Marrakech is somewhat of a mystery to many travellers. In this truly phenomnal location are some of the most impressive high-end villas perfect for your family and friends to enjoy at a much lower price point than you would expect. We don't expect this to last for long though as the world becomes aware of the gem that Marrakech is and the phenomenal stay on offer to you. Marrakech is perfect for shoulder month trips around March, April or towards the end of the year. You'll enjoy 25 - 30 degree weather all whilst staying in the finest properties, receiving ultra-luxury service and at a quarter of the price that you would usually pay for such a trip.
Marrakech has seen a massive evolution over the last few decades. Founded in 1062 by the Almoravid dynasty, it positioned itself as a political, economic, and cultural centre. Due to its geographical location, it also established itself as a major trade hub connecting sub-Saharan Africa with North Africa, Europe, and the Middle East. Even though the world is more widely connected now more than ever, Marrakech still maintains its position as a prime destination. During the French Protectorate, the area saw a large amount of modernisation, and once it found independence, it began attracting international tourists who wanted to explore the historic sites and vibrant market. They often fell in love with it; it’s why Yves Saint Laurent bought a home there on his first trip and returned several times a year and even purchased The Jardin Majorelle to preserve it from being bought and destroyed by hotel developers. Saint Laurent wasn’t the only person who took immense inspiration from Marrakech and Morocco; in fact, throughout the 60s, it played host to Mick Jagger, Robert Plant, and Cat Stevens, who all went to soak up the extraordinary atmosphere. This history is held in many homes, like the modernised traditional house in Marrakech with a rooftop terrace and the modernised riad minutes from downtown Gueliz.
In recent years, Marrakech has been going through its next season as it establishes itself as the private escape of the most in-the-know elite who want to experience the finest stays in destinations that offer prime amenities and experiences without the intrusion of overcrowded tourist spots, providing a serene and exclusive environment. You’ll find luxury villas in Marrakech with private chefs and huge villas in Marrakech with 20 bedrooms perfect for events or large groups set on 4 hectares. You’ll also find properties close to the centre and the action, like a luxury riad in the heart of the Medina of Marrakech.
No matter where Marrakech continues to grow to, it still continues to pay homage to where it came from, be it the appointment of the multi-starred chef Hélène Darroze at La Grande Brasserie, the French restaurant in The Royal Mansour Marrakech, or the classic architecture carefully woven with modern touches in the villas. Marrakech is a must-book for the discerning traveller.
Marrakech and its vibrant arts, exquisite culinary delights, and warm hospitality make it an unmissable destination. During your stay, you can explore the Medina in the heart of Marrakech, this UNESCO World Heritage site has endless streets to explore with bustling souks where merchants sell rugs, spices, jewels, and leather goods. You should also visit el Bali Palace and soak up the Moroccan architecture and the intricately decorated mosaics and carvings; even though it is a ruined palace, you can absorb the beauty of what remains.
Marrakech is also becoming a point of interest for golfers with two well-established courses. The Royal Golf Marrakech is a 15-minute drive from the city centre and boasts breathtaking vistas of the majestic Atlas Mountains on the 27-hole championship course. If you’re looking for a shorter, but equally challenging course, then Al Madden Golf Resort’s 18-hole championship course spanning 72 hectares is an equally suitable alternative. One thing is for sure, whether you’re there to explore the vibrant nightlife, historical sites like the Saadian Tombs, or enjoy a desert excursion in the Sahara Desert, then Marrakech is the place to be.
