WELCOME TO
“Dar Ayur”
Berber beldi style in Marrakech
The moon is the symbol of this small and intimate Riad located in the heart of the medina of Marrakech.
Berber word “Ayur” means moon, star for which the Berbers have always been a true veneration. The moon embodies sensitivity and femininity, and is the maximum expression of beauty for the Arab people.
Dar Ayur follows and respects the authenticity and the ancient tradition of the “sav
oir-faire marocaine”
The house lies in the elegant Mouessine district in a very strategic position:
Two minutes walk from the legendary Piazza Jamel El Fna, the heart of the Medina.
Two minutes walk from the Koutoubia, Marrakech symbol.
All the main monuments are easy and quick access on foot.
Even here in the evening, it is pleasant and safe walking in the labyrinthine derb (alleys) of Medina.
