Ermitage d'Akchour

A quiet mountain refuge inside a national park, with great options to hike, close enough to Chefchauen that you could visit while having to deal with all the rush of visitors and commerce. Great place to slow down and enjoy quiet times.

It was amazing. A very good place to escape the city. People are friendly. The place is very clean and unique as a concept.

Nice place to relax and connect with nature. Beautiful vista, fresh air and nice people all around!

It was a beautiful place set aside in the mountains. Very peaceful, and quiet. It was a great escape from everyday life. Very relaxing. I would go back again anytime. The rooms were very clean and the food at the restaurant was fantastic.

I was amazed by beauty and serenity of the surrounding nature. The place is cozy offering all the amenities I needed for my stay. The staff are friendly and accommodating. I particularly enjoyed waking up to the sounds of the flowing river and the birds singing. Many outdoors activities are available: long walk in the nature,hiking by the waterfalls, quad... Very safe area, I was walking by myself at night from the village to the lodge, local people are so nice and helpful. I highly recommend this place.

My family and I had such a wonderful stay here in July. It was truly a piece of paradise. I traveled with my two daughters (11 & 7) and another friend and her 3 kids. L'Ermitage is a very special place, amidst the hubbub of the very busy national park, it's a quiet, gorgeous retreat into nature. Words and even photos can't capture how beautiful it is. There's so much thought and consideration on how they made the entire grounds to feel so organic and one with nature. There are so many beautiful nooks and crannies and so much care and thought have gone into the sustaining beauty and wonderment of the grounds. I encourage anyone to go for a peaceful base and to enjoy all the riches of the park. A true sanctuary! It's good for families, couples, friends. They are expanding in the near future and I can't wait to go back. I only wish we had a couple more days to stay there.

Heaven on earth! Loved everything here, food, rooms, the private waterfall, really amazing. However, it would’ve been nice to know about parking beforehand (that we had to park off property and call the driver to get us to the hotel) and to bring mosquito spray.

Un vrai paradis avec service excepcionelle. Delicious food although dinner took a while--be prepared for a wait. Beautiful location, gorgeous grounds and cozy and thoughtfully appointed rooms, gardens, dining hall, etc.

L'Ermitage is a magical location. I got to know it thanks to social media and decided to visit it on my last trip to Morocco, where I was touring the north. I highly recommend anyone visiting Chefchaouen to pay a visit to this space. It is less than half an hour from this little town. It has nothing to do with the rest of the country and in my case in particular put the finishing touch to end my trip. If you go without a car it is easy to get very close to L'Ermitage and contact them to pick you up on the last part of the way to the complex. I would recommend spending at least 3 nights here. The chalets are not only beautiful on the outside, but also very comfortable inside and very spacious. Very comfortable mattress and pillows, BTW! The place is wonderful, it has beautiful gardens with lots of special places to disconnect and a river that crosses the entire property that is also full of magical and wonderful corners with hammocks hanging over the water, or loungers where you can lie down quietly to read a book listening to the sound of the river. There are also tables with chairs strategically placed in different parts of the river where you can also sit and read, have a drink or chat quietly. If you don't want to coincide with anyone and take your stay to relax and connect with nature, you are in the right place, but equally if you are accompanied, your experience will be memorable. I also find the space perfect as a location for retreats. In fact, during my stay I coincided with one of these groups. Families and children will also enjoy this place very much. Hiking activities are available and the setting is wonderful for a lot of nature activities. You can see natural bridges, waterfalls and wonderful scenery. I will definitely repeat on any other trip in the north of the country. I shared content on social networks about this place and many people asked me about it. They could not believe I was in Morocco, a country of contrasts where you can find wonders like these if you like to go off the beaten path. Highly recommended. My experience was wonderful. The food was phenomenal and I especially remember the breakfasts. I'm a fan of spending a long time having breakfast in slow mode in hotels, but here you do it with the perfect backdrop. Clearly I will be back. My recommendation is that you do not hesitate. Do yourself a favor and book! You will come back as good as new after spending a few days here.
