Amajena is a real mirage in the desert, an oasis of tranquility and peace on the outskirts of Marrakech.

Amajena, a fashionable resort is located just a good 20 minutes drive away from the medina and Marrakesh airport. Here, not far from the chaos of the city center, in the company of luxury hotels, there is a beautiful resort. A mighty mountain range rises in the background Atlas, while you immerse yourself in the tranquility of the resort, far away from the maddening hustle and bustle of the city.

Amanjena is located in a Moorish pink palace designed by Ed Tuttle, architect of the famous Aman group. With marble columns, countless reflecting pools and clay walls, the air here is filled with the scent of orange blossoms and jasmine. The color palette calms down, the chirping of birds is heard. The 13-hectare resort offers guests enough privacy to retreat and spend their holidays in intimacy.

Guests stay in pavilions, veritable little palaces with dramatic domes made of dark wood. The rooms are equipped with Berber carpets and comfortable double beds for the best sleep. The real attraction of the resort is the Pavilions Piscine with an extremely large terrace and a private pool. On cooler evenings, the staff on the terraces make a fire in the fireplaces, while you snuggle up in your bathrobe on the comfortable sofas or under the sheets.

The à la carte breakfast by the pool is the perfect way to start the day. Choose from a freshly squeezed juice, smoothie or immune boosting shot for an early morning dose of health. Breakfast consists of delicious Moroccan specialties with dates and pancakes, also with argan oil and honey. You can dine at Nama Japanese Restaurant, which serves izakaya-style dishes, or at the more popular main restaurant, which is an interesting hybrid of Moroccan and Italian cuisine.
