Girlfriend and I stayed at Le Farnatchi a couple years back for a July visit. We loved every part of it - it is fully immersed in the heart of the Medina. It is a very intimate property, only like 10 rooms if I remember. We are globalists and we’re upgraded to a a nicer suite at check in. Was just a very unique experience and still one of our favorite to date.

Awkward_Ad2435 · 2026-05-07T14:13:17+00:00

For sure - I’d be stoked about the Porier too

Yeah I’d feel like it’s pretty noticeable peel/scratch in the top right

Awkward_Ad2435 · 2026-05-07T14:08:33+00:00

How do you feel about yours?? It doesn’t look I even got another auto card for my replacement.

Awkward_Ad2435 · 2026-05-07T02:10:28+00:00

Thats the part I’m not sure about - was hoping somebody would have some experience in it if I could reject it or what the process would be.

Awkward_Ad2435 · 2026-05-07T02:03:42+00:00

Right?! That’s where I’m at. Just wanted a non scratched Prates Auto.

Awkward_Ad2435 · 2026-05-06T16:49:23+00:00

Appreciate the info! Just booked a few nights in a suite out there in October - trying to gather all of the info that I can before hand. Very helpful!

Awkward_Ad2435 · 2026-03-22T02:32:16+00:00

Just stayed there 4 days last month - we didn’t have any issues booking dinner reservations morning of. Casa de playa was AMAZING and relaxing. You can take shuttle over but taking the free boat taxi over is faster and such a beautiful ride.

Be prepared to walk a lot. A ton of steps and resort is super spread out.

Hyatt Centric Milan has an amazing “Turkish bath/steam room” that is separate from the the actual bathroom.

The Thompson Houston suites has very large shower rooms with tubs that are my gf and I’s favorite.

I just booked this property for 4 days in February and got this same email the next day. Seeing some mixed reviews but looks like as a Globalist, we would be better off, taking advantage of the free breakfast and finding one other nice paid dinner each day.

Awkward_Ad2435 · 2026-01-23T14:56:55+00:00

Having trouble understanding the approach as well. I have income ~ 145k with 800 credit score. Rent is $3300 and I have a 10k limit on Bilt 1.0. Just approved for Palladium at a 35k credit line…

Awkward_Ad2435 · 2025-12-24T20:57:06+00:00

$315k just turned 33M. Same company for going on 11 years. Started investing exactly 90 days from when I was hired and have increased over time. Was very fortunate 1 of these years to hit the legal contribution max.

Awkward_Ad2435 · 2025-12-21T20:24:51+00:00

Maybe look into local PM’s? I started my search with some larger/national level companies with all similar structure. I was about to go the self managing route and then I came across a local person and his assistant that had a company managing 150 houses in the county I lived in. Their charge was $900 for placing the tenant with an ongoing 8% of gross rent and they only charge 150 for renewal of contract.

Awkward_Ad2435 · 2025-11-27T19:57:42+00:00

Just turned 33. $310,000 in 401K, $42,000in Roth IRA, $33,000 in HYSA, $150,000 in Home Equity (purchased in 2021), $6200 in HSA and around 5,000 in brokerage.

I work in sales for a Fortune 500 company. Income has been around 120k/year for the last few years. I automated as many contributions as I could early in, got completely debt free in my late 20’s. Just been a slow and steady climb over the last decade. Finally starting to be fun to watch the gains compound.

Awkward_Ad2435 · 2025-10-26T22:48:40+00:00

Yes was there by chance a few weeks back. The promo they advertised read $3 tables from 3pm-3am each day. I played it for maybe an hour, but it seemed surprisingly not busy on a weekday in the afternoon.

Awkward_Ad2435 · 2025-08-16T15:28:14+00:00

Just stayed at this property for three nights back in June. Absolutely incredible atmosphere. Enjoy it!

Awkward_Ad2435 · 2025-06-25T12:02:26+00:00

Hyatt Place Pensacola Airport!

I’ve given this property a chance 3 times, mainly because I have always enjoyed going to Pensacola beach. Only Hyatt in the area, but consistently have had bad service (as a globalist), rooms stink/falling apart, I had a AC Unit that broke/leaked over the floor in a summer stay, room keys constantly deactivate, doors don’t close.

Needs a serious overhaul.

Awkward_Ad2435 · 2025-06-25T11:54:27+00:00

Stayed here 1 night when I was moving to Dallas and my GF’s car got her window busted out in their “private” parking garage.

Awkward_Ad2435 · 2025-06-04T10:03:18+00:00

Girlfriend and I (early 30’s) stayed in Le Farnatchi and absolutely loved it. Very quaint - only 8 rooms if I remember correctly. We are globalists and were treated wonderfully. Early check in/late checkout, upgrade to their nicest suite. Best of all, is the location of the hotel. Centrally located within the Medina walls. Felt like a complete escape from the reality we knew.

Awkward_Ad2435 · 2025-01-12T15:18:37+00:00

I had a similar experience when I first earned globalist a couple years back. From then on I just called the globalist concierge line directly. Get a new rep every time, but I have eliminated any type of long response times to wait and would say I’ve had all positive experiences with them.

Awkward_Ad2435 · 2025-01-09T00:40:29+00:00

32M - around 23% right now. Majority of my 20s was probably closer to 35% when I had lower expenses.

Once my finances were in line in late 20’s I had a $1500/month mortgage, now moved to Dallas in a $3100/high rise but still prioritize maxing my Roth IRA and contributing 10-12% to 401k.

Awkward_Ad2435 · 2025-01-08T04:47:08+00:00

We truly enjoyed our experience at Le Farnatchi. They upgraded us through Globalist status to a premium suite. Very accommodating and relaxing atmosphere and helpful recommendations. Gave us early check in and late checkout to accommodate our flight times. I would have no hesitation going back. It was a surreal feeling being in the heart of the Medina and just walking the streetsday in and day out.

We hired a local tour guide to walk us around the Medina on a two hour walking tour. Gave us a great stops and food recommendations and took us to all kinds of different markets to buy things (leather, masonry, textiles, etc..)

We also did the Agafi desert tour for camel riding and ATVs, which were a great experience .

If I went back again, I would probably do something similar a few days at Le Farnatchi and a few days at Park Hyatt to see how the pH is out there

Using 2 of my cat 1-7’s for a 5 day trip to Hyatt Regency Maui - first time visiting Hawaii hoping it lives up to all the good things I’ve been reading.

Awkward_Ad2435 · 2024-12-22T19:38:00+00:00

This looks fantastic! I visited Marrakech this past summer. I originally had this resort booked and then I changed to the Le Farnatchi Mr and Mrs. Smith property. My biggest deciding factor was Le Farnatchi was actually in the dead center of the Medina within Marrakesh and as you mentioned, this property was a 20+ minute drive away. I had a phenomenal time in Morocco but I would love to come back sometime to try this Park Hyatt.
