Unfortunately played after a monsoonal downpour the night before, so the course was saturated and barely playable in places, but with the assistance of a caddy we managed to negotiate the course without too much difficulty. A gorgeous setting with a plethora of trees, flora and fauna, it really was like playing on a film set designed to feel like a colonial oasis amidst the hustle and bustle of a roaring port city. The clubhouse, pro-shop and changing room styling merely emphasise the opulence the club tries (and succeeds) to exude.

the course was generally very good & an enjoyable experience. The one downside to it was that there was an awful lot of what I can only describe as 'very springy grass', which made it difficult sometimes to find your ball. Even when you did eventually find it, it was quite difficult to get out of. Despite the above, I would recommend a visit to this course/club as it is certainly worth it.

Very short course but very punishing. The semi rough is not very long but shallows your ball in an amazing way. Never encountered grass like it,you could loose a ball a foot off the fairway!! Therefore spent a long time looking for balls. Having said that, it's the pretiest course visually that I have ever played.

Clubhouse and food here are awesome. We played 9 on the new course and 9 on the old and these are two very different courses - Grass, greens, rough all just felt different. If we had played 18 on the old course may have been better. Looked like it was having a lot of work done around the course. Greens had some damage to them, and some of the fairway cutting was dubious at best. Overall, it was my least favourite of 4 rounds and I probably wouldn't play it again unless it was guaranteed old course and it was in better condition.

This course is lovely. The only observation is that this is quite hard for higher handicappers. If you are off the fairway, then the first cut of rough is around 2" high, which means that the ball sits right down in the grass ansd makes it very hard to get the club out, let alone forward. I would suggest that the first cut needs to be cut much shorter.

This has to be taken in context as 2 days before the earthquake struck!!. The greens were in a poor condition, bare patches with freshly laid turf and pitch mark’s all over. The fairways were in good nick, BUT THE ROUGH WAS UNPLAYABLE. The rough was the same type of grass as the fairways but about 2 or 3 inches deep. The ball usually sat down in it so you couldn’t see your ball unless you were right on top of it!!. The club house was closed due to staffing problems. Wouldn’t play it again

It’s a very mature golf course, more so than most of the others in Marrakesh. However, I also consider it the most boring in the area. Apart from a couple of slight doglegs to start, practically every hole is straight and not even very long, though it does have the lovely par 3 9th which is very well protected.

The Royal Marrakech Golf Club is a historic and beautiful golf course. It has an English Colonial feel about the clubhouse that gives you that sense you are somewhere special. The Old Course is a classic layout with mature trees, wide fairways and challenging greens. The courses offer stunning views of the Atlas Mountains. The staff are friendly and helpful, and the atmosphere is relaxed and elegant. There are toilets on the course which were clean and well maintained, but there is no drinking water anywhere on the course. However, they do run out of buggies and all they had left were buggies without a front screen. The pace of play is just over 4 hours as most groups are 4 balls. Whilst easily walkable, if a 2 ball, the buggy does offer shade and somewhere to sit whilst waiting to take your next shot. In terms of timing to be picked up, adding 5 hours to the scheduled tee time worked well. Marrakech Golf Club is a must-play.

The staff were not as friendly as at Samanah and Al Maaden but certainly not unfriendly. Range balls included in green fees. Whilst this is a fantastic course and indeed our favourite of those we played, it should be noted that it is a course for straight drivers of the ball as the fairways are tree lined and not all that wide. Having said that, the drives that we did manage to leak did not result in lost balls for the most part. Friendly advice, if your ball is headed offline, do shout as there are many ground staff working in amongst the trees whose presence is not immediately obvious. Lunch was excellent.

A fascinating experience to return to a course I played some twenty five years ago when Marrakesh only had this one track. Twenty five years ago it was in brilliant condition. Clearly with much more competition the course has suffered. However, there was clear evidence that the management are doing all they can to bring this course up to an acceptable standard, having spent a large amount of money upgrading the off course facilities. We found the course tight but fair! Not easy for long and wayward drivers! Similar to many of our parkland courses in Kent, and very different to any other Marrakesh courses. Easy walking course compared to most others. We would love to play the "Old Course 18 holes" again another year! Not sure about the "new nine" we didn't play though, which we viewed from a distance and seemingly presented like most other Marrakesh courses.
