"Meryanne Loum-Martin, whose boutique hotel, Jnane Tamsna, a preferred hideaway for artists and writers in the Palmeraie, suggests spending a day in Marrakesh by first having breakfast in the medina, shopping in Sidi Ghanem in the afternoon, and visiting the Dar El Bacha-Musée des Confluences museum before savoring local flavors at Dar Zellij for dinner."
"In the heart of Marrakesh's Palmeraie district stands MICHELIN Guide Hotels property Jnane Tamsna, a meticulously curated oasis, and testament to the vision of Meryanne Loum-Martin, a pioneering Black female hotelier. For over two decades, she has carefully blended ancient Moroccan allure with modern elegance, fashioning a retreat just moments away from the city's vibrant medina where luminaries like Brad Pitt, Nicole Kidman, David Bowie, Iman, Giorgio Armani, Donna Karan, and other influential figures have all found refuge." - Ty Gaskins
"In the Palmerie neighborhood outside of town, ethno-botanist Gary Martin and his wife, interior designer Meryanne Loum-Martin, have created a fairytale oasis—whose name translates to “big garden”—with five houses, five pools, and beautiful green spaces spread over nine lush acres. Set in three different villas, the 24 uniquely designed, boho-chic rooms range from the Small (which can be tight and somewhat dark) to the more spacious Standard, Large, Garden, and Pavilion options, which feature plenty of light and perks like fireplaces, terraces, king beds, and artisan details. When not lounging around one of the pools, guests can play a set on the clay tennis courts, wander around the botanical gardens, take a Moroccan cooking class with Chef Bahija, or explore the surrounding area by bike, vintage sidecar, or camel. Kids are more than welcome here and can look forward to such programming as calligraphy and magic classes, while adults can expect in-room massages and outdoor yoga classes. Breakfast is included in the room rate and, like all meals, can be enjoyed in various spaces around the hotel. Dinner is particularly magical when served underneath countless glowing lanterns."
"On a lush, nine-acre plot of land outside of Marrakech, this quiet boutique features five houses and pools, each uniquely designed."
"Jnane Tamsna is a boutique hotel owned by Meryanne Loum-Martin, who is Morocco's sole Black female hotelier. It is located in the Palmeraie, a sprawling oasis at the northern edge of Marrakech. It is a favored retreat for artists and writers, offering a serene environment for creativity."
