INFORMATION FOR GUESTS VISITING KASBAH TAMADOT

Overview and setting – Situated in the spectacular Atlas Mountains in Morocco, the award-winning Kasbah Tamadot was bought by Sir Richard Branson during one of his famous ballooning expeditions. To the north extends a steep river valley with sheer rocky limestone and forested mountains, contrasting with the view of the snow-capped peaks of the Atlas Mountains on the southern side. To the east, across the river, you can see the traditional Berber village of Tansghart built into the side of the mountain. Kasbah Tamadot employs local Berber staff from the surrounding villages, giving guests a sense of staying in a Moroccan home rather than a hotel.

Where we are? – Kasbah Tamadot is approximately 45-minutes drive from Marrakech Airport and approximately 1 hour from central Marrakech in the Atlas Mountains just beyond the village of Asni. We can arrange luxury car transfers between Marrakech airport and other points in the city to Kasbah Tamadot. You can also rent a car if you wish to drive yourself, and all the roads to us are sealed. Helicopter transfers can be arranged on request.

Guest rooms – Each of the 28 rooms and suites has been individually decorated to reflect the beautiful architecture of the building and features antiques from all over the world, marrying the traditional charm of Moroccan design with contemporary elements.

The Main Building has 15 rooms and suites. The Master Suite, located a few minutes walk away at the end of the garden, has three rooms including the Deluxe Pool Suite, and is generally hired privately as a 3 bedroom cottage. All rooms are equipped with the usual items you would expect of a luxury hotel such as bath robes, CD-players, hairdryers, etc. Televisions with DVD players also are available on request.

History – Kasbah Tamadot was the former home of Luciano Tempo who purchased the property and filled it with beautiful antiques from India, Africa and the Far East. In 1998 Richard Branson went to Morocco with the goal of circumnavigating the globe in a hot air balloon. Whilst there, his parents found a beautiful Kasbah and eventually convinced him to purchase the property. Kasbah Tamadot is now one of Morocco’s most sought after hideaways, and its peaceful surroundings are reflected in the name, which means ‘soft breeze’ in Berber.
