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.

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.
