Arima Surf House

such a friendly host we had a good stay, it was calm, clean and people were so nice to us, we left with so many good memories

El rollo que se creó y el desayuno y los dueños lo majos que eran.

Que estaba super alejado y el tema de la limpieza del baño.

Las instalaciones un 10, el personal y los voluntarios una maravilla. No ha podido ser mejor!!!!

Das Zimmer war sehr gross und schön eingerichtet. Es war sauber und wir hatten sogar ein eigenes Badezimmer. Es gibt eine Terrasse und eine Dachterrasse. Das Personal des Arima Surfhouse könnte nicht besser/cooler sein. Wir hatten eine sooo tolle Zeit. Joan und Salah waren so lieb, haben uns eingeladen mit ihnen den Markt zu besuchen, Lagerfeuer am Strand zu machen oder auch einen Film zu schauen im Hostel. Sie gaben uns Empfehlungen und Tipps für die Gegend und Umgebung. So herzliche Menschen!! Jeden Tag gab es Fruchtsalat, Omelette, Brot, Crêpes oder Pancakes zum Frühstück (mit Nutella oder Sergio ;) Auch marrokanischen Tee und Kaffee gab es. Von der Terrasse kann man den Sonnenuntergang beobachten. Es gibt Yogamatten zur freien Verfügung. Auch die Küche ist sauber und konnte immer genutzt werden.

Einzig die Lage war etwas weit vom Strand entfernt, jedoch war es unser Fehler. Wir hätten das auch beim Buchen des Hostels selber sehen können. Ausserdem hat das Team die Lage wett gemacht. Wir haben uns wohl gefühlt.

Tout était parfait. La chambre spacieuse et accueillante, literie confortable. Le petit déjeuner varié et très bon. L’accueil très agréable. Rien à dire à part que je n’avais plus envie de partir. Merci pour cette chouette expérience, je reviendrai! Si tu veux voyager à Tamraght, viens ici :)

Super nice and cozy room. The rooftop is amazing. Lucy as volunteer was so lovely and Rahma and Xavier are amazing hosts.

Everything was good.

La amabilidad de Rahma, Lucy y Xabi. Los buenos desayunos y cenas en la terraza. La tranquilidad del lugar y lo agusto que hemos estado. Eskerrik asko eta beste bat arte!

Super endroit pour faire des rencontres, ambiance familiale , merci aux propriétaires qui étaient top et super petit dej , les dîners et les cours de surf ! Top!!

Rien , uniquement 1 sdb pour 6 personnes , mais on arrive à s’arranger

Wspaniała atmosfera.

Personál nám urobil pobyt v hoteli oveľa príjemnejším. Spoznali sme super ľudí. Naša izba číslo 1 bola super. Všetko bolo čisté. Raňajky boli spoločné super aj káva aj čaj ovocie palacinky vajíčka. Hodnotím pobyt celkovo skvele aj vďaka ľuďom.

Jediná vec je,že je hore na kopci treba sa prejsť. Čo mi vlastne ani tak nevadilo.

Nous avons quitté les lieux sans même y passer une nuit. Le personnel était souriant, mais beaucoup moins par la suite quand nous avons demandé de trouver une solution de compensation.

Avec ma famille nous avons particulièrement surpris et déçu de l'hotel. L'emplacement est très éloigné de tout centre d'intérêt et il est surtout jonché de poubelles, presque insalubre. La chambre qui nous était destiné avec ma femme était au rez de chassé, sans aucune lumière et le personel nous a d'ailleurs indiqué de ne pas ouvrir la toute petite fenêtre car cela sentait mauvais et les chats errants pouvaient rentrer.

I received a very warm welcome from Christian who is a volunteer at Arima Surf House. He showed me around the property, gave me some great tips about the area and prepared a hearty breakfast in the morning. Christian remained very helpful and friendly throughout my stay here.

The property is listed as beachfront on booking.com, when it is in fact about 30 minutes walking distance along dusty roads. My room lacked proper ventilation and absorbed alot of moisture, meaning that it always felt damp and had a musty odour. For the above reasons, I didn’t stay here for the full duration of my original booking, but instead moved to a hotel right on the beach.

The property is nice for summer. If you visit in winter might be chilly without A/c.

The location is hard to find, no signage on the door. The house is in residential area on the mountain - almost impossible to drive by car on the narrow uphill gravel road. The neighborhood is dirty with lots of trash on the streets and at first glance doesn’t look safe. At the accommodation the hosts were not ready for us to arrive.

Aún no me he ido y ya quiero regresar . El alojamiento te hace sentir como en casa desde el primer momento. Todo está muy limpio y cuidado, y el ambiente es súper acogedor. La terraza en la azotea con hamacas es una maravilla, especialmente después del desayuno, cuando sale el sol y ese ratito se disfruta muchísimo. O para ver el atardecer 🌅 El desayuno incluido está riquísimo y la relación calidad-precio es excelente. La atención del equipo es cercana y muy amable; he viajado sola y me he sentido acompañada y bienvenida en todo momento.

Como pequeña pega, el alojamiento está un poco alejado del centro del pueblo

Perfect location with a beautiful terrace and comfortable living facilities. If I could choose I would never leave.

Nothing. It was great :)

Prima sfeer, netjes onderhouden, heerlijk eten, grote kamer

WiFi is slecht, locatie is niet handig als je slecht ter been bent, erg veel geluid in de omgeving

The accomodation was nice and basic. The staff and yoga teacher was really nice. However our room was really dark and badly located, between the main door and kitchen.

The room was quite loud and dark as it was on the groundfloor. The organisation and communication about surf schedule etc could be a bit better. Food was good but they did unfortunately not provide alternatives for allergies and did not communicate in advance so that I can buy something at the supermarket.

Das beste hostel wo ich war sehr sauber Sehr ruhig große Küche 6 Bett Zimmer auch sehr groß Frühstück auch das beste mehr geht nicht vielen dank

Sauber und sehr nettes personal

Lage

Beautiful, chill environment, clean, the staff were great - helped us with everything.

It's not exactly beachfront, ~20min walk downhill.

Very nice owners, beautiful terrace, well equipped kitchen, quite neighborhood yet in the touristy part of the town

We had a room with a shared bathroom, and there is only one bathroom (toilet and shower together) to be ashared by all the rooms. Sometimes someone was taking a shower singing for 30 min, which is totally ok, but there was no option for toilet at this point...

Friendly staff, had a great time. We booked surflessons and had a lot of fun learning! They also booked the taxi to the airport for us without any problems.

Location is high up the hill and a 10min walk from the beach, but no complains

The owners were really nice and they offered really good workshops, like the makrame workshop 😍

Very nice place, nice hosts, nice atmosphere :)

A lovely, chilled vibe in the town. Rahma and Xabi were great hosts - super friendly and helpful with suggesting places to go and helping with taxis. They also put on a dinner which was a great family feel.

Nice hostel, cosy and welcoming staff !

The couple who run this place are beautiful people. I felt welcomed from the first moment. Rooms are cosy and spacious. Lovely roof terrace and incredible value. I would stay here again in a moment.

A little hard to find, a sign would be great but I figured if out. I just needed to walk around the building.

Arima Surf House is a fantastic place to stay in Tamraght! I spent five days here and had an amazing time. The staff ' Rahma, Xavi and Mable were incredibly friendly, and helpful, always willing to go the extra mile to make sure I had a great experience. Junito, I see you. You're amazing and hope to see you soon again. The hostel itself was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The common areas were inviting and provided a great place to relax and meet other travellers. The location was perfect, with easy access to all the major attractions and public transportation. I would highly recommend Arima House Surf to anyone looking for a great place to stay in Tamraght or Taghazout. It's a great value for money and offers a fun and social atmosphere. I loved it and will definitely come back.

Nice quiet location with an amazing view of the sea/setting sun from the roof terrace. The staff were super friendly and helpful with everything from restaurant recommendations to surfboard hire. We also booked a surf lesson with them which was great and we would totally recommend. Breakfast was nice and they do a vegan option which was pretty unheard of during our particular Morocco trip. We'd definitely stay again.

Beautiful, peaceful and relaxing

Could have done with a few more hooks in the bedroom for towels.

It was very friendly and clean and felt calm

Nothing- everything was great

small but very nice hostel in a more local area (a little bit difficult to find but just ask the people), very friendly staff!

Arima surf house is a really cute stay, located in a quiet area of Tamraght. The staff was really nice and easygoing, the room was clean and the building has a cute and cozy rooftop. Recommended!

The staff was kind to me, de bed was comfi, the room was reasonably clean for it's price.

Unfortunately, I had a bad experience here. When I arrived one of their dogs wanted to attack me (showing teeth, walking towards me etc), so it wasnt a nice start. But then unfortunately this dog literally barked the whole night next to my room. I didnt sleep at all. Also the bathroom was not clean and had mold. I left after one night. I was hoping they would be reasonable and give me any kind of discount or good cancellation policy for the 2 nights I didn't use, but this was not the case and I kept paying in full. So if you're a good sleeper, you could definitely have a nice time here. But it was not for me.

Very stylish hostel and friendly hostel owner

Beautiful house with very friendly and welcoming people.

We had a good stay here and the owners were really nice. Definitely could stay again if visiting Tamraght!

Wonderful big room with clean and warm shower. Cosy kitchen that we didnt use though still possible if you want. The owners took good care of us when i felt a bit under the weather one day with a fresh ginger honey tea. Much appreciated. There is parking space just next to the hotel. If you have a car, this place is great.

It was cozy and chill plus hosts were very welcoming and open hearted ❤️

Many noises during the night (dog fights, church)

Nice and clean room. Managing couple is super friendly and they can organize surfing session too.

Xabi and Rhama are so lovely people and help you with everything!

Super friendly hosts. Nice roof top hang out space Comfortable and clean with nice decor. Great value!

Noise carries a bit through house. Not really a problem just something to note for those staying in garden room if you are light sleepers.

The house is really clean and nicely equipped. The two hosts are the best we had in our stay in Morocco. They were really nice! We did a surf course with them and had the best time and were able to improve a lot. We did came again during our vacation and would come again in the future.

Facilities and staff is great

Rahma was very kind and helpful. Location was perfect because it was near the beach.

So sweety and cool

Nothing all it was nice

We enjoyed our stay at Arime so much, the place is very calm, comfy beds, friendly staff, clean rooms, and a chill terrasse with a nice view. and the best thing is that the place is just 3min away to the beach.

super beautiful house and incredibly clean. Best location possible, there’s a nice kitchen you can use and the owners are so lovely

Arima is a perfect place to stay in Taghazout and experience surfing. The place is super clean and comfortable, the breakfast was tasty. But the best about this place are people and atmosphere.

I had a very nice stay at Arima Surf House. Rahma and Xabi were great hosts, very welcoming and friendly, they make you feel at home. I had booked for one night but ended up extending my stay. At the end I didn't want to leave ! Also took a surf class with Xabi which was fantastic. Xabi is a very good instructor, the group was small and he took us to a perfect spot for beginners. The hostel is just a couple minutes walk from the beach in a quiet area. It has a nice terrasse which is perfect to chill and chat with fellow guests and volunteers. The beds in the dorm are new and very comfy. Breakfast was delicious. I definitely recommand this place and will go back there next time I'm in Taghazout !

Good location, very welcoming owners and volunteers, clean and light bedrooms with plenty of space. Wifi got fixed while I was there and worked well enough for social media etc but probably not fast enough for working!

excellent location, right in the centre of town, walking distance to all shops, restaurants and beach but still quiet in the evenings.

perhaps they could have had a shelf to unpack your clothes instead of having to put them in the floor.

Hostel 10 Rahma 10 Xhabi 10 Arima 10 Breakfast 10 everything 10 just go there. you won‘t regret it.

We had a really good time in Taghazout, the hosts were awesome! There was always somebody available to answer questions or give advice on where to go for food or what to do. The breakfast was 10/10.

I loved everything about this couple's house and project! A great place to discover Taghazout, learn to surf and meet like-minded people. Breakfast is generous and excellent. I would recommend a week here to anybody that wants to feel the real Morocco and have lots of fun and peace. Thank you, Rahma, Xabi and Adriana for an unforgettable stay!!!

Kind hosts, calm place, good location

The best hostel you will find in Taghazout! It’s a family vibe, Brahma and Xabi will make you feel like home. They prepare breakfast and you can enjoy it on the beautiful terrace. After a good day of surfing you can always find company or just take some time for yourself as it is a very chill and more quiet place compared to other busy hostels. Perfect place to relax, surf and have the best stay in Taghazout :)

Great hostel with a calm, comfortable, chilled-out, and authentic atmosphere run by super hospitable owners. Clean and cozy room and 5-star homemade breakfast. Best surf lessons and surf guiding by a passionate and experienced surfer. Book here before they get famous.

it’s a great place to stay in Taghazout, especially for Surfers/Yogis and solo travelers. It’s located in a quite but still very central area of Taghazout. The place has a great vibe, the owners with her lovely dog Arima spread this vibe. The room is nice, comfortable bed, everything you need is there. The best part is the Terrace, it’s a welcoming, laid back and great equipped area. The whole experience felt like staying with friends you know already a long time. Thank you last not but least BEST breakfast in a very long time, you will start the day in the best way

seriously nothing

The hosts had a very welcoming and homely atmosphere at the hostel. Guests were very welcome and the hostel had a warm and more personal feel to it. It was nice and quiet in the evenings and, very relaxing on the terrace. The hosts were the highlight of the stay.

I was travelling with 2 friends, we had triple room. It had a lot of light and was very comfy. The terrace is also nice. I felt like home and we met very nice people. Special thanks to Xabi and Rahma, they are amazing hosts!

would be nice to have drawers to put your stuff

We enjoyed a lot our stay in Arima surf house. Rahma and Xavi made our stay memorable. But Arima (the puppy) was the best companion!! The terrace is amazing, you can have a lot of chats and meet nice people. More than a hostel it was a home for us!

Best surf house ever!! We spent a week here and it felt like home. Rahma and Xabi are really nice and welcoming. The hostel is beautiful, clean and cozy. We will definitely come back!! The atmosphere is great, even though it is just 1 minute walking to the beach and the main street of Taghazout its a calm place to relax and enjoy the terrace. Thanks for everything and see you soon! ❤️ Antia & Cris

I’ve had an absolutely amazing experience at Arima Surf House. First of all, i’s more than just a hostel,it’s a guesthouse too, so I stayed in a well refurbished, as the whole property is, twin room on my own. The space you get there is great whether you’re a single traveler or a couple, there’s an awesome terrace, big kitchen (fully equipped) and a lounge where you can chill out or work. The hosts are a beautiful couple o people who are so genuinely helpful and kind. Oh, and let’s not forget about the great location, right in the mix, close to the beach and if you’re up for it surf lessons etc from the best in town (Xabi). Thanks so much, Xabi and Rahma :)

Rahma and Xabier are great owners, very helpful and friendly (made us feel like family), they gave us many good tips on restaurants, rental for the surf equipments... The hotel is very clean and only few meters away from the beach!!! I recommend Arima Surf House and will definitely stay again there...

Arima house is such a nice place, quiet during the night, with a lovely kitchen and terrasse to hang out and enjoy the panorama. Rahma and Charlie are incredibly welcoming and friendly. I totally enjoyed my stay there and would recommend it to everybody!
