Kasbah Tamadot
A romantic retreat in the foothills of the Atlas Mountains



A "kasbah" is an Islamic citadel that often provided a royal family with refuge – and refuge is precisely what Sir Richard Branson's Kasbah Tamadot offers.

The 28 guest rooms and suites are individually decorated with hand-carved woodwork, antique furniture and lighting by local artisanal talents, while ten exquisite Berber tents provide uniquely secluded comfort.
