Tangier | Morocco

Villa Mabrouka

What to Expect

Perched on the clifftops of Tangier, Villa Mabrouka feels like stepping into a private Mediterranean home. Once the beloved retreat of Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Bergé, the beautifully restored villa is surrounded by lush gardens, sea views and quiet corners where time seems to slow down. Inside, handcrafted Moroccan details meet timeless European elegance, creating spaces that feel both refined and deeply inviting. With just twelve rooms, every stay feels intimate, elegant and wonderfully unhurried.

Beyond the gardens, Tangier is waiting to be explored. Wander through the whitewashed streets of the Kasbah, browse colourful markets, stop for mint tea overlooking the Strait of Gibraltar or watch fishing boats drift in and out of the harbour. Back at Villa Mabrouka, evenings are best spent dining beneath the trees as the scent of jasmine fills the warm air.

Once the private home of Yves Saint Laurent and Pierre Bergé, now transformed into an intimate boutique hotel.
