Fairmont Royal Palm Marrakech

Fairmont Royal Palm Marrakech occupies a 231-acre estate along Route d'Amizmiz on the southwestern outskirts of the city, roughly a 20-25 minute drive from the medina and Jemaa el-Fnaa, with sweeping views toward the Atlas Mountains. The resort is built around Morocco's first desert-style golf course, an 18-hole layout designed for the arid terrain, alongside extensive grounds that also house an equestrian center and tennis courts — amenities that set it apart from the city-center riads and resorts closer to the medina. Accommodation spans suites and standalone villas, several with private pools, decorated in a contemporary style that blends Moroccan motifs like zellige and tadelakt with modern furnishings. Dining covers several restaurants and bars across the property, and the spa is one of the largest in the Marrakech area, with hammam suites, an extensive treatment menu and multiple outdoor pools. The estate's scale and amenities make it a favored venue for destination weddings and exclusive private events, and the level of seclusion and space appeals to travelers prioritizing a resort-style golf and wellness getaway over walkable access to the old city. Multiple pools, a kids' pool area and tennis courts round out the grounds, giving families and groups a wide spread of activities without leaving the estate.
