Gîte d'étape Tamaloute

I did a trip with friends from Marrakech to the desert of Merzouga and we stopped to stay over in Gîte d'Etape Nomade near Ouarzazate.  Our host Azedine gave us a warm welcome and showed us around in his accomodation.  The gîte has a great location and is very quiet. I loved its architecture and the bright colours.  Our room was very comfortable and clean.  Azedine was very helpful and invited us next morning for a luxury breakfast .  Thanks Azedine for your hospitality.  We'll sure come back one day and stay a bit longer.

Gite d'etape Tamaloutte" is a wonderful guesthouse with stunning views. The food and hospitality of the staff were exceptional. If you're looking for a fantastic holiday destination with breathtaking views, this is the place to be
We loved our two night stay here. We stayed in the rooms on the top floor and enjoyed relaxing on the patio with the most beautiful view. One of the family members guided us on a full day hike over the mountain and through tiny villages where we got to see daily life. We were even welcomed into a villager's home for lunch! This day was a highlight of our 2 week trip through Morocco.
Breakfasts and dinners here were delicious and cooked with the freshest ingredients. In the morning, we got to watch the women bake bread.
This is a great place to stay to get a glimpse into life in this corner of the world

What an incredible place. It’s very out of the way, but worth the find. The facilities are gorgeous and the family that runs it is spectacular. The beds are really comfortable with en-suite bathrooms. The food is fantastic and the hikes and the views are gorgeous

We felt right at home staying here.  The staff was extremely helpful and friendly and the food for dinner and breakfast was fantastic (and abundant).  The view from our room of the valley was exceptional.  The rooftop provided a perfect dark sky area for sky gazing at night.  Highly recommended.

We had an great two night stay as part of a tour. The food was excellent and there was great variety for breakfast and the evening meal. The room was small, and the bathroom tiny but the hospitality at the Gite, and the amazing views made up for this. There is a very scenic hike from the hotel around the village which takes 3-4 hours.

Experienced great hospitality and wonderful food at Gite d'Etape Tamaloute. The family who runs this Gite is very welcoming and friendly and the food is outstanding. Thank you for a great stay and incredible experience!

Our trip to this Gite was an unexpected surprise, visually, emotionally and for our tastebuds.

One moment we were staring at high mountains, and another moment we were on top of those mountains and looking down. As you walk down the narrow valleys, and rocky paths, many children come running to you, merely to interact with you— it’s adorable. On our way up to the mountains, goat herds walk alongside with us. On a warm day, the streams may be dried up and on the cooler days the water from the rain / mountains streams through the rocks. 

The food was purely organic. They don’t believe in freezers :). 

Bassou, one of the gentleman working there to me embodied the soul of that place. Bursting with life, relentlessly eager to serve and to make you happy. Husain, the owner was so kind and funny. And Souffiya hosted us at her place for tea and even took me for prayers at the mosque. 

May God bless these people. What an honor to have been there.

Staying with the Azabi family is always a pleasure. I've been coming here for three years now, and it is my favourite place to stay in the Atlas Mountains. The hotel is built as an authentic Adobe building, and with its atria, balconies, terrace and dining space it exudes the personality and character of the hosts. The Valley of the Roses is beautiful, and a quaint alternative to the busier touristic Dades Valley. I enjoy meeting travellers on their way through the Atlas, coming from all sorts of places. Rooms are always clean, and the food is generous and good.

We recently spent two nights at the Gite on a Peregrine Adventures tour; it was quite possibly the favourite part of an amazing adventure.  The reviews on the Gite summarize the ins and outs of this hotel.  It is truly an amazing place to experience the warmth and lifestyles of rural Morocco and its people.  The staff and family who own the Gite are warm, welcoming and have great senses of humour. The food was plenty and tasty and the rooms were cozy. It is true this is not a 5 or 4 star resort, but it is the uniqueness of what the owner family have to offer that makes this place so special.  So, if you are planning to go here, abandon your western expectations, get ready to immerse yourself in rural Moroccan lifestyle and make efforts to get to know this lovely family - they will make it worth your while!   Thank you Husain, staff and family - we will always remember our time with you with so much fondness.

Of additional note - we found while in Morocco that children often approached us asking for candy or pens.  We took pens to the gite intending to give them to the children in the village, but they suggested, and agreed, to take them to the local school for us. If you do like to give to the country you visit - this could be a good option for you.  Balls as well as school supplies, would also be needed for the children.
