Villas with huge private pools that actually feel private
Architecture that rivals the historic Ben Youssef Madrasa
Service so telepathic it feels like they have a dossier on you
Resumo Rápido: It's a 25-minute drive from the Medina, so don't book this if you want to stumble home from a souk at 2 AM.
Revisado por @wheres.kam: I felt like absolute royalty staying here. The architecture is mind-blowing—especially that main courtyard view. Sipping traditional tea in the gardens was the most relaxing part of my trip. If you want a quiet, luxurious escape from the city noise, this is it.

Antes de reservar
Bom saber
The hotel is 25 minutes from the city center; factor travel time into dinner reservations.
Breakfast is often included in rates and is an elaborate affair — don't skip it.
The 'resort tax' is small, but food and spa prices are London/NYC levels.
O que levar
Modest swimwear (it's still Morocco, though the hotel is liberal)
A warm layer for evenings, even in summer (desert climate drops at night)
Room Genie
Melhores escolhas
Deluxe Villa with Private Pool (worth the splurge over a room for the privacy)
Royal Suite for the best Atlas Mountain views from the terrace
Quartos a evitar
Deluxe Rooms (no pool) if you're coming in summer — the public pool gets busy
