Villa Mabrouka

"Villa Mabrouka, perched high above Tangier with sweeping views of the Strait of Gibraltar, is an iconic retreat with a fascinating history. Originally the beloved home of legendary fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent and his partner Pierre Bergé, the villa became a private haven for artistic inspiration and exquisite gatherings. Purchased in 2019 by British designer Jasper Conran, Villa Mabrouka has since been lovingly restored, blending the timeless elegance of its original architecture with a modern, refined touch that respects its storied past. Today, this boutique hotel boasts beautifully curated rooms, lush gardens, and serene spaces that embody Tangier’s unique blend of European and Moroccan influences. The hotel’s dining experience is equally notable, with multiple restaurants that are open for both lunch and dinner. Guests can enjoy a range of dishes that celebrate local flavors and Mediterranean cuisine, all served in intimate indoor settings or alfresco on terraces overlooking the gardens and sea. From the enchanting gardens to the thoughtful design in each room, Villa Mabrouka invites guests to experience a piece of Tangier’s artistic and cultural heritage in a truly luxurious setting. Whether you’re here for a midday meal under the sun or an evening dinner surrounded by the glow of candlelight, Villa Mabrouka offers an unforgettable experience steeped in history and elegance."
