Situated in the plains of the Ourika Valley with views to the Atlas Mountains, the perfect base from which to explore bustling Marrakech (30km/40mins) or to explore the Ourika valley with a picnic and hiking in the Atlas Mountains. Villa Carapace is the perfect retreat for a smaller group.
This gem of a property provides the perfect setting for a relaxed and spoiling stay, providing comfortable and elegant accommodation for six people within its spacious gardens. Designed and decorated to capture the Moroccan soul, Villa Carapace offers all modern comforts.
The bright salon, with comfortable sofas, has French windows opening onto the south facing terrace, with shade and fragrant plantings, seating and summer dining options looking over the gardens. The two ground floor double bedrooms, both with en-suite bathrooms, have their own small terraces, whilst the master suite on the first floor opens onto a spacious roof terrace with views of the Atlas Mountains and external steps to the terrace and gardens below.
With air conditioning, open fireplaces and winter heating, Villa Carapace can welcome guests all year round, through hot summer days with cooler evenings and pleasantly mild winters.
The House Manager (who speaks good English), cook and housekeeper, will all ensure that you are looked after beautifully. The house manager will be happy to book outings and taxis for you and ensures the smooth running of the property. The cook provides daily breakfast within the rental cost, and is available to prepare and serve lunch and dinner in the villa at a very reasonable per head charge (please ask for details). A selection of soft drinks, drinking water and wine are available to purchase from the house manager.
The grounds offer spacious lawns and beautiful plantings, maintained by two gardeners. A short walk, along a shaded path, leads to the swimming pool (13m x 5m with 1.5m depth, heating offered) and its pool house offering facilities. The house is set in a secluded corner of a gated private group of eight houses, offering security and yet with the slower pace of life of the countryside, with a shared clay tennis court for the more energetic.
