Villa Romancia Ourika Vallee

Should you need a guide, a friendly young man, who has lived all his life in the valley and speaks basic English, is available for all enquiries during the stay. He too can arrange a food, laundry,and organise an excursion or other services. We also support the housekeeper who is a local with his monthly salary and donations such as clothes and food to his family. The person who will meet the clients at the airport will provide the guests with information of the house, the local restaurants and activities. We use local services.

The villa is situated just 48 km south of Marrakech at the foot of the Ourika Valley river high on a safe place between the beautiful Atlas mountains. Built on a property of 750 sqm surrounded with a big garden with fruit trees.

Ourika is the place to experience nature unspoiled and the valley is inhabited by the Berbers and little has changed in many years. Everyone is very friendly and everywhere one is greeted with a smile. Travel further up the valley on mule or dromedary, enjoy a simple meal in the local restaurant or just stay at the house and arrange food to be brought in. This is the ultimate escape for the hectic modern life. Should you need a guide, a friendly young man, who has lived all his life in the valley and speaks basic English We recommend to use all local owned stores and restaurants. And this again contributes directly to the local communities as local staff are employed and locally produced and sourced goods are used. I buy bread and fruits from the Ourika valley. The local restaurants cook mostly with local products. The house has water supply from two water butts, one for the garden one for the house. We change sheets and towels after one week. We ask our clients to minimise the use of electricity. We use energy efficient light bulbs. We recommend as much as possible to travel with car rentals in the region.
