So we booked via airbnb and understand that the raid has being under new management since June this year. From start to finish the hosting was amazing !! The villa is huge and immaculately decorated through out. The breakfasts and dinner were three course 5 star and no requests seemed to much. At our request we were provided with proseccu on arrival and had a very cheap pre arranged taxi to and from the airport. Mohammed chaperoned us at the markets and proved to be a very knowledgeable tour guide. The markets are only a 10 minute car journey away so you get to wake up to birds chirping but can be in the midst of the hustle and bustle of the city very quickly so location was for us was ideal. My group had such a good time that were already planning on going back early next year! Just to add that although we went during the winter season the weather was peaking at 28 degrees ?! :)

A group of 15 of us extended family stayed here for the week and really enjoyed it . Victor, Siham and Mohammed were so nice to us and we can’t praise their hospitality enough. Every question about the holiday was answered online very quickly prior to arrival. Also at the villa they were very accommodating to all our needs, they arranged the taxis and excursions. The breakfast was great and the lovely fresh orange juice is something we won’t forget. The villa is much bigger than what we expected from the pictures and the pool was really big compared to other riads we looked at prior to booking. Only thing I would say is that it was really deep so definitely need arm bands for children and we bought some pool rings as well. In terms of the privacy we were worried at first having other people at the villa; we’ve been on other villa holidays where theres not been any managers around and we just collected the keys but having victor, siham and mohammed there was no problem at all, they went about they’re own jobs, didn’t even look twice if we were laughing about something and it was such a help having them there. The location wasn’t bad as it was a quite neighbourhood so not too busy but at the same time wasn’t a very close walking distance to many of the main sites. However it didn’t really matter to us because it was about 10 mins taxi ride to Gueliz centre and maybe about 20 mins to the markets and taxis are cheap. It was close to local shops and food places so convenient in that sense. I would definitely recommend venturing out of marrakesh as well, we travelled to Casablanca for a day trip to visit the mosque and the beach and then to ouzoud falls another day. Honestly such amazing sights to visit and the journey was so easy; we got a mini bus and had a great time together. Overall very pleased with our stay here and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a group holiday in marrakesh.

Nestled on a quiet side street in walking distance to a number of restaurants. The staff were all very friendly and the hotel itself was clean with a great deal of charm and coziness. Breakfast was served each morning. Not the chain hotel experience at all.The only two things I would point out are, 1) be sure to get the map from the hotel before you go as it's extremely difficult to find otherwise (yes, it's on a street in town with homes, but took our cab driver quite a while to find the address as we didn't have the map), and, 2) while this goes for Morocco in general, it is very helpful to speak either French or Arabic when visiting as the owner and most of the staff do not speak much or any English.In summary: A very good choice for people who want a place with some personality.

We were a group of 9 celebrating a birthday. We had a fantastic stay at the Riad villa Bleue. Victor, who I correspond with before arrival, answered within minutes. Arranging for all our wishes from birthday cake to projector, nothing seemed impossible! During our stay he was the perfect host - organizing, advising even walked with us to the medina showing us the best pathway. He was amazing with his honest and professional approach.We enjoyed the quiet neighbourhood close to Majorelle, the authentic charm this riad owes, the tasty breakfast and the special service their knowledge and true engagement offered us. This combination is hard to find in Marrakesh! I truly and highly recommend a stay at Riad villa Bleue.
