描述

IMPORTANT NOTE:
The prices are for one complete apartment or the suite (if its said 450 MD it refers to one apartment, 4 people, or the suite, 2 people)

The house is located in the Al-Andalus area, five minutes from Uta Hammam square and close to one of the entrances of the medina, Bab El Souk. In the ground and first floor there are both apartments (each with two double rooms) and in the second floor there is a suite (with one double room). The apartments and suite have been decorated with the best Xauen traditional products, from the best craftsmen. The decoration intend to fix to the tradition but with all the facilities to make your stay comfortable. There are beautiful natural environment surrounding Xauen. For instance, you can climb to the hisghest pick (2.150 meters) cloaked in a rare cedar, Abies maroccana, or walk along the rivers Farga and Kelaa, listening the Barbary apes. If you wish sun and beach, Oued Laou beach is only one hour from Xauen, driving along an astonishing road.
The suite differs from the apartments because it has its own private terrace with an astonishing view of the medina.
Dar el Moualim is not a usual business, but a develop local project, which provides two direct jobs and that promotes the protection of the medina, which is suffering too many oriental restorations. The house renovation has tried to be as much orthodox as possible, following the tradition in the facades, and in the inner decoration and furniture, but introducing some comforts to improve the stay and the rest of the guests. We wish to offer to the independent, sensitive and cultured traveller a kaleidoscope of authentic experiences inside the heart of a traditional Chaouen neighbourhood. Chaouen has a sweet light, but a harsh climate, with cold nights and wet buildings. We must advice this, though our apartments are prepared to fight against these eventualities (feather duvets, plenty hot water, dehumidifier, heaters and also fire-place in the two bedrooms apartment). During spring season the apartments are fresh and the suite (a bit hotter) is furnished with air-conditioning equipment. The Chaouen medina has big slopes, and to reach our apartments we have to climb a narrow street with steps (about 50 m) as many others in the medina. This small effort will bring us the award of peaceful nights and astonishing views from the private terrace of the suite. Dar el Moualim and its environment is a window to a different world and our best wish is to show it to sensitive travellers. For this reason, if you really wish to be hosted in Dar el Moualim you should remember our proposal and decide if Dar el Moualim suits to your interest. We firmly ask to those tourists not very sensitive to the culture and the heritage, and also those who depend of high level of consumerism and comfort not to book with us. We recommend our lodgement to independent travellers, with some knowledge about Morocco and Chefchaouen, with no physical impediments to step up to Dar el Moualim, which is done in about 10 minutes from the closest parking area.
