Within reach of the vibrancy of Marrakech, yet with a tranquil countryside setting that invites you to unwind and relax while sampling the delights of its four restaurants, the idyllic gardens and spa, the Oberoi offers both a sightseeing base and an indulgent escape. An astute attention to detail carries through the resort, from the carved detailing of the buildings to the smiling service and the artful cuisines.
Bringing a modern twist to Moroccan design, the rooms and villas are a masterclass in refined luxury. Boasting private terraces or gardens with pools, they blur the boundaries between inside and out, allowing striking views of the olive groves, citrus orchards, Atlas Mountains, or your private courtyard. Rich colours and elegant furnishings combine with pillowtop mattresses, Nespresso coffee machines, freestanding bathtubs and Egyptian cotton robes to create a sanctuary, while complimentary WiFi and satellite TV keep the outside world within reach.
The Oberoi’s extraordinary attention to detail extends to its restaurants and bar, both in the menus and the setting. From Siniman, with its opulent interiors and Moroccan dishes crafted from organic and seasonal ingredients, to Tamimt with its breathtaking views of the Atlas Mountains, dining at the Oberoi is to be savoured as much for the surrounds as the food. Dine poolside at Azur with a view of the Grand Canal and the mountains, the gentle scent of citrus and olive drifting across the water from the orchards beyond, and enjoy the balmy evenings with a glass of fine wine or a cocktail on the terrace of Vue.
From the well-equipped fitness centre and two swimming pools to the Ayurvedic and Moroccan treatments of the Oberoi Spa, time spent in the cosseting surrounds of the Oberoi is likely to leave you feeling refreshed, invigorated and restored. Start your day with a morning dip in the indoor or outdoor pools and end it with a post-sightseeing massage with a view of the orange orchards for the ultimate Moroccan escape.
When not soaking in the views from the terrace or strolling through the fragrant gardens, the vibrant streets of Marrakech are just 25-minute’s drive and promise a sensory adventure of rich colour, sounds and smells. From the lively Jemâa El Fna market to the vivid Majorelle Gardens, Marrakech and the surrounding area boast a wealth of sights and the Oberoi offers an imaginative array of experiences that range from breakfast in a hot air balloon to sunset cocktails and dinner in the Agafay Desert.
