Morocco has long captured the imaginations of travelers from around the world, and it’s not hard to see why. Whether you’re seeking a traditional riad or a secluded retreat in the Atlas Mountains, Morocco has something to offer every type of luxury traveler.
But with so many hotels to choose from, how do you know which one is right for you? That’s where we come in. As luxury travel advisors, we have first-hand knowledge and research on the various types of accommodations available. We can help you make an informed decision based on your individual needs and preferences.
So, if you have Morocco on your mind — and why wouldn’t you? — here are some of our favorite partner hotel properties that you will absolutely fall in love with:
Amanjena
Offering a blend of Moroccan elegance and contemporary design, this sanctuary is located just outside the city of Marrakech. Amidst the property’s palm and olive trees, you’ll find pink buildings that were inspired by a sultan’s palace. The design features dramatic archways, Berber rugs, mosaic floors, and beautiful lanterns.
On-site, the hotel features a spa, tennis courts, golfing, a cig bar, and two restaurants. You’ll also want to try their complimentary afternoon tea where you’ll indulge in pastries and Moroccan mint tea, of course.
You can unwind in one of the 40 spacious pavilions and maisons, each featuring luxurious furnishings and private courtyards. If you’re traveling with littles, the property is kid-friendly, but they don’t offer a kids club. They have a library with books and movies for children, and they can assist with arranging babysitting.
Selman
You will experience the epitome of Arabian luxury at Selman Marrakech. This hotel is renowned for its stunning equestrian center, where you can marvel at purebred Arabian horses. The kids club features the standard games and crafts, but the true highlight is the horse-centered activities, such as horse-drawn carriage rides and stable visits.
The property features 30 rooms, 25 suites, and 5 private villas. Each of them have an Arab-Moorish aesthetic with unique details like zellige mosaic tiles and curved furniture, each of them with their own unique design twist. Every room features a terrace that overlooks the pool or the gardens, along with a luxurious black-and-white bathtub that you’ll want to sink into after a long day on foot.
The suites have a modern gray color palette and plenty of natural light, with plenty of room to spread out. They have a living room, dining room, and a terrace. Of course, the most extravagant option are the villas that are over 6,200 square feet and have a private pool, garden, butler service, and car for use.
The lap pool is absolutely stunning and you’ll want to dedicate time in your stay to relax poolside. If you’re seeking more tranquility, don’t miss the lavish spa which features smaller swimming pools that offer more privacy.
The Sunday brunch at Le Pavillon is well worth it – you’ll view a live horse show as well as multiple buffet tables, a lobster grill, and yummy desserts.
Royal Mansour
This palatial hotel offers a level of luxury that is unparalleled. Originally built for royalty, this property took over 1,200 artisans three years to build it. The hotel boasts 53 private riads, each with multiple floors, private courtyards, and rooftop terraces. It’s the perfect spot to have breakfast or to enjoy a drink by the fireplace while stargazing.
In addition to the many indulgent treatments they offer, the 27,000-square-foot spa facility has two hammams, a Watsu bath area, a salon, and a tea lounge.
If you’re traveling with children, they offer a wonderful kids club where little ones can learn about Morocco through experiences such as chocolate making classes and camel rides.
Dar Ahlam
Nestled in the palm groves of Skoura, secluded by palm groves and almond trees, lies Dar Ahlam. This hotel offers a secluded escape at the edge of the Southern Moroccan desert.
This boutique hotel features 14 suites, with a maximum guest count of up to 30 people on-site at one time. The Kasbah suites are situated in the heart of the house, where you’ll climb a staircase to enjoy the beautiful views from the rooftop terrace. The Garden suites provide more privacy and open up to the gardens.
Known for its commitment to sustainability, Dar Ahlam incorporates energy-saving practices and a farm-to-table dining concept. You can enjoy guided excursions into the surrounding desert, relax by the pool, or unwind in the serene gardens. Be sure to arrange a private picnic and enjoy a beautiful meal amongst the pomegranate bushes, too!
La Mamounia
La Mamounia is an iconic hotel with a rich heritage that offers a perfect blend of traditional Moroccan charm and modern luxury. The hotel is based directly inside the city walls of the old medina, so you have very easy access to the souks and historical sites.
The property sits on around 20 acres that are filled with roses, cacti, orange trees, palm trees, and olive trees. Stepping into the front doors of the hotel, you’ll immediately be immersed into a world filled with beautiful artwork, velvet adorned furniture, deep wood tones, and a soothing fountain that melts away any of your worries.
The hotel features 135 rooms, 71 suites, and 3 private riads. Each room offers a beautiful view, whether it’s of the Koutoubia minaret, the park grounds, or the Agdal Gardens.
If you have a sweet tooth, be sure to visit Pierre Hermé’s sweets shop on-site at the hotel. You’ll want to try his famous macarons, trust us! Le Churchill Bar is the perfect place for jazz lovers, as you can grab a cocktail and enjoy the beautiful ambiance. The property does enforce an elevated dress code in public areas, including within their restaurants and bar, so do be sure to dress for the occasion!
