Rating8.1Adults OnlyAdults-only (16+) activity programming covers fitness, racquet sports, daily shows, and the shuttle to Marrakech. No children's programming. The hammam and sauna are included without booking a paid spa treatment — a meaningful freebie. The shuttle to the Medina is the activity that generates the most value.

Marrakech is an inland city — no beach access. The five pools and garden setting are the leisure infrastructure. Guests who need the beach for their holiday should look at Agadir (2.5 hour drive) or choose a coastal Moroccan resort instead.
