Located on the road to Ouarzazate at 15 km from Marrakech, Villa Ochre struggles to conceal its beautiful rurality. Beautiful watchful Palm trees surround its imposing pisé / rammed earth silhouette. Its gardens extend from its dry juniper-lined walls to the edge of the snow-capped Atlas Mountains. At the end of a majestic alley lined with olive trees, the villa emerges from a green carpet alternating vegetable garden, orchard, mani- cured lawn and desert moor, standing there with pride as this land of contrasts with the insolent beauty welcoming it.

Villa Ochre is intended to be both friendly and welcoming, even with its undeniably minimalist cathedral-like design. More than a pure and impressive architectural statement, it remains a humble family home brimming with surprises, led by a team who has been dedicated to its success since the very beginning. Designed and conceived as such, with its multiple living rooms and its spectacular dining room, its almost monastic row of interlocking bedrooms and their commu- nal shower room, its impressive master suite on the first floor and its independent guest pavilions, Villa Orche will easily accommodate all arrangements and possibilities for family gatherings and friends.

Cuisine is prepared by Houriya, the resident cook, or guest chefs, whether French in spirit, Moroccan at heart or simply international, using seasonal and organic products, honey and olive oil from the land, and ingredients picked in the garden. Guests can enjoy the farm animals, ping pong, pétanque or the spa with its traditional hammam nestled in the garden.
