Riad Gypsum - Seven Bedroom Villa, Sleeps 15 | Villa in Marrakech

Tucked at the heart of the incredible Medina area of Marrakesh, Riad Gypsum is a spectacular, traditional home for up to 15 guests, complete with a hammam, spa and rooftop terrace!
An unassuming entrance leads you through an intricate doorway and into a dazzling courtyard at the centre of the home itself, with an enormous pool and a seating area, with elaborated first-floor balconies surrounding it. There are several living spaces throughout the property, all wonderfully designed, with a range of comfortable sofas and relaxed areas, including alfresco living on the roof terrace! What’s more, in addition to all the usual living spaces of a conventional riad, there’s even a hammam and spa for your exclusive enjoyment. This traditional hammam is the perfect place for a little relaxation, allowing the heat to cleanse your skin and revitalise you, while we will be more than happy to arrange for a masseuse to visit the villa to make the most of this spa room. On-site staff are available for advice and information, to arrange tours, dinner parties, and much more, as well as housekeeping, while there’s also an on-site chef to prepare breakfast for you each day.
The riad has 4 independent double bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms and 1 suite with a unique access door, including 3 additional bedrooms (2 double and 1 triple) and 2 bathrooms. Apart from the canopy room, which always has a double bed, all other six rooms can be arranged as either double or twin beds according to guests' preference. Each suite is complete with not only sumptuous bedrooms but also cosy living rooms in some, and many feature intricately decorated ceilings, including mesmerising domes, ornate chandeliers and more. Rich red and browns and mostly wood furniture fill each space with warmth and beauty. And what’s more – each suite includes a characteristic Berber-style ensuite bathroom, so you can enjoy privacy and comfort throughout.
When it’s time to venture out and into the sunshine, head up to this incredible roof terrace for a wonderful spot for a little sunbathing and socialising. This is the most spacious and elegant of the living areas in the villa, with a chill-out area bursting with day beds, plush sofas, quaint coffee and dining tables and the all-important sun loungers! And of course, like all traditional riads, there is a perfectly private courtyard at the heart of the home which you can spend a little time in enjoying the relative coolness of the shade and of course in this wonderful pool!
What was once a stop-off for hippies and hedonists has emerged through centuries of global visitors to become an unmissable capital of African tourism, with an alluring mix of North African culture and modern delights. Get lost in the maze-like Medina, splash-out in the souks, indulge in the extraordinary cuisine in any of the hundreds of food stalls and be sure to chat with the friendly locals during your time in Marrakesh! It’s all part of the experience!

Location:
Right in the bustling heart of the city, Riad Gypsum is a haven of peace and tranquillity in the most interesting location: the Medina! In 1985, Marrakesh’s Medina, the densely packed, walled medieval city at the heart of the modern city, was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and once you’ve wandered its charming, vibrant streets, you’ll understand why. Colour and chaos burst from every corner!
You will enjoy days of strolling around the fascinating, sensory-overloading city of Marrakesh, otherwise known as the ‘Red City’, brimming with mosques, palaces and gardens and each as magnificent as the last! Indeed, the saying goes that, back in the 1930s, Winston Churchill described Marrakesh as ‘the last paradise on Earth’! And we can see why!
Lose yourself in the maze of vendors, food stalls and entertainers – with snake charmers, acrobats and fortune-tellers all showing off their talents and charms! And for the tamer holiday-maker, worry not – the chaos is interspersed with luxury spas, coffee shops, and high-end restaurants if you just want a moment of calm in this mad city! Do as the locals do and unwind at a hammam – it’s how they’ve coped for hundreds of years.
And if ever you decide it’s a little too hot in the city, you need only venture a few miles out to the cooler heights of the mountains! Northern Africa’s highest peak, Mount Toubkal, is just a short distance away, enveloped in miles and miles of stunning mountains that are simply perfect for a hike. As well as the mountains, just a 20-minute drive away from the villa you will find some of the best golf courses in Marrakesh: the Amelkis Championship Golf course and the Marrakesh Royal Golf Club!
From your base in this fabulous villa, you can take many unforgettable day trips, and not only to the city! Morocco itself is a fascinating country with many beautiful places to visit – and with the breath-taking Atlas Mountains inland, and both an Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea coast, you’re guaranteed some incredible scenery wherever you decide to venture! And with a mesmerising mix of Berber, Arabian and European cultural influences, the country is as diverse as it is beautiful.
