We recently rented Villa Zainab for 3 nights with a group of 8 other girls we can thoughly say we loved it. For the first couple of days we enjoyed the outside space in the sun and most of us went into the Pool it was cold but was lovely after sitting in the sun for awhile.
The breakfast was continental enough to get us started in the morning. The evening we arrived I had arranged in advance a home cooked meal by the housekeeper Nardia, I would recommend the Leg of Lamb and the Tagine all was great food
The villa is really beautiful and very spacious it is well looked after and extremely clean. The location is great as we had a supermarket, chemist literally 25 meters from the Villa. We also found a Pizzeria down the road. We were greated at the Villa by the owner Ngawang who is a really nice gentlemen he gave us a nice warm welcoming and explained to us the places to go and asked if we needed any resturants booking. He also organised the transport to and from the airport which really makes life easy (and also included in the rental cost) . We used the transport services available through the villa to go out at night, Abdul and Yousef were great drivers they would drop us off and we would just call when we were ready to be picked up. The service was prompt, professional and excellent.
I also arranged an afternoon at LES BAINS DE MARRAKECH Spa this is one of the best in Marrakech it was very relaxing and enjoyable. We ate at Le Comptoir and Le Fondouk the food was good in both but the Le Comptoir had good entertainment and the music was good. Watch out for the Le Fondouk this didn’t have Air Con and by the time our meal arrived nobody felt like eating as we were all too hot, but they do have outside tables.
I strongly recommend the rental of the Villa it was good value for money with what comes included and I will defenitely be renting this villa again.
Hope everyone else does too many thanks to all Nicky

Paradisiac Villa
This villa is perfect for families or group of friends. I have personally rented with a group of 7 girls who loved it. The most we have enjoyed is the outside space with the Pool especially when we wanted to stay away from the hectic medina center but still enjoy the sun.
The breakfast was great and the housekeeper was really sweet as although it is normally a continental breakfast in the menu, she has kindly prepared for us some morrocan specialities... really delicious... The villa is really beautiful and so spacious that we didnt feel at anytime living on top of each other. (rented for 5 days so you can imagine :)). The Villa is well looked after and extremely clean.
It is located in one of the nicest part of marrakech "Jardin d'Yves Saint Laurent": yes, the fashionable and memorable French haute couture designer. Furthermore it is a very calm area with a neighbourhood (all beautiful villas around). The location is great as we also had a supermarket, chemist at literally 25 meters from the Villa.
But most of all, the owner of the villa is a really nice gentlemen who gave us a nice warm welcoming and explained to us the places to go. He also organised for us the transport return from the aeroport to the villa which really makes life easy (and included in the rent cost). We also used the transport services available through the villa to go out at night and enjoy the evening. It was really great as the driver stayed with us the whole evening and drove us back whenever we were ready to go home. The service was prompt, professional and just excellent.
I strongly recommend the rental of the Villa because: 1. The owner is a true gentleman; 2. The villa is paradisiac with the outside space (rare to find in center marrakech); 3. The cost of the villa is really reasonable considering the rarety of finding a villa to rent in marrakech center; 4. Walking distance to everywhere (Medina, supermarket, gueliz...); we rarely took a taxi unless we were really really exhausted and that was more because of late nights than sunny and wonderful marrakech; 5. Very spacious and therefore allows privacy when needed; 6. Pool very clean and magical at night with all the lights around; 7. breakfast available and included (so practical to start the day like this) 8. transport service very good and reasonably priced; 9. what else can I say other then I will defenitely rent this villa again. Enjoy the morrocan life style....

A perfect week in Marrakech
This was our family's first trip to Morocco and we were not sure what to expect. Right from the start, we knew we had picked the right place. The house was large, clean, comfortable, and very well appointed. The pool was perfect for all-day and evening swims.
Our host, Ngawang, ensured that we were taken care of from food, to massages, to transportaiton, to tours (both local and remote). He introduced us to an excellent guide, Jamal, who led us on adventures in the Atlas mountains, Berber villages, and even a night of camping in the Sahara. Somehow, our entire family, including our 4, 6, and 7 year old children had a wonderful, unforgettable night in the Sahara, thanks to Jamal.
I cannot recommend this villa more highly. I cannot wait to return.

Most amazing holiday ever
I have to admit I am generally quite lazy when it comes to writing reviews, however there is no way I could pass up the opportunity to review Villa Zainab.
The villa is absolutely beautiful, huge, even at maximum capacity you would still find somewhere to hide away. The decor is stunning - exactly how you would picture the perfect Moroccan paradise. In fact I could wax lyrical about it all day as there are literally no negatives.
The pool is amazing, we were in it at every available opportunity! If you are thinking of booking a villa - this is the one.
The location is fantastic, close enough to be a taxi ride from anywhere you want to be, the western shops of Gueliz or the intoxicating markets and souks of the square. Taxis were literally on our doorstep. If you have found this page you are a lucky person, all 8 of us had the most amazing time of our lives here. Its perfect for any occasion - Ngawang and Nadia were the perfect hosts. Ngawang really took the time to make sure we had the experience of a life time in Marrakech - the Hammam he took us to was the most relaxing, unforgettable experience! All his recommendations were perfect and Nadia's food is the best in Morocco in my opinion!
If you like nightclubs - Marrakech is the place for you, Theatro was the best night out I think I've ever had! We went to Nikki Beach - pricey but totally worth it - if you want to spoil yourselves it is pure luxury. The square is also an experience I will never forget, so vibrant and full of wonderful people, I wanted to buy everything!! We had a belly dancer come to the villa - arranged by Ngawang and was so much fun. Marrakech is without a doubt one of the best places I have ever visited, all of us 8 girls fell in love with it. You have to go to Marrakech and you have to go here, I can promise you, it will be one of the best experiences of your life. I can't thank Ngawang enough for making our time in Morocco so special.

Hen do
8 of us stayed in the Villa at the end of May for my hen do. The weather was beautiful, great company and the Villa was the perfect place for us to stay. So beautifully decorated and more than enough room for us all. We would spend the day lazying by the pool and head up to the sun terrace early evening- glorious!
We had a few meals cooked by Nadia- they were delicious! the lovely smells coming from the kitchen are the only sign that she is there! She really looked after us. Ngawang made our trip! He was very patient will lots of emails from the girls before we arrived trying to arrange surprises for me, including camel riding, shopping, spa treatments, restaurants and even a belly dancer to arrive at the villa and teach us all to dance! Brilliant! We had the best time and mostly down to Ngawang's fantastic advice and organsiation.
I would recommend the Lotus Club- we had a great meal there and a good atmosphere. The villa is in an ideal location far enough away from the hustle and bustle of the centre but only 10 minutes in a taxi. There is a lovely bakery for day time treats just down the road and a conveinience store opposite.
I would definately recommend the villa it is the ideal location and you will be looked after from start to finish. Thanks you so much for our fabulous trip- i will never forget my Marrakesh hen do and hope to return one day!

Wonderful stay !
We were 8 people staying in Villa Zainab beginning of april, and loved the whole week there. we were greeted by Ngawang and Nadia, and they looked after us so well for the whole stay. Nadias food is excellent ! The location of the villa is very good, with short walks to downtown Marrakech and only a few minutes by taxi to the Medina. We spent lots of time outside by the pool, and as temps soared to 35 the pool came in handy! Ngawang also organised excursions to the Atlas mountains (Ourika Valley) and to the coastal town Essaouira. Two different trips and worth the day. Marrakech is a very busy place and very hectic. The Medina and Jemaa-el-Fna is a must ! It was great to come back to the tranquility of the villa after a day and evening there ! One evening we had a belly dancer in the house as a suprise for our 25th anniversary wedding day ! Again organised through Ngawang. Would strongly recommend Villa Zainab !

Villa Zainab
Facilities were excellent with everthing one needed on pre ordering of an evening arrival meal cooked by Nadia was a great bonus.Nadia's cooking was very good and her quiet unassuming presence in the kitchen a pleasure. Overall the villa is well situated away from the hustle and bustle of the city but within easy walking or taxi distance of the main sights Ngawang was a mine of information and recommendations--all of it good.I have no hesitation in recommending this villa to my friends..

We had a pleasant stay in the villa although the weather was rather chilly when we arrived and we had a problem with the hot water which meant no showers for 2 days. after the 3rd day the sun shone and the water problem solved. pity the pool could not have been heated in the same way as we were unable to use it fully, just a paddle! the villa was spacious and very beautiful but care needed with small children as the glass tables in the garden although lovely were a hazard and there are lots of roof spaces are great for a sunny evening but we avoided them with the children. It would have been useful to have a dvd player compatible with uk to help out on those chilly days and eves. nadia was very friendly and helpful but we it would have been nice to have the beds made each day.
All in all a great place to visit and be able to enjoy all the sites. there were excellent restaurants and jamal was very helpful athough a little pricey. seat belts and car seats for children would be helpful too.
Thank you for a lovely stay. the local people were also very friendly and helpful
