When a place is as incredibly good as the Vanilla Sma, you doubt between sharing it with others or just keep it for yourself, but in this case I think all other tourists should know about this fanstastic place and Nelly (owner) really deserves a great opinion about her place. Perfectluy situated (just 5 min from Jemma el Fnaa) but... More

We had fabulous 10 days in Marrakech in this wonderful Riad. All staff members are very helpful and friendly. Excellent and huge breakfast to begin the day. Situated in a quiet road of the medina, our room was very clean and nicely decorated. I will be back most probably in july, august. Thank you again to Nelly, Redouane and Sultana.

We live here in Morocco and have traveled quite a bit throughout the country. I have to say, this is my favorite Riad in all of Morocco. Nelly and Redouan took great care of us. We can't wait to return! I'm telling all my friends that if they go to Marrakech, they have to stay here. It's a great little... More

Nellie and her team have created a comfortable, relaxing environment in this beautiful riad. My family recently stayed for three nights...exploring by day and returning to this sanctuary as suited our fancy. The decor is what I would call a modern day Moroccan style. Classy elements of Moroccan life that were not "cheesy" or overdone carefully existing alongside amenities that... More

Numbers don't lie - look at these ratings. Nelly and crew at Riad Vanilla sma will take care of just about anything for you. Nelly knows just about everything from how to dress, to where to go for amazing food, what areas to avoid, and her staff knows how to cook incredibly well. She took care of all of our... More

Well - it's my first time to write a review on Booking.com. I have to say it has been a great experience living in this nice, newly refurbished Riad. The location is very central - just 3 minutes walk to Jemaa El fna. The room is nice and clean. Everything is very calming in the Riad. What's more, people in... More

It's been a wonderful 4-day stay at the Riad. We couldn't have hoped for more. Nelly the owner is so nice. She accommodated all our needs in all possible ways (finding us hammam masseuse at last minute, booking us taxis, finding us another Riad when our travel plan changed suddenly and nearly ended up on the street, etc.) She speaks...

I've never written here before but have to recomend this place, it's brilliant. It's all about Nelly and her staff who make an often bewildering city a place you can relax and enjoy. Nelly sits you dwn and explains the city and tells you the cool places to go, something you would think most riads would do but none that... More
