Comments

Magnifique maison, espaces de vie et de loisirs bien séparés , beau jardin
Experience of one week holiday with our family (4 children and spouses, 4 grandchildren (between 6m-2y)
Magnificent property with spacious garden and large, well-located pool in perfect harmony with garden.
Quiet area and easy route to Essaouira and airport.
Very beautiful, tastefully decorated living areas and rooms with plenty of light and ventilation. Classy accessories
Very helpful and friendly staff; cook is very adept at preparing typical Moroccan dishes.
Conclusion: high risk of returning to Dar Maha!!!!
One week is a short time :)
Dar Maha est une maison de vacances idéale pour une semaine entre amis et avec enfants. Elle est confortable, très agréable et permet à chacun de conserver son intimité. Elle est décorée avec beaucoup de goût, dans le style marocain, les matériaux sont de qualité. Le jardin est spacieux, bien agencé, avec ses espaces piscines et pétanque et très bien entretenu.
Notre cuisinière Oumlaide a largement contribué à faire de cette semaine une véritable réussite, ses plats étaient chaque jour délicieux et nous ont permis de découvrir la véritable cuisine familiale marocaine. Chaque plat était préparé avec soin et toujours très bien présenté. Imed, le gardien de Dar Maha s’assurait avec discrétion que nous ne manquions de rien et était toujours disponible pour résoudre une situation ou une bonne idée pour distraire les enfants. Sara, en charge des enfants a également était d’une grande gentillesse et su faire preuve de patience avec les enfants.
En bref, nous avons passé une excellente semaine à Essaouira, la localisation de la maison est finalement idéale, car protégée des vents d’Essouira et proche des commerces et de la ville.

Bon service général de Villanovo ! Un peu plus de réactivité aurait été apprécié en préparation du séjour :
- envoyer rapidement la liste des activités et services proposés. Il serait bien de soigner la liste envoyée car bien que ce soit une bonne Base, le ton employé et la rédaction mériteraient quelques amélioration pour donner la meilleure impression possible de Villanovo.
L’emplacement de la maison est très bien, cependant il faut prévenir en amont le client que la localisation et les alentours peuvent surprendre un peu mais que au regard des conditions météo et des activités/spots sympa, le km 8 est un endroit idéal en cette saison!
Seul petit bémol, le fonctionnement de certaines douches et l’écoulement des baignoires.
Il manque peut-être un petit salon extérieur suffisamment grand pour prendre l’apéritif en fin de journée et un bon système son.
Le jardin, la taille de la maison et la déco.

Très bon service de Villanovo et qualité des prestations garanties

le service d’Oumlaid (intendante)et Aïcha (cuisinière) a été vraiment de très bonne qualité ainsi que la présence du gardien. Tous ont été aux petits soins et cela a beaucoup contribué à la réussite de notre séjour.
Aucun point négatif
Accueil par Oumled, configuration des pièces, environnement et jardin au calme , bâtiment, matériaux,...
A peine 10 min d Essaouira en voiture.
