Farmstay vacation rentals in Fez-Meknès

I had the pleasure of staying with Mohammed in December, and it was an unforgettable experience. The farm's focus on ecological farming was truly inspiring, and I loved learning about the sustainable practices used in the day-to-day operations. Each day, I was treated to three delicious traditional dishes, each prepared with fresh, local ingredients that reflected the rich culinary heritage of the region. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, with the soothing sounds of typical Rif music filling the air, enhancing the experience. Even in the winter, the heating was excellent, keeping the space cozy and comfortable. The area felt completely safe, and I highly recommend this stay for anyone looking to immerse themselves in both nature and culture.

Najib was an outstanding host! The place was cozy, spotless, and located in a peaceful area, making for a truly relaxing stay. I highly recommend it!

Lahcen is an amazing host—super friendly, very responsive, and always quick to offer great suggestions. The house was lovely, spacious, and impeccably clean. My family and I truly enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again!

Very nice and friendly family, running this guest house

Our family of 5 were looking for an authentic Moroccan experience and we hit the jackpot! Mohammed and his mother-in-law, Farida, were incredibly kind, hospitable and welcoming. We spent 2 nights and would have loved to spend more. Farida showed us how to cook authentic, delicious Moroccan food and Mohamed guided us around the gorgeous countryside with his 2 friendly dogs, Oreo and Rafaello. Mohamed is a wealth of information on the area and Morocco in general and we thoroughly enjoyed chatting with him about a range of topics. I can’t recommend this Airbnb experience highly enough. If we return to Morocco next spring we will book in to stay in Mohamed’s parent’s house near the desert. Thank you for your warm welcome and friendship

Dar El Mandar is set on a hillside, in a natural setting that inspires serenity. The facilities in the garden and house are perfectly designed for everyone to enjoy at their own pace. The views are simply spectacular!! The hospitality and kindness of the team on site at the top, as well as the cuisine, excellent! Very practical and pleasant bathroom, as well as bedding. In short, a very good place that we keep treasured for next time!

Very clean accommodation, as described. The host (zouhir) was extremely responsive and available throughout the stay. I highly recommend it!

We had a great week at this large villa, very nice to stay in. Excellent communication with the host who was flexible, attentive and very responsive.

Nothing to report really great

We had a pleasant and relaxing stay in Houcine's house. The house is large, spacious, clean and functional, it matched the photos and description. The kids were able to take advantage of the swimming pool from morning to night. The little extra is a shaded terrace thanks to its fruit trees that delighted us. Houcine is very responsive and communicates smoothly, thank you to him for his kindness and patience. The place is very close to the airport which makes it extremely convenient at the end or start of stay. An address to keep for future stays

I liked the place so much, I booked it for an extra extended period. Everything was so peaceful and wonderful. Life is very slow in a very good way in the tiny village of Berwawa. Even though I stayed in the winter, I was plenty warm inside my bedroom with the heater on low. We had some nice rains while I was there and some very clear and sunny days. The rolling green hills looked just like a postcard. So picturesque with olive trees dotting the landscape. The locals continued to be super welcoming and I had no problems whatsoever. Note: The locals here don’t speak much of any English, but we had fun having deep conversations with the Google Translate app for instant spoken word translation. Power remained consistent as well as Maroc Telecom 4G connectivity. Note: Other carriers may have issues, but you’ll probably want Maroc Telecom anyhow since you’ll have the greatest coverage, country-wide. I came to Berwawa to get away from distractions and focus on working and writing music. It was so perfect there that I developed some great playing techniques far beyond my expectations! Mohammed was super accommodating and came to pick me up at short notice when my plans changed and I moved on to Fes. Now, sitting in my sweeping-panorama-view apartment inside the old Fes medina, I find myself missing the tranquility of Berwawa. I wish I could have stayed longer. Never once did I feel unsafe, and I had everything I needed from the local farming villagers or from the little store in-town. Even though I don’t have any specialized “farm lore” skills, I never felt inconvenienced by the simplicity of the accommodations and had no troubles with my daily routine whatsoever. I felt relieved to dial things back and simplify my life for a moment while I unwound in the serenity of it all. I just discovered that there’s taxi service which makes a round trip between Fes and Berwawa each day. The cost is 60MAD (about $6.50USD) per-seat, each way. A bargain since it take 2-3 hours each way. This alone makes Berwawa easily accessible for tourists wanting to get away from it all to enjoy the fresh air, clean water, and the wonderful produce from the bountiful Rif Mountain region. Here, there is no fear of getting ripped off by greedy touts looking to fleece you as you'll find in the tourist traps. This never occurred here. Berwawan's are an honest and honorable people in my opinion. Mohammed’s place has been an amazing experience. Truly the highlight of my entire Moroccan tour. Renting the entire ½ acre citrus, olive and vegetable farm with the large adobe farmhouse proved to be not only a great deal for the money, but an untapped area where there are zero tourists, and local hospitality abounds. I’ll never forget the friendships I made there since you’ll be treated as family with a genuineness of heart that is such a rarity in the world today. Thank you again, Mohammed. You and your family will always hold a dear place in my heart and I hope to come again to Berwawa sooner than later!

The farm is beautiful, the hosts are friendly and welcoming, and the meals they prepare are delicious. Best AirBnB experience I’ve had.

We thank Mohammed and his family for their hospitality. Mohammed and his father took the time to welcome us warmly, and the rooms were super clean. A real moment of relaxation. We had a wonderful walk with his father, who showed us the lands of Ketama thank you.

Mohamed's place was great and exactly as advertised. It is a working farm as the listing clearly states so be aware of the communal atmosphere that creates, if it is not your thing. Both Mohamed and Majid were unfailingly helpful and generous to a fault; giving rides down the hill into the village whenever requested, conducting brief tours of the village and surrounding countryside, taking guests to great coffee and food places and often refusing payment. I had a wonderful visit and would not hesitate to stay there again, or recommend it to fellow adventure travellers. Shukran guys!
