Marrakech Family Hotels with Tennis Courts
6 family-friendly hotels with tennis in Marrakech . Handpicked for families who want the best.
Marrakech is not the first city most parents picture for a family tennis holiday, which is exactly the gap. Five-star resorts in the Palmeraie and along the Route de l'Ourika line up clay and hard courts inside generous gardens, with junior coaches available year-round and morning sessions before the heat builds. Court fees at four of the five hotels below are included with stays, and rackets are loaned in adult and junior sizes. The five resorts have decent kid-occupied options for the non-tennis parent too: pools at every property, kids' clubs at three, and sleep-friendly villa-style family suites.
Marrakech moves between two registers. Inside the medina walls is sensory chaos at adult pace, which kids tolerate for an hour and then absolutely don't. Outside the city, in the Palmeraie or along the Atlas roads, the resorts are quiet, walled, and built around shaded gardens you can lose a 4-year-old in. The tennis-strong hotels are mostly in the second category, which is the right call for a family stay because the resort grounds give kids freedom and you don't have to gear up for a medina expedition every morning.
🎾Why Marrakech Resorts Are Surprisingly Strong on Tennis
The interesting thing about Marrakech tennis is that the courts get used by guests year-round but never feel busy. Two of the five resorts have four courts each, which means even at high-occupancy weeks you can book a 10am slot in the morning and another at 5pm without queuing. Junior coaches are available at four of the five, hourly rates are reasonable by European standards, and the coaching English is solid because the staff have worked with European families for 25 years.
For families with mixed ages and skills, the standout pattern is one parent doing a 90-minute coached session at 8am while the other is at the breakfast table with the kids. Then both parents and the kids hit the pool until lunch, and the tennis-curious 8-year-old gets a half-hour kids' session at 4pm when the heat eases. Several resorts here will package this as a family week without you having to negotiate.
Parent's take
What we noticed across these five hotels is that tennis isn't bolted on as an extra, it's part of how the resort is run. Pro shops, racket libraries, junior racket sizes from age 5, and ball machines that kids can use under coach supervision. The combination of warm winter weather and serious tennis facilities makes Marrakech a different proposition from a generic beach resort week.
Our Top 6 Picks
Hotels in Marrakech with tennis, sorted by guest rating.
Amanjena Resort
Route de Ouarzazate (south of city)
Wonderful
500 reviews
A 39-pavilion resort 15 minutes from the medina with private courtyards on every pavilion, an indoor play area for kids, a heated outdoor pool, a spa, and 40 acres of olive trees and rose gardens. The hotel is 5-star and aimed at couples but quietly accepts well-supervised children, with babysitting on request, family pavilions, and an Aman-quality kids menu. Free transfer to Jemaa el-Fnaa available.
From
€1210/night
Why families love Amanjena Resort
Parents who pick Amanjena are usually doing one big multi-generational trip and want the calmest resort in the city. The playground here is honestly the smallest of the five, but the gardens are huge, the staff-to-kid ratio is high, and the family pavilions are essentially small private homes with their own pools. Not a budget choice and not the loudest resort: better for families with quieter children, with a budget for fine dining at every meal, and with a plan to visit the medina only once or twice.
The Oberoi Marrakech
Route de Ouarzazate
Wonderful
528 reviews
A 28-acre 5-star Oberoi resort south of the medina with two clay tennis courts, a tennis pavilion and twin pools. The grounds are quieter than the Palmeraie hotels because the property sits on the route to the Atlas, and the family villas have walled gardens that make a 4-year-old's morning self-contained.
From
€1247/night
Why families love The Oberoi Marrakech
The tennis setup here is the best we found in Marrakech. Two clay courts, a small pro shop, a coach who'd worked the European junior circuit and was patient with our 7-year-old's first lesson. The villa configuration meant my partner could play a coached set at 7am while the kids and I had breakfast in our garden. Pool to court is a 90-second walk. Nothing about this resort feels rushed, which is what we'd come for.
Mandarin Oriental Marrakech
Route du Golf Royal
Wonderful
182 reviews
Mandarin Oriental Marrakech sits on a 20-hectare estate facing the Atlas Mountains, with private-pool villas, a kids' club, five restaurants and a tennis court. The kids' programme accepts ages 4 to 12 with a daily charge that includes activities, snacks and supervised lunch.
From
€990/night
Why families love Mandarin Oriental Marrakech
We took a Mandarin pool villa to give the kids their own water and ourselves an evening drink without sharing the public pool. The kids' club programme is small and well-staffed, and the daily 50-euro fee covered our 6-year-old's entire day from 9am to 6pm including a buffet lunch in the kids' dining room. The arts-and-crafts session went deep into Berber motifs which our daughter loved.
Domaine Des Remparts Hotel & Spa
Route de Fes (Tassoultante)
Wonderful
600 reviews
Mid-priced 5-star on the road north out of Marrakech, twelve minutes from Royal Golf Marrakech and fifteen from Amelkis. The grounds run to several hectares with two outdoor pools, a kids playground, a tennis court and a spa with hammam. The hotel offers golf packages with three of the five courses and runs a daily airport-medina-pool shuttle.
From
€190/night
Why families love Domaine Des Remparts Hotel & Spa
Families with two or three kids book this hotel for the space — the rooms are large, many have terraces overlooking the gardens, and the second pool tends to be quieter and stays open later. The kids playground is covered for shade, the breakfast buffet includes a Moroccan side of msemen and amlou, and parents reported the staff are quick to organise babysitting for evening dinners. Good value for what you get.
Fairmont Royal Palm Marrakech
Route d'Amizmiz
Wonderful
257 reviews
Fairmont Royal Palm sits on a 230-hectare estate 12 km south of Marrakech with a championship golf course, kids' club, indoor play area and seven restaurants. The resort runs structured morning and afternoon kids' programmes for ages 4 to 12 at no extra cost.
From
€595/night
Why families love Fairmont Royal Palm Marrakech
We picked Fairmont for the size of the grounds: kids run free in the gardens between the kids' club, the playground, the kids' pool and the tennis courts without ever needing the road. The kids' club is in air-conditioned indoor space with proper craft tables and a Moroccan cooking session twice a week. Babysitting cost 150 dirhams an hour and the sitter spoke fluent French and English. The 20-minute resort shuttle to the medina ran every hour.
Four Seasons Resort Marrakech
Hivernage
Wonderful
646 reviews
Four Seasons Marrakech is a 16-hectare resort in Hivernage with three restaurants, a kids' club, dedicated games room with billiards and table tennis, and an indoor play area. The kids' programme runs daily 9am to 6pm with a midday break.
From
€544/night
Why families love Four Seasons Resort Marrakech
The Hivernage location matters because you are 5 minutes from Menara Gardens and 10 minutes from the medina, so the morning museum trip is easy and the afternoon kids' club covers the heat. Indoor play and the games room kept our 8-year-old busy when the temperature topped 42°C. Babysitting was reliable and bilingual; we paid 130 dirhams an hour. The teen lounge for 13-16 year olds is a real plus on family trips with mixed ages.
💡Tips for Booking a Tennis Hotel in Marrakech with Kids
- 1Travel in November or February if you want serious tennis. July-August court temperatures over clay reach 45°C and most kids will refuse after a 20-minute warm-up. Cooler shoulder months give you the full afternoon as well as morning sessions.
- 2Email the hotel two weeks before to reserve coaching slots, not when you arrive. The good coaches at these resorts are booked solid in peak weeks and you'll end up with the rookie if you wait until check-in.
- 3Pack proper tennis shoes for the kids. Trainers slip on red clay and most pro shops only stock adult sizes. Standard kids' tennis shoes from a Decathlon at home are 30 euros and worth it.
- 4Skip the airport-collection rental car if you're staying inside one resort the whole time. All five hotels run shuttles to the medina and to Jemaa el-Fna, and a rental sits in the lot for 95 percent of the trip.
- 5For a coached half-day with the kids, the Fairmont and Four Seasons run kids' tennis programmes that pair coaching with pool and craft activities, so you get a real morning to play yourself without worrying about backstop supervision.
