It may only be across a narrow strait from Spain, but Morocco feels a whole world away. It's labyrinthed medieval cities survive, intact, unchanged and quite as lively as ever. Berber, Arabic and Moorish cultures entwine, tempting technicolor markets assault the senses, luxury sits comfortably next to rustic. There is no place on earth quite like this.

Voted 'Best hotel for exotic seclusion' in 2009 by Harpers Bazaar, Tigmi is a 19th century boutique lodge, 12 km from Marrakech and with stunning views of the Anti-Atlas mountains. Our base for five indulgent days of pampering, we'll blend spa therapy with creative inspiration, so you can spoil yourself rotten on the suite of organic treatments, including anti-aging galvanic spas, hammams, body wraps, yoga & pilates, plus learn how to shoot a great photo, understand the basics of life drawing and cook up Moroccan delicacies.

It is the worlds first creative holistic retreat. Guaranteed to satiate any body, soul or creative whimsy.

ITINERARY

DAY ONE

Meeting you directly from the plane, we'll whisk you in minutes to our resort, your base for five days of rejuvenation. After a welcoming gourmet lunch, you'll head right into the traditional Moroccan Hammam, followed by your choice of treatments from our extensive menu. After a quick swim, we'll dine in the opulent hall and get a taste of the food to come.

DAY TWO

What better way to start your new energised body with a bit of morning Yoga and meditation, followed by another choice of treatment. After a swim and a light lunch, you are now ready to nourish your creative side with an inspiring session learning the basics of photography, before taking in a flick at our cinema under the stars.

DAY THREE

A quick sesssion of morning pilates to ease out all those last remaining little niggles then sink into a Rejuvannescence facial, body wrap or hair-tonic treatment. After lunch we will take you on a tour of Marrakechi souks, kasbahs and monuments, before Sex-and-the-City style cocktails in our opulent rooftop hideaway.

DAY FOUR

After a heady night in Marrakech, rebalance your body and mind with yoga and meditation. Once re-awakened, you can blow away those toxins with a massage or treatment. Lunch by a stunning lake overlooking the Atlas, then awaken the artist in you with a life drawing class.

Pilates to stretch and ground you, a nourishing breakfast and a last pampering treatment to really spoil you before you make your way home.
