Some hotels never go out of style: The Plaza, Ritz Paris, George V (also in Paris--notice a trend?). Now, you can add La Mamounia to that list. Like a moth to a flame, celebrities have been flocking to the newly restored oasis in Marrakech, which recently underwent a three-year renovation led by acclaimed interior designer Jacques Garcia.

Originally built in 1923 and named after its 200-year-old gardens (20 acres of them!), which were a wedding gift from an 18th century king to his son, the romantic and uber-luxurious hotel is a sumptuous example of sophistication and style. There's an ozone pool, clay tennis courts, a world-class salon, and plenty of dining options to keep you more than satisfied. And just take a look at the rooms.

 


How's that for living like a queen for a week? I've always wanted to go to Morocco, and now I just might. Plus, I'd be thrilled to stay in the place Winston Churchill called "the most lovely spot in the whole world." Are any of you considering it for your honeymoon?
