Fodor's Expert Review Les Deux Tours

Circuit de la Palmeraie, Marrakesh, Marrakesh-Safi, Morocco

The Two Towers has a magnificent garden setting with accommodation in neoclassical villas designed by architect-owner Charles Boccara who is usually on-site to chat with guests. Rooms and suites are all spread across six individual villas, each with a patio or small pool (there's a fee to heat the pool). These four- and five-room villas can be booked for either exclusive use, which is ideal for a large family or group of friends, or shared with other guests, booking just the rooms required. There are also eight exclusive pool residences with a huge bedroom, lounge, and private pool or Jacuzzi. The main building houses the restaurant, communal lounges, a games room, and a cozy winter bar complete with open fire, but the overall feeling pervading throughout is one of faded charm. Room sizes vary enormously, and the standard "classic" rooms are cramped and stuffy—it's worth upgrading to a junior suite. The main pool is surrounded by lawns, a terrace, and plenty of loungers.
