Fodor's Expert Review Jnane Tihihit

Not far from the lake, this paradisiacal farm and guesthouse hides out behind the dusty, unassuming village of Makhfamane. Rooms and suites are scattered through the grounds, which are a veritable explosion of fruit trees, vines, vegetable patches, and aromatics. Accommodations are in keeping with this nature theme: natural colors, fabrics, and materials combine to create supreme comfort without the sense of extravagance. The guesthouse's menu is created entirely from the farm’s pesticide-free bounty; the homemade fresh cheeses are unparalleled. Instead of a chlorine pool, owners Robert and Carole have created a kind of basin that is filled daily and then used to water the gardens at night. There is a host of animals kept on the farm too, including pigs, a rarity in these parts. There's also a boutique that sells homemade cheeses, along with syrups, oils, and other local specialties.
