Villa Riad Caramel
A private Atlantic-side retreat house
Taghazout’s Atlantic edge is the defining feature at Villa Riad Caramel: the rooftop looks out over the water, while open-air terraces give retreat days room to unfold beyond the practice space. The guesthouse has a pool and a notably private arrangement: its rooms are reserved exclusively for retreat participants, with no other guests sharing the property during a retreat. That makes the setting feel more like a small retreat house than a conventional hotel, with places to pause between sessions or take in the coastal air. The appeal is straightforward: a contained base by the sea, with shared spaces for unwinding and Taghazout as its wider backdrop. Retreat programming and daily arrangements may differ by dates, so ask the host about the format before booking.
