We are very sad to announce that Gill Jackson passed away last week.

As many of you will know, Gill worked tirelessly to ensure that her clients were carefully looked after, from the moment they first made contact, to the moment they landed home from their travels. In that spirit, we would like to reassure anyone with live bookings through Embarque Travel, that someone will be in touch with you very soon to complete the process.

Also, if you recently consulted with Gill about future travel plans you will hear from us shortly.

Thank you for your support.

The second in our posts about luxury Villa holidays takes us to magical Morocco.

Villa Ocean Air will make you feel like you're soaring over the world. Contemporary, open-plan Italian designed villa with Moroccan influences, a panoramic view of the Atlantic Ocean and a 50m2 terrace with infinity pool, overlooking the resplendent beach of Larache. It’s not only special but it’s transformational, due to its richness in cultural, historical and experiential touches. They say it’s all about the location, in this case, the strong, wild and sun-drenched Larache coast, with its deserted beaches and untouched bays, its ocean-facing dunes and hidden natural gems the magnetic energy of this location cannot fail to captivate.

With breakfast served to you in your villa every day, the luxury of this unique experience is part of a respectful and supportive kind of hospitality; an eco-retreat that aims to protect the natural landscape, the people that live there and give hope to the inhabitants of the remote villages of Dchier and Tcharouah e Mezgalef.
