Moroccan Poolside

Moroccan Poolside: California

This riad inspired home impresses with its sophisticated atmosphere, exotic poolside, decorative panache and touches of L.A glamour. An ode to Morroco, you’ll find objets d’art in the sitting rooms and dreamy daybeds beneath lattice lanterns in the backyard. In the evenings, turn on the red lights and tuck into North African fare in the outdoor dining space. Follow with a robust coffee or glass of wine at the cosy alfresco seating area – light the brick fireplace or warm up in the hot tub if it gets chilly when night falls. The final flourish is the master bedroom’s open-concept en-suite. With free-standing marble tub and glitzy chrome wall, it’s a somewhat subtle nod to the fabulous West Hollywood, a five-minute drive away. Shopping fans should walk the mere three blocks to Melrose Avenue for upscale boutiques, while foodies must try out the small plate menus in your Beverly Grove locale or take the fifteen-minute walk to Robertson Avenue for its see-and-be-seen restaurants.
