Marrakech:
You will stay in our NOSADE Riad and breathe in the mystical history of Morocco´s most vibrant city!
Located in the Medina – Marrakech´s historical old town – our Riad is truly a living relict of
the tales of thousand and one nights. Belonging to the oldest houses in town – it still partly inhabits the original and stunning architecture of the 19th century – seducing its residents with original tiles, as also a charming fountain and woodcrafts in the patio.
Live between old walls and experience an energizing magic, that was eventually spread more than 150 years ago by one of the many women of Marrakech´s Pacha living her exclusive, but yet very private life in the Riad.
On top of this very private Riad experience – you will have a spacious rooftop for our outdoor yoga practice, afternoon hangouts, and sunbaths, as well as fabulous tasty food.
Regular accommodation happens to be in a spacious shared triple room (same gender) with ensuite bathrooms & free wifi access. Single or double accommodation is bookable upon request / availability and with subject to surcharges.
Agdz, Drâa Valley:
You will be accommodated in the beautiful Bab el Oued Ecolodge deep inside the heart of the Draa Valley. Right in the middle of a huge palm grove in a 5000 sqm wide oasis, where many species of flowers and fruits perfume the air day & night, Bab el Oued guarantees enchanting surroundings during your stay.
Bab el Oued Morocco Ecolodge proposes 6 independent unique bedrooms. Each bedroom offers full comfort and a mixture of traditional materials for your senses delight.
Merzouga:
You are accommodated in a traditional Kasbah (Hotel) on the only hill there overlooking the Sahara before we are heading inside the desert and once we returned from the desert. The Kasbah is family-run, welcoming and has exceptionally nice rooms with terraces facing the dunes.
Desert Camp:
Traditional Berber tents equipped with comfortable beds with mattresses will serve as our housing right in the middle of the desert. The camp furthermore holds a kitchen, a restaurant, and toilets. And for sure enough space for serving us comfortably for our daily yoga practice.
Marrakech holds an international Airport Marrakech Menara. Transportation from and to the airport is arranged by NOSADE once you submitted your flight details.
Please note: Flights are not included in the quoted price.
Any transportation within the country is arranged and included in the stated price.
What does Retreat stand for on a trip with NOSADE?
Accept what is. Escape daily routines, find inner peace, inner balance, and inner tranquility. Morocco will challenge you to do so – with all its sounds, smells & (for us Westerners) sometimes unusual manners. We encourage you to open up for all those impressions.
Two daily Yoga and meditation sessions in Morocco’s mystical surroundings will be accompanying and supporting this experience.
