About the villa
A cosy hammam and calming yoga room provide excellent spaces to relax. | Sunset views of the Atlas Mountains are visible from the villa grounds. | A croquet and boules court encourage friendly family competition.
This magnificent large villa is set in a prime countryside location near the renowned Assoufid golf course, in a very private position but only 15 km from the restaurants, boutiques and historic gardens of exotic Marrakech. Each of the spacious high ceilinged rooms of this impressive villa are beautifully decorated in classic contemporary style with Moroccan touches. The splendid sitting room leads through to a dining room with fireplace and most ground floor rooms open to the broad terraces with ample soft seating and dining areas. Five of the spacious seven bedrooms are in the main house, one of which is on the ground floor, each bedroom opening to terraces. Upstairs the four very spacious bedrooms are set in each corner of the villa and two bedrooms open to terraces with spectacular views of the Atlas mountains.
The large, partly covered terrace connecting the two halves of the first floor has a fireplace and is ideal for sundowners while taking in the panoramic sunset views over the Atlas mountains. In the Guest House there are a further double and twin bedroom which are slightly smaller and open to a shared terrace. Wandering from the terrace into the extensive gardens you'll find the large private pool and patio with comfortable loungers and sofas, pool house with kitchenette, hammam, fitness room as well as a clay tennis court, croquet and boules court. An ultra-relaxing atmosphere is enhanced by breakfast, housekeeper and concierge services, and the cooks are on hand to prepare lunch and dinner. Offering a very high level of comfort and service and great value for money, this is a very good option for friends or families travelling together.
Review
"The villa is even better than the photos suggest. This is partly due to the quite wonderful staff who made our stay special ( such excellent food) but also it is a wonderful villa. World class. We had such a wonderful holiday and only wish we could have stayed longer!."
