About retreat

Inspired by the nomad spirit, a symbol of freedom and exploration, our philosophy is simple: it's about stepping out of your comfort zone to truly reconnect with yourself. By embracing the unknown, we encourage every woman to break free from her routine, immerse herself in a different culture, and find in this experience a unique way to reconnect with her true self and nurture a deep sense of inner balance.

Through yoga, meditation, and mindfulness practices, you'll slow down, restore your inner harmony, and get back to what really matters. Nestled in the heart of Essaouira’s MEDINA, we draw inspiration from Morocco’s rich cultural heritage, offering an authentic, welcoming space where sharing and kindness are at the heart of everything.

Nature plays a key role in this journey. Between the ocean, the dunes, and the breeze of Essaouira, the elements soothe the soul and recharge the spirit.

By blending well-being, cultural immersion, and a deep connection with nature, we promise a one-of-a-kind transformative experience, shared with women from all walks of life, an experience that will stay with you forever.

Program

Stay in the heart of the medina in an authentic riad, fully privatized for your comfort. A perfect blend of traditional charm and modern amenities, this peaceful retreat offers elegant, cozy suites, a sunlit terrace with a jacuzzi, and a dedicated team ready to cater to your every need. For an extra touch of adventure, spend a magical night in a bivouac and immerse yourself in the authentic Bedouin lifestyle amidst breathtaking surroundings.  

Start your days gently with practices designed to harmonize body and mind, before being swept away by the magic of Essaouira. Stroll through lively alleys, explore the bustling souks, or embark on an adventure in the nearby dunes. Dive into the local culture by learning to prepare a tagine alongside an Amazigh family and get a glimpse into their rural way of life.  

Indulge in relaxation with a traditional hammam experience or savor a mint tea under the sun. Every detail has been thoughtfully arranged so you can fully embrace the moment while we take care of everything else. Prepare to create unforgettable memories and expect a few surprises along the way!  

We also offer an experience rooted in meaning and purpose: you'll have the chance to support local initiatives through a meeting with a partner association, with a donation from each participant already included in the package.
