Social Responsibility
Villas Des Orangers supports Centre Fiers Et Fort, a centre for street children based in Tamesloth, 15 km from Marrakech. The centre provides accommodation, education and work for 30 street children and has helped over 400 children to date.
When to go?
The Villa is open year round, except for 3 weeks in July and August, when the heat in any case makes Marrakech hard work. The cool, clear weather makes winter a good time to come - a Christmas shopping spree, for example! Bear in mind when Ramadan is...
