Join Lou for this 4 night Pilates & Yoga Retreat to Marrakesh. Located on the outskirts of Marrakesh, oozing authentic Moroccan glamour, Fawakay is a relaxed, secluded and enchanting retreat situated just a 20 minute drive from both the heart of Marrakech Medina and the airport - the perfect spot for relaxation.

The hotel cleverly combines the very best of a boutique hotel and private villa holiday is set in 3.5 acres of lush gardens, through which winding pebble paths lead to each villa. The gorgeous swimming pool area has extensive, luxurious poolside seating for both shade and sun lovers, as well as an expanse of grassy lawn with more seating and table tennis. The fabulous, expansive rooftop terrace with views over to the Atlas Mountains is the perfect spot for 2 daily Pilates & Yoga sessions with Lou and is open to all abilities, groups, couples and solo travellers.

Retreat Programme

There will be 2 classes each day.

The first class will be at 17:00 Wednesday evening followed by a delicious evening meal.

Each morning Lou will begin by taking you through a Pilates session at around 08:30 before breakfast and our Yoga session at 17:00 in time for sunset on the terrace. Each day will finish with dinner at around 19:30.

In-between classes, you have free time to relax and enjoy the facilities, or perhaps explore the local surroundings and what it has to offer.

Fawakay Villlas, Marrakesh

Relaxation is the speciality of this calming oasis a 15-minute drive from, but seemingly a world away, bustling Marrakech. Made up of five sand-hued villas and three eco-villa suites sprinkled around 3.5 acres of rose-filled gardens, this boutique complex promises pure relaxation and rejuvenation. Pebble pathways lead to the superbly appointed individual villas and suites, all of them designed to allow guests to be as private or social as they wish.

Classes and practices are held outdoors in the scented grounds, and guests can also avail themselves of the outdoor pool, rooftop terrace, spa, and hammam. A breakfast, lunch, and snack menu is available with authentic North African dishes prepared using fresh local ingredients by the resident chef.

When it comes to exploring, the owners run shuttle buses to Marrakech’s souks, while the nearby Atlas Mountains draw guests with their peaceful hiking trails, waterfalls, and Berber villages.
