Kasbah Tamadot – Marrakesch

Sir Richard Branson’s Moroccan Retreat, Kasbah Tamadot, was purchased by him in 1998 during one of his famous ballooning expeditions.  The retreat is a one hour drive from Marrakech, located near the village of Asni at the foothills of the Atlas Mountains and 1,320m above sea level and overlooks a valley whose river ebbs and flows with the seasons.  The retreat is ideally located for exploration of the mountains by foot, bike or mule.

Lodging

Kasbah Tamadot has 27 bedrooms and suites including nine luxury Berber Tents, some of which have private plunge pools. All are individually decorated using traditional Moroccan furnishings and antiques.

Spa

This Moroccan retreat is perfect for rest and relaxation.  The Asounfou Spa, meaning “to relax” in Berber, offers a full range of treatments for both men and women using exclusive products chosen for their pureness and quality. For a true Moroccan experience try a Hammam, where the skin is deeply cleansed, purified and softened with the traditional weekly Moroccan cleansing ritual.

Dining

With its intimate fireside bar and breathtaking terrace views, the stunning Kanoun Restaurant serves delicious local and international cuisine. The food combines local and international flavours, with home grown herbs and vegetables from the Kasbah Tamadot gardens. Dine al fresco around the candle lit reflecting pool, up on the rooftop terrace underneath the stars or somewhere private just for two!

Activities

Guests may be as relaxed or as adventurous as they like.  A number of Guided Excursions are available to keep you busy — spend the day in Marrakech and explore the city’s main attractions such as the Jemma El Fna Square and Koutoubia Mosque and Minaret to name but a few, or discover the beautiful Atlas region by foot, 4×4 or by mule.

On Cinema Nights, visitors to Kasbah Tamadot can now watch a selection of Moroccan-inspired films in the open-air under the stars. Guests will be issued with wireless headphones and can make themselves comfortable on the cushioned seating provided with cocktails at the ready.

Families

While families with children are welcome during select weeks during the year, the bulk of the seasons are adults-only to foster a relaxing and quiet environment.   Inquire about our Family Friendly Weeks.
