Fairmont Royal Palm Marrakech

Fairmont Royal Palm Marrakech offers 134 suites and villas, all finished to a five-star standard and designed with space and comfort in mind. Even the entry-level Junior Suites come with separate lounges, large bedrooms and private terraces or balconies, so you're not cramped after a day on the course. Every room includes complimentary WiFi, flat-screen TV with satellite channels, minibar, telephone with international dialling and luxury bathroom amenities as standard.

Room and suite categories range from Junior Suites through to Presidential Suites, with the top-end options offering additional square footage, enhanced views and extra services such as valet, 24-hour room service and a kitchenette for those who fancy preparing their own meals. For families, the Luxury Family Suites are a sensible pick if you want extra space and child-friendly touches, making them a smart choice for anyone travelling with youngsters on a family golf break.

At the top end, the Prince Villas sit away from the main hotel building and offer complete privacy. Each villa comes with its own garden, private swimming pool, fully equipped kitchen and even a private hammam, so you can unwind in total seclusion after your round.

Three restaurants cover the dining, each with its own character. Al Ain overlooks the golf course and serves Moroccan cuisine rooted in Arab, Berber and Moresque traditions. The menu is refined without being fussy, and the terrace is a great spot for lunch or dinner with views across the fairways.

The Capricci focuses on authentic Italian cooking and offers several dining formats, from table d'hôte to private lounges screened by Mashrabiya panels, plus the Captain's Table for larger groups. It's versatile enough to suit a romantic dinner or a lively evening with friends.

For something lighter, L'Olivier sits poolside and serves contemporary dishes in an al fresco setting. Think tuna tartare with olive oil, lime and ginger, red mullet fillets with pesto, and beef carpaccio with truffle oil. It's relaxed, fresh and ideal for a midday break.

Le Bar is a great spot for an evening drink, often with live music and a sushi menu alongside the usual cocktails and spirits. If you'd rather stay in, 24-hour room service covers breakfast, lunch and dinner across all suites and villas.

The spa is run in partnership with Maison D'Asa & Natura Bissé, a leading name in beauty and cosmetics, and the design mirrors a Moroccan palace. Facilities include hammams, sauna, jet shower, swimming pool, private garden and ice bath, with treatments ranging from the signature Supreme Rose Massage to a full menu of facials, body wraps and therapies.

Beyond the spa, the resort offers a semi-Olympic swimming pool, fitness centre, four tennis courts, squash court, two padel tennis courts, table tennis and a yoga studio. All sports centre activities are free for resort guests, with additional charges only for private classes and equipment hire.
