About this property

Luxury, fully staffed villa with magnificent views of Atlas mountains. Sleeps 16

El Goute is a large, traditional Moorish style single storey property. The main house has five bedrooms all with air conditioning. Four of these are double/twin bedrooms with Moroccan style en suite bathrooms and there is a room leading off one of the double bedrooms which would sleep two children. There are three one bedroom garden suites which provide additional accommodation.

It also boasts a spacious garden, 18m heated swimming pool, tennis court, petanque court, basketball/hand ball court, hamman, massage room and terrace with outside dining seating area. The living areas are of a good size and include a European sitting room as well as a Moroccan style sitting room. As you enter the property, you will see the large atrium from which all the rooms lead from. The property is set in its own 30,000 m2 (7 ½ acres) plot which provides privacy and tranquility. We have recently planted an olive grove and an orchard. Wifi and tv ensures that you can still connect to the outside world should you wish.

From the moment you arrive at El Goute, our housekeeper will look after you so that you can relax and unwind. All your food and drink shopping will be done for you and your personal chef will prepare all your meals for you. If you want to venture out we can arrange excursions or trips into Marrakech or further afield. We are perfectly located for trips into the Atlas mountains or the desert city of Ouarzzate.

El Goute is ideal for a family holiday or a place to be enjoyed with friends. Whether you want to use the house as a base for exploring Marrakech and the surrounding areas, or simply relax by the pool and enjoy the magnificent views of the mountains we will do our utmost to ensure you have a 5 star experience. If you want to play golf there are two excellent courses nearby - the Amelkis Championship
Golf Course and the Marrakech Royal Golf course.

The villa is in the countryside just off the the Sidi Abdellah Ghiate road about 13 miles south of Marrakech. We are also able to provide airport transfer and a driver for your stay at an additional cost.

The cost of food and drink is not included in the rental fee and will be additional. A pre-stock for your arrival is available. There are also golf clubs and tennis rackets available to borrow.

Our little slice of paradise
Words can not explain (and pictures can not do justice to) just how beautiful this villa is. I booked El Goute for myself and 9 friends to celebrate my 40th birthday and everything about it exceeded our expectations. Liaising with Sara beforehand should have given me more of a clue as to how wonderful this experience would be as she was so, so helpful about everything! Endless questions about the catering, where to go in Marrakech, how to organise ourselves etc - all patiently and promptly answered. And then we actually arrived and WOW is this place amazing. The grounds and the villa are stunning. The staff are great - fabulous food and nothign was too much trouble for AB to sort. Don't be put off by the distance from Marrakech centre. Yes it is a little way out but we loved coming back to the tranquility and view of the Atlas mountains after our hectic day in the medina. So book it now - I promise you that you won't regret it. Thank you Sara - we will be back! xxx

Incredible family holiday
We visited El Goute in October half term 2018, and can not recommend it more highly. From the very first contact we had with Sara (the owner), nothing was too much trouble. Our party included 3 families with 10 children, and we were beautifully looked after. El Goute is a magical place, with so much to do for adults and children alike. We had a fully catered stay, with everything from Tagines to chicken nuggets - all we had to do was ask! Our host AB, who looks after guests during their stay, also organised a traditional BBQ one night, complete with belly dancers and drummers, which was a fantastic memory for all. We relaxed at the villa taking advantage of all it has to offer - large swimming pool, volleyball court, tennis court, boules area, haman, and epic views of the mountains. In addition, Marrakesh was only a half hour minibus away, and was a chance for the children to experience a different culture under an expert guide - again organised by AB. In short, El Goute ticks all boxes - luxury accommodation in this beautiful country, welcoming adults and children alike. We had a relaxing, interesting, fun filled time, and I cannot recommend it more highly. It is a fantastic ‘villa holiday’ for those wishing to stay put and enjoy the beautiful surroundings, but for those looking for adventure, it is easily found on your doorstep and you will not be disappointed. Thank you to the whole El Goute team, we will be back!

Outstanding Venue, Beautiful Oasis not to be miss
Don't miss out on this one! (if I could give this 6 stars I would) We booked this villa to run out yearly Yoga and fitness retreats @morocyogafit to see our pictures of the villa grounds food and rooms, you won't be disappointed. From the outset transfers all arrange, meal suggestions prior to arrival, some of the best food we have tried in Morrocco prepared by the catering team. The rooms are authentic, Spa & Hammam are excellent, we booked the local massages and scrubs every day all arranged by AB the villa manager, who provides an excellent service. The villa grounds are immense with lots of room to use for sports and relaxation. We will be using this location for further retreats. we look forward to seeing you again very soon.

Magical
From the moment we arrived, we were utterly spoilt. The house is palatial with all the home comforts needed for a perfect holiday. The home cooked food was absolutely delicious and the all the staff couldn't have been more welcoming and helpful. The stunning pool and amazing weather made our stay even more special. I would highly recommend El Goute to anyone who is looking for a holiday/retreat. This is a very special and magical home. Thank you. We look forward to returning next year.

About the host

Hosted by Sara Watson

Host profile image
We have been going on holiday to Morocco for the last eight years and immediately fell in love with the country . From the moment you get off the plane you are transported to a different world, the sounds, the smells, the light, the people simply lift the spirit. We wanted to find a property of our own that could provide a beautiful oasis of calm and tranquility but yet be close enough to the vibrant city of Marrakech which we have come to consider our second home.

Having three children of our own we know that a self catering holiday can sometimes be a busman's holiday so we wanted to offer a service where all your catering needs are taken care of.

Why they chose this property

El Goute is ideal for a family holiday or a place to be enjoyed with friends. Whether you want to use the house as a base for exploring Marrakech and the surrounding areas, or simply relax by the pool and enjoy the magnificent views of the mountains we will do our utmost to ensure you have a 5 star experience. If you want to play golf there are two excellent courses nearby.

The villa can easily accomodate 8 adults and 2 children in total privacy. We can accept smaller parties at a reduced rate as well as for a shorter period. (3 day minimum)

What makes this property unique

You never tire of the majestic view of the Atlas mountains at El Goute. Sitting on the terrace you are transported to another world which is the perfect antidote for escaping our frenetic life.
