This story is the one of a couple who were enamored with Grenada's Alhambra's beauty. Bargain-hunting, they found the plans of the Andalusian architectural masterpiece in a secondhand bookshop in London. 

It took 1300 craftsmen over three full years to create the replica of the Alhambra Palace set in a 4.6 ha plot in the heart of Marrakesh's palm grove - The Palmeraie.

The palace looks as though it has emerged from the vegetation. One might think the Palace has been there for centuries.

It perpetuates the richness and treasures of Moroccan craftsmanship, featuring Fez Zeliges, finely chiseled cedar wood ceilings and all patiently sculpted by hundreds of pairs of well skilled hands.

The garden features a marvelous rose garden as well as palm tree paths bordering ornamental lakes and numerous marble fountains. The inspiration of these Andalusian gardens may be found in the geometrical patterns ornamenting the paths, which separate the bamboo forest, the orange garden and the cactus garden.

So many different atmospheres to relax and enjoy a true masterpiece in every sense.

The home has eight bedrooms and eight bathrooms.
