Villa Gourza | Oliver’s Travels Ltd

Villa Gourza is a stylish retreat on the L’Amandier plateau, offering comfort, privacy, and sweeping mountain views. Inside, a grand hallway leads to three en-suite bedrooms, two doubles and one twin, each opening onto a private courtyard. An open-plan living and dining space, complete with a cosy fireplace, adjoins a well-equipped kitchen and opens directly onto a terrace with a plunge pool. The sitting room features air conditioning, a TV, and music player, while a utility room adds extra convenience.

Outdoors, guests can relax on the roof terrace with panoramic views, perfect for stargazing over a glass of wine, or enjoy the tranquil garden alive with birdlife. A sunken seating area with a fire bowl sets the scene for evenings under the stars. Guests also have access to the estate’s communal infinity pool, framed by stunning landscapes, making Villa Gourza an idyllic base for a relaxing Moroccan escape.

About 70km from Marrakech, the Ouirgane National Park offers a peaceful retreat of pine forests, red-earth hills, and sweeping mountain views. Villa Gourza sits within this landscape as part of a small collection of private villas, providing a tranquil base for hiking, mountain biking, or horse riding through the foothills. Nearby, Sir Richard Branson’s Tamadot hotel offers pools, a spa, fine dining, and even a small zoo, while the villages of Ouirgane and Marigha provide local shops. The town of Asni, just 20 minutes away, is known for its lively weekly food market.

Day trips abound, from zip lining, golf, and quad biking to the charming village of Tahanaout, surrounded by olive and citrus groves. Here, visitors can join pottery or cooking workshops and browse traditional markets. And of course, no stay is complete without exploring Marrakech itself, a sensory whirlwind of souks, snake charmers, and mint tea in the “Red City.”
