Les Deux Tours

Les Deux Tours Overview

First Impressions

Honestly, nothing quite prepares you for the moment you arrive at Les Deux Tours. This five-star luxury retreat sits tucked away in the Palmeraie — that’s the palm grove area about 15 minutes outside Marrakech‘s medina chaos. You know what struck me first? The absolute silence. After the honking and hustling of the city center, stepping into this place feels like entering a different world entirely. The traditional Moroccan architecture here isn’t trying too hard — it just flows naturally with these gorgeous courtyards and that warm, honey-colored stone that seems to glow in the afternoon light.

The Palmeraie Experience

I’ll be honest, staying out in the Palmeraie was one of the best decisions I made. Sure, you’re not walking distance from Jemaa el-Fnaa, but that’s actually the point. This area is where wealthy Moroccans have their weekend homes, and you can see why — it’s all palm trees, luxury villas, and this sense of space that’s impossible to find in the medina. The hotel runs a shuttle service into town (though I’d recommend just getting a taxi), and honestly, coming back each evening to this oasis felt like the perfect escape from Marrakech’s intensity.

Rooms and Luxury Details

My room was actually more like a private sanctuary — these aren’t your standard hotel boxes. The suites here have this wonderful flow between indoor and outdoor spaces, with private terraces that look out over the palm groves. The bathrooms are something else entirely, with these deep soaking tubs and rainfall showers that make you want to linger. What I loved most was how they’ve managed to blend traditional Moroccan design with genuine luxury — think handcrafted tiles and carved wood, but also perfect air conditioning and lighting that actually works for reading.

Dining and Amenities

The restaurant here deserves special mention — they do this incredible Moroccan-French fusion that somehow doesn’t feel forced or pretentious. I mean, when you’re sitting on the terrace at sunset with a tagine that’s been slow-cooked to perfection, you sort of understand why couples rate this place so highly for romantic getaways. The spa is another highlight, offering traditional hammam treatments alongside more contemporary therapies. There’s also a gorgeous pool area where you can actually hear the wind through the palm trees — it’s that peaceful.

Why Guests Love It

Look, I get why this place has such a high rating — it’s that rare combination of authentic Moroccan hospitality and genuine luxury that doesn’t feel manufactured. The staff here seem to genuinely care about your experience, not in that overly rehearsed way, but like they’re actually proud of this place. And the location really is special — you’re close enough to explore Marrakech properly, but far enough away to feel like you’re experiencing the real Morocco, not just the tourist version. It’s the kind of place where you find yourself extending your stay, just because leaving feels like a mistake.
