Housing in Marrakech

Hi all,

I'll be interning at an organization in Marrakech, Morocco from Mid-May to the beginning of August and will need an apartment for the summer. Does anyone know of any cheap apts available or how to find them? The cheaper the better! One that is semi-furnished is preferable, but I'm flexible.

Thanks!
Mary

hallo what are you looking for??

Hi. I'm just looking for a 2 or 3 bedroom apartment through the summer until the beginning of August. If it has some furnishings that would be helpful since I am coming from out of the country and won't have any furniture or kitchen items.

Hi, I have rented thru airbnb.com for 3 wks in october and the price is very good.

To the OP, let me repeat my invariable advice. It probably gets boring for regulars, but after only a few weeks on a board that seems to have its fair share of scammers, I feel it's necessary.

A word of advice. If you decide to go to Morocco, whether Marrakech or not, as you are staying for some considerable time, get yourselves parked in an hotel for the first few days and go to a reputable physical estate agency for your accommodation. Insist on meeting the owner and bargain the price down after you have seen the property. Don't rent from online. You can be lucky, but appearances are deceptive and photos often don't correspond to the real thing. In addition, that lovely roof terrace shown might just overlook a stinking cesspit or rubbish dump! This is why I would not recommend online agencies or resources such as airbnb. In addition, there have been some horror stories emerging about airbnb regarding thefts and harassment.

Never, ever accept offers from people who pop up on these forums to offer "their" property, either as a first post or the same post in multiple languages. Especially never get in touch with people who want to "help" you and leave their phone numbers on the forum or ask you to message them privately. Ignore all private messages that arrive in your inbox. They will be scams. The forums are infested with these scammers and worse, despite the best efforts of the moderating team. Unfortunately, this spoils it for the very few genuine people. The scammers will be intermediaries for the real landlord, if indeed the property exists at all and will take a hefty commission whether you rent or not. They are a buffer between you and the landlord for his benefit. If he uses one of these scammers, you can't bargain the price down and why would you want to rent from such a person anyway?

The thread is a year old, so she obviously already found something, or at least I hope so. Regardless the advice is still relevant, if she intends to return in the future.

I am a disciplined, quiet, non-smoker, non-drinker into spiritual and physical well being.

I can provide a free furnished room in a villa to the right roomate who is happy to help look after a chihuahua especially while I'm away.

airbnb.com is a good choice to find an appartment  but to stay safe shcedule a skype or whatsapp call to see the house

i have found someone to look after my chihuahua so the room is no longer available.

I think is better to rent it outside of Marrakech even fully furnished much cheaper beautiful views an people as well and you can find all what's needed there talkin just 20 min away but so relaxing place too lot foreigns living there cos of that ,so if you want more information contact me on ***
Best regards
