Venue Features
The scene:
Amanjena, or ‘peaceful paradise’, is the first Amanresort on the African continent. The property is located just 15-minutes drive outside the ancient Moroccan city of Marrakech on the southern road to Ouarzazate, the gateway to the Sahara Desert. The High Atlas Mountains claim the Marrakech horizon and the Atlantic coast is just two hours away
Design:
Twin lounges frame the Entrance Colonnade, each featuring a brass lantern nearly two metres high adjacent to an open fireplace. Rising from circular banquettes of hand-printed velvet, the lanterns reach towards lofty ceilings as traditional Moroccan music drifts through the open spaces of the resort, framed by Moorish arches.
Standout venue features:
The Pool Terrace enjoys views of an olive orchard, the resort’s canals, a golf course and the High Atlas Mountains in the distance. Casual meals and refreshments are served throughout the day. Two clay tennis courts with minzahs (gazebos) for drinks and breaks can be lit for night play, while a fully-equipped gym is available at Amanjena’s Spa.
Extra perks:
For an exclusive use of the resort, guests will enjoy the entire resort's facilities.

A Breezy Moroccan nights group getaway at luxury resort Amanjena
This resort would be impossible to ignore anywhere in the world, but the fact that it’s tucked into the wilderness in Morocco, along the southern road to Ouarzazate (the gateway to the Sahara Desert), makes it shine brighter than all of Rihanna’s diamonds. If ever there were a hotel to compare to a shiny, new gemstone, this is it.
