Kasbah Agafay Hotel and Spa

Summary

A grand renovated hilltop fort with stunning views over the desert and mountains. Kasbah Agafay Hotel and Spa feels far from the crowds, yet Marrakech is only 20 minutes’ drive away. Come here to experience camel riding, languishing on sumptuous sofas, relaxing in a hammam or cooking the perfect tagine.

Choose between rooms gathered around courtyards or tented suites with four-poster beds draped in antique textiles. Hand-crafted furniture and artefacts, colourful fabrics and mosaics are in every little nook. Such is the laid-back informality here that you can eat where you wish – in one of the numerous riads or terraces, on the ramparts or in the restaurant.

Enter the fragrant herb garden where a fantastic little kitchen is set up for cookery lessons. A similar sense of bold adventure is required for camel riding and mountain climbing, or you might prefer a spell in the meditation cave.
