Details of this retreat

NOMADINA retreats are designed for all women seeking well-being, adventure, and disconnection.

Whether you're looking for moments of relaxation, spiritual renewal, personal exploration, or an enriching travel experience, our retreats are crafted to offer you a unique, authentic, and inspiring space.

Regardless of your age or level of experience in yoga, meditation, or other activities, our retreats are open to all who wish to recharge and create unforgettable memories while discovering Morocco.

Stay in the heart of the medina in an authentic riad, fully privatized for your comfort. A perfect blend of traditional charm and modern amenities, this peaceful retreat offers elegant, cozy suites, a sunlit terrace with a jacuzzi, and a dedicated team ready to cater to your every need. For an extra touch of adventure, spend a magical night in a bivouac and immerse yourself in the authentic Bedouin lifestyle amidst breathtaking surroundings.

Start your days gently with practices designed to harmonize body and mind, before being swept away by the magic of Essaouira. Stroll through lively alleys, explore the bustling souks, or embark on an adventure in the nearby dunes. Dive into the local culture by learning to prepare a tagine alongside an Amazigh family and get a glimpse into their rural way of life.

Indulge in relaxation with a traditional hammam experience or savor a mint tea under the sun. Every detail has been thoughtfully arranged so you can fully embrace the moment while we take care of everything else. Prepare to create unforgettable memories and expect a few surprises along the way!

NOMADINA is also an experience rooted in meaning and purpose: you'll have the chance to support local initiatives through a meeting with a partner association, with a donation from each participant already included in the package.
