Stay at The Capaldi
The Capaldi is a luxury, country retreat in the foothills of the Atlas Mountains, 35-40 minutes drive from Marrakesh. The hotel has 23 rooms with nine different room catergories. Set in 4 hectares with olives trees and well-kept gardens, the hotel offers a relaxed environment where everything is individually designed with the hotel guests in mind. Two pools (the smaller one is always heated in winter), an international cuisine restaurant, intimate spa and private cinema are just some of what is available.
The Capaldi’s mission is to make your stay exactly what you would wish for. The rooms have king-size beds as standard, fireplaces (lit on request in the winter months), build-in wardrobes, central heating and en-suite shower/bathrooms – a harmonious combination of rustic country touches, contemporary design and Moroccan influences. Breakfast is served in the communal lounge area by the fireplace, or if preferred on the larger roof terrace overlooking the mountains. There are numerous places for guests to relax, whether by the pool bar, the salon or library.
There are two outdoor covered loggias with firpelaces and other shaded areas to relax in. There is also plenty of room for sunbathing with sunloungers and parasols by the pool areas. All the en-suite bathrooms have showers with Italian fittings and finished in a local polished plaster called ‘tadelakt’. The hotel’s restaurant serves excellent local cuisine, Mediterranean dishes and international specialities. Vegetarian and other dietary requirements are well catered for. The cinema offers free screenings for guests (booking required) and there is a large library of new movies and old classics to choose from. The Cinema is also available for private screenings and presentations.
There are excursions from the hotel, including an excellent half day walk with a local mountain guide, dune buggying, camel-riding and horse-riding. Walks from the hotel can also be arranged to the nearby lake at Lalla Takerkoust.
Base prices are in €Euro: Sterling, USD and Moroccan dirham rates will vary by exchange rate.
