Nestled in a vast estate of 231 hectares of palm, olive and orange trees with the Atlas Mountains offering a postcard backdrop, the Fairmont Royal Palm Marrakech is an oasis of luxury only 20 minutes from the heart of the city. The sprawling resort and country club offers anything a guest could desire, with an 18-hole golf course, a choice of six restaurants and bars, a huge lake-like swimming pool, and an incredible spa plus a kid’s club and fitness centre, you won’t ever need to leave the hotel! The hotel’s architecture mirrors the ksars of the Southern desert regions. The interior décor is equally stunning with an abundance of huge picture windows showcasing the landscaped gardens beautifully. In rooms, a mix of warming, tonal textures and textiles have been used to create a contemporary interpretation of Moroccan style. The cuisine hasn’t been overlooked here either. Breakfast on the terrace of Le Caravane overlooking the pools and gardens, before trying L’Olivier for al Fresco lunch by the pool. The evening calls for the opulent Al Ain restaurant for a Moroccan feast before finishing your day in the jazz bar for some delectable cocktails.
