Holiday in paradise
Villa jannah is a beautiful haven far removed from the hustle and bustle of the city. This was a holiday for my elderly parents and my 8 month old son. As a new first time mom, I was worried about taking my son abroad however I need not have been. The owner provided me with a car seat, baby deck chair and cot. He even kindly allowed us to stay as long as we needed to on the last day of our holiday because our flight wasn't until 23:30. I certainly would have struggled meeting my son's needs had he not.
The villa is immaculate! What you see on the photos is slightly inaccurate however because what they fail to show is the warmth of the place. Hayat the housekeeper really made the holiday so special. She not only cooks and cleans but she goes that extra mile. I picked up viral gastroenteritis from my son and was very sick one day and she nursed me back to health. She made me various natural remedies and even massaged my stomach to ease the pain. Furthermore she offered to take care of my son. I didn't burden her with this but I'm sure he wouldn't have minded as he absolutely loved her. She has such a beautiful heart.
There was also the gardener Mohammed who, despite having a bike, walked to the local mosque with my husband and dad to show them where it was. He even invited us to his own home for food. These people felt more like family than staff.
The swimming pool is wonderful and being a hijabi it's nice that the villa is not overlooked. I asked the owner if Mohammed could attend to the garden early in the morning so I was able to swim and this request was no trouble for them. I would recommend paying extra and having the pool heated. It was very hot even in October but the water was very cold. Once the water was heated it was perfect!
Unfortunately the water heater broke at the start of the holiday but this was quickly replaced as soon as possible and as compensation the owner heated the pool for free for us. To reiterate, the owner went out of his way to make our stay as wonderful as he could.
Finally he organised transport to and from the airport in a spacious people carrier. Youssef, the driver was very accommodating and knowledgable. We had bespoke tours which were family friendly. He's reasonably priced too. I'd definitely recommend him if you're not confident enough to navigate the roads in Morroco.I really am sad to be back home but certainly intend to return again soon. This was a beautiful holiday in a stunning villa.
