Find a beguiling mix of traditional charm and contemporary chic at Dar Toozween. Inspired by classic Moroccan decor, this Marrakech vacation rental blends old and new for a feeling of thoughtful luxury. Better still, its idyllic countryside setting offers a honeymoon from the everyday, with a tropical garden in the foreground and the snow-capped Atlas Mountains in the distance.

The villa is set on nearly two and a half acres dotted with palms and an olive grove, and feels like your own private escape. Spend long, leisurely days swimming in the pool, reading in the loungers, challenging friends and family on the pétanque court and trying out local produce on the barbecue, then linger under the stars at the al-fresco dining area. Your holiday here includes the services of a cook, maid, butler and gardener, so there's no excuse not to relax.

Dar Toozween will intrigue around every corner, from an open-plan living and dining room with a library on the mezzanine level to an intimate media room and a fully equipped eat-in kitchen. The details range from the dramatic-large-scale artwork and sculpture, rich jewel tones of red and turquoise-to the subtle-carved panels and geometric-patterned tile.

Intricately painted doors lead to the bedroom suites, of which there are five with king beds and en-suite bathrooms. Two of the bedrooms open directly to the garden, one has its own balcony and one is a master suite with its own terrace. The fifth bedroom is part of a family suite and has a mezzanine level with a second king bed and three twin beds.

Though the villa feels like a getaway from the real world, it's only a short drive from two golf resorts, the Ryads Al Maaden and the Argan, as well as downtown Marrakech, where you can explore the World Heritage-designated medina, bargain for everything from carpets to spices in the souks, or pause in one of the gardens for a quiet moment.
