Sir Richard Branson’s Kasbah Tamadot Officially Re-Opens

Kasbah Tamadot, Sir Richard’s Branson’s Moroccan retreat in the High Atlas Mountains officially reopens today, following a year-long restoration. The hotel that forms part of the exclusive collection of luxury properties from Virgin Limited Edition has been partially closed for the past year, while it was rebuilt following the devastating earthquake that occurred in the region.

Famed for its incredible Berber hospitality, with 100% of its staff Moroccan, the hotel re-opens with the main building fully restored, a brand-new second restaurant named Asayss and six brand-new unique and stunning Riads. Each built on a beautiful new landscaped open space with stunning views of the Atlas Mountains – increasing the size of the original property from 28 to 42 Rooms

The striking newly designed three-bedroom Riads sleep up to 10 guests with each bedroom featuring its own private bathroom, lounge area and terrace, with the unique addition of a showstopping Rooftop Tented Suite, featuring a hot tub on the spacious roof terrace – creating a spectacular and modern take on a traditional Riad rooftop. Each Riad will also provide guests with their own private pool area, with all the luxuries and renowned-Berber hospitality of the main hotel equally available on their doorstep. Individually decorated in traditional Moroccan style, the interiors feature soft-furnishings hand-made by artisans from the local Berber community supported by The Eve Branson Foundation. The Riad rooms and suites are available to book both individually and collectively. Booking an entire Riad for exclusive use will make a welcome addition for families or groups looking for privacy, with all the benefits of staying at one of Morocco’s most authentic hotels in the High Atlas Mountains.

The stunning new Riads will add a further room type to Kasbah Tamadot’s impressive accommodation, renowned for its iconic and luxury Berber Tents. Each tent has its own private terrace with space for outdoor dining, with some featuring private hot tubs. The main infinity pool area remains as one of the hotel’s most striking features surrounded by 360-degree views of the High Atlas Mountains and guests are able to make the most of the local spa treatments including a traditional Hammam, as well as authentic Moroccan cooking lessons and guided hiking and cycling in the surrounding Atlas Mountains.
