Villa Raga | Casablanca

There's something about sunlight falling through tall trees in the California district here in Casablanca. Villa Raga feels almost hidden from the world even though city life is just down the road. I spent a morning here and, honestly, you just breathe a bit easier as soon as you walk through the gates. The garden wraps right around the house and it is not small at all. You hear wind in the leaves before you notice anything else. Sometimes you get a burst of birdsong from somewhere near the back. It is easy to forget you're in Morocco's biggest city.

The villa itself is on five levels and everywhere you look there's space. Real space. Not just big rooms but places to sit with a coffee and actually watch the sun move or open a book and do nothing else. I have to mention the lift straight away. It keeps things comfortable if you're carrying groceries or just want to get to the top floor without taking stairs. You'll find six bedrooms here and each one has its own feel. Five of them are almost like little apartments. Big windows, sitting areas that you'll probably use for long phone calls or just staring outside. Each has its own bathroom and dressing room so there's privacy and loads of storage. The whole place is made for people who like a little quiet.

Then there's the main suite. It isn't just bigger. It's presidential huge. I walked in and noticed how the light spreads across the floor in the late afternoon. There's an office nook right there, a proper place for work when you need it, and a living room just sort of flows off it. The double bathroom has a Hammam which I'll be honest is not something you see every day. Imagine ending your day with a steam and then stepping out onto your own big terrace, just letting the city lights in the distance remind you how close you are to everything. The dressing room made me think of those movie closets where everything has its spot. It's not only about clothes here. It just feels organized and simple.

You also get a lot of living areas dotted through the villa. Sometimes you'll catch a breeze if you keep the doors open and the scent from the landscaped garden slips inside. The garden is one of those places that really changes with the seasons. Kids could run here for ages or it could be your morning yoga spot or the place for weekend barbecues. There's an indoor swimming pool so you don't have to check the weather before you jump in. That means you swim all through the year, not just on sunny days. Outbuildings for staff are tucked away just enough for privacy. You'll notice everyone's comfort has been thought of.

Professional touches are everywhere. I still remember peeking into the kitchen and thinking somebody who actually cooks will love it. Not just for reheating takeaway, either. There are terraces all around the villa, big enough for quiet breakfasts or bigger dinners with friends. Evenings here are often cool enough for a walk right on your own grounds and sometimes you catch the city glow just past the trees.

It sits on a plot of nearly five acres which is hard to find anywhere in Casablanca especially in a part this green. This house just does not feel rushed and nothing seems crowded. Sometimes you even forget your phone when you're walking between the trees.
