Fodor's Expert Review Palais Namaskar

You'll feel like a celebrity when you arrive at this dreamy resort, which opened to great acclaim in 2012 in Marrakesh's Palmery. Set among 12 acres of manicured gardens and shallow ponds, guests cross a moat to enter their accommodations, which range from spacious deluxe rooms centered on a courtyard garden to suites (some with fireplaces, terraces, or private pools), villas with private gardens, and three stately, multibedroom palaces. All are top-of-the-line with DVD-integrated plasma TVs, Nespresso machines, rain showers, and the plushest bedding, plus chic, contemporary interiors. On-site dining includes a French-influenced gourmet restaurant, a stylish lounge for tea, and Nomad Bar for cocktails. There's a central swimming pool for guests and visitors close to the restaurant as well as a shallow pool for children. The spa offers a range of divine massage and beauty treatments.
