The prestigious American magazine Forbes recently revealed its ranking of the best wellness destinations to visit in 2025. Unsurprisingly, Morocco stands out as a flagship destination, offering a unique experience combining ancestral traditions and modern luxury.
According to the Global Wellness Institute, the wellness industry is expected to reach $1.3 trillion in 2025. Today’s travelers are looking for more than just a spa massage or fitness session. They aspire to tailor-made experiences that promote their physical and mental health while respecting the environment and local communities.
In this context, Morocco has established itself thanks to its unique offerings in terms of well-being, particularly through innovative hotel concepts.
The Royal Mansour Marrakech: a jewel of the Moroccan art of living
Forbes highlights the Royal Mansour Marrakech, described as “the ultimate pleasure in the hammam”. Located near the legendary Jemaa El Fna square, this establishment embodies the very essence of Moroccan opulence.
Designed as a medina within a medina, the Royal Mansour is distinguished by its luxury riads instead of traditional hotel suites and corridors. These riads, spread over three floors, offer private swimming pools, terraces, and even a four-bedroom Grand Riad, popular with celebrities, with its own hammam, elevator and fitness room.
The SPA experience at Royal Mansour is an invitation to serenity. This 2,500 square meter space, entirely white, looks like fine lace with its cut-out panels and marble inlays. The soothing atmosphere is amplified by the gentle murmur of fountains and the aromas of essential oils.
Moroccan hydrotherapy in the lead
The hammam, a true signature of the SPA, embodies Moroccan traditions of well-being. The ritual includes steam, exfoliation, body wrap and floral water mists, offering an incomparable experience of purification and relaxation.
Signature treatments inspired by the riches of Morocco
The SPA offers exclusive treatments, each inspired by an emblematic region of Morocco:
- Step into The Atlas : A treatment to energize the body.
- Step into Taliouine : An experience to revive the radiance of the skin.
- Step into Kelaât M’Gouna : A soothing ritual for the senses.
These treatments use products from MarocMaroc, a luxury brand inspired by Moroccan beauty traditions. By partnering with the SPA, marocMaroc has created an exclusive collection to detoxify and relax, while retracing the history of Moroccan hydrotherapy.
A wellness destination with global reach
Thanks to establishments like the Royal Mansour, Morocco continues to shine as an essential destination for travelers seeking overall well-being. By combining age-old traditions and modern comfort, the kingdom offers a unique experience that delights the senses and nourishes the soul.
