The villa is located on a twelve hectare estate with olive groves, fruit gardens, wandering peacocks and even a family of donkeys. The three bedroom Pool Villa Orangerie is also set on the estate yet both homes and pools offer privacy from each other.

Private transfers are included for guests and furthermore a private driver or car hire can be arranged. Even though the estate is in the city of Marrakech, you will need a car or driver for the short distance to the medina or nearby malls, shops and restaurants.

Any visit to Marrakech will be a memorable experience and the medina has rightly earned its title as a Unesco World Heritage site. The unforgettable Djemaa el-Fna is a good place to start with its snake charmers and story-tellers and be sure to visit as the sun sets and the square becomes a vibrant hot-spot for sampling local delicacies at communal tables by chefs setting up their market stalls.
The ancient walled medina, founded in the middle-ages, is a labyrinth of delights such as ancient palaces, shaded courtyards and beautiful mosques. Shopping in the souks and experiencing a traditional hamman are a must or to escape the frentic pace head for the peaceful gardens of Jardin Majorella just outside. The contrasting Ville Nouvelle, built by the French in the mid twentieth century, offers visitors wider boulevards, contemporary art galleries and trendy boutiques.
The snow-capped Atlas Mountains are visible from the city and can be easily visited in a day, either by hiring your own car or arranging a private driver and guided tour. Meet local berbers, trek with a camel or simply visit stunning landscapes such as the Ouzoud Waterfalls. Further exploration to coastal, laid back Essaouira or the stunning mountain city of Ouarzazate are also possible during your stay.
