Wonderfull Riad to find peace and tranquility in the middle of the town. Very hospitable!
Pros: Amal was a great host. Ever so friendly. Great breakfasts.
Cons: Some attention to maintenance and cleaning details needed. Nothing major, but some paint, lightbulbs, showerheads etc.

Great location, a beautiful Riad and Amal was amazing!
Pros: The Riad had an excellent location being right in the heart of the Medina. It was easy to walk to major attractions like Jardin Secret, the Orientalist Museum, and Jemaa el-Fna, which made exploring Marrakech very convenient. The riad itself is beautiful, comfortable, and well-designed, with a lovely mix of traditional Moroccan style and modern touches. The space felt spacious, well-equipped, and thoughtfully laid out, with air conditioning and relaxing common areas. Breakfast made by Amal was delicious and well prepared, and the hospitality really stood out. Amal also made us an evening meal which was also the meal we had in Marrakech. Amal was warm, attentive, and made us feel genuinely welcome throughout our stay, with thoughtful personal touches. Overall, White Cactus was clean, comfortable, well located, and very well run. We would happily stay here again and recommend it to anyone visiting Marrakech.

Pros: Then yummiest and most thoughtful breakfast was freshly prepared for us at the time we chose. This was SUPERB! The Riad is lovely and has all the things you may need for a stay.
Cons: The saved location isn't correct (maps or GPS) so we spent a bit of time getting lost and fortitiusly found the hosts in the streets and they took us to the right location.

Nice intérieur, outside not so much
Pros: the riad was beautiful all the rooms where amazing. the place was confy. The poo, great to relax after so much stress in marrakech
Cons: That it was hard to communcate at arrival because it was only an email. I was used to being cotacted by whatsapp and thta would make things easier. to get to the riad it was not mentioned we would need to pay someone to guide us because GPS by car does not work. The entrance location was all dirty outside under construction, the terrace are really close between riads and next door its a family and we were only talking by the pool at night no music and they would knock the door.

Pros: Location sicuramente suggestiva, adatta per che vuole fare una esperienza tipica in stile riad marocchino. Posizione ottima per stare nella Medina. Terrazza molto bella. Area piscina bella e comoda per stare in compagnia.
Cons: Suggerirei agli host di posizionare un’insegna davanti alla porta del riad, come fatto dalla maggior parte dei riad in zona, in alternativa dare indicazioni specifiche per trovare la location agilmente. Per le porte delle stanze e dei bagni sarebbe comodo avere le maniglie.
