BE Agafay

BE Agafay sits in the stone desert of Agafay, about 45 minutes from Marrakesh at the foot of the Atlas Mountains. The property has 10 well-spaced yurts, 6 bungalows, and one superior suite bungalow, set up for couples, friends, and families traveling together.

Each yurt leans into the desert setting rather than against it, with the flat, rocky terrain opening onto mountain views and dark skies good for stargazing. Fireplaces and a hot tub are on site, and the layout keeps units secluded from one another. Two pools anchor the property: The Hideaway serves resident guests with breakfast, optional lunch, small bites, and an included three-course dinner, while The Oasis is a day-pass pool and restaurant with a three-course Moroccan, Oriental, and international lunch menu plus a bar for drinks and snacks.

Beyond the pools, there's a spread of things to do without leaving the grounds: spa treatments, yoga sessions, pottery, quad or buggy runs through the dunes, and camel rides that end with a sunset aperitif on the property's sunset hill. The pace is built around slowing down, whether that means a quiet afternoon by the water or a half-day of desert activity.

Bookings run through BE Agafay's own site using Clock Software, and the property can be reached by phone for questions on availability, rates, or day-pass options for the pool and restaurant.
