Sleeping at a Moroccan farm: Aghmat Lodge in Marrakesh

Top place for those who love animals, but also want to enjoy a well-deserved holiday by the pool. About half an hour outside Marrakesh you find Aghmat Lodge. A villa farm with swimming pool, horses, spacious rooms, a Moroccan kitchen and a parrot named Rico Verhoeven. After a few days in the bustling city, this is the perfect base for a real getaway recharge and a wonderful overnight stay. Welcome to the Moroccan interior.

 

Here you can roll straight from your bed into the swimming pool, take a morning walk along the horses and have breakfast in the courtyard. Rest, cuddle with the kittens and have a cup of coffee among the flowers, Aghmat Lodge has it all. We fell in love, and not just with the animals.

A delicious treat with everything in one. The driver will pick you up wherever you want and drive you straight through the interior to a somewhat remote village, with a lot more nature than the city of Marrakesh. Aghmat Lodge is a large country house with a modern feel, surrounded by orange trees, flowery plants and a domestic tranquility. Watch the sunset every day from the garden, have breakfast in your room and ultimately relax. This. Want to. You.

A warm welcome to Aghmat

Upon arrival you will be welcomed by the lovely Moroccan staff, who will proudly give you a tour of the spa, the luxurious beds, the swimming pool and a personal highlight: the animals. The great thing about this place is that the cats, horses, sheep, chickens and birds look super healthy and are well cared for. This is in contrast to the camels, donkeys and stray cats that abound in the busy city. The rooms are picobello clean and the garden is neatly maintained by the gardener. Oh and we haven't even mentioned the delicious Moroccan welcome cookies and tea. Enjoy!

Swimming, quad biking and touring

It is also available for the active ones among us who like to go out the staff from Aghmat Lodge enough organized, you're bored! There are a number of quads waiting for you under the canopy, so you can easily tour the sandy paths through the interior. The excursions to the Atlas Mountains are also highly recommended. When you return, you can dive straight into the pool while fresh couscous is prepared for you. We never want to leave here.
