Lonely Planet review

A tiny B&B with seven odd little rooms: the charming older couple living in the house give it a homely, informal atmosphere. Mari tends a lush garden of potted succulents and cacti up on the roof terrace, and Rosko is forever 'DIYing' around the house.The rooms on the 1st floor are the biggest and most practical. Room 4 is particularly attractive with its maroon colour scheme, decorative fireplace and pictures by local artist Belaid Belhaoui. There's also a cosy sitting room, in traditional Moroccan style: it's stuffed with magazines, books, CDs and odd musical instruments. It makes a cosy corner to while away some of the colder winter days and the terrace with its beach views is a blast in summer. Rooms on the 2nd floor are quirky to say the least: Rosko has constructed wooden mezzanines for the sleeping areas with two double beds in each room, screened with a white curtain. It won't appeal to everyone and the ladder-like staircases are certainly not suitable for older folk. Families with kids on the other hand will love the novelty.
