About this trip

After experiencing the beauty, tranquility, and warm hospitality of Morocco, we are delighted to return to the coast of North Africa for a second retreat in a traditional riad just outside the vibrant city of Essaouira.

Set among olive and argan trees, this beautifully styled riad blends traditional Moroccan architecture with elegant French-inspired design, creating an inviting setting for a week of rest, connection, and exploration. The property features lush gardens, an infinity pool, multiple indoor and outdoor gathering spaces, a shaded yoga terrace, and a rooftop with sweeping 360° views of the surrounding countryside.

Your days may include optional yoga, three chef-prepared Moroccan-inspired meals, time to unwind by the pool, an evening of traditional Gnawa music, a sunset camel ride along the Atlantic coast, a Moroccan wine tasting, and the opportunity to add experiences such as massage, surfing, or other local activities.
