As Morocco embraces the return of the international community on which so many livelihoods depend, Amanjena (meaning ‘peaceful paradise’) is welcoming guests to its palatial resort situated just outside Morocco’s Unesco-protected city of Marrakech.
Surrounded by palm and olive trees, guests can experience the warm hospitality and soulful spirit of Morocco and enjoy the latest offerings and signature experiences from the tranquil oasis near the fabled Red City:
New Pool Pavilions
In October, Amanjena unveiled eight refreshed Pavilion Piscines, enhancing its collection of 40 Pavilions and Maisons. With vaulted ceilings and elegant Moorish-inspired interiors, eight one- bedroom Pavilions have undergone extensive courtyard renovations to introduce hea ted swimming pools (7.7m/3m) and traditional pillared gazebos perfectly suited to lounging.
Ideal for couples seeking space and seclusion in a palatial setting, king-sized beds and green marble from Ouarzazate create an opulenta esthetic, while the new heated swimming pools in the Pavilion’s private courtyard garden offer views stretching across the olive groves and palms, extending to the High Atlas Mountains on the horizon.
Moroccan Hospitality with a Local Berber Family
A ritual at the heart of Morocco’s rich hospitality tradition, guests can experience the warm hospitality of the Brahim family in their Moroccan home over a homecooked Berber meal. Sidi Brahim and his son, Said, provide local knowledge during a walking tour through L’Arbaa Tighdouine, a hidden village in the Atlas Mountains surrounded by lush landscapes, before inviting guests into their traditional Berber home.
