ACCOMMODATION
Our home for the Retreat in Morocco will be a collection of intimate, traditional riads that embody the soul of Moroccan hospitality. In Marrakech, we will stay just a short walk from the famous Jemaa el-Fnaa square at Riad Magellan, a charming French-owned riad with six beautifully designed rooms. We will practice yoga by the riad pool.
In Fes, our stay will continue at Riad Anata, a stylish five-room property owned by a Belgian lady and located right at the entrance to the Medina. Both riads offer warm atmospheres, elegant interiors, and authentic Moroccan details that create the perfect sanctuary for rest and connection throughout the retreat. We will do our meditations in the lounge. For yoga we head out to the local cultural centre.
Accommodation is offered in single or twin ensuite rooms. Twin rooms are available only for two friends booking together.
