About our home

I propose two places to stay in Marrakesh.

Firstly, my main house is in the countryside of Marrakesh, 10 miles from the midtown. I have a dog and a cat there, a garden for them ... and a swimming pool for me :) There are two rooms (I use one of them as my office as I am photographer), and a big living room. It is perfect on spring and summer to relax.

The other place is a flat in the midtown of Marrakesh. It was my former place, but I have kept it as it is the best solution when I have to work in the Marrakesh and have no time to come back to the countryside. There are 3 rooms ! It is on the 5th floor (the uppest one) and gives you a nice view on the neighboorhood. It is great if you plan to spend lots of time visiting Marrakesh and the old city.

More about us

I've been living in Marrakesh, Morocco for 4 years. I am French, and I've come here in order to work as a local TV director: MarrakechTV. A great job, since there are so many great things and places here in Morocco worth to be shot in video pictures.
I speak English of course, and I've learnt some Arabic ... but I am ashamed that I have not improved it much since I am here. I've been to Singapore, Hong Kong, Thailand, Switzerland and Italy before. Now, I want to offer my mother a trip to Japan, as she has always dreamt about it ! And as I have left France for such a long time, it's the least I can do for her. And of course, I'll do this trip for myself too ! Japan ! Just love it :)
In addition, allow me to share this link. Through it, you'll be able to discover the Marrakech I know (samples of my work about the city) ... and the Marrakech you'll discover very soon I hope :

Where is it?

Neighbourhood

The neighboorhood is really quiet. The residence has been built on a main road full of modern shops, "café" (bars without alcohol), grocer, vegetable and fruit shops (tasty and very affordable) and just near a giga mall (Marjane commercial place). Therefore the entrance (and the windows) of the place is on the other side of the building and offer a view on the residence garden.

Marakesh is not a big city, you can easily catch a taxi from the home to the cultural places, the Medina (old city), the Jemaa El Fna square, the Souks (for handcraft shopping), the Yves Saint Laurent Majorelle garden, the old palaces Bahdi and Bahia, the Saadiens Tombs, and you'll be there in no more than 10 minutes from the home for no more than 2 euros each trip. In addition, I advise you to leave Marrakesh for 1 day, in order to discover the sea town, Essaouira (two hours by autobus) very famous for its tradionnal music festivals and surf spots. Anyway, don't worry, I'll give you lots of advises when you are here and introduce you to the places.

In addition, Marrakesh is the main touristic city of Morocco, so this is a very secured place. You can go out by day or by night (the city is famous for its nightlife part) without being worried.
