This locally family run riad is a gem. It’s like staying at your aunt’s place. The room is massive and beautifully decorated. This is a place to rest, contemplate and chill. There is nothing much to do here other than sitting on the rooftop terrace and enjoy the view of the lake. At night you’ll see thousand of stars. You can go for a walk around the lake and stop by the cafe opposite on the main road for a cup of nous nous. The food here is amazing. We had breakfast and dinners here during our stay and the lamb tagine was super. The service is very friendly but not intrusive.

As we stayed in December, it was cold at night. The only heating is from the fireplace. So the room got a bit smokey at night.

We visited the Riad after the earthquake and we couldn’t have been happier. Our stay at Riad Diwane was absolutely delightful! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with the warmest welcome and made to feel right at home. The owner and his family went above and beyond to accommodate our needs, and the dinner and breakfast they prepared for us were simply amazing – a true culinary delight! What truly sets Riad Diwane apart is the genuine warmth and hospitality of the entire family. We felt like cherished guests throughout our stay, and we can't wait to return. Thank you for an unforgettable experience!

Nothing! It was excellent and we can truly recommend this stay! Even though the region was struck by an earthquake, the people there are warm, welcoming and very friendly.

Beautiful location overlooking the mountains and lake. Very quiet, particularly after two nights in Marrakesh. Well located for starting hikes to visit Berber Villages and a mountain bike tour. Pool is very nice for cooling down in the heat. Host helped us arrange a mountain bike tour around Ourigane with a guide in the afternoon when we arrived - always negotiate the price!

Limited food options nearby. So we had dinner on site for 100 MAD per person, the dinner was very nice but more expensive than Le Mouflon which we had eaten earlier in the day for 130 MAD in total. We were offered a big bottle of water with dinner, which they tried to charge us 20 MAD before we left (3 times the price of what you can buy in the shops). They didn't charge us for this in the end, but this left a bad last impression after a nice stay. There's no dedicated parking on site, but you can park along the main road at the bottom by the Riad Diwane sign rather than where Google maps takes you.

We loved the location and our host was so kind, thoughtful and helpful. He even arranged two fun and interesting guided walks for us. He was also an excellent chef! Considering the terrible damage caused by last year’s earthquake the Riad was in excellent condition and surely will improve even more in the coming year.

We liked everything.

We enjoyed the comfortable rooms and the very nice breakfast, and particularly the pool after a week trekking in the mountains! The host and his family were very nice. Dinner was very tasty too. We enjoyed the hike through Berber villages with the host.

Wifi was only available in one of the rooms. Just a small detail, which I didn't want to discuss, but which left a slight disappointment after a nice stay, check the extra charges like bottles of water (30 MAD for 2 when we paid 30 for 6 the day before).

Cute little place in the centre of town with a lovely swimming pool/terrace area overlooking the lake. Our host was a nice man always willing to help when asked. He arranged a great guide for us to visit a Berber village...really worth doing while there.

While the room was really cute, it wasn't very clean. The sheets hardly fit onto one of the beds so would wake up on the bare mattress. Shower was often barely warm enough and we found dinner to be quite expensive compared to elsewhere we've eaten in Morocco.

Wonderful host, great cook, outstanding location in the middle of mountains with views. Our room was spacious, cool, and comfortable - even though there was no air conditioning. Pool was refreshing after a wonderful arranged guided hike through the surrounding villages by our host. We enjoyed spending time interacting with the friendly family. Free parking on street. Heads up if you are a light sleeper, there is a mosque next door but as I used ear lugs it wasn't an issue.

nothing

Beautiful place to relax with spectacular view of the reservoir. The hosts were so accommodating and friendly, preparing a fantastic dinner for us and providing us with a hike and a mule ride for the children. An excellent place to stay!

It was all great, nothing negative

Radwane and his family are dedicated to ensuring your stay is pleasant and that you have everything you need. His mothers food is as good as you will find anywhere in Morocco. They are caring and attentive people, helping me to discover the local villages with a guide, and organising transport to and from Marrakech. The cosy living room with fireplace is a perfect spot to kick back with a book and forget you had to spend time in Marrakech in a continuous tourist trap.

Breakfast was lovely. Evening meal was also fantastic!!

This is really my fault for not checking - the rooms would benefit from either a fan or A/C but we had chosen to go during an extremely hot period and evidenced by a used fireplace in the room, I am sure it is cool enough in other months.
