VIP Concierge: Eric, Your Personal Event Planner in Marrakech
The difference between a standard stay and a prestige experience comes down to one factor: the quality of organisation. Eric, French owner of Riad Vendôme since 2011, has built an exceptional network of service providers in Marrakech — chefs, musicians, artisans, guides, private drivers — whom he mobilises exclusively for his guests. No subcontracting to agencies: every service is personally supervised by Eric who knows European standards and knows how to insist on them in Marrakech.
Your prestige stay begins before you even arrive. Eric sends you a personalised programme based on your wishes, group composition and the occasion being celebrated. Every detail is anticipated: VIP airport welcome with suited driver, roses and champagne package at the riad, room allocated according to your preferences. This is the discreet, authentic luxury of the historic medina, not the impersonal luxury of a Palmeraie resort.
Premium Services Included in Your Exclusive Hire
The private gourmet dinner
Forget the standard tagine. For prestige stays, Eric brings in a private chef who creates a tailor-made menu blending refined Moroccan gastronomy with international touches. Imagine: pigeon pastilla with caramelised almonds as a starter, rack of lamb with mild spices and date compote as a main, and a dessert with figs and orange. All served around the candlelit pool, with butler service in traditional attire.
Gourmet options include: gala brunch on the rooftop with Atlas views, mechoui barbecue (whole lamb slow-roasted over charcoal for 6 hours), a traditional Moroccan dinner with 7 starter salads, or a Moroccan-French fusion menu. Expect €35 to €75 per person depending on the level of service.
The exceptional hammam and premium treatments
The hammam at Riad Vendôme is an authentic wellbeing space in marble and tadelakt. For the prestige experience, we offer exclusive treatments that go far beyond the traditional scrub: Atlas rhassoul and first-press argan oil ritual, volcanic basalt hot stone massage, Saharan black henna body wrap, Dades Valley rose facial treatment. Our therapists are qualified professionals selected for their expertise.
For groups, Eric organises spa rotations so that everyone can enjoy treatments while others access the pool or rooftop. A full spa package (hammam + scrub + 60min massage) is offered from €65/person for prestige stays.
Premium activities
Marrakech is an exceptional playground for high-end experiences. Eric arranges the following for your groups:
Buggy or quad outing in the Agafay desert — 2h30 of adrenaline in lunar landscapes on Marrakech's doorstep, with a tea break at a Berber camp. From €75/person.
Golf day — Marrakech has 11 courses among Africa's finest (Royal Golf founded in 1927, Amelkis, Al Maaden). Green fee + transfer organised by Eric. From €74/person.
Private 4×4 excursion in the Ourika Valley — Waterfalls, Berber villages, lunch on a terrace overlooking the valley. Private bilingual guide. Full day from €45/person.
Private shopping in the souks — Eric accompanies you personally or sends a trusted guide to bargain the best prices in the souks and you avoid the tourist scams. Carpets, leather, lamps, spices — without the stress of haggling.
Evening show at the riad — Gnaoua musicians (traditional Moroccan trance), belly dancer, fire breather, henna party. Turn your rooftop into a private stage.
Booking the whole riad: direct contract and net rates
To book a whole riad in Marrakech you contract with the owner, not with a reservation platform. Private clients receive a group rate; agencies, tour operators and event planners receive a net rate under a direct contract, with the option of an allotment on recurring dates. Everything beyond the walls — licensed transport, official guides, restaurant tables, activities — is coordinated by our Marrakech DMC desk, so the exclusive hire and the ground programme come from one single point of contact and one invoice.
Why Hire a Private Riad Instead of a Luxury Hotel?
Marrakech has no shortage of 5-star palaces (La Mamounia, Royal Mansour). But groups choosing Riad Vendôme for a prestige experience do so for specific reasons. First, absolute privacy — the riad is entirely yours. No strangers in the corridors, no shared pool, no noise from other guests.
The luxury riad offers an experience large hotels cannot replicate: the feeling of being at home in an exceptional venue, with a French host who meets and exceeds your expectations. For a complete overview of our exclusive-hire packages, see our main page.
Premium Location: Dar El Bacha, the Best District in the Medina
The Dar El Bacha neighbourhood is the historic and aristocratic heart of the medina. The Dar El Bacha palace (now the Confluences Museum) was the residence of Pasha Glaoui, the most powerful man in Morocco in the early 20th century.
Within walking distance: the Café Bacha (one of the world's most beautiful cafes according to the New York Times), the Mouassine Fountain, the Maison de la Photographie, and the medina's best restaurants (Nomad, Le Jardin, Café des Épices). Ideal for a stay that alternates between lounging at the riad and cultural discovery on foot.
Prestige reservation: contact Eric directly at +212 600 608 608. Describe your vision of the ideal stay and Eric will build a bespoke programme within 24 hours.
Hire an Entire Riad in the Heart of the Medina
Renting a villa on the outskirts means a long taxi ride to everything that matters. Hiring an entire riad in the heart of the medina means the real Marrakech is on your doorstep: take over all of Riad Vendôme — a genuine traditional house in the Dar El Bacha district, 7 minutes from Jemaa El-Fna — with its planted patios, rooftop terrace, pool and 36°C jacuzzi, exclusively for your group. Chef Naima cooks for you and Éric runs the stay personally, like a private host. It is privatised authenticity in the living heart of the city, not an isolated rental far from the action.
What Exclusive Hire Looks Like — A Typical Weekend
When you hire the riad exclusively there are no other guests: no shared breakfast times, no closing time on the rooftop, no strangers at the next table. Here is what that changes, hour by hour.
Friday
| 15:00 | Your group arrives. Rooms allocated by you, not by us. |
| 17:00 | Pool and rooftop jacuzzi at 36°C — reserved for your group alone. |
| 20:30 | Dinner in the patio at the time you chose, not at a fixed service. |
| 23:00 | Rooftop and licensed bar. No other guests to disturb, so no curfew. |
Saturday
| 09:00 | Breakfast served across the morning, not in a 90-minute window. |
| 11:00 | Hammam and massage in rotation, or the medina on foot, 7 minutes away. |
| 13:00 | Lunch by the pool. |
| 20:00 | Dinner on the rooftop. |
Sunday
| 10:00 | Breakfast, last swim. |

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a standard exclusive hire and prestige?
The standard exclusive hire includes the riad, the staff and breakfast. The prestige package adds: VIP airport welcome, a private chef for dinners, premium spa treatments, exclusive activities organised by Eric and personalised decoration.
Can you organise a gourmet dinner at the riad?
Yes, Eric brings in a private chef who creates a bespoke menu. Served around the pool or on the rooftop. Expect €35 to €75/person depending on the gourmet level chosen.
Is the Riad Vendôme comparable to a 5-star palace?
The level of service is comparable, but the experience is fundamentally different: absolute privacy (no other guests), the authenticity of the medina, and unbeatable value for money. For the price of 2-3 rooms at the Royal Mansour, you can exclusively hire an entire riad.
What high-end activities can be organised?
Eric arranges: buggy in the Agafay desert (€75/person), golf on world-class courses (€60/person), private Ourika Valley excursion (€45/person), shopping guided in the souks, evenings show at the riad.
Is Dar El Bacha really the best district in the medina?
Yes, Dar El Bacha is unanimously considered the most chic neighbourhood of the medina. A former aristocratic quarter, it is the cleanest, safest and quietest. A 7-minute walk from Jemaa El-Fna, close to the best restaurants.
Can you organise a private show at the riad?
Yes, Eric organises evening shows on the rooftop: Gnaoua musicians (traditional Moroccan music, UNESCO-listed) (traditional trance), belly dancer, fire breather, henna party, music all night with our sound system. Your private rooftop hire is the perfect setting.
How do you get around Marrakech for a prestige stay?
Eric provides a private driver for your journeys: airport transfers, excursions, restaurant outings. In the medina, everything is accessible on foot from Dar El Bacha. No taxis needed.
What is the budget for a 3-night prestige stay?
For a group of 15 people over 3 nights with premium services: expect approximately €350 to €550/person all-inclusive (accommodation, gourmet dinners, 1 activity, spa). Excluding flights. Quote personalised on request.
How long is the flight to Marrakech from the US and Canada?
There are no non-stop flights from the United States; from New York allow about 8 to 9 hours via Casablanca on Royal Air Maroc, which hubs there. From Canada, Royal Air Maroc runs a seasonal non-stop from Montreal to Casablanca, then a short connection to Marrakech. The riad is about 20 minutes from Marrakech-Menara airport.
How do I book, and how quickly do you reply?
You contract directly with the riad, not through an OTA or an aggregator: one single point of contact from the first enquiry to the invoice. Send your dates and group size on WhatsApp at +212 600 608 608, or go through our group booking desk, and you receive a written quote, at our net rate, within 24 hours. There is no automated booking engine: every stay is confirmed by a person, and the payment terms are set out in the quote you receive.
What changes concretely when you hire the riad exclusively?
There are no other guests, so breakfast is served across the morning rather than in a 90-minute window, dinner happens at the time you choose rather than at a fixed service, the pool and the rooftop jacuzzi at 36 degrees are reserved for your group alone, you allocate the rooms yourselves, and there is no curfew on the rooftop because nobody else is trying to sleep.
Do I have one single contact for the rooms, the activities and the transfers?
Yes. One person, Éric, owner of the riad since 2011, organises the whole group stay: rooms, hammam and massage slots, meals by Chef Naima, the airport transfers and the activities. You write to a single WhatsApp number, +212 600 608 608, and you get one written quote within 24 hours instead of five separate providers to chase. Transfers and outside activities are coordinated with an approved licensed transport partner. For a group, this is the difference between one conversation and a dozen email threads.

Exclusive Hire Individual Rooms — The Full Comparison
The cost calculation for exclusive hire versus standard room bookings often surprises groups. A group of 15 taking Riad Vendôme exclusively for a weekend: €650/night × 2 nights = €1,300 total, divided by 15 = €87 per person for the entire stay. Compare this to 8 double rooms at a 4-star Marrakech hotel at €100/room/night: €1,600 for 2 nights — more expensive, with no private pool, no dedicated chef, no exclusive hammam, and 15 strangers sharing the breakfast room.
The inclusive nature of the hire changes the dynamic of the trip. When the property is entirely yours, the group spends more time together — the rooftop becomes a natural gathering point, the patio is always available for quiet conversation, and mealtimes don't involve navigating restaurant bookings across a divided group. For milestone events (40th, 50th, 60th birthdays, hen weekends, family reunions, anniversaries), this cohesion is often cited by clients as the defining feature of the experience.
Riad Vendôme is available for exclusive hire to groups of 10–45 guests (the upper end using the partner property 100 metres away). Peak weekends in October and March are booked well ahead. Contact Éric via WhatsApp for a quote: +212 600 608 608.
