FAMILY-FRIENDLY BOUTIQUE HOTEL
Lying in the serene Palmeraie just outside of Marrakech, Jnane Tamsna is a beautifully designed, family-friendly boutique hotel.
A unique boutique hotel set in a lush nine-acre garden at the heart of a vast palm oasis, Jnane Tamsna blends the capacity and amenities of a hotel with the intimacy and service of a fine private home. The 24 light and airy bedrooms are scattered between five houses, each with their own pool and spacious veranda overlooking the gardens. Interiors are decorated in a Moorish style with a blend of Moroccan crafts, Middle Eastern furnishings and colourful African textiles.
Fish pastilla, chicken tagine and other dishes inspired by Morocco’s rich culinary heritage are prepared using produce from the organic gardens. You can even learn how to prepare local dishes yourself on one of the hotel’s popular cooking classes. Otherwise, there are camel and bike rides to enjoy in the surrounding palm grove, as well as sidecar tours of the city and its outskirts.
Wandering the gardens, you’ll find five swimming pools, a hamman and a clay tennis court where you can enjoy a friendly match with the hotel’s coach, Jamal. Calligraphy and magic classes promise fun afternoons for children.

The service we received from The Ultimate Travel Company was second to none. Tania took the time to understand exactly what we wanted and helped us explore every option clearly and thoroughly. Her first-hand knowledge of Kenya and safaris made a real difference – she explained everything brilliantly. The thoughtful extras, like the travel wallet and documents, were such a lovely touch – especially for someone who loves to travel well-organised! Thank you so much. We’ll definitely be back for future adventures.
