The villa met all our expectations and then some! It is most luxurious and very comfortable. The furnishings are all very high quality. The layout suited us extremely well with three bedrooms upstairs and three more downstairs. A key highlight has to be the pool which is immense at 15m square. Everybody spent substantial time in it and was a great place to be when the outside temperature got rather high. Because we had booked half board, we had a house manager who lived in plus a daily cook and cleaning all of whom were friendly and really helpful. The food was terrific, very Moroccan which everybody enjoyed - we ate outside every evening. The staff at Abalya were also incredibly helpful with booking trips and taxis as the villa is at least 20 minutes from the centre of Marrakesh. Altogether, it was a trip to remember for all the right reasons.
