Neighbourhood guide

Where to live in Marrakech?

Each neighbourhood has its own character. Here are our pointers for choosing where to buy, rent or invest.

Medina

The historic heart of Marrakech, a UNESCO World Heritage Site: alleys, souks, Jemaa el-Fna square and riads hidden behind their walls.

The city’s modern centre: lively avenues, shops, cafés, galleries and restaurants, a few minutes from the Medina.

An elegant, leafy district between Gueliz and the Medina, known for its grand hotels, restaurants and residences with pools.

North-east of the city, thousands of palm trees shelter luxury villas, golf courses and peaceful guesthouses.

South of the Medina, near the famous Agdal gardens: a growing residential district with recent residences and shops.

Towards the south-east and the Atlas mountains: beautiful villas on large plots, with views of the snow-capped peaks in winter.

A sought-after residential area built around its golf course, with villas in gated estates.

West of the centre, a quiet residential area of villas and small residences, close to Gueliz.
