Golf residences
Villas and apartments on the greens, in secure estates
Marrakech has around a dozen golf courses, and many of them are surrounded by residential estates: villas, townhouses and apartments overlooking the greens. Royal Golf, Al Maaden, Amelkis, the Palmeraie, or further south along the Amizmiz road: each estate has its own character.
The lifestyle
Living in a golf residence means calm and greenery above all. Estates are gated and guarded day and night, gardens are maintained, and there is often a clubhouse, a restaurant, a pool or a spa. Even if you don’t play golf, you enjoy the space and the open views, often all the way to the snow-capped Atlas in winter.
The properties
The range goes from apartments with terraces to large contemporary villas on the edge of the course. Properties are generally recent, well built and sold with a land title. In return, service charges are higher than elsewhere, covering security, landscaping and the estate’s services.
Who is it for?
It is the choice of people who want a worry-free second home: you lock the door and the estate looks after the house. Golfers obviously feel at home, and rentals work well during the golf season, from autumn to spring, with a loyal European clientele.
My advice
Compare the estates before you compare the houses. Service charges, quality of management, condition of the course and rental rules vary a lot from one golf to another, and they will shape the resale value of your property.
