It sits on the edge of the sheltered Oualidia Lagoon (great for beginners). Outside the lagoon is the Atlantic and a stretch of coast considered one of the world’s finest surfing spots for pros. The hotel has teamed up with the excellent Surfland Surfcamp to offer surfing lessons to guests of all levels of experience (from £21pp)."</p><p>What sport to you like most when on the wild beaches of Oualidia?

Are the waves too rough and wild to swim, or too tame to surf? Is it safe for women to sunbathe alone on them without getting hassled? Are the beaches easy or tricky to get to? Is there somewhere really cool to stay nearby? The places we have listed we think tick all the right boxes. We love small, individual,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.elle.com/uk/life-and-culture/travel/g23050000/the-best-luxury-london-hotels/">boutique hotels</a>&nbsp;- each with something special about them: food, design, location ... and ideally within sight and sound of the waves.

Keeping your skin fresh and dewy this close to the Sahara requires extreme measures, and Berbers have stuck to more or less the same beauty regime for centuries – steam cleansing in a hammam, followed by a thorough exfoliation, a mud mask made of dried roses and a coating of emollient argan oil.

La Sultana’s staff rank among the finest purveyors of hospitality in the city. Doing this is harder than it looks when there is such an array of facilities to manage, including a pool, solarium with sun beds and service, and a pink-hued spa with bathing pools set amid a colonnaded hammam which conjures visions of Cleopatra at bath time.<br></p><p>For more information, browse the Spa menu&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lasultanahotels.com/pdfs/La-Sultana-Hotels-Brochure-Spa-2.pdf">https://www.lasultanahotels.com/pdfs/La-Sultana-Hotels-Brochure-Spa-2.pdf</a></p><p></p><p><b>LA SULTANA HOTELS - True

			'BlogPost__i18n__body' => '<p><a href="https://www.lasultanahotels.com/publications">We are thrilled to share another VOGUE article about Oualidia </a>written by&nbsp;<a href="https://www.vogue.com/contributor/lane-nieset">LANE NIESET</a></p>

<p>"On the two-hour drive from the Casablanca airport, the landscape doesn’t change much. Not that I’m complaining. There’s something otherworldly about Morocco’s sea of caramel-colored sand dunes. The driver takes a quick right turn and starts off-roading, weaving around rocks on a narrow dirt path. When he suddenly stops, I blink my jetlagged eyes. A Moorish, stone-covered fort—the village’s only luxury hotel, palace-style&nbsp;<a href="/oualidia">La Sultana Oualidia</a>—stands guard in front of a lagoon, the sea roaring with foam-topped waves in the distance.</p>

<p>I’d heard whispers about Oualidia but had yet to meet anyone who had actually visited the village. Bordered by the Atlantic Ocean on one side and&nbsp;a saltwater lagoon on the other,&nbsp;Oualidia is a paradise of pink flamingos and oyster&nbsp;farms—the&nbsp;place locals gather for straight-from-the-sea shellfish (making it known as Morocco's oyster capital) and a glass of crisp, Moroccan white wine. In the 1940s, King Mohammed V built his summer palace along the water, decreeing Morocco’s first royal beach. The palace is now empty, but guards still protect the royal ruins, which blend in amongst the villas that dot the rust-red cliffs.</p>

<p>“For Moroccans, Oualidia is the high-end seaside destination that used to be home to the royal family, and since then, many wealthy families have followed,” explains La Sultana Oualidia’s head concierge, Nabil. Just as Saint-Tropez draws jetsetters each summer, chic Marrakshis and Casablancais still mimic the royals in August, descending on the under-the-radar surf town that’s quickly becoming the Montauk of Morocco. It’s one of the country’s best-kept surf secrets (the current king’s kids even come here to surf)—and since temperatures never dip below 64 degrees, you can hit the waves year-round.</p>

<p>It’s early November and there’s a slight chill in the air as we step on the motorboat and whisk across the lagoon to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.facebook.com/pg/SURFLAND.SURFCAMP/">Surfland</a>, a Quiksilver-sponsored surf camp started in the 1990s, where many of Morocco’s pros train, and where masters like Tom Carroll and Ross Clarke-Jones come to surf. “The site remains preserved from the masses of surfers, compared to spots in the south like Imsouane or Taghazout, where it's overcrowded,” says Surfland’s founder, Laurent Miramon. “The advantage of Oualidia is the bay, which is like a natural wave garden; whatever the size of the swell, you are guaranteed surf every day.”</p>

<p>We zip up our wetsuits and jump back on the boat, heading to a beginner-friendly spot in the center of the lagoon. Glancing at the waves crashing against the portal of pale rocks opening to the sea in the distance, I take a second to shake off my nerves before the instructor gently glides my board through the clear-as-glass water, shouting an encouraging “Allez!” Go!</p>

<p>Waves roll slowly, offering beginners plenty of opportunities to practice rising to their feet and riding to shore, while more advanced surfers cross over into the Atlantic, vying for a place at famous surf spot “Les Tomates,” named after the neighboring tomato farm. In spring and fall, birdwatchers flock to the lagoon and its salt marshes (a natural reserve) on boat safaris to see over 400 species, from white egrets to pink flamingoes that make the migration on the east-Atlantic route.</p>

<p>Red-and-green-painted fishing boats bob on the water as we cruise around the crescent-shaped lagoon to another one of its claims-to-fame: oysters. Modest, whitewashed buildings outfitted with Tiffany blue-colored shutters line the shore, housing restaurants and oyster farms. Seven farms drive the region’s oyster production, one of the most famous being&nbsp;Maison de l’Ostréa, which produces 200 tons of shellfish per year.</p>

<p>There’s more to Oualidia than oysters, Nabil is quick to remind us as we hike across a sandy dune where a photoshoot-worthy picnic sits tucked beneath honey-colored cliffs. Rattan-topped stools and a white-tableclothed table greet us under a tent supported solely by sticks, a beachfront version of a Bedouin camp.&nbsp;<a href="/oualidia">La Sultana Oualidia’s</a>&nbsp;culinary team, meanwhile, is prepping a seaside barbecue worthy of a royal reception. First to arrive: platters of freshly shucked oysters, sourced from the neighboring farms we just visited. Next, the cook presents spider crabs the size of coconuts, so large they are nearly double the width of his palm. A light, floral white wine from&nbsp;Val d’Argan, near the port town of&nbsp;Essaouira&nbsp;where camels plow the organic vines, pairs perfectly with the briny oysters, leaving us with a nice midday buzz.</p>

<p>While Essaouira’s UNESCO-listed medina (whose 18th-century ramparts form the backdrop of Astapor, the Red City in&nbsp;<em>Game of Thrones</em>) and beach resorts may be a more common pairing with Marrakech, Oualidia’s noticeable lack of hotels is part of the village’s charm. Besides La Sultana Oualidia, the family-run&nbsp;L’Hippocampe&nbsp;(now managed by the owner’s son) offers 23 contemporary rooms that feel like a laid-back beach bungalow (think beautifully tiled terraces overlooking the lagoon). On Saturdays, visitors make the trek by donkey carriage to the weekly souk, or market. Others head off in search of another treasure—traditional pottery—hand-crafted in the fishing port town of Safi, the “land of potters,” located an hour’s drive from Oualidia (and a popular surf spot for its wave dubbed “The Garden”—Morocco’s most powerful tube wave—which many consider to be the best in Africa).</p>

<p>Once you wrap up a day on the waves, soothe your muscles in the Sultana’s cathedral-inspired spa composed entirely of stone. Morocco is the land of argan oil (you can buy some of the purest right from the pharmacy, or herboriste), which works wonders for everything from your hair to your skin, especially when applied in massage form after a full-body scrub in a hammam, Morocco’s answer to the Turkish bath. After taking part in this traditional ritual, I strolled down a lantern-lined path to the sand as the sun started to set over the lagoon. Just when I thought there couldn’t be a scene more picturesque, I stumbled upon my dinner “table” that evening: hand-weaved carpets sprawled across the sand under a Berber tent, where wicker baskets held another Moroccan tradition, tajine."</p>

<p>Why Oualidia, Morocco Should Be on Your Honeymoon Radar This Year? by BRIDES USA</p>

<p>Moroccan charm + the beach = what could be better?&nbsp;</p>

<p data-reactid="135">"When you think of the North African country of&nbsp;Morocco, booming cities like Marrakesh and Fes probably come to mind—along with sights and smells of souks overflowing with treasures—but there’s one often overlooked coastal village that’s ideal for a romantic getaway for two, and that’s Oualidia.</p>

<p data-reactid="139">This lagoon-shaped habitat is nestled in between El Jadida and Safi and offers plenty of charm and beauty for newlyweds seeking a unique escape, given its protected natural habitat and Mediterranean weather. It’s also commonly referred to as Morocco’s “oyster capital,” so you can expect to feast on shellfish 24/7 while visiting.</p>

<h3 data-reactid="140">How to get there:</h3>

<p data-reactid="141">Oualidia is about two and a half hours from Marrakech and two hours from Casablanca by car, so driving to the town from either the international Marrakech Menara Airport or the Casablanca Airport is the easiest way to go. (And the scenic drive will definitely provide lots of ample opportunities for&nbsp;Instagramming your travels.)</p>

<h3 data-reactid="145">Where to stay:</h3>

<p><a data-reactid="162" href="/oualidia">La Sultana Oualidia</a>. As one of the&nbsp;<a data-reactid="164" href="https://www.brides.com/gallery/boutique-honeymoon-hotels">small luxury hotels</a>&nbsp;of the world (with only <a href="https://www.lasultanahotels.com/p/oualidia/CHAMBRESETSUITES">12 rooms and suites available</a> for guests), checking into this boutique gem is somewhat like living an Arabian dream—complete with flocks of pink flamingos everywhere. Not only is it stunning and isolated off the beaten path, but they offer everything lovebirds could want or need: Intimate terraces with outdoor Jacuzzis, sweeping views of the sea, an abundance of adventure and <a href="https://www.lasultanahotels.com/p/oualidia/Evenementiel">wellness activities</a> like beach hikes, paddle boarding, surfing, bird watching safaris, and fat biking, and a tranquil setting at the edge of the Atlantic. They also provide several honeymoon and romance package options, which consist of welcome glasses of champagne, drawn bubble baths with rose petals, and&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lasultanahotels.com/p/oualidia/Spa">spa </a>treatments&nbsp;and a “Royal Hammam” just for you and bae.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>
</p><h3 data-reactid="172">Where to eat:</h3>

<p>If you’re looking for a&nbsp;one-of-a-kind dining experience, look no further than&nbsp;<a data-reactid="192" href="https://www.lasultanahotels.com/p/hotel/experience">La Sultana’s Berber Tent</a>&nbsp;that’s perched in the sand pop-up style with exotic tapestries and ottomans fit for luxe beachside picnic. You’ll savor specialties like sea-perch in a salt crust, lobster, bouillabaisse, grilled meats and vegetarian dishes soured from the onsite garden for an unforgettable meal. Other nearby options for casual fare include the relaxed&nbsp;L'Initiale <a href="https://www.lasultanahotels.com/p/oualidia/Restaurant-Cours-de-cuisine">Hotel-Restaurant</a>—which also has very affordable prices—and&nbsp;Ostréa II&nbsp;for seafood platters and oysters served a myriad of delicious ways."</p>

From its very inception, the hotel was planned to minimise&nbsp;impact on its fragile environment.<br />It took vision, money and technical resources to achieve the result: a hotel&nbsp;which is unique in its environmental approach and 100% sustainable in&nbsp;its use of water.<br />From the outside, with its garden and buildings made from local stone, the&nbsp;hotel seems perfectly integrated with its surroundings. It imbues the place&nbsp;with a feeling of serenity and well-being.<br />But these are just the visible signs. Below ground runs a technical&nbsp;infrastructure consisting of miles of pipework. It is thanks to this that&nbsp;guests can enjoy five-star comfort with minimum strain on resources or&nbsp;damage to the environment.<br />All the water for La Sultana &ndash; from garden to hotel, from restaurants to&nbsp;swimming pools &ndash; is derived locally. Desalinated and filtered by osmosis,&nbsp;the water is soft and pure. It makes a shower or a dip in the hotel&rsquo;s<br />swimming pools a wonderfully sensuous experience.<br />Water for the swimming pools is treated by ionisation. It uses a process of&nbsp;electrolytic hydrolysis with a copper/silver cathode and anode. The copper&nbsp;prevents the build-up of algae while the silver helps eliminate bacteria.&nbsp;It means that when the pools are drained for cleaning only pure, nonchlorinated&nbsp;water goes back into the lagoon.<br />A lot of time and effort went into finding a solution to recycling waste&nbsp;water. In the treatment area under the hotel, grey water from bathroom,&nbsp;shower and kitchen is degreased, oxygenated, homogenised and filtered.<br />This provides 40 cubic metres of water a day to irrigate the garden.<br />Sewage water is recycled along underground conduits which use vegetation&nbsp;to break down bacteria. This age-old system, updated for modern needs,&nbsp;gives the garden nutrients to help it to flourish. The final part of the recycling process is evaporation, which takes place through the leaves of&nbsp;the plants. 200 litres of water per day can be evaporated by a single mature&nbsp;eucalyptus tree.<br />Sea water from the lagoon, filtered and heated, is used for the jacuzzis.&nbsp;Guests arriving at the hotel can bathe away their stresses and cares by&nbsp;plunging into a whirlpool of pure, warm ocean water while feeling the<br />Atlantic breeze on their face.<br />We also thought carefully about heating and cooling systems for the hotel.<br />Heating, air conditioning and dehumidifying are controlled by a waterto-water heat pump which takes water from the lagoon at 18 degrees&nbsp;centigrade in the winter and at 21 degrees in the summer months. The&nbsp;water is then distributed around the hotel as needed.<br />La Sultana Oualidia is at the forefront of revolutionary green&nbsp;technology. Using resources sustainably, it manages to ensure the&nbsp;comfort of its guests as well as the long-term welfare of the lagoon&nbsp;ecosystem.</p>'

La Sultana Marrakech 2015 Morocco’s Leading Spa Resort World Travel Award

01-09-2015

Beyond the regular criteria essential for a leading spa today, the Spa at
La Sultana Marrakech is original in that it corresponds in every way
to our imagination of the oriental tales of our childhood. … While the
modern globetrotter demands a place to restore Zen, La Sultana Spa
reaches further with its atmosphere reminiscent of the ancient
bathhouses, where immersing in purifying water would be a sacred
ritual. No doubt because of the rose marble columns that intersect into
arches at the ceiling, recalling Egyptian or Roman temples. No doubt
because of the light from the chandeliers made of sculpted copper that
reflects lace patterns in the air. Because of the perfumed vapours rising
from the turquoise water of the long central basin, which sits as an
invigorating natural source originating from the centre of the
Earth...
La Sultana Spa, so intimately linked to our imagination, so in sync
with our dreams, resembles none other.

Dinner Under the Stars on Warm Summer Nights at La Sultana Marrakech

23-06-2015

On the immense rooftop terrace overlooking the red city’s historic centre, the restaurant in La Sultana’s hanging gardens is a dream come alive.
In summer, when the sun sets on the horizon among the palm, orange and olive trees, the tables are set in harmony.
The tablecloths, in immaculate white, stand out against the grounds covered with oriental carpets and soft lights shine like stars, playing like mirrors against the sky.
A musician makes the air sweet as honey by the sound of his lute, as his melody follows the rhythm of the waiters’ discretely orchestrated comings and goings.
In this elegant atmosphere, refined dishes are savoured like mysterious potions. The chef’s creations combine the subtleties of revisited traditional Moroccan cuisine with flavours from other lands.

Marrakech, the ancestral stop on the journeys of the caravans, unveils her most intimate charms. La Sultana transforms itself like a mirage into a lavish bivouac in a desert oasis and provides contentment in the present with generosity.

Where luxury meets sustainability

25-03-2015

La Sultana is situated in the midst of a remarkable ecosystem, the lagoon of Oualidia. From its very inception, the hotel was planned to minimise impact on its fragile environment.
It took vision, money and technical resources to achieve the result: a hotel which is unique in its environmental approach and 100% sustainable in its use of water.
From the outside, with its garden and buildings made from local stone, the hotel seems perfectly integrated with its surroundings. It imbues the place with a feeling of serenity and well-being.
But these are just the visible signs. Below ground runs a technical infrastructure consisting of miles of pipework. It is thanks to this that guests can enjoy five-star comfort with minimum strain on resources or damage to the environment.
All the water for La Sultana – from garden to hotel, from restaurants to swimming pools – is derived locally. Desalinated and filtered by osmosis, the water is soft and pure. It makes a shower or a dip in the hotel’s
swimming pools a wonderfully sensuous experience.
Water for the swimming pools is treated by ionisation. It uses a process of electrolytic hydrolysis with a copper/silver cathode and anode. The copper prevents the build-up of algae while the silver helps eliminate bacteria. It means that when the pools are drained for cleaning only pure, nonchlorinated water goes back into the lagoon.
A lot of time and effort went into finding a solution to recycling waste water. In the treatment area under the hotel, grey water from bathroom, shower and kitchen is degreased, oxygenated, homogenised and filtered.
This provides 40 cubic metres of water a day to irrigate the garden.
Sewage water is recycled along underground conduits which use vegetation to break down bacteria. This age-old system, updated for modern needs, gives the garden nutrients to help it to flourish. The final part of the recycling process is evaporation, which takes place through the leaves of the plants. 200 litres of water per day can be evaporated by a single mature eucalyptus tree.
Sea water from the lagoon, filtered and heated, is used for the jacuzzis. Guests arriving at the hotel can bathe away their stresses and cares by plunging into a whirlpool of pure, warm ocean water while feeling the
Atlantic breeze on their face.
We also thought carefully about heating and cooling systems for the hotel.
Heating, air conditioning and dehumidifying are controlled by a waterto-water heat pump which takes water from the lagoon at 18 degrees centigrade in the winter and at 21 degrees in the summer months. The water is then distributed around the hotel as needed.
La Sultana Oualidia is at the forefront of revolutionary green technology. Using resources sustainably, it manages to ensure the comfort of its guests as well as the long-term welfare of the lagoon ecosystem.

Artisans are guarantors of tradition and creativity. Their knowhow preserves the traditions carried on from the past and maintain them for the future.

With passion and determination, La Sultana demonstrates its bond with traditional art and knowhow, while integrating it into modernity.

It has committed to promote these artistic traditions, which have been integral part of Moroccan culture and heritage. La Sultana supports its own teams who have worked exclusively for her since the beginning. It has taken over five years for La Sultana Concept to complete the work. As for fine watch-making or haute couture, any design or restoration takes time. Sculptors, engravers, painters have been working on various materials, such as marble, plaster, wood and copper.

Local artists have used tadelakt, stucco, and zelliges with innate talent inherited from generation to generation.

La Sultana shares a wall with the mausoleum of the Saadian princes, which is the most prestigious and best preserved representation of Andalusian and Moorish monuments in the entire Maghreb.

It has been inspired from this exceptional close proximity with Saadian art. Over a dozen old riads belonging to royal servants and their side street represent the basis of its establishment. La Sultana has carefully preserved this unique character.

Thus, a stay at La Sultana represents a close encounter with Moroccan history, and particularly that of the Saadian Dynasty.
