Situated in the spectacular Atlas Mountains in Morocco only 50 minutes from Marrakech, the award-winning Kasbah Tamadot offers stunning views. To the north extends a steep river valley, with sheer rocky limestone and forested mountains on either side, in contrast to the view of the breathtaking snow-capped peaks of the Atlas Mountains on the southern side. To the east, across the river, you can see a traditional Berber village built into the side of the mountain. Within the protective grounds is a beautiful garden of fruit trees, a collection of cacti and a rambling rose garden.

Kasbah Tamadot employs local Berber staff from the surrounding villages, giving guests a sense of staying in a Moroccan home rather than a hotel.

The extensive grounds are filled with staircases, courtyards and gardens. Getting yourself orientated will be time consuming but exciting! On the ground level are two internal courtyards, an indoor pool, the Virgin Touch Salon, the Hammam and access to the outdoor pool and The Studio. A main stair leads up to a traditional Moroccan painted courtyard that surrounds a deep blue reflecting pool on the first floor. Opening from here are a series of bedrooms, a Guest Salon & Library and the restaurant. From our outdoor pool you can meander along pretty garden paths to our tennis courts.
