Maison 28 in Marrakech is a sanctuary. Tucked away in a historic neighborhood of Marrakech, Maison 28 provides much-needed calm. The guestrooms are works of art, individually curated by owner/designer Melanie Royals, with hand-picked and often custom touches. What truly stands out at Maison 28 is the team. Melanie, Rachid, Mohamed, Najat, and Sana provide warm, gracious hospitality, beautiful meals, organize day trips, and recommend the best of Marrakech. Highly recommend.

Maison 28 is the most wonderful place to call home when visiting Marrakech. Each room is unique and comfortable. The Maison 28 team takes excellent care and feels like family. Can’t wait to return!

The perfect way to experience Morocco, in my opinion, is with purpose and direction. Weaving Through Morocco was an amazing retreat - I signed up as a novice and ended up learning the weaving process from start to finish (with 3 different keepsakes to take home with me). This was the perfect balance of purposeful travel (stopping along our route to visit the women who create beautiful Berber rugs - including watching them dye their wool), time to sit and spend with new friends while working on our projects and time to experience the culture and beauty that is Morocco. Melanie (and her wonderful staff) provided the direction - everything was taken care of! Just show up and enjoy the hospitality, the shopping (oh, the shopping) and whatever retreat you’ve signed up for. The trip was very well organized and managed and the food was amazing! An experience I’ll never forget and would recommend to anyone who is open to new things - go alone or go with friends who are like minded - just bring your best walking shoes and go!

We had a fabulous time! The accommodations were amazing, the places we visited were filled with culture and our guides were so nice and helpful. This is a fantastic place to stay for a group or even a few people.
