Reviews of Dar l'eau Vive

The place is super calm, can see the river form your room, it has all what you need. The staff were great especially Said and Walid. You can Kayak or ride a boat from the property. We mostly just hangout by the pool and did little hikes by the river, it was very peaceful.

Fantastic getaway from the chaotic and busy big city’s like Marrakech or Casablanca. We absolutely loved relaxing here for a couple of days. Staff is so nice! Wherever you look, the views are amazing.

The location and outlook were excellent, and the grounds were kept very well. I stayed in a pleasant small chalet and enjoyed use of the swimming pool. The restaurant was lovely, where I enjoyed both an evening meal and breakfast.

Some language difficulties and despite being told it could be obtained, no beer or wine was available to enjoy with my excellent evening meal.

Great location, really nice individual property with multiple different zones

Bathrooms are a little basic.

Room, terrace and views, garden, swimming pool, location, dinner. Nice Breakfast

Noise one of the night more than 12 noon with an event not communicated in advance, staff not speaking English and information not in English or Spanish just French so make it difficult communication

Great view of lake, comfortable chalet room.

The staff was very friendly. The place was beautiful. Room basic but clean. Beds comfortable. Dinner good.

dinner and breakfast was excelent

heating in common area

Staff are very welcoming with a special note to receptionist Miriam, waiters Yacin, Mustapha and Hacine who always go the extra mile to satisfy you. The lodge is located in a beautiful area off the Bine el Ouidane dam, is well decorated with local artefacts. Breakfasts and meals are copious.

The lodge could be better equipped for the winter as the main dining room can be drafty.

Beautiful location, views, calmness and really tasty breakfast

We were there in a winter time and in our room was really cold ( i have slept in a hoodie ) Our room was really basic, bathroom needs renovation and we had problems with warm water

The place was very good and peaceful, Yassin and the team were fantastic

Well done by the people living near by

Very kind staff, especially at the restaurant and the reception. Loved our family bungalow with an exceptionally beautiful view of the river below. The gardens are well kept and we did a really cute boat tour on the river that we booked last minute, the kids loved it too. The food at the restaurant is very good, and especially the breakfast was very very good. Loved everything. We will definitely be back.

We had a great time at this beautiful place. Location and facilities are perfect. The staff is amazing, especially Walid and Mustapha delivered great service to us. We also really enjoyed the food and we especially recommend the fresh smoothies made by Mustapha.

We had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful hotel for one night, and it was absolutely dreamy. The location is incredibly peaceful, and the view is breathtaking – the perfect place to relax and unwind. The entire team was exceptionally friendly, attentive, and welcoming. From the moment we arrived, we felt at home and completely at ease. The ambiance of the hotel is beautiful and inviting, exuding warmth and tranquility, making it the ideal place to linger. Both our dinner and breakfast were an absolute delight. The traditional dishes, prepared with finesse and fresh local ingredients, were incredibly delicious and offered a culinary experience we won't soon forget. We were genuinely sad to leave after just one night. We would have loved to stay longer and wholeheartedly recommend this hidden gem. A true oasis that everyone should experience!

The guesthouse has a fantastic view, and the food at the restaurant was absolutely delicious. The staff were excellent—friendly and attentive. However, there were some issues with communication regarding who is staying at the guesthouse and who is just visiting. After settling into my room, I headed to the pool for a swim. As soon as I got there, I was offered a menu and asked to order a drink because they assumed I was only there for a quick visit. It was awkward, and I felt pressured to order something just to avoid embarrassment. When I started swimming, another staff member gave me unfriendly looks, not realizing that I was a paying guest with access to the pool. While the overall experience was positive, the guesthouse should improve its system so the staff knows who is staying there and who isn’t to avoid these uncomfortable situations."

What I didn't like the most was the bed, which wasn't very comfortable, and the air conditioning that wasn’t working. Because of the heat, I had no choice but to open the window, which wasn’t ideal.
