Are you a Yoga or Creative Retreat Host?

We invite you to bring your community to Aitisfoul, a place where the silence of the Sahara meets the warmth of Moroccan hospitality - an expansive, grounding environment ideal for deep practice, creativity, transformation, and connection.

Located on the wild edge of the desert, Aitisfoul offers retreat leaders a rare blend of soulful stillness, cultural richness, and the spaciousness that yoga asks for. Our kasbah, with its earth-toned walls and sweeping desert vistas, has been lovingly restored as a sanctuary for slow living, mindful gathering, and embodied exploration.



experience desert life . . .

  • lodging

    Our air-conditioned rooms and suites are designed for comfort on the desert’s edge, blending simplicity with thoughtful details. Each space offers flexible bed configurations to suit your retreat — from twin setups ideal for sharing, to queen or king arrangements. Cool, quiet, the rooms provide a restful sanctuary after days spent exploring or creating at Aitisfoul. A place to restore, drift, and dream.

  • shala

    Our 132-square-metre yoga shala offers a spacious, light-filled sanctuary on the desert’s edge. The floor is lined with soft Beni Ourain carpets and scattered poufs, creating a grounding warmth beneath every practice.
    Yoga mats and blankets are thoughtfully provided, allowing guests to arrive as they are and sink directly into stillness, movement, and the quiet magic of this place.

  • atelier

    Our large, air-conditioned studio is a flexible creative haven for artists, writers, and makers of all kinds. Outfitted with eight sturdy metal tables and eighteen chairs, it offers room to spread out, experiment, and let your imagination roam. Whether you’re collaging, stitching, writing, or working in mixed media, this spacious workspace invites you to settle in, exhale, and fully.

  • sunset lounge

    Our sunset viewing deck is an open-air sanctuary where the day slows into something almost sacred. Scattered with poufs and daybeds, it’s the perfect perch to watch the desert soften—ochres fading to rose, then indigo—until the first stars quietly appear. A place to exhale, to listen, to witness the sky change its mind right in front of you.

  • tea area

    Our covered tea area is a shaded oasis designed for slow moments and quiet connection. Outfitted with daybeds and low tables, it offers a cool, inviting refuge throughout the day — a place to sip mint tea, journal, or simply rest while the desert hums softly around you. A gentle pause between adventures.

  • pool & area

    Our pool area is a sun-soaked haven framed by palapas and comfortable sunbeds, offering the perfect balance of shade and warmth. Whether you’re cooling off in the turquoise water, lounging with a book, or simply watching the desert light dance across the surface, this tranquil space invites you to slow down and savour the stillness of Aitisfoul.

Why Aitisfoul?

Because the desert has a way of opening people—softening, expanding, and bringing them back to themselves. Days here move at the pace of breath. Sunrises paint the kasbah walls gold; evenings end under star-washed skies. Your guests will land in a place that supports both inner stillness and creative awakening.

Aitisfoul is not just a location - it’s an experience of presence.
