Tangier, Morocco
Relaxing in the Opulent Gardens by the Sea
Our time in Tangier was memorable. We dined on Moroccan cuisine at the Kasbah, with the sea as our backdrop. We wandered through the Medina, where we met The Man from Tangier and Faud. Faud, a talented artisan, shared his story of following his mother’s creative path and creating beautiful garments for his clients and brides-to-be. He is currently making a caftan for a wedding in the softest lavender hues, in floral silk with an embroidered overlay. We also found a stunning antique tagine and decorative pieces for our home in New Jersey, adding a piece of Tangier to our lives. The captivating views of the sea, the mouthwatering aromas of Moroccan cuisine, the vibrant tapestry of culture, and the friendly, warm Moroccans made this trip unforgettable.

Our stay at Villa Mabrouka was straight out of a dream, one you may never wish to wake up from, where your every desire is cared for. From the most delicious Moroccan cuisine to gorgeous, lush gardens, a serene pool, and a rooftop terrace overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, the country of Spain, and the Pillars of Hercules, it's an unforgettable experience. The impeccable front desk concierge will assist you in arranging your day trips and dinner plans. We enjoyed a pre-dinner sunset cocktail time on the rooftop with the call to prayer, a favorite time of day. Dine on the premises in a beautiful space, relax by the pool with a good book, and unwind at the spa and hammam.

Stay: Villa Mabrouka
“A haven of privacy set in a lush, expansive landscape, within easy walking distance of the ancient, bustling Kasbah and Medina of Tangier - ‘The White City.’
Immersed in one of Tangier’s largest and most enchanting gardens, the intimate 12-room Villa Mabrouka is a haven of tranquility, located in a beautiful 1940s modernist house offering sweeping views of verdant green, a blue sky, and a glittering sea at every turn. Villa Mabrouka is a place to spend time taking in the beauty of everything around you.
Located only moments from the bustle of Tangier’s Kasbah and Medina, once through Villa Mabrouka’s heavy carved wooden doors and into its lush, vibrant gardens – constantly filled with birdsong and gentle breezes – you are transported immediately into the feeling of paradise.
Transformed from a former private home into a cosseting, elegant hotel by the esteemed British designer Jasper Conran, Villa Mabrouka is the perfect escape, whether you're spending time alone or with a group of family and friends. The villa, with its two crystalline swimming pools, comprises three restaurants, a rooftop coffee / cocktail bar, and three beautifully decorated garden pavilions ideal for private dining.
