Marrakech – GIMS and Horizon Morocco hosted a high-level press conference at Sunset Village – Private Residences, revealing the project’s model villa and outlining the strategic vision shaping one of Marrakech’s most emblematic new residential developments.
Bringing together GIMS, associate investor of the project, and the board members of Horizon Morocco, the event offered an exclusive insight into the progress of construction, the first finished elements of the model villa, and the long-term strategy positioning Sunset Village as a flagship of new-generation Moroccan real estate.
A strategic location in the heart of Marrakech
Nestled within one of the city’s most desirable zones, Sunset Village combines calm, nature and direct access to Marrakech’s key destinations:
- 10 minutes from Hivernage
- 8 minutes from Morocco Mall (Africa’s largest mall)
- 11 minutes from Marrakech International Airport
- 13 minutes from the Medina
- 16 minutes from Jardin Majorelle
- 20 minutes from the Agafay Desert and Lalla Takerkoust
This prime positioning places the project at the crossroads of lifestyle, tourism, and urban convenience.
GIMS × Horizon Morocco
This project emerges from the encounter of two complementary visions:
- Horizon Morocco’s Vision
A consortium of Moroccan professionals from banking, real estate development and investment, Horizon Morocco aims to lead Moroccan real estate into a new era by elevating construction standards, integrating best Western practices, mastering the entire value chain, ensuring premium finishes aligned with European benchmarks, delivering reliably, often ahead of schedule, and prioritizing a long-term, quality-driven approach.
As a major cultural figure in Europe and Africa, GIMS extends his creativity into architecture and urban design.
Having lived in Marrakech for more than 12 years, he seeks to imagine coherent, elegant, inspiring residential quarters that enhance quality of life and strengthen Morocco’s attractiveness.
An unprecedented commercial success
Sunset Village has already shown remarkable market performance, with Phase 1 selling out in under two weeks and Phase 2 reaching 85% of units sold.
Phase 3, the “Prime” phase, is set to launch in January 2026 and will include the unveiling of Villa 117 – GIMS’ own villa.
This is projected to generate nearly MAD 1 billion in revenue, with 70% already secured.
Its client base reflects Morocco’s ongoing transformation, with more than 50% coming from the Moroccan diaspora, around 25% from international buyers, and a growing presence of new profiles such as professionals, remote workers, and entrepreneurs.
A unique architectural identity
Sunset Village stands out through an architectural vocabulary built around soft lines, a refined color palette, and organic integration within the landscape.
The project draws its identity from four founding elements: The Atlas mountains, the setting sun, water, and vegetation
This conceptual framework gives the residences a serene, contemporary aesthetic rooted in Marrakech’s natural heritage.

- Club House
