Lunches

There’s truly no other oasis like ours near Marrakech. Usually, to enjoy a setting this serene, travelers have to drive hours into the Sahara. But here, just 40 minutes from central Marrakech, Dunes & Desert invites you to step into a hidden world—a lush palm oasis in the heart of the Agafay Desert. Surrounded by mountains, canyons, and rocky desert hills, our 10-hectare oasis offers tranquility, space, and privacy, even at peak times. Nestled under traditional Berber tents or shaded palm trees, we serve a homemade Moroccan lunch crafted with care: slow-cooked tajines, aromatic couscous, fresh seasonal salads, and homemade bread, all paired with mint tea and the warmth of our team.

Our Agafay Desert lunches are ideal for:

Couples seeking a quiet and romantic escape
• Families with children, who can safely enjoy the wide, open desert surroundings
• Groups of friends or solo travelers looking for a unique midday retreat
• Corporate events and private groups, with customizable services

We always prioritize guest comfort and privacy, whether you’re here for a tranquil moment or a group celebration.

Options include:

Lunch-only experience: enjoy a traditional Moroccan meal and relax in the peaceful atmosphere of our oasis
• Lunch + leisure: take a nap, read, or walk to a nearby Berber village in the Agafay hills
• Lunch + adventure: combine your meal with a quad ride, buggy tour, or camel excursion for a full desert experience

Round-trip transportation from Marrakech can be arranged to make your visit seamless and worry-free.

Join us for an unforgettable lunch in the Agafay Desert oasis—a hidden gem at the edge of Marrakech where time slows down and nature takes center stage.
