Grotte Thami

Thami and his wife were wonderful hosts. Because the grotte is a bit difficult to find, Thami met us in town in his car and led us to the parking area near the grotte. We were arriving at dinner time, so Thami offered to provide dinner for us so we didn't have to find a restaurant. His wife and her friend cooked and served us a delicious Moroccan dinner--in their own grotte home. Afterwards he led us to the grotte apartment which easily slept 3 couples. The grotte is totally unique, and it's full of interesting antiques which adds to the atmosphere. It's located in an ancient city carved into a hillside and we had a wonderful time exploring the town on foot.

This is a cavern carved out of rock and our visit was in winter time, so despite the small heaters, it remained rather cold and damp feeling. There were plenty of extra warm blankets to keep us warm in bed, though.

Kind owner Very good food prepared by our host wife Unconventional lodging, really is a cave

Bathroom + Toilets

We spent 2 nights at Grotte Thami. The whole cave house was given to 3 of us. The upper floor has 4 beds and the lower floor has 1 bedroom and a big living area. Bathroom and toilet are located on the lower floor. The entire cave is decorated with Moroccan paraphernalia. Mr Thami was a very good host. He attended to our every request and showed us to some places we wanted to visit. Staying in the cave house was a very unique experience. We loved that it's off the beaten track and we didn't see other tourists.

The bathroom and toilet is small. No clothing hanging hooks or racks.

The cute village with nice people. Helpful and attentive host. Atypical experience. Breakfast. From the outside the cave looks like a modest house and then when you go in, you discover the cave.

Nothing.

I had never slept in a cave before. It was a great experience. Very cosy, quiet, clean. Even on a hot day, the grotte was cool and comfortable. Thami and his wife Habiba were wonderful hosts. Highly recommend.

It was all good.

If I could, I would rate this place, Thami and Habiba (the hosts) 20 stars out of 10. We have been well received all through Morroco, but our stay here was more than perfect. Thami is the perfect gentleman, and his wife made us the best food we ever had. Thank you both for your kindness!

This cave accommodation was beautifully decorated and surprisingly comfy! Thami has an artistic eye and it definitely shows when entering the property. The hospitality from Thami and his wife was amazing and they really made us feel welcomed into the home. The cooking was plentiful and tasty, every meal we were being spoiled. This is a real hidden gem of Morocco and a great authentic experience. Thanks Thami!!
