Varaa tämä, jos You want the silence of the Sahara and the service of a royal palace without actually leaving civilization.
Miksi ihmiset rakastuvat sitä
- 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
Pikakatsaus: 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.
Arvioinut @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.

Ennen kuin varaat
Hyvä tietää
- 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.
Mitä pakata
- Modest swimwear (it's still Morocco, though the hotel is liberal)
- A warm layer for evenings, even in summer (desert climate drops at night)
Huone Genie
Parhaat valinnot
- 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
Huoneet, joita kannattaa välttää
- Deluxe Rooms (no pool) if you're coming in summer — the public pool gets busy
- Villas near the main building if you want absolute seclusion
