Dar Ayniwen Villa Hotel in Marrakech
A private hideaway in the Palmeraie only twenty minutes drive from the centre of Marrakech. Dar Ayniwen is a sumptuous Arab-Andalusian villa hotel set in five acres of beautiful gardens, strewn with palm, orange, olive, oleander and fig trees. Inside, it is a maze of tradition, where at every turn there are arches, lanterns and alcoves.

Furnishings are a mixture of home-style comforts with an eclectic assortment of fine antiques amassed by the owner, plus discreet mod-cons (air conditioning, CD players, mini-bars, safes and cable TV).
The heated pool is hard to resist, and at night, when adorned by lantern-light, the effect is stunning. There are two dining rooms (Moroccan and European). There is also a living room with fireplace, hammam and sauna.
Guests are looked after by an attentive staff with 24-hour room service. There's also a private office (with fax, computer and internet) for those who find it hard to remain incommunicado.
During your stay a house car with driver is available for local travel (free of charge), for instance to take you to dinner or to spend the afternoon at Jamaa Lafna (the main square in Marrakech).

Feedback and reviews
We had a great time, despite the mixed weather. We thought that Dar Ayniwen was lovely - perfect for families, with lovely, thoughtful staff, who couldn't do enough for us. The room was also great - the kids loved having their own personal jacuzzi and also loved having a real fire lit for them at their bedtime! JC in November 2008
Our stay was superb. e cannot think of a single negative. The house is delightful and our room was spacious and airy. The grounds are beautiful and idyllic at night. The staff are simply wonderful. Nothing is too much for them and they were fantastic with our two young children. The food was excellent. A-M.B. in june 2008
