Neighbourhood guide
The Medina
The historic heart of Marrakech, a UNESCO world heritage site of souks, palaces and hidden riads.
Life here is lived inside the riad, around the patio and on the roof terrace. Behind plain walls and wooden doors lie some of the most beautiful houses in Morocco. Buying here means living with history: every riad is unique, and the right restoration can turn it into a family home or a boutique guest house.
Properties
Traditional riads, dars, palaces and boutique guest houses, often to restore.
Ideal for
Lovers of heritage, guest-house investors, second homes.
Good to know
Many medina houses are non-titled (melkia). Check the title, car access and permits before you commit; I help you do it with notaries and architects I trust.
Rental potential
Strong year-round demand from travellers makes the medina the first choice for guest houses and short-term rentals.
