“Enchanting stone built Moroccan Beldi farmhouse 20 minutes outside Essaouira with a meticulously designed interior. Owned by ex-New York fashion stylist, there are 7 lovely bedrooms, a collonaded indoor Roman-style pool and plenty of space to relax - in and outdoors. Perfect for a romantic getaway.”

Hotel Review

The off-piste location, the stillness, the atmosphere, the comfort and the warm welcome - everything about Villa Anouk is delightful. Set in the undulating countryside outside Essaouira, even a SatNav will have difficulty pinpointing this idyll - which makes this place even more appealing. It’s owned by the vibrant ex-fashionista native New Yorker, Anouk who’s meticulous attention to detail informs a well thought out, chic neutral interior infused with feminine touches - subtle lighting including lanterns, tea lights and iron candelabras, textured wool and sheepskin rugs, sequinned cushions, vases of white flowers everywhere, decorative mirrors and shawl/blankets for cold evenings. Bedrooms are havens behind carved cedar wood doors with thuya beamed ceilings, artisanal wooden beds and private terrace. Guests are invited to have breakfast at a long communal dining table or one of the individual tables in the salon. Delicious dinners are also on offer. It has the feel of a private home.

Villa Anouk is a rambling farmhouse of pale peach-coloured stone with terracotta floors and fairytale views across miles of gently undulating hills out to a misty haze that is the Atlantic Ocean.
