Villa Amine

About this property

Villa Amine is a hidden gem nestled among olive groves in the foothills of the Atlas Mountains, just thirty-minutes from the bustle of Marrakech. From the moment you step through the grand entrance courtyard, with its brick-vaulted loggia and fragrant jasmine, you're immersed in a world of serenity and charm. The main villa and guest house are centred around beautiful salons, cosy reading nooks, and a grand dining room adorned with hand-painted ceilings and richly decorated furnishings. Each of the six en-suite bedrooms opens onto a private terrace or balcony, inviting the outdoors in.

Wander through shaded walkways into the lush gardens, where clipped hedges meet wild blooms and secret corners perfect for reading or sipping mint tea. The heated swimming pool is flanked by parasols and loungers, with a poolside pavilion and bar offering a leisurely lunch spot. The estate’s multiple terraces and outdoor dining areas are made for long evenings under the stars. It’s a place where time slows down, with the Atlas peaks ever-present on the horizon.

Please note that the kitchen is for staff usage only; guests are not allowed to cook or prepare any meal. Usage of the kitchen for nibbles (tea, coffee, sandwich, etc.) might be allowed prior to agreement with the owner/property manager.

Villa Amine is tucked into the peaceful Ourika Valley, a scenic stretch of countryside renowned for its natural beauty, fertile farmland and sweeping mountain views. Just a short drive from Marrakech, it offers a calm retreat with easy access to both adventure and culture. Local souks, traditional Berber villages and the famed Ourika waterfalls are all within reach, offering an insight into the area’s heritage and way of life.

Close by, you’ll find tennis and paddle courts, while hiking and biking trails criss-cross the surrounding hills and valleys. Those seeking a slower pace can explore local gardens, stop by artisan workshops or relax in a riverside café. The valley is also known for its saffron farms and aromatic herb gardens, making it a haven for foodies and nature lovers alike. A perfect blend of calm and discovery awaits just outside your door.
