Dar Amna, the house of peace: the story behind the name

In Morocco, a dar is a house, a home. Amna evokes safety and peace. Dar Amna is the house of peace: a place where you can put everything down and simply live.

A home, not a hotel

Dar Amna was never meant to feel like a hotel. There is no reception desk and there are no other guests: just a private villa on a 7,000 m² estate of olive groves and gardens, entirely yours for the length of your stay, 25 minutes from Marrakech.

A gallery of Moroccan soul

Inside, the 500 m² villa unfolds over three bright floors filled with authentic Berber pieces, French and Moroccan paintings and traditional furniture: an antique carved door in the hallway, Berber pottery in the lounge, a brass lantern above the staircase, and bathrooms dressed in emerald, honey, chocolate and sand-toned zellige.

Peace, in practice

Peace is also about being looked after without being disturbed. Our housekeeper is on site every day, our guard watches over the estate 24/7, and everything else, from a private cook to airport transfers, can be arranged before you arrive.

At Dar Amna, you are not just booking a villa. You are finding your peace.
