Villa Dar Tamazerte
Ourika Valley, Morocco
Why we love it
Dar Tamazerte is a beautiful and spacious privately owned villa that the owners let on a selected basis when they are not in residence. The villa is set in its own extensive sub-tropical, landscaped gardens with large swimming pool, shaded outdoor terraces, mature olive and fruit trees and enjoys stunning views of the Atlas mountains.
The villa is set in 1.5 acres of private walled gardens with over 60 mature olive trees as well as fig, avocado, lemon, lime, orange, apricot and pepper trees. It also has a kitchen garden that provides some of the produce that you will enjoy during your stay. The rural location provides space, peace and beauty away from the hustle and bustle of Marrakech whilst giving easy access both to this vibrant city and to the mountains. The villa enjoys shared use of a clay tennis court, a gym, a hammam/spa and a golf practice area.
The villa is fully staffed to ensure that guests enjoy a truly relaxing stay. A cook and a house keeper live in separate staff
accommodation attached to the villa and are always available, either to prepare meals and provide refreshments should you decide to relax at the villa, or to welcome you home after a days activities or an evening out. The owners also retain the services of an English manager, Tim Buxton, who with his team can make any arrangements you require during your stay.
Each of the three bedroom suites include a bathroom (with bath or shower), a dressing area and an outdoor terrace.

The Palais de L’O was extremely comfortable with absolutely charming and very helpful staff. We had a lovely week, which ticked all the boxes, thank you so much for all your hard work. Also when I got home this afternoon, resting on top of the inevitable pile of bills was a parcel containing a lovely Garden Mint candle, thank you so much, what a lovely and much appreciated surprise.
