in the morning the entire staff came out to wave goodbye, which was a very sweet gesture.

The owners/hosts too excellent care of us!
This is a beautiful French Owned place. Even though they dint speak much english, they were just amazing with communicating everything with us. The dinner, the little little things were all amazing. I will go back in to this place if I were in the area. The couple who own the place are also the people who run the place, they both were so sweet and make us feel so special. Worth every penny and more!

very pleasant experience
The hotel is run by a French couple, who are very nice and friendly. The kasbah itself is magnificent and impressive, but being run by foreigners it lacks Moroccan authenticity a bit, so it maybe more of a chateau than kasbah :)

Amazing experience
We had a lovely time at the Kasbah. It's in a secluded area about 20 minutes from the closest city of Ouarzazate by the foot of the Atlas mountains. The Kasbah is delightful with a very unique architecture. What made our day extra special was the French couple, Yanic and Colette who made sure that my wife and I had a wonderful stay. The food, prepared with care by Colette, was delicious. This is a great place to go to just escape from the city and the tourists and just enjoy the vistas and the company of your spouse/partner, a good book and some warm tea. There isn't much to do in the area but the guided bike tour is recommended. I would stay a minimum of two nights to really appreciate this place. The pool is also nice but it was too cold for us to enjoy it. Nothing but positive things to say about this place.

Gourmet's Delight
A Kasbah style hotel on the edge of the fascinating and beautiful Skoura Oasis accessible on metalled road. Our room was spacious and comfortable. Outside there's a good size swimming pool with loungers for private relaxing in the sun or shade. Don't miss out on the excellent breakfasts and evening meals cooked by the French owners using local produce. The preserves are to die for! No hesitation about recommending Kasbah Ait Ben Damiette worth a detour!

Beautifully decorated rooms in a Kasbah built using traditional methods. In the Palmiera. Hosts could not do enough to make our stay as comfortable as they could.

Arnaque complète, nous nous sommes fait dépouiller par les propriétaires et sommes restés que 2 nuits au lieu de 3 nous avons payés plus de 200 euros au lieux de 123 euros pour 3 nuits. Ils ne prennent que les espèces et la patrone oblige à prendre les repas ( type cantine de self service de mauvaise qualité, ex: : poulet de baterie mal cuisiné à 16 euros un petit menu...) Ils se plaignent de "Hotel .com" comme quoi ils ne travail pas avec vous et que ce ne sont pas les bons prix du coût ils nous ont fait prendre des repas imprévus et dégueulas. tout pour partent en laissant les employés seuls, Le serveur et le jardinier sont gentils, mais la cuisinière totalement irresponsable et la plupart du temps absente, la femme de ménage antipathique et faignante qui replace les serviettes sale sur les propres et plus souvent avachie sur les sofas. Chambre très froide sans chauffage ni climatisation, 5 peignoirs pour enfants de 15 ans, tapis très glissants (nous sommes tombés plusieurs fois, pas de TV ... Salle d'eau très froide et peu pratique, un mini savon à moins 1 dirham pour 4 ! Piscine glaciale même avec une tenue sous marine spéciale hiver et très glissante aussi ! Et j'en passe ! En faite il ni a pas d'hôtes dans ce lieux qui n'est en fait qu'un musée très fermé et pour gogo ! C'est terrible de ce faire avoir par des français au Maroc ! Je n'ai jamais passée d'aussi mauvaise vacance, de plus de me retrouver sans argent puisse qu'ils m'ont pris toutes mes espèces l'angoisse.

Sehr schöne Kashba im Palmenhain Skoura
Colette und Yannik betreiben in Skoura ein wunderschönes Kashba Hotel. Die Aussicht auf das Atlasgebirge und die Wüste ist von der Dachterasse aus absolut spektakulär. Sehr leckeres Abendessen mit gegrilltem Fisch und verschiedenen Beilagen; Ziegenkäse zum Nachtisch; marokkanische und bretonische Küche. Das Frühstück wird im wunderschönen Palmengarten serviert. Die selbsgemachte Marmelade, die Omlettes und Crepes schmecken super lecker. Sehr zu empfehlen!

フランス人オーナーのおもてなしに大満足
ヤシの木に囲まれたスコウラというとてもステキな場所にあります。中世の小さいお城をイメージしたかのような、しっかりした建物。フランス人のオーナーたちが、すれ違うたびにニコニコと声をかけてくれます。モロッコ料理をフレンチにアレンジした夕食が絶品！

een heerlijk hotel, en het eten is ononvertroffen
Skoura is een prachige plek, een oase met de Atlas als achtergrond. Deze kasba is helemaal in stijl gebouwd, prachtige kamers, zwembad, veel oog voor de lokale economie en als top heerlijk Frans- Marokkaans eten, eindelijk wat anders dan kip!
