Hands of Marrakech
From Clay to Gold - Artisan Immersion Wellness Travel
Your room in the Medina is waiting | October 2 - 12, 2026
Every option below gives you the same ten days — the artisan workshops, the palace dinners, the morning movement sessions, the riad courtyard with its pool and quiet corners. The difference is simply your room and how you'd like to pay.
Our home in Marrakech is a converted caravanserai — originally built as a riad for merchant caravans, which means the rooms are far more spacious than a typical Medina stay. The building has been transformed into a boutique hotel with just 14 rooms and suites, each one reflecting the artistry of the place itself: hand-carved details, traditional Moroccan textiles, and a beautiful use of light. On-site you'll find a hammam spa, a lovely café, an indoor heated pool, and a rooftop terrace.
This is an intimate space. Some room categories have only one available. If you have a preference, don't wait. Spaces are selling fast!
All-inclusive rates from $5,495 per person double occupancy.
Reserve your space with $1,000. Monthly payment plans available. Click an option below for more information.

What is the pacing on this trip? This is a doing and learning journey. That being said, we have free time every afternoon. You will probably want to fill that time with hammam (spa), shopping, etc. The Marrakech Medina is right outside our door! It’s a nice pace.

Art, craft, culture, and deep indulgence in the Marrakech Medina. 11 days / 10 nights, limited to 12 guests.
YOUR ACCOMMODATIONS
Our home in Marrakech is a converted caravanserai — originally built as a riad for merchant caravans, which means the rooms are far more spacious than a typical Medina stay. The building has been lovingly transformed into a boutique hotel with just 14 rooms and suites. On-site you'll find a hammam spa, a lovely café, an indoor heated pool, and a rooftop terrace.
Every room and suite features marble and hand-crafted tile ensuite bathrooms, individually controlled heat and air conditioning, and the kind of Moroccan artistry you can feel the moment you walk in. Each room is uniquely beautiful.
Our location is in the prestigious Dar el Bacha neighborhood — one of the most storied and exclusive corners of the Marrakech Medina.
EVERY GUEST RECEIVES
10 days / 10 nights of fully guided experience — artisan workshops with master craftspeople, palace dinners, daily morning movement and meditation, a Moroccan cooking class, expert-guided Medina tours, visits to the Majorelle Gardens, Berber Museum, and Yves Saint Laurent Museum, and all airport transfers and local transportation. All meals included except one flexible lunch.
Full rates are all-inclusive with exceptions. See the inclusions/exclusions list on the main retreat page under FAQs.
