Ecolodge la Palmeraie

Nous avons séjourné avec mes deux fils à l'ecolodge en août. Outre la chaleur, nous avons été accueillis très chaleureusement par Said, qui nous préparer une table et un petit déjeuner dès notre arrivée ! Notre séjour à été très agréable par le silence qui y règne. Tout le personnel est très gentil et attentionné. Nous avons passés un super séjour et nous vous remercions pour cette expérience.

Un endroit très éco responsable.Des plantations, de l eau à disposition filtrée, Des animaux, des paons. Un endroit très calme. Le personnel est aux petits. Une déconnexion totale

Magnifique environnement, les petites cases en terre cuite avec tout le confort, terrasse sur le haut avec vue sur la palmeraie Au milieu d’un petit jardin, on s’y sent bien Petit déjeuner local, préparer avec les fruits du jardin sur place Mais surtout gros point fort pour le personnel.

Very nice garden with hammocks, comfortable seating areas and pool - peacocks, goats, chickens, cats - fine breakfast buffet - simple, clean rooms - very friendly staff - great cooking class at home with a Berber family - easily accessible by public transport

We had a great time in the calm of the palm grove, despite small water problems, the staff found solutions quickly. The evening meal was excellent, the beef tagine super good. The welcome was super friendly and always with a smile. I recommend this accommodation, the rooms are simple but well decorated.

Bad experience, in every way, accommodation, breakfast... So poorly insulated (windows, doors with spaces that let air and noise in) that we had to sleep with reversible air conditioning, great for economy, 7 a.m. wake up because of the noise of passing staff laughing. The animals are crowded together. The owner is hateful, we made our one night stay the worst night I've had in 17 years in Morocco. Despite everything, I paid 238 euros to shorten my stay. Mr. Owner, I do not want your explanations, you are bad.

Photos which unfortunately do not reflect reality... The photos on the sites are really improved! In short, we had booked 4 nights at the end of December with family, and what a disappointment. I would like to point out that we know Morocco well and have stayed in various types of accommodation, riads, hotels, Airbnb, and we have never been disappointed, especially since the other accommodations were less expensive than this ecolodge, but hey, we said to ourselves “we’re going to have fun” at 115 euros per night. The Berber house that we had reserved did not live up to our expectations, poorly maintained furniture, 3 chairs for 4 people, and we barely dared to sit there for fear of falling. Very basic bathroom, no shelf or small piece of furniture to put things on, no toilet paper, and having hot water is the mission... We asked someone twice to very kind who came to give us hot water because it became freezing again very quickly, so after a while we no longer even dare go and disturb them every 2 minutes in the hope of being able to wash ourselves completely. Soap was provided but it must have been done by several families before us. We were cold, very cold at night, so in December the nights are very cold in Morocco, we know it, we're used to it, but there, the reversible air conditioning which heated us was not able to warm the room sufficiently, especially since the front door of the house has holes the size of a 1 euro coin, and holes of a centimeter at the bottom, which lets in the freezing air, in short, finally not very eco-friendly this ecolodge... I wouldn't go into more detail than that and yet I would have something to say, come on, one positive point, the presence of animals, goats and peacocks, nice with the children... The meal evening, twice as expensive as in any other restaurant in Ouarzazate, it was good, and the staff is super helpful and friendly. Breakfast was fine, except that everything was cold, the pancakes etc... After a night spent, and this disappointment, we preferred to leave, that's when we met the owner of the place, who made us pay the entire stay, i.e. the 4 nights, we expressed our disappointment to him but he insisted that we pay the full amount, he nevertheless made us a commercial gesture of 30%, but on a price which I repeat is exorbitant considering the service!! In short, we just wanted to go somewhere else, so we paid this gentleman, who had even tried to make us pay for an extra night, because we had wanted to arrive a day earlier, I had called him to ask him if it was possible he was supposed to call me back to confirm but I never got his call, I thought it was complete. In fact he told us that he had called me back and that we had to come a day earlier, that we had spoken about it on the phone, which is false. He has you

The place is very beautiful and peaceful. The Ecolodge offers several types of accommodation ranging from Berber tents (more basic for an authentic experience :-), to spacious suites. We particularly liked the African bungalow. The Ecolodge has been carefully designed and the rooms are furnished according to a certain cultural authenticity. The rooms have air conditioning and heating. The shower is nice. We appreciated the ecological concept of the place. The exteriors are also very pleasant with a beautiful swimming pool. The staff is very friendly, responsive and very helpful. In summary, a pearl, away from Ouarzazate, for travelers looking for authenticity. We just wish we could have stayed longer and hope to have the opportunity to come back.
