About this villa rental
The Villa is a charming oriental style villa in the most prestigious area of Marrakech "Amelkis", in the heart of the O'Liveraie residential area, a few hundred meters from the clubhouse of the Amelkis golf course. Showcased on channel 5 ‘Rich Holiday, Poor Holiday’ https://www.my5.tv/rich-holiday-poor-holiday/season-1/episode-1-eceb4990-c890-48d7-a5a7-ceb7707b6143
If you want to wake up to stunning mountain views then this Villa is for you. The sound of birdsongs is the usual wake-up call with the sun coming up over the mountains & flooding the rooms with light.
The house is very attractive for a holiday with family & friends or Golfers thanks to its manicured private garden running around the property, a large swimming pool, 3 terraces for outdoor lunch & dinner as well as sun lounging.
The villa has been lovingly furnished with modern & antique pieces sourced in Morocco. All the furniture has been sourced locally & is a mix of antique & modern to reflect the workmanship found in Morocco.
The secluded private garden is filled with birdsong & colourful plants with lawned areas on which to relax. Sun-loungers & Straw umbrellas allow you to relax in the sun, a large table & chairs invite you to enjoy our Traditional in house Moroccan meals. A bespoke fountain created in Morocco plays in the garden.
The front door opens into a large open welcoming gallery with a water fountain & all the living & bedrooms leading off to either side.
All bedrooms have air-conditioning.
The sitting & dining rooms, although open plan have a working open fireplace.
The sitting & bedrooms have floor to ceiling windows which open out onto the terrace areas with those spectacular views of the mountains.
The kitchen is modern & has all mod cons including a coffee making machine, microwave, citrus squeezer & toaster.
We have supplied enough cutlery, crockery & glassware to meet your daily needs.
The house has 6 bedrooms 5 of which have en suites. We have supplied the villa with sufficient linen, duvets, pillows, towels to suit all needs from sun-bathing & hair-towels to bath sheets & hand towels.
We have anticipated the changes in weather, YES it does get cold in the winter months, so there are throws for your comfort & convenience.
At night, there is no light pollution so the sky is very dark & the stars feel so close that you could almost pick them out of the sky. It is not uncommon to watch your own spectacluar shooting star show while enjoying a glass or two of wine.
On your arrival you will receive traditional Moroccan Mint Tea!
For transfers to & from the airport, we can recommend our good friend Ismail who runs Belmandani Tours he & his competent drivers & modern Mercedes Viano Vito vehicles can be relied on to get you to & from villa in & around Marrakech or further afield to explore Morocco to the full. He is completely trustworthy & speaks several languages including Spanish, English & French. The heart of Marrakech which feels like a world away with is vibrant Medina & lifestyle is only just 10 mins drive from the villa.
Morocco offers a myriad of things to do from the total "not doing anything" to let's go zip-riding or hang-gliding, golf or even skiing. So if you are adventurous or more cautious there is always something to keep you busy. The moods of the mountains are constantly changing ranging from the snow topped peaks in the winter months through to massive thunderstorms with great flashes of lightening, from the bright green of spring to the deep reds of the summers. The earth coloured Berber villages nestling into the mountainsides are barely visible to the naked eye but they are all around clustered onto the steepest slopes. The Berber people themselves are incredibly friendly & delightful. Make friends with them & you will be invited into their homes to meet their families & learn about their lives. But why restrict yourselves to just one area, break your visit into two destinations & spend time in the bustle of Marrakech or by the seaside at Essouira or Meknes the fertile area that produces fruit, vegetables, wine & roses. Or even visit the desert & take a camel ride, Quad biking & spend time in a Berber tent. There is so much to try and discover in this amazing country.
The Villa is Situated on Amelkis golf course, less than 5 mins away from Royal Golf & Al Maaden golf.

The villa, nestled in a gated community, stunned with its gorgeous architecture and luxurious en-suites, though it had issues like cockroaches and poor nighttime lighting. The real problems began with the host. Promised birthday decorations weren't set up upon arrival, and despite confirming no extra charge for a sixth guest, the host demanded more money last minute. Our stay was marred by repeated theft from our rooms, and the host's response to our concerns was dismissive, blaming us for not using safes. Now I don’t know about you, but I was at LEAST expecting the host to be Somewhat apologetic about SOMETHING. Instead, he stated that he was on holiday and he (the HOST), can’t be expected to respond to GUEST messages during that time. He also noted that if we suspected that the staff was Stealing from us during our stay, we should have told that same staff to stop stealing from us! He also stated that if we left a bad review, he would be “forced to take action against us.” I was SHOCKED. Shocked! In the 25 years that I have been traveling, staying in hotels, A3bnbs, rental homes, etc, Never have I Ever been treated in such a manner. Imagine telling us that we should have told suspected thieves to stop thieving -- And that we never should have expected that our things would be secure during our stay. Oh, and the HOST can’t be bothered to reply to his paying GUESTS if he’s otherwise occupied. The lack of accountability was appalling, overshadowing the villa's beauty.

The house is very spacious and a great family vacation. We were looking for convenience to golf courses, which Villa Jude has - we could walk to the clubhouse at the Almelkis course, and several others are a short drive - and did not want ot be directly in the medina with a group of 8 that included grandchildren. The house is in a luxury development a little outside the medina, and can be challenging to find on your own, but it is only a 15-20 minute drive to get to the medina or the central part of the new city. The owner was very responsive and made great recommendations for us.
The house has a full-time attendant who lives there and is very helpful and keeps everything clean and organized. Through the owner, we arranged for a cook for breakfast each day and about half the lunches and dinners and she was fabulous and very helpful overall. Also through the owner, we booked Ismail, an independent driver with a van, for the week and he was always available for us, including arranging for guides wherever we needed them. If he is available, I would highly recommend booking him and relying on his services and recommendations. He knows the house and location, works seamlessly with the house attendant and the cook, and was really helpful. The support staff made the week enjoyable and provided the flexibility to do whatever anyone wanted.
We all had a great time and felt very comfortable all week. Thanks so much to the owner and the helpful staff.

Everything was great, but the best part of it was Seeham and Mohammad were extremely helpful and courteous not to mention professional. We want to always see them there when we come. Also the driver you recommended Ismail is amazing. In fact, we invited him to our wedding. In some rooms the AC was an issue, and the lighting was another issue because of the burnt lightbulbs but then again, we understand that you recently had an earthquake, which did some damage to the Villa.

Amazing Stay
We came away for a short break, as a group of 9 ladies to celebrate a hen do. We had a fantastic time and have not stopped talking about how we enjoyed it. The villa is simply stunning and the pool is just gorgeous. A special mention for the in-house catering team, they made us so welcome and relaxed and nothing was too much trouble. We are already hoping to plan a return stay.

Villa Jude is beautiful.
Very pleasant spacious and big.
The staff were absolutely amazing, friendly and smily everyday.
The owner is easy to reach and very helpful.
The location is bit far from the city but easy access. We hired a chauffeur service so we had no problem on going around. They so were super cool. Ask the owner to give you their contact.
My only comment is maybe the menu needs to be changed a bit otherwise I highly recommend this house.. And we are planning to comeback soon👌

Amazing Villa
Communication from booking was excellent, helpful info pack provided.
Met on arrival by Aziz - house guardian who is so helpful. Language barrier an issue but with the help of google we always managed.
The house maid and guardian are always on hand and are always there to help with anything.
The villa is stunning and peaceful and it’s only a 15/20 min ride to the centre.
Highly recommended and will definitely look to return.
Thanks for a great stay.

Good could be better
The property on first impressions is fantastic, but there are a few issues with the upkeep.
Air con in one room not working, plugs, sockets are dodgy. These and other minor gripes could easily be remedied with a little upkeep of the villa.
Staff in site are excellent.

Beautiful and spacious
Very spacious Villa, there were 16 of us family and friends. Villa is on a lovely quiet complex. On hand is the caretaker and a maid, both wonderful, helpful people nothing was too big for them. Pool was enjoyable for all especially the children. Kitchen is huge with all utensils and pots and pans. All rooms were spacious and cleaned everyday. The pool area and pool were cleaned everyday as well.
The only thing we would say is a car is a must as everything is pretty far up-to 30 to 40 minutes walk. Taxi to and from the villa to the supermarket cost 300 dirhams each time.
Want to thank Aziz and Siyam for all their help and hard work and making our stay perfect.

Top choice!
I'm so happy I choose to spend the beginning of my summer at Villa Jude. This home is truly something special. I booked it for my 2 week annual summer trip and had to extend my stay. A place like this makes you never want to return home.
The rooms are extreamely clean and beautifully decorated with up to date contomporary with a Moroccan flare.
Marrakech's weather is fantastic so most of our time was spent under the sun enjoying the massive pool. You'd be surprised how many people can fit in the backyard area!
Between the beautiful villa and all the fun options to do in the city of Marrakech I had a blast. I will definitely be returning next year!

Incredible Villa!
What an amazing place to stay! We were a group of 11 and we had the most amazing time at Villa Jude. The bedrooms are all really spacious (all 11 of us fit in the bathroom of the master bedroom at one point without even noticing!), the décor is beautiful, and its really clean and well-looked after; we couldn't have asked for more!
We opted for catering during our stay (two days full board, two days half board) which was not only delicious but so reasonably priced. Silva (apologies for incorrect spelling) was a great cook and worked really hard throughout our stay. She was happy to provide meals at times that suited us.
I have to mention Moses too, our onsite concierge! He was so helpful making trips to the supermarket for us and was always around to take (many, many) photos for us! Both he and Silva made so much effort to make my birthday special, even decorating the table with flowers on our last day.
We also used a transport company recommended by the Villa (Linaya Transport) who were great, we were ferried around in our mini bus by a great driver who was happy to pick us up whenever we needed.
I cant recommend this Villa enough, we will be back! Thank you again!

This is an exceptionally well decorated villa, the owner has definately put some thought in to the layout and arrangement of the villa. We was here for 4 nights and had an awesome time, a big shout out to Khalid who was there to help us no matter what time of the day it was. The only downside was that the pool is not heated, in the summer this wouldn't matter but as we went in March the water was cold day or night.

Absolutely stunning
Villa Jude is something special. I booked it for a thirty birthday for 5 couples and every single one of them said how jaw-droppingly amazing it was!
The rooms are spacious, clean and decorated impeccably with a mix of modern and authentic Moroccan style.
The weather was absolutely fantastic and we spent most of out days lounging by the pool. The pool is great, clean and inviting.
There's loads to do in Marrakech, we found ourselves having some great nights out and we managed to get a cheap taxi from the golf resort into the centre of the city. You won't be disappointed! Xxx

Stunning luxury
We have a just returned from a stay at 'Villa Jude'. Firstly the place was stunning but very family friendly, very attentive communication re booking, arrival and departure. Excellent value compared to other luxury properties and have already booked to go back next year.

Beautiful Ideallic Villa in stunning location
The villa itself is palatial in size and appearance, with its cleanliness and facilities second to none.
We went for a long weekend (3 families) and there was not a dry childs eye when we left.
The ladies loved the sun, the kids the pool and us the golf!
The staff at the villa are courteous, helpful and cannot do enough for you
Booking was simple too which took all the stress out the break
The rooms are huge and the description of the Villa and the photos don not do it credit.
The Morrocan sunshine helped to make it even more glorious and we'll be back again soon...just maybe for slightly longer this time!

Un séjour exceptionnel
Nous avons loué Villa Jude avec nos enfants et nous y avons passé un superbe séjour. La villa est très agréable et la décoration est à la fois contemporaine tout en gardant ce coté marocain, sans oublier la piscine où nos enfants ont eu beaucoup de plaisir à s'amuser. Je ne voudrais surtout pas oublier le staff qui s'est occupé de nous et de nos enfants du début à la fin. Un grand merci également à la propriétaire pour sa gentillesse, je recommande les yeux fermés cette villa qui est un vrai havre de paix.

Holiday of a life time
The most gorgeous villa and setting. I had the best time away here at Villa Jude. I got a complete home away from home feel.
The staff were so amazing and truly made the stay even more amazing. The setting of the villa is so beautiful and really is quite breathe taking. The interior of the villa is so gorgeous and makes you never want to leave!
Cannot wait to go back next year! Thank you so much for such an amazing memorable time.
