Nestled between the first hills of the Atlas Mountains and the vibrant city of Marrakech, the Ourika Valley unfolds as a lush natural paradise, one of Morocco’s best-preserved gems.

Passing through a large arched entrance over a canal bridge, guests arrive at a private estate hosting only ten villas, ensuring absolute tranquility and privacy.

The villa welcomes visitors with a beautiful Andalusian-style courtyard filled with fragrant orange and lemon trees and a soothing fountain. Built in traditional style, the residence offers an elegant and peaceful retreat.

Located just 20 minutes from Marrakech’s lively Medina, Villa Amina provides a serene escape within a vast landscaped garden. The garden is adorned with thousands of roses, bougainvillea, plumbago, olive trees, pomegranate trees, and banana plants, along with soft lawns where children can play freely.

The garden is also home to Leila and Charlie, a pair of tortoises who share this peaceful setting with exotic birds and butterflies. Carefully designed by its English owners, the villa features exotic decorative elements creating a refined sanctuary away from the city’s bustle.

The charming and colorful bedrooms are located either on the ground floor of the main villa or in the nearby Pavilion just steps away.

An impressive illuminated staircase leads to the multimedia room with a bar. This space opens onto an upper terrace furnished with traditional Moroccan seating and shaded by a pergola, offering breathtaking views over the gardens and the snow-capped Atlas Mountains — the perfect spot for an aperitif before dinner.

The Pavilion is ideal for guests or teenagers seeking extra privacy. Even in the height of summer, the region enjoys a pleasant dry heat while the house remains cool and comfortable.
