Next Neighbourhoods: The Road to Amizmiz, Marrakech, Morocco
Stella De Bagneux, CEO of Stella-Gallery, Knight Frank’s Partner in Marrakech, shares her insight on Amizmiz, an upcoming area offering nature, large water reserves, hiking trails, deserts and breath-taking views of the Atlas Mountains
01 March 2021
Why is it up and coming?
This area has attracted the attention of eco-conscious developers. Witness the boho-chic Beldi Country Club (at Km 3), known for its rose garden and trendy craft shops; the Fairmont Royal Palm (Km 11), with 100 Studio-Ko villas already sold and the best spa-golf course in Marrakech; and a 32-hectare farm called Epasym (Km 49), designed around a unique concept focused on respect for nature and the social environment.
My favourite bits
An early round of golf at the Fairmont Royal Palm, followed by lunch under the centenarian pistachio tree at Kasbah Beldi, and then shopping for seasonal fruits at Epasym.
Who’s buying?
The number of buyers has grown since the completion of the first houses at the Royal Palm Private Residences in 2013. Word-of-mouth generated by high-profile early residents has attracted buyers mainly from France, Switzerland and Belgium, but more recently also from the UK.
What will my money buy me?
A three-bedroom villa starts from €950,000, while a five bedroom villa, on the edge of the golf course and with views of the Atlas Mountains, starts at €2.8 million.
