Winter Weekend Breaks in Marrakesh, Flights & Top Rated Accommodation from €229pp!
Are you looking for some winter sun with a difference? Try a weekend break in Marrakesh.
With an abundance of flights to Marrakesh this winter, there has never been a better time to visit Morocco’s medieval city. Ryanair and Aer Lingus are both flying from Dublin, so there are lots of opportunities to book a bargain weekend break in Marrakesh. And, with average temperatures in Marrakech a balmy 23 degrees, you can enjoy exploring this unique city as well as soaking up the sunshine.
The walled medieval Medina is the heart of this city. Go bargain hunting in the souqs and spend some time on the main square, Jemâa El-Fna, where you will find everything from snake charmers to cookery shows!
There are many traditional private mansions, or ‘riads’ located near the Medina. These house some of Marrakesh’s top hotels now and are a great place to stay to soak up the atmosphere. However, if you don’t want to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of the Medina, there are plenty of hotels to choose from in quieter locations, including Marrakesh’s new town with modern shops, bars and restaurants.
Flights & 3 Night Weekend Riad Stay: €166pp
I found return weekend flights in late February from Dublin to Marrakesh from €75 with Ryanair, and €123 with Aer Lingus including 10kg checked baggage. I have selected the 28th of February below, but many more dates are available.
A three-night stay in the top-rated Riad De Vinci & SPA is only €154pp including breakfast.
Superbly located just 15 minutes walk from the famous Jemâa El Fna square, with a large rooftop terrace and indoor pool and outdoor pool, this Riad is a super choice for a weekend break in Marrakech in an authentic setting. Check out the great reviews on TripAdvisor if you still need convincing.
Note: Riads, by tradition, have a small number of rooms and sell out quickly, but there are many Riads available at a similar price – and are great value throughout the winter months. Check TripAdvisor rating and Booking.com ratings to ensure a great stay.
