I first stayed at the property in 2017. My experience there was wonderful and so I returned 7 years later. Isham was still there and took great care of me and my friend. He walked with us when we needed to find our destination without getting lost. It’s a beautiful riad with authentic furnishings and feels like a genuine step back in time with modern service.

The staff became like family. The property is a lovely combination of traditional and contemporary Moroccan design. The rooms were comfortable, and the food delicious. Definitely will be making this our place to go when in Marrakech.

Highly professional
There is no doubt that Dar Darma is an excellent accommodation choice in the Medina. The staff are fabulous. As we had chosen this Riad for its pool we were very disappointed that it was being renovated. Although we were offered free cancellation, unfortunately it was too late to organise similar accommodation, and so were somewhat surprised that no reduction to reflect the non availability of this facility was offered. Having said that, it is highly recommended.

We stayed in the Red Apartment. This riad is one of the most unique and authentic places in Morocco. Tasteful decor. Makes one feel at home really. Impeccable service and staff. The riad is like a maze which makes it so very interesting. Also easy walk to the souk. There are stairs to climb so be aware.

The property was beautiful and the people very friendly. We had difficulties getting back to the Riad at tines. I wish it was better marked or better explanation of location.

Luxury Boutique Riad
Dar Darma is a relaxing and magical oasis in the midst of the crazy sights and activity of the city. The interiors are opulent and beautiful, and each boutique room is decorated individually. Our room was spacious, clean, quiet and comfortable. The staff is welcoming and gracious and treated us like family. We enjoyed a lovely breakfast each morning on the private terrace with gardens. I would stay here again and highly recommend it. WiFi is available in the common area.
