ALmas apparemment

Forty minutes from Fes by road, ALmas apparemment sits on B5 in Ifrane, the cedar-forested town Moroccans call "Little Switzerland" for its stone chalets and pitched roofs. The apartment suits self-caterers and families wanting a garden-facing base away from city noise.

A kitchen and separate kitchenette cover longer stays, while heating matters here — Ifrane sits above 1,600m and winters bring snow rarely seen elsewhere in Morocco. Parking is on-site; the bathroom is shared.

Al Akhawayn University and the town's cedar forest, home to Barbary macaques, are both a short drive away.
