Eagle Hills has signed an agreement with Marriott International that will see the development of a new property in Morocco. Slated to open in mid-2020, the St. Regis Tamunda Bay will be located on the country’s northwestern coast.
According to a statement, the property will be part of the La Bahia Blanca lifestyle resort development that is also being built by Eagle Hills. Eagle Hills says the resort will ‘exude Moroccan charm and pay tribute to the Andalusian cultural legacy through elevated design, exceptional service and unique food and beverage offerings’.

We are delighted to strengthen our relationship with Eagle Hills and look forward to offering guests an unparalleled experience both befitting of the destination and true to the St. Regis legacy,” said Alex Kyriakidis, president and managing director, Middle East and Africa, Marriott International.
The property will boast 100 guestrooms and suites and is being designed to offer unobstructed sea views. It will include hallmarks of the brand, including the St. Regis Butler Service. The property will feature a specialty restaurant, an all-day dining restaurant and a St. Regis Bar. Leisure facilities include a spa, pool, and fitness centre. The St. Regis Tamuda Bay will also offer event and meeting spaces, and is said to be ideal for small and large-scale events.
