Amanjena – A Palatial Retreat at Morocco’s Cultural Crossroads

Aman Hotels and ResortsAmanjena

At the edge of Marrakech’s medina, where the Red City meets the desert winds, lies a sanctuary carved from rose-pink stone—Amanjena. Shaded by olive trees and framed by reflecting pools, this resort unfolds like a Moroccan fairytale brought to life.

With the High Atlas Mountains on the horizon and the hum of the old town just minutes away, Amanjena is perfectly placed for travelers who seek both immersion and solitude. It reopens its doors on 5 October 2025, inviting guests back into a world of silence, light, and balance.

Timeless Moroccan Design, Reimagined

The architecture is unmistakably Moroccan—arched colonnades, zellij-tiled fountains, and domes that catch the morning sun. Yet inside, there’s a sense of openness that feels distinctly Aman.

Each structure is set apart, giving space for air, movement, and thought. Terraces catch the late-afternoon breeze, while gardens stretch between courtyards like open-air salons.

Villas Made for Privacy and Peace

Within Amanjena’s grounds are 40 villas and pavilions, each offering the kind of privacy that’s hard to find in Marrakech. Whether you’re in a one-bedroom pavilion or a larger family villa, the sense of space is immediate.

Private pools, quiet courtyards, and shaded gazebos offer a daily rhythm of sun and shade, rest and reflection. Interiors are elegantly simple—vaulted ceilings, cool stone floors, and details that nod to Morocco’s rich craft heritage.

Every room becomes a retreat in itself.

Flavors that Speak of Place

Dining at Amanjena is rooted in the land. From the saffron-scented lamb tagine to freshly baked Moroccan breads, meals reflect centuries of tradition—prepared with finesse and served without formality.

Guests can dine indoors beneath carved wood ceilings or outside beside tranquil water features. For a lighter touch, the Japanese Grill near the pool offers clean, seasonal fare in a breezy garden setting.

The experience is more than culinary—it’s sensory.

Wellness Rooted in Ritual

At the heart of Amanjena’s wellness offering is the traditional hammam—a ritual that soothes both body and spirit. Steam, clay, and gentle exfoliation are followed by deep rest in cool, dimly lit chambers.

Guests can also enjoy massages, herbal therapies, and daily movement sessions designed to balance and restore. Whether you’re beginning the day with yoga or ending it in the hammam, wellness here is gentle and grounding.

Marrakech and Beyond

Just a short drive from the medina, Amanjena makes it easy to discover Marrakech’s layered charm—its royal palaces, lush gardens, and artisan souks. But the experiences extend beyond the city.

Guests can journey into the Agafay Desert for a sunset camel ride or follow mountain trails through the High Atlas, guided by locals who know every bend and breeze.

It’s not about sightseeing. It’s about connecting—with land, culture, and memory.

A Destination for Celebrations

Few settings are as naturally suited for celebration as Amanjena. The resort’s tranquil atmosphere and grand scale make it ideal for weddings, anniversaries, and private gatherings.

Dine beneath a canopy of stars, host cocktails beside the central basin, or gather in a traditional Caidal Tent with live musicians and Moroccan cuisine. Whatever the moment, it will be remembered not for extravagance, but for meaning.

The Return of a Moroccan Icon

As Amanjena reopens this October, it does so with renewed energy but familiar soul. It remains a place to reflect, to pause, and to rediscover the value of space—both physical and emotional.

If you’re planning a visit to Morocco’s most poetic city, early inquiries are recommended to secure your preferred dates.
Other Aman sanctuaries are also ready when you are.
