Marriott's St. Regis brand to debut in Morocco

Marriott International and Eagle Hills has signed The St. Regis Tamuda Bay, marking the debut of the brand in Morocco.

Located in Tamuda Bay, the hotel is slated to open in mid-2020. The property will be part of La Bahia Blanca, a lifestyle resort development being built by Eagle Hills, an Abu Dhabi-based private real estate investment and development company. 

“The rich heritage, and cultural and historic legacy of Morocco has long been alluring to the luxury traveler. The St. Regis Tamuda Bay represents an exciting moment for St. Regis as the brand continues to grow globally in destinations welcoming a new generation of luxury travelers,” said Alex Kyriakidis, president and managing director, Middle East and Africa, Marriott International. 

The St. Regis Tamuda Bay will have 100 guestrooms and suites with sea views and will feature the signature St. Regis Butler Service.

The resort’s culinary offerings will include a specialty restaurant, an all-day dining restaurant featuring a wide range of gourmet selections, and a St. Regis Bar inspired by the King Cole Bar at the brand’s flagship in New York, where the world-renowned Bloody Mary cocktail was born in 1934.

Leisure facilities will include a spa, pool, and fitness center. The St. Regis Tamuda Bay will also offer event and meeting spaces, a setting for small and large scale events.

“We are very excited to take our partnership with Marriott International to the next level with the St. Regis legacy and the brand’s renowned bespoke service,” said M’Hammed El Merini, general manager, Eagle Hills.
