Set in a humble village in ourika valley, chez yahia is a perfect place to relax and enjoy the nature!

Air condition didnt work, so it was very hot in the room. Also there was no night silence,the other guests were sitting on the room, talking loud, so it was difficult to sleep.

I very recommend to go there. Everything good. Low prize, nice people, clean rooms, good localisation

The house has a beautiful terrace with a view of the mountains. The room is very comfortable and everything was clean. They have two very friendly dogs.

We had a lovely stay chez Yahia! The location couldn’t be better, the view is awesome and the hosts are really kind and hard working that you have a great stay with them. I can really recommend this place to anyone who is looking for wonderful hikes and calmness. Thank you very much Juliette:)

Our charming hostess Juliette welcomed us into her home and looked after us so well. We had a lovely time and even shared some funny stories. Breakfast was magnificent. The views are spectacular and the house is very interesting. The rural, quiet location was ideal for us. Thank you so much.

Love everything. The place has an amazing view and it’s definitely worth the visit. View in the morning is spectacular.

Nothing! Everything was amazing!

Yahia and Juliette are incredibly welcoming, they really made us feel home and made sure that we had everything and every information that we needed!

We were in the house rather than an apartment, so not much private space, which we didn't mind. But sharing the space with big dogs made it not the cleanest space.

The location for walking was fantastic, wonderful walks up into the Berber villages. Good views. More like a youth hostel, able to prepare your own food, socialising with other residents. Hosts are full of energy, enthusiasm and local knowledge which they are happy to share.

Although we didn't like the following minor things, we'd still recommend booking at Chez Yahia: The apartment is a 10-minute walk from the road/car park and luggage must be carried "on the shoulders" (hard to roll it). Also, although it is in a safe area, there are no keys to lock the apartment. The apartment is overall clean but the bathroom could use a toilet brush (and more toilet paper). Juliette has beautiful dogs but they can be a bit intimidating at times. They are also around and insisting when you eat, which can be a bit uncomfortable. Breakfast was all right but we didn't like the coffee (american, watery style).

The view from the apartment is breathtaking and it's a great place to hike. Juliette gave us some nice local tips. We highly recommend getting dinner from Juliette: she cooked delicious Moroccan food (different from what you find at restaurants) that tasted like home; it was also a very generous quantity for the price. Juliette was super kind to let us wash our clothes in the washing machine.

The pictures of the property do not do it justice. It is one of the most beautiful views I’ve seen in Morocco. You can see the rolling hills and the mountains covered in snow in the background.

Amazing views Unique house Perfect host Lovely food

Our short stay was just wonderfull. Everything was perfect. From the warm welcomiong to the onderful views of the mountains from our appartment. You have to walk a little bit to reach the house, biut Omar helped us with our luggage and it means that the environement was very quiet. We will be back.

Juliette and Yahia are the best hosts you can imagine. They are very friendly, helpful and know some secret spots to visit. Juliette's cooking is so good that it can literary turn a vegetarian into a normal person (which happened to my girlfriend!) even the traditional welcome tea had something special about it.

Nothing, everything was great

Beautiful home, fantastic hospitality, amazing food cooked by Juliette, and spectacular location.

Nothing.

We only stayed one night at Yahia and Juliette’s. Our only regret, not to have stayed longer. The view from our room and from the entire house was just stunning. We also just felt at home. The welcome was so kind and warm and yes, do try the food prepared by Juliette! The best we had in Morocco. Thanks again for your hospitality. Authentic, kind and real. A true gem.

It was all good!

Excellent location in the mountains and near the river. Juliette showed us an amazing hike passing mountain villages. She went out of her way to make our stay as pleasant as possible. She's an amazing chef so if there is an option to make use of breakfast and dinner - take it!! Love the rooftop terrace as well!

Juliette was a very warm and welcoming host, and cooked absolutely delicious food for us. The house is in a very beautiful location in the valley, it was such a pleasure to sit on the roof for dinner in the evening.

It was a great stay in Ourika with Juliette and her dogs! Everyday we were looking forwards to have the dinner prepared by her. We enjoyed the great views from the balcony and the sun from the rooftop!

That I had to leave honestly.

I liked the view, it was just splendid, you open the curtains and its all mountains for as wide as the eye can see, the silence and calmness of the place is immaculate too, best spot to recharge and cleanse your energy. Omar was very helpful, and the host was nice and showed us everything we needed to know from getting there to where to go.

It's a different concept. The feeling to be hosted by friends more than in a hosting business.
