Riad Taww'Ami

Bab Doukkala, MedinaTaww'Ami Collection

A restored 18th-century riad in the heart of the Medina - seven rooms gathered around a courtyard of water, citrus and quiet.

Behind an unmarked cedar door in the Bab Doukkala quarter, the noise of the souk falls away. A corridor of cool tadelakt opens onto a courtyard where a single fountain keeps time and bitter-orange trees scent the air.

We spent two years returning the house to itself - reviving the zellige by hand, lime-washing the walls in the old way, and furnishing the rooms with pieces commissioned from the artisans a few streets away.

Seven rooms, a rooftop that watches the Atlas turn pink at dusk, and a staff who remember how you take your mint tea. This is not a hotel. It is a home that happens to be yours for a while.

From the Concierge

While you are with us

Hammams and high passes, a table laid at home, the souks with someone who knows them — arranged by the house, for the days you are here

Agafay, an Evening in the Desert

Out to the stone desert as the heat softens. A short camel ride, dinner under canvas, and music around the fire while the stars come up.

Airport Transfers

A private car and a familiar face waiting at arrivals. From the runway to the riad door, not a word of negotiation.

A Morning in the Kitchen

Cook alongside the woman who feeds the house. You choose the spices, fold the pastry and lay the table, then sit down to everything you made.

Hammam & Massage Ritual

The bathing ritual as the house keeps it. Black soap and warm water, rhassoul clay, then an hour of being entirely cared for, finishing with argan oil pressed in the Souss.

Hot Air Balloon at Sunrise

Up before the city wakes, lifted over the plain as the sun comes over the Atlas. Forty five minutes of complete quiet, then breakfast laid on the ground.

Imlil & the High Atlas

An hour from the red city and a world away. A walk among the walnut terraces, lunch with a mountain family, and the peaks of Toubkal over your shoulder.
