The staff:
The friendly staff at La Pivoine ensure the perfect Moroccan experience. Rabia is the caretaker and cook, and lives elsewhere on the property, as does Allal the night watchman. Rabia specialises in Moroccan and French cuisine - she will be full of ideas for what you might like to eat, or you can tell her exactly what you do want. There is a driver to pick you up at the airport, and drop you off there (both are included in the rental rate) who can also act as your taxi-driver around Marrakech or tour guide for the day.
What is included:
Included in the rental rates are: - airport transfers by taxi; house cleaning, meal service and laundry; bedding, towels and bath robes; breakfast, lunch and dinner except two dinners or lunches each week to be agreed upon with Rabia the housekeeper; local red, white and rosé wines, and aperitifs (only champagne will be charged extra). If you are only renting the second house, only breakfast is included, and the weekly rate comes down to 1250 euros.
The furnishings and decoration:
This is called luxury accommodation, not just because of the grandeur of the gardens and buildings, but also the furnishings and decorations, down to the lighting, bathroom fittings and trinkets. Everything is of the highest quality, designed for a very exacting owner who uses La Pivoine from time to time and does not want to be reminded of the imperfections of the world.
