Dar Yasmine Médina Marrakech: 5-Bedroom Coastal Retreat with Heated Pool and Tennis Court

This exceptional luxury villa rental Oualidia invites you into a world of coastal elegance on Morocco’s unspoiled Atlantic shore. Dar Yasmine Médina Marrakech stands behind traditional whitewashed walls in the heart of Oualidia, where palm-shaded courtyards, graceful arched walkways, and hand-laid tile floors set a tone of effortless sophistication. With five beautifully appointed bedrooms accommodating up to ten guests, this property delivers an authentic Moroccan living experience enriched by resort-calibre amenities, from a heated swimming pool and private tennis court to an on-site spa.

Inside Dar Yasmine Médina Marrakech

Step through the entrance gate and the gentle hum of the village fades into birdsong and the soft rustle of palms. The ground floor opens with a generous living and dining room that frames panoramic views of the garden and swimming pool through wide glass doors. Natural light washes across polished cement floors and hand-carved plaster detailing, while deep sofas dressed in locally woven fabrics encourage long, unhurried afternoons. An open fireplace anchors the seating area, ready to fill cool winter evenings with warmth and amber glow.

Two of the five bedrooms occupy the ground floor, each with its own private bathroom fitted with walk-in showers and artisan zellige tilework. The first bedroom features a generous 160 cm double bed and opens directly onto a private terrace where morning coffee comes with views of swaying bougainvillea. The second ground-floor bedroom, with a 140 cm double bed, also benefits from its own terrace and en-suite shower room. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms continue the aesthetic of understated luxury. Expect hand-selected antique furnishings, wrought-iron light fixtures, and soft cotton linens in every room. Each upper bedroom is paired with a private bathroom, ensuring complete comfort and privacy for every guest. Throughout the house, traditional Moroccan craftsmanship meets contemporary convenience: air conditioning keeps every room cool during summer months, while the considered layout allows groups to share communal spaces without sacrificing personal retreat.

Outdoor Spaces and Living

The real magic of this luxury villa rental Oualidia unfolds outdoors. A central courtyard garden, lush with olive trees, jasmine hedges, and flowering cacti, surrounds the heated swimming pool. Sun loungers line the poolside terrace, positioned to catch the Atlantic breeze that drifts in from the coast just one kilometre away. A shaded pergola beside the pool offers a dining area for al fresco meals, while a built-in barbecue station makes grilling the day’s fresh catch a daily ritual.

Beyond the pool area, a private tennis court provides an energetic counterpoint to long days of relaxation. The spa and sauna facilities allow guests to unwind after a match or a morning surf, with treatment options that draw on traditional Moroccan hammam traditions. Private parking within the property walls means arriving and departing is effortless, and the enclosed grounds give families with young children peace of mind to let little ones explore freely. As evening settles over the countryside, the garden fills with the scent of orange blossom, and the sky above Oualidia turns a deep, luminous pink.

Exploring Oualidia and Beyond

Oualidia occupies a privileged stretch of Morocco’s Atlantic coastline between Casablanca (approximately 190 km to the north) and Essaouira (roughly 200 km to the south). The town is celebrated for its spectacular lagoon, a crescent of calm turquoise water sheltered by golden sandbanks where flamingos gather at dawn. From Dar Yasmine Médina Marrakech, the beach is barely a kilometre’s walk, and the lagoon’s famous oyster farms are even closer. Pull up a chair at one of the waterfront stalls and taste oysters harvested just metres away, paired with a squeeze of lemon and crusty Moroccan bread.

Within easy walking distance you will find the town’s weekly souk, local bakeries turning out msemen flatbreads, and charming cafés where mint tea flows freely. Surfing enthusiasts can head to the exposed beach breaks south of the lagoon, while birdwatchers will find the wetlands teeming with migratory species throughout spring and autumn. For a day trip, the fortified Portuguese town of El Jadida (about 75 km north) offers UNESCO-listed cisterns and rampart walks, and the artistic hub of Essaouira rewards a full day of exploration with its medina galleries, wind-carved ramparts, and world-class seafood.

Perfect for Families and Groups

With five en-suite bedrooms spread across two floors, Dar Yasmine Médina Marrakech gives every couple or family unit their own private quarters while keeping the group connected through spacious communal areas. The heated pool is suitable for children, and the enclosed garden provides a safe environment for younger guests to play. A tennis court on site keeps older children and teenagers entertained, while the spa offers parents a chance to decompress. The fully equipped kitchen supports self-catering, but the proximity of Oualidia’s restaurants means you can easily alternate home-cooked meals with evenings out sampling the town’s legendary seafood. The barbecue area becomes a natural gathering point each evening, where stories from the day’s adventures are shared over grilled fish and Moroccan salads. This luxury villa rental Oualidia is equally well suited to multi-generational family holidays and milestone celebrations among close friends.
