Stay at Riad Laksiba
Five En-suite Guest Rooms
Riad Laksiba is the product of an amazing restoration. The English owner has subtly blended the authentic ‘Old Palace’ style with simple modern design to transform this traditional riad to the beautiful guesthouse that stands today.
Indeed, Riad Laksiba pays careful attention to its Moroccan history: the beautiful hand-carved arches and columns in sable-de-la-mer and tadelakt are influenced by the Kasbah Mosque and the Saadian Tombs and solid Cedarwood doors and windows with hand carved Berber motifs. Expect terracotta, cedar wood and traditional tadelakt plaster throughout.
The five en-suite bedrooms are finished with polished cream plaster walls, terracotta floors, and ethnic rugs and all enjoy the modern comfort of Air-conditioning and an en-suite wet-room, good pressure, showers. All beds have been hand carved specifically for Riad Laksiba, twin beds in each room – pushed together to make doubles when required, with firm mattresses and hand weaved stripey covers in cream, beige and chocolate.
Quiet salon areas outside four of the five en-suite bedrooms to give guests quite individual space to enjoy sumptuous breakfasts, mint tea and discuss the world. Guests can also keep in touch through the free WiFi or relax and read one of the many books and novels scattered around the riad.
The Splash Pool on the ground floor courtyard offers a respite from the heat of the day and acts as a natural acclimatisation to the common areas.
The south facing roof terrace has sun lounger’s and also an essential, summertime, cold water shower and great “chill out” furnishings for shisha-pipe star gazing in the evenings. During the winter the terrace boasts excellent views of the Mighty snow-capped Atlas Mountains.
Base prices are in £Sterling.: Euro, USD and Moroccan dirham rates will vary by exchange rate.
