We had spent 4 days staying in a Riad in the Marrakesh Medina enjoying the hustle and bustle, shopping, sightseeing, rooftop restaurants etc. We chose Palais Amador for its location 30 minutes out from the Medina for a further 5 days of relaxation but close enough to revisit the Medina if we wished to do so. The property, pool area and gardens are simply gorgeous. Relaxing by the pool surrounded by flowers and fruit tree orchards, a literal oasis of calm and tranquility. The owners, Zac, Amira and all the staff were so welcoming and helpful and the service and food absolutely excellent. Breakfasts served on the covered garden terrace and dinners served either in the restaurant or on the terrace overlooking the pool. An unexpected bonus was to stroll through the beautiful grounds in search of one of around 50 tortoises who live there to tempt with a slice of tomato. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and were sad to leave but we will certainly return.

Just a bit of a back story to our stay. We had spent 5 nights in the Marrakesh Madina during which we did all our sightseeing tours etc, a busy and fun time. We chose Palais Amador for its location “out of town” for a further 5 nights of relaxation, we had no intention of venturing out. The property and gardens are sublime, creating a literal oasis of calm and tranquility. Sipping orange/tangerine juice freshly picked from the garden! Strolling the grounds in search of tortoise to tempt with slices of tomato

It doesn’t belong to us! 😉

Amazing location for relaxation and being away from the hustle and bustle of Marrakech. Owners and staff were so friendly and helpful. We were almost the only guests during low season in January. Breakfast was made from fresh produce and very filling. Meals ordered using WhatsApp which was very convenient for us. Owners Zack and Amira made us so welcome and we were sad to leave. Located about 30 mins away from centre of Marrakech. Definitely love to return again. Kev and Dawn

A wonderful place. Beautiful architecture, stylish furnishings, attention to detail. Great pool and spa. Very good food in the on-site restaurant, fine breakfasts. Spacious, spotlessly clean rooms. Above all, relaxed atmosphere, peaceful and quiet. Real oasis of elagance. Charming and helpful owners, who personally serve breakfast. Attentive and professional staff. Will surely return for a longer stay.

The most welcoming and accomodating staff. The place is a peace of tranquility away from the hustle of the city. Beautiful grounds and good facilities. Breakfast was slightly different each morning with fresh fruits and juices. The food in the restaurant was faultless and the cocktails super yummy. Zac his wife and mother were such friendly hosts talked to us a lot but didn't impose and answered any questions we had. Would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting a beautiful stay in gorgeous grounds.

It would be good if eggs were included with the breakfast as lots of sweet pancakes are not my idea of a substantial breakfast but this is my personal opinion.

I highly recommend this accomodation! It was so peaceful & the staff were amazing! So friendly & helpful! I can’t wait to return! It’s just out from the main centre of Marrakech. Perfect place to relax & swim. The temperature was 30 degrees with beautiful sunshine! I had a Hammam & massage for my birthday & highly recommend adding this service. The transportation communicated well & I always felt safe as a solo traveller.

This little oasis of beauty and calm, and the wonderful friendship of Almira and Zac will forever remain a treasured memory of our stay in Marrekesh. Beautifully furnished and decorated rooms, fabulous pool with comfortable sun beds and restaurant offering a great choice of cuisine. The attention to detail and warm hospitality from Almira and Zac will see us returning to this beautiful place. Thank you.

A little far out for being picked up on organised tours.

Stunning homely cosy villa with traditional Moroccan decor located in a small Moroccan village within close proximity to Marakesh. Surrounded with beautiful citrus and olive orchard, colorful roses, singing birds and little tortoises, clean fresh air and many starry nights. Breakfast was lovely: Moroccan traditional fresh homemade breads with the high quality olive oil, freshest ever orange juice, sweet yummy confitures, traditional teas, very nice! The entire place is spotless! You could just feel that motherly spirit in every corner as every-every tea pot, cups utensils, and the entire villa were ultra clean and spotless just like 'from home to home'. We had a great relaxing time! Thank you to Zakariya, Amira and Zak's Mother who made this entire place truly a Palatial soulful retreat and a very special place!

I can't think of anything that could not be liked! Beautiful place with lots of hard work to bring traditions and cultures making it so special for people to enjoy!

We loved staying at this family run property that is peaceful and authenticly Morroccan. Zac and Amira are amazing hosts as well and made a real effort to accomodate our dietary requirements. We were looking for a relaxing holiday and this property absolutely hit the target. We also loved being surrounded by nature, the olive and orange trees and the pool was fantastic and had loads of loungers and umbrellas (probably the best pool area we've had on our travels). WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE if you are going to Marrakech.

The view is amazing. There’s a games room at gym a spa gorgeous menu and the most attentive kind and lovely people to look after you! We stayed for three nights and didn’t wanna leave. It was absolute heaven.
