Ennismore, the fastest-growing lifestyle hospitality company, and YAMED, the property development platform of Ynexis Group, Morocco’s foremost real estate investment group, announce the signing of Delano Marrakech Hotel & Residences, a refined, villa-style retreat set within Marrakech’s prestigious resort enclave, marking the brand’s debut in one of North Africa’s most sought-after leisure destinations.
BRESI OVERVIEW:
- Delano Marrakech Hotel and Residences places the brand alongside Miami and Dubai as a cornerstone of its new global chapter, with 130 guestrooms and around 80 villa-style branded residences in one of Marrakech’s most privileged resort settings.
- The site draws on some of Marrakech’s strongest locational assets, with the Medina, Jardin Majorelle, Atlas Mountain views and two renowned golf courses, Royal Golf Marrakech and Amelkis Golf Club, all within reach.
- The first Delano residences outside the United States offer four to six bedroom villas with private pools, a private lobby, lounge, clubhouse, screening room and a full suite of on-demand services including housekeeping, dry cleaning, pet services and a while-you-are-away maintenance package
- Paris Society curates the food and beverage programme across a collection of destination-led venues, with Café Delano anchoring the daytime experience and the Rose Bar bringing Delano’s after-dark identity to Marrakech for the first time.
- For Ennismore, Marrakech extends a North African and Mediterranean arc that already spans Egypt, Turkey, Spain, Italy and France, with further openings confirmed in Greece, Morocco and Madrid reinforcing the strategic logic of the region.

The first Delano residences outside the United States will offer a collection of four- to six-bedroom villas with private pools.
The branded residences will offer an array of bespoke spaces exclusive to homeowners, including a private lobby, lounge, fitness centre, clubhouse, and screening room, delivering a highly curated lifestyle that combines the privacy of a home with the service, culture, and community of a Delano hotel.
In alignment with Delano’s legacy of crafting highly immersive, personalised experiences, a range of tailored shared services such as concierge, valet parking and 24-hour doorman service, will be available to all owners to ensure an effortless, seamless residential experience.
Residents will also be able to enjoy a full suite of on-demand services as needed, including in-residence housekeeping, dry cleaning and laundry, pet services, and a “While You Are Away” maintenance package.
