For the wellness traveller seeking the comforts of home, privacy and grounding, Villa Maroc is a sanctuary. Located in Essaouira, a quiet beach town on the Atlantic coast of Morocco, the riad is the perfect luxurious backdrop for creatives seeking stillness, pampering, and immersion into nature. To unwind, book a traditional hammam experience followed by the Swiri massage. If a more secluded stay is what you’re after, Villa Maroc’s second property, Les Jardins, is a countryside haven located just outside Essaouira. There, you can book a personal wellness retreat along with private yoga classes, spa treatments and a private beach picnic.
