“Beautiful house and fabulous food”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 24, 2013

Fantastic holiday at a great and extremely welcoming location. The house is full of beautiful interiors with hand picked paintings, books and objects. Hicham and his staff are brilliant, and nothing is too much trouble - from mint tea on the terrace to booking trips out to the coast or the mountains.

A January trip meant that the daily-laid wood burning fires were welcome in the evenings, and the house is around 15 minutes drive from the centre of Marrakech so easy to hop in for a look around the souks and gardens. It felt more like staying at a friend's house than a hotel, with two friendly dogs for company by the pool.

But by far the most memorable thing about Casa Taos was the food - some of the tastiest and most varied Moroccan, French, Lebanese, Italian food we've ever eaten, freshly cooked and served in banquet-sized portions every evening in the cosy restaurant. If you like food, this is definitely the place for you!

“Perfect getaway”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 9, 2013

A true oasis of understated luxury, the definition of superior Moroccan hospitality, not to mention the amazing food, which is on a par with the best restaurants in Marrakech. We had a wonderful New Year at Casa Taos, our every need was taken care of by the doting staff and Hicham really does deserve all the praise he receives on here. Set 20 minutes away from the chaos of Marrakech, its the ideal base to dip in and out from. Stay in the Sophia Suite if you get the chance, literally one of the best rooms I've ever stayed in

“A slice of the divine”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 8, 2012

What a stunning place. I've just returned from a short break at Casa Taos and it was quite simply amazing.  I was travelling alone and they really made me feel like royalty, nothing was too much trouble. 

As you walk in you see that the pool looks just as lovely  as it does in the photos. It is nestled amongst orange and mandarin trees and I spent most days here reading my book in the sun loungers or sleeping in the hammocks. It was too cold to go swimming but in Dec I wasn't really expecting to.

I woke  up every morning with a view of the beautiful snow topped atlas mountains. Inside the room was extremely clean and the decor very well done. My favourite part was the open fire place -  which was lit every night as December evenings in Marrakech are very chilly. They built the fire for you so all you had to do was light it after dinner.

My overall highlight has to be the food. Every meal was a mini feast and I genuinely I don't think I've ever had such lovely homemade and homegrown tucker - four courses every night. Melt in the mouth beef, succulent chicken and lemon and yummy meatball tagines. I was also pleasantly surprised with the wine, previously  id had some dodgy local Moroccan  wine but as with all things at Casa Taos it was impeccable. 

The hotel used to be the owners family holiday home and even now you get a real sense of this. To me it felt like a real home from home. I've been to Marrakech twice before and after staying at Casa Taos I'll never go back to staying in the medina. 

This place is a little slice a of the divine

“A little piece of heaven”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 10, 2012

Casa Taos is a quirky, creative and truly special place to stay. I can say this confidently as I have been lucky enough to stay in great places in many beautiful locations all over the world. The warmth and kindness that exudes from Hicham and his staff made our stay here truly memorable. Every request satisfied, from children's meals to help searching the city for a pair of bellows! Nothing is too much trouble here. My husband, 8 year old twin boys and I loved this place, our boys running freely and safely in the beautiful garden, us lazing on hammocks and sun beds by the beautiful pool. An authentic place to stay with lovingly prepared delicious food using fresh ingredients from the garden and served so wonderfully by Mohammed, the best tea pourer in Morocco. The homemade lemonade, chocolate mousse, creme caramel and Moroccan appetisers were particularly tasty. Far enough away from the city to provide a quiet and peaceful oasis but close enough for easy access to Marrakech and all it has to offer. I recommend Casa Taos unreservedly. Thank you to you all (and a special hello to Echo and Toffee) and we hope to see you again.
