My friend Claire and I stayed at Dar Mo'da for 5 days in October 2023. It was our first time to Marrakesh and we chose the riad based on reviews online. From the first moment we arrived, it didn't disappoint! Mounaim and his team were exemplary - they couldn't have been more welcoming, helpful or made us feel more special throughout our stay! Although you're in the heart of the medina, the riad is quiet and relaxing and tastefully furnished throughout in the local style. We arranged a pick up from the airport vianthe riad, and were escorted on foot to the property when the taxi couldn't go any further. We were met by Mounaim, a most charming and helpful man, and welcomed with mint tea and local delicacies. We had a beautiful room on the top floor. We ate a delicious breakfast on the top terrace cooked to our request each morning - cereal, yoghurt, pastries, juice, coffee and omelettes. Mounaim went above and beyond to ensure we made the most of our stay. He provided us with a map, water and recommendations on where to go (not just the usual tourist spots) and where to eat. He also gave us his number in case we became lost in the medina. He recommended restaurants each evening, made the reservations and arranged for us to be guided there and back. He is an absolute credit to the riad! On the Saturday night, we were invited to have drinks with the Australian owner, David and his friend Riccardo, who were visiting from Milan. David in particular was very welcoming and hospitable - a lovely man who has some fascinating stories to share. Also we were two women alone, we never felt unsafe or vulnerable whilst walking everywhere in the city, and it was a great opportunity to practise our french. On the last night we were provided with drinks and nibbles in our room and a 'cadeau' of spices from the markets. Thank you to Mounaim and team, to David and Riccardo for the amazing time we had in Marrakesh. I would recommend Dar Mo'da every time. A truly memorable trip and we will return!
