During my first visit in 2004, I fell in love with this city and the kindness of Morrocan people, but also the beauty of the architecture, the skill of local craftmen. With my family we decided to buy this traditonal family house in which we feel good. After the buzz of the city, we appreciate even more the calm and serenity inside. I deliberately chose this house a short distance from the main square as I wanted a genuine Morrocan neighbourhood. It is very close to the Saadian Tombs therefore not isolated and within walking distance to all the major sites in the medina.During the winter months, the first thing I do every morning is to climb to the upper roof terrace. There I admire the snow capped Atlas mountains under a bright blue sky. In the summer it is again on the terrace that I spend some time, watching the starry nights.

The best things about staying at Dar Zinnia are first of all the warm welcome from Asmaà and Ibrahim with their great kindness and generosity. Then Asmaà's delicious cooking, the proximity of the souks, palaces to visit, the golf clubs nearby, the choice of various spas very near to the house, the swimming pool in the nearby hotel. My friends and guests hae often remarked that it feels good to stay at Dar Zinnia, we eat extremely well and when we leave we are in great shape.
