One of the latest luxury launches in Morocco is the stunning Oberoi Marrakech, which is set inside a palatial residence, inspired by the destination’s ancient palaces.

Nestling within 28 acres of orchards with fragrant citrus trees and centuries old olive groves plus beautifully landscaped gardens, The Oberoi features 84 luxurious rooms and villas.

Most feature large private pools and gardens, while all are spacious and feature authentic Andalusian design with beautiful views of either the Atlas mountains or the lush landscaped grounds.

As dusk falls, head for a pre-prandial drink in the bar before making a choice between the two restaurants. Siniman, a  fine dining restaurant with an unashamedly Moroccan menu, serves specially curated dishes from across the country, prepared using seasonal produce from the organic kitchen garden.

Meanwhile, a Mediterranean and international menu is served at Tamimt, where guests can dine indoors with a view of the gourmet show kitchen or take a table at the al fresco terrace with views of the Atlas Mountains.

The dreamy Oberoi Spa is surrounded by orchards and offers both traditional Moroccan and Ayurvedic treatments. Event planners will also be pleased to note the 300 square metre function room and smaller meeting rooms for functions.
