Marrakech delight

When you’re planning your getaway and one of you prefers lazing by the pool and the other prefers the sights and sounds of a bustling city – where do you go? We deal with this a lot when we plan itineraries for our clients and often combine cities that can dazzle your senses with the peace of a hotel with exquisite pool and spa. And, Marrakech ticks those boxes.

Explore the narrow and winding souks and delight in the performers at Djemâa el Fna Square from musicians to snake charmers. Marvel at the Mosques, tombs and palaces of the city’s Islamic cultural heritage which are set against the backdrop of the Atlas Mountains. Once you’ve explored the hustle and bustle of the ‘Red City’ seek peaceful relaxation in exclusive Riads – these traditional Moroccan houses were once the stately homes of wealthy merchants and courtiers. Or escape to exclusive resorts by the sea.

If this has given you food for thought, we’ve gathered together a few Moroccan hotel gems with some help from our friends at Azure Collection.
