Casa Tortuga is located in Wild Turtle eco-retreat in Douar Houmr, North Morocco's, just a 25-minute drive from Assilah and the Atlantic Ocean. This adobe bricks farmhouse is a unique blend of rustic charm and sustainability, offering an escape from city life. Nestled in nature, the property features a natural pool, resembling a pond, where you can swim in lush green surroundings. A pool house with a bar, a brick pizza oven, an outside shower, lounge chairs and eco-friendly amenities like a natural water filtration system that showcase our commitment to sustainability. The main house accommodates up to 6 guests with two cozy bedrooms, each bearing a double bed and a single bed, a living room with a firepit, a separate kitchen, and modern dry toilet and bathroom extensions. The terrace provides diverse seating options and a hammock. While you're here, you may hear the distant sounds of neighboring farms, where dogs, donkeys, and roosters contribute to the symphony of rural life. These sounds are an integral part of the nature balance and the authentic experience that Casa Tortuga offers. If you like animals, you can meet our friendly animal companions: Suzy and Luna, the dogs, and Lucy, the cat. Wildlife abounds, including turtles, hedgehogs, frogs, toads, and peacocks, adding to the natural charm and the ecological balance of the place. Escape the ordinary, embrace sustainability, and immerse yourself in the beauty of nature at this one-of-a-kind eco-retreat, where you'll find not just a place to stay, but a unique opportunity to reconnect with the natural world and create lasting memories. We do not offer breakfast or catering on site. You have access to the kitchen with basic cooking essentials (tea, coffee, oil, spices, etc.). It is therefore recommended to bring your own food. There is a diverse range of restaurants in Assilah, 25 minutes from the farm. We don't offer WiFi, 4G network is available for Maroc Telecom, Inwi. It is weak for Orange.
Toma has lived in the North Moroccan countryside for a while, enjoying the cultural immersion, the sweet weather, the chill life and the good surf. He teamed up with Ismael to help him on his eco-project : an off-grid experimental sanctuary for freedom, wellbeing and cultural exchanges in arts, sustainability and permaculture. The idea behind the place is to have a place where people can come as guests to rest in the wonderful countryside, to practice yoga, learn new skills or share theirs with other. The place hosts clients and volunteers in a community vibe. "We hope to make this place a safe haven for people fed up with the fast life."
For your trips around the farm (Assilah, market, beaches), it is easier to have a rental car or your own car. Exploring the natural beauty of Douar Houmr region is an absolute delight. Wander through the rural and forestry landscapes, you'll discover the serene charm of this eco-retreat. The tranquil ambiance makes it perfect for leisurely walks, allowing you to connect with nature. On Mondays, don't miss the opportunity to visit the vibrant Souk market in Sidi el Yamani, a nearby village. Immerse yourself in the lively atmosphere as you browse local goods, savor traditional flavors, and engage with the warm-hearted locals. For those seeking seaside adventures, the pristine and refreshing waters of the Atlantic Ocean are waiting for you. Head to the stunning beaches of Sidi m'Ghayet, Paradise Beach, Las Cuevas, and Radda Beach. There, you can bask in the sun, swim in crystal-clear waters, have vivid surf sessions, cover yourself with natural green clay that you can gather from the cliffs or simply unwind on the sandy shores. A short drive away, the unique city of Assilah awaits, known for its captivating art festival and mesmerizing street art murals. Stroll through the charming medina streets, where you can shop for exquisite souvenirs and crafts while soaking in the local culture, history and vibrant artistic scene. To make the most of your exploration in Douar Houmr and the surrounding areas, having your own car or a rental is highly recommended. It provides the convenience and flexibility to venture to these beautiful destinations at your own pace, ensuring you don't miss out on any of the enchanting experiences this region has to offer.
