If this turreted masterpiece of a home, set just a short drive from Marrakech, doesn't say North Africa, then we don't know what will. From the outside, steeped in hues of warm terracotta, the villa harks back to another time. But step inside, and chic modern-day luxury awaits. Downstairs, a minimalist palette of butter-soft leather and dazzling marble finishes creates synergy in the free-flowing space. While floor-to-ceiling picture windows drench the home in natural daylight and offer seamless sight lines to the verdant green scenes outside. Over in the individually-styled bedrooms, it's a more colourful affair with pops of rich jewel shades bringing that North African flair. And you'll love the privacy the bedrooms bring, spaced apart across the two floors with their own bathrooms. Sunny mornings call for alfresco breakfasts beneath the shade of the veranda. Then the rest of the day is yours to bob about that cool, blue pool. Hugged by lofty palms and scented jasmine gardens, it's a dreamy setting. And no Moroccan home would be complete without a swoon-worthy rooftop terrace to savour late afternoon tea and sundowners. Or, on winter evenings, hunker down beside the authentic wood fire fireplace in the lounge. In such a blissfully... secluded setting, you'd never believe the bustling souks of Marrakech are just ten kilometres away. Though you'll need some master skills in persuasion to convince your crew to leave this Arabian idyll.

Host
This home is managed by Oliver
This home is managed directly by a business. A member of their staff will be your point of contact before and during your stay. Nearly twenty years ago, Oliver and his friend began curating the world's most unique and rustic getaways. Driven by their own unforgettable experience at a chateau, they have grown remarkably since then. Much like Plum, they believe in hand-picked luxury that doesn't break the bank.
This home is nominated for the Plum Guide Award.
