Casablanca or Marrakech: where to settle?

It is the question most families ask: Casablanca or Marrakech? Both cities offer a remarkable setting, but answer different expectations.

Casablanca, the Atlantic metropolis

The country’s economic capital, Casablanca appeals through its energy, its corniche, its well-regarded international schools and its proximity to the ocean. The districts of Aïn Diab, Californie and Anfa, and the Dar Bouazza coast, suit working families and school-age children especially well.

Marrakech, the art of living

Marrakech keeps a gentler rhythm. The Palmeraie — its golf courses, palaces and gardens — makes it a favoured address for second homes, retirees, and those seeking year-round sun and serenity.

Casablanca for the daily life of an active family; Marrakech for light and time regained.

How to choose

If schooling and professional life come first, Casablanca often prevails. If you are after a sanctuary, a dry climate and an exceptional residence in peace, Marrakech has few equals. Many of our clients end up with a foothold in each.
