The Whole Story

Marrakech is a dream; one of the few truly exotic places left on the planet, but much as I love the city and its mad, medieval Medina, I prefer to stay in the Palmeraie – the vast and wild palm grove that stands between the city and the Atlas Mountains. The Palmeraie is beautiful and exotic, and it is quiet. Pin-drop quiet. No traffic, no background noise, not even the faint din of calling to prayer. This beauty and the quiet are amplified in a place like Jnane Tamsna. It is not a hotel, it is a fabulous collection of villas set in the splendour of one of the most beautiful gardens on southern Morocco. Even better, the interiors are as inspiring as the gardens. Both are a result of the proprietors.  He is an acclaimed botanist, she is a renowned decorator and designer. 

Jnane Tamsna is an oasis in the true sense.  A retreat defined by extraordinary beauty and exquisite good taste.  It is the perfect contrast or counterpart to the heady, noisy madness of the Marrakech Medina.
