Birthday boy David Beckham is celebrating his 40th this weekend at a luxury hotel in Marrakech.
And it’s expected celebrity pals helping him party will include actor Tom Cruise, chef Gordon Ramsay, director Guy Ritchie and his former Manchester United teammate Gary Neville.
The five-star Amanjena (peaceful paradise) resort, above) just outside the Moroccan “Red City” is set within an oasis of palms and olive trees and oozes Moorish heritage – looking a bit like a sultan’s palace.
David, wife Victoria and their friends can enjoy a 27-hole golf course, 33-metre pool and a spa featuring two Turkish-style hammans.
Looking on hotel comparison site Trivago you’ll have a job booking a trip to stay where Becks is, but there’s plenty of other hotels and riads in fascinating Marrakech.
The city is full of fantastic food, sun and so much more. The exotic, historic and cultural hub offers a wonderful mix of heritage, modernity, museums and restaurants.
You can save 41 per cent with seven nights half-board at The Blue Sea Le Printemps Hotel, above, with an outdoor pool and restaurant, costs from £164 per person, departing Stansted on July 1.
The hotel has 114 double rooms and suites over five floors. The buffet restaurant serves breakfast and dinner with international and local dishes available. There is also a snack bar and lounge bar, with live music and evening entertainment.
