In an attitude of defiant power, the brand new kasbah-mansion perches on the edge of its cliff, daring the wild-alive ocean to reach up the rockface and grab it. Nicole has put all her love of Moroccan buildings and finishes into her southern kasbah: floors are sensual-soft bejmat or old-style tiles, walls are beautifully smooth-hued tadelakt, the patio is wafer bricks, the double-height hall it topped by a great dome, the library is the quiet spot you may need from time to time.  Arches and high, carved antique Marrakchi doors are everywhere, a magnificent four-pillared fireplace brings extra punch to the dining room, the salon, with two more fireplaces, leads out to the great brick  terrace and the patio gives the house a perfect heart. Bedrooms, each in a different style (African, Fassi, Art Deco,...), have space and  comfort to spare, carefully-chosen furnishings and really super  bathrooms. Most have their own fireplace and terrace, too. And at every  turn, from every window, a view to die for. An ideal base for exploring  the coast, north and south, and the unsung delights of the Anti-Atlas.
