Our Oasis in the Heart of the Agafay Desert
The only palm oasis just 45 minutes from the Red City
Just 45 minutes from Marrakech, our private oasis in the Agafay desert is the only palm oasis of its size so easy to reach from the city. No need for long hours on the road to the Sahara: here you enjoy the luxury of the desert, without the distance. Set between mountains, wind-carved canyons and mineral hills, the oasis covers more than 10 hectares. Its dozens of palm trees create a cool, peaceful haven, unique in all of Agafay, perfect for a complete escape. Under our traditional Berber tents or in the shade of the trees, everyone enjoys an intimate, quiet space, however busy the day. Savour generous, home-style Moroccan cuisine: slow-cooked tagines, fragrant couscous, seasonal salads, homemade bread and mint tea.
Our oasis is ideal for:
- A contemplative break after a quad or camel ride
- A traditional Moroccan lunch by the dry riverbed
- A buggy excursion with a dramatic arrival through desert trails
- A walk through the dry river, surprisingly alive with birds, plants, and contrasts
- A romantic dinner under the stars, by lantern light and open fire
- Or simply to enjoy the silence of the desert, carried on the wind through the palms

How do you get there?
Many of our activities include transportation from Marrakech. Our drivers will take you there with a smile and kindness. If the activity does not include transportation, please ask our booking office about your options. We have shuttles that run several times a day.
Alternatively, you can arrive by car, via the Dam road (P2009 – Route d’Oasiria), then head for Tamesloht. Once you’ve passed through the town, simply go to the end of the road (P2014) and then turn left onto the road alongside the wadi (P2013). After approx. 8.5 km, find the Dunes & Desert sign pointing to the right and turn in that direction. Follow the signs.
