A 1960s family house by Jacqueline Foissac in the Palmeraie

There are houses that remind me why I chose Marrakech.
This is one of them.
Conceived in the 1960s as a family home by French interior designer Jacqueline Foissac and Spanish painter Alejandro Reino, and later enriched by the unmistakable touch of Bill Willis, this is a house with a soul.
Located in one of the most sought-after and privileged areas of the Palmeraie, the villa enjoys an exceptional setting surrounded by nature, while remaining close to Marrakech.
A Moorish patio, zelliges, tadelakt, painted wood, sculptural fireplaces and beautiful proportions… all surrounded by 1.3 hectares of mature gardens, majestic palms and ancient olive trees.
With six en-suite bedrooms in the main house and additional guest pavilions nestled throughout the gardens, the property offers around ten en-suite bedrooms in total.
A rare place that could remain an extraordinary private residence, or become the setting for the kind of intimate boutique hotel one dreams of finding in Marrakech.
A piece of Marrakech history, ready for its next chapter.
