Dar Zahia
"A wonderful Berber house of tranquillity"
Stay at Dar Zahia
In the heart of the Medina nestled in the feverish lanes of the city, Dar Zahia, quiet and silent, welcomes guests into its cool lush garden. An authentic Amazigh Berber styled Riad in Taroudant, Dar Zahia is built of clay and been carefully restored to respect the traditions of the houses in Southern Morocco. Dar Zahia offers guests a deeply relaxing stay in Taroudant.
In keeping with the vocal and community atmosphere of Morocco, Dar Zahia has just 4 rooms but large communal areas both intimate and all welcoming. The 2 ground floor rooms have ensuite showers with shared w.c and the 1st floor rooms share a bathroom. A house of tranquility, Dar Zahia is a wonderful property for a romantic holiday in Morocco or as a larger group stay in Taroudant to bring people closer.
The hotter summer months permit sleeping in the tented sofa enclosures on each floor, an exciting experience for all and a fantastic idea for a children’s holiday in Morocco. The staff at Dar Zahia are wonderfully welcoming and offer a very well balanced personal service.
Located in the centre of Taroudant Medina in the livelyins and warmest part of the city a short walk to Derb Chrif, Forq I ahbab and both the vibrant Arab and Berber souks.
