A veritable feast for the soul and senses, words do not do justice to the charms of Morocco. Instead, the kingdom’s delights must be found first-hand in its medinas, from Tangier to Marrakech, against the backdrop of the tanners, merchants and goldsmiths who work there. Or in the Majorelle gardens, acquired by Yves Saint-Laurent and Pierre Bergé in 1980 because it was there they found that “the colours of Matisse mingle with those of nature”. Or in the alleyways lined with orange trees, infused with the scent of bay leaves and spices, the intoxicating essences that inspired local parfumier Abderrazzak Benchaâbane, whose perfumes are now archived at the famous Osmothèque de Versailles.
These are the marvels – spread along the shores of the Atlantic, lying at the horizon of Europe, standing at the edge of the desert – that await all those who visit or inhabit this authentic land: Morocco is the land of dreamers, painters, collectors, and anyone who has fallen under the spell of its ochre and azure shades.
Wander the cobbled streets of this small Moroccan port, or take a stroll along the beach, and you will soon discover a town that exudes its own sense of charm and tranquillity. Or opt for the heat of the desert, atop a camel, enveloped in Tuareg fabrics, refreshed by mint tea and the cool breeze.
But Morocco is not just a place where land and sea meet. From the first monarchs to the pioneering flights of Aeropostale, via citadels recalling the Portuguese colony of yesteryear, history and art intertwine with the same effortless sense of harmony.
Unpack your suitcases for good in this exceptional setting. Whether you yearn for breakfasts with a sea view or a morning swim in the pool of your modern villa, Emile Garcin Morocco will have the perfect property, each as sublime as the last.
