The Montgomerie Marrakech

Overview

The Montgomerie Marrakech is one of the city’s most modern and stylish championship golf courses, located in the heart of Marrakech’s luxury district on the prestigious Avenue de la Menara. Designed by European Tour legend Colin Montgomerie and built by the renowned European Golf Design team, the course opened in 2014 and has quickly become known for its striking visuals, contemporary architecture and highly enjoyable playability.

Set across a beautifully sculpted 75-hectare estate, the course combines elegant landscaping, clean geometrical shaping and wide playing corridors that suit golfers of all levels. The layout is a par 71, stretching to just over 6,500 metres from the back tees, and is designed to offer a blend of challenge and fun. Montgomerie’s design philosophy is evident throughout: generous fairways paired with strategic bunkering, cleverly angled greens and multiple risk-reward opportunities that give golfers the freedom to attack or play conservatively depending on their confidence and skill level.

The course sits on elevated ground, providing expansive views across Marrakech and the Atlas Mountains. Its modern desert-parkland style features palm-lined fairways, sculpted bunkers, water features and manicured greens that roll true and provide plenty of variety. Many of the greens are contoured with subtle slopes and run-off areas that reward accurate approach play while keeping the course playable for mid-handicap golfers.

What sets The Montgomerie apart from many other courses in Marrakech is its central location and contemporary atmosphere. Positioned near high-end hotels, shopping districts and lifestyle spaces, the course offers a luxurious yet relaxed environment within easy reach of the city centre. Despite being in an urban area, the layout feels spacious thanks to wide fairways, open vistas and well-planned landscaping.

The facilities at The Montgomerie Marrakech are among the best in the city. The impressive Montgomerie Lounge & Skybar overlooks the course and offers panoramic views, stylish dining, cocktails and one of the most elegant social settings in Marrakech’s golfing scene. The clubhouse also features locker rooms, a pro shop and shaded terraces that create a premium post-round experience.

Practice facilities include a large driving range, putting greens and a short-game zone, all maintained to the high standards expected from a modern championship venue. Friendly staff, consistent conditioning and a welcoming vibe have made The Montgomerie a popular choice among travelling golfers and city visitors looking for a refined yet accessible round.

For golfers who enjoy modern architecture, generous landing areas, engaging strategy and a central location, The Montgomerie Marrakech is one of the most stylish and enjoyable options in the region.
