Welcome from Tania and Ali to Le Douar des Arganiers, our personal guest house on Morocco's paradise coast. Its name brings Swiss French and Moroccan together - just like we do - and means “The hamlet of the argan trees”.

You'll find these extraordinary trees here in abundance. Almost a symbol of Morocco and this region, they're as famous for their exquisite oil as the goats who accomplish miraculous feats climbing them to enjoy their favourite feast.

Nestling in the midst of this idyllic countryside on the Atlantic coast between Essaouira and Agadir, you'll find the small traditional Berber village of Sidi Kaouki and our guest house. And just a ten-minute stroll from Le Douar des Arganiers you'll find an immense sandy beach, much-admired for its sweeping expanse and superb surfing, kitesurfing and windsurfing.

We fell in love with this village and set about creating our dream. A guest house with a personal touch that's a haven of peace and beauty. A place that’s also our home, combining the cleanliness and order of the Swiss with the kindness and welcoming warmth of the Moroccans.

Built of local stone using natural materials and traditional techniques, Le Douar des Arganiers complements the beautiful landscape of its setting and respects the environment in more ways than one, including by running exclusively on solar energy.

Le Douar des Arganiers is a story that began when we first came to this magical area. It was then that we dreamt of creating a guest house built of traditional Moroccan materials to create a home in the image of this magnificent, welcoming and warm-hearted country.
At Le Douar des Arganiers we want to share our love for this still unspoilt region, which has everything you could desire for a deep sense of well-being - the ocean, pure air and perfect peace.
