Every formula below is a family package, booked directly with the riad and confirmed in writing by Éric. Prices are per night for the whole family, not per person, and they include the private hammam, the patio pool and the rooftop jacuzzi. The baby cot is free for under-2s, on direct booking only.

Which Family Formula Fits Your Stay?

A short city break of two or three nights. The Family Break - Essential is the one that works: breakfast is handled, the pool and the hammam are on site, and you keep your evenings free to eat out in the medina. With two children under 2, the cot costs nothing and the family room takes you all.

A full week with children. Take the Family Half Board. Coming back to the riad at 7pm with tired children and finding dinner ready is what makes the difference over seven days: Chef Naima adapts the spices, and the menus follow what the children actually eat. It is also the formula that removes the daily search for a restaurant that suits everyone.

Several families travelling together. The Family Reunion hires the riad exclusively from 8 guests and up to 50 with a partner riad 100 metres away. Each family keeps its own room, the pool, the hammam and the rooftop are yours alone, and the budget splits between households, which is regularly cheaper than the same number of individual hotel rooms. See our exclusive hire page for the full detail.

Family Packages by Season

Two periods have their own family formulas, priced for the whole stay rather than per night:

Autumn half-term. Half-board family stays are sold as complete packages: 760 € for 3 guests over 4 nights and 1 330 € over 7 nights, 940 € / 1 650 € for 4 guests, 1 100 € / 1 930 € for 5 guests. A version with an activity pack included (airport transfer, private Ourika valley day, 2 Spa packages for the parents, pool and jacuzzi for the children) runs from 1 010 €. Full grids on our autumn half-term page.

Christmas. Family stays run from 90 € per night for a family room with half board, from 20 to 28 December. Details on our Christmas in Marrakech page.

A riad thought for families

The Riad Vendôme offers everything a family needs. The pool is visible from the patio and terraces, you can keep an eye on children at all times. Rooms are spacious with extra bed options for children. The cook prepares adapted meals (not too spicy for little ones, varied options for teenagers). Fibre wifi lets teenagers stay connected. And the Dar El Bacha district has some of the medina's widest and quietest lanes for walking with family.

Family Activities in Marrakech

Visit to the medina - Children love the colourful souks, the spices, the artisans. A bilingual guide is recommended for families.

rooftop terrace of the riad above the medina, family holiday riad in Marrakech open all year

Jardin Majorelle - The Majorelle blue fascinates children. A short (1:00) and pleasant visit.

Ride by horse-drawn carriage - Tour of the city by horse-drawn carriage. The children love it.

Valley of the Ourika: Waterfalls, river, lunch on the terrace. A 45-minute nature excursion.

Cooking class: The children take part in the preparation of couscous or Moroccan crêpes with the cook.

Multigenerational Family Reunion

The Riad Vendôme is the ideal venue for bringing 3 generations together. Grandparents enjoy the quiet of the terraces and hammam. Parents relax by the pool and jacuzzi. Children play in the patio. In the evening, everyone gathers for a family dinner prepared by the cook. It's often the occasion to celebrate a birthday (60th, 70th, 80th) in an exceptional setting.

A Family Stay in a Riad in the Heart of the Medina

A family resort on the outskirts keeps you away from the real city; a family stay in a riad in the heart of the medina puts you right in it, safely. At Riad Vendôme your family settles into a genuine traditional house in the Dar El Bacha district, 7 minutes on foot from Jemaa El-Fna, with enclosed planted patios, a pool and a rooftop terrace where children can play away from traffic. Several rooms interconnect for families, Chef Naima adapts meals for younger guests, and Éric helps plan child-friendly outings. It is authentic Marrakech the whole family can enjoy, not an isolated holiday complex.

For a multi-generational roots trip, see our Jewish heritage riad page.

Travelling with Young Children: What We Can Confirm

Suite Oukaïmeden of the riad, 22 m² for 4 guests with a separate play area, family holiday riad in Marrakech
The Suite Oukaïmeden: 22 m², 4 guests, with the children’s beds on the mezzanine and a play area of their own.

Most itineraries you will find online invent age limits for activities. We do not. Here is what we can state for the riad itself, and how we handle the rest.

Under 2 yearsBaby cot free of charge on direct booking. Bottle warming and fridge access in the kitchen on request.
Room capacityFamily rooms take 2 adults and up to 3 children. Adjoining rooms available for larger families.
Pool5×3 m pool in the patio, visible from the breakfast tables and supervised at all times. No lifeguard: children remain under parental supervision.
Babysitting€30 at night, €20 during the day, arranged with a member of our own staff, booked the day before.
MealsChef Naima cooks child portions with mild spices, and adapts to allergies you tell us about in advance.
Tourist tax€3 per person per night, payable on site.
Activity age limitsQuad biking, camel rides, hot-air balloon and cooking classes each have their own minimum age set by the provider, and these change. We do not publish a number we cannot guarantee: send us your children's ages and we confirm in writing, before you pay anything, exactly which activities each child can join.

Low-season rates, conditions apply. Please enquire.

Pacing a day in the medina with small children

Two practical points that most guides leave out. First, the heat: between 12:00 and 16:00 from May to September, the medina is hard going for a toddler. We build the mornings around one outing and keep the afternoon at the riad, by the pool, where it stays cooler under the patio. Second, pushchairs: the alleyways around Dar El Bacha are flat and wide enough for a pushchair, but the souks themselves are not, a baby carrier works better there. The riad is 7 minutes' walk from Jemaa el-Fna, so you come back for a nap and go out again without taking a taxi.

Tell us the ages of your children and we build the day-by-day around their naps, not around a brochure. Éric replies personally on WhatsApp +212 600 608 608, written quote within minutes.

Pacing a Stay With Young Children: What Actually Works

pool in the patio of the riad seen from the sun loungers, family holiday riad in Marrakech with children
The patio pool, visible from every side of the courtyard, the reason the 12:00 to 16:00 window works.

With a child under three, plan one outing a day and keep the 12:00-16:00 nap window. Marrakech in the middle of the day is hot and loud, and a family that tries to fit two sights plus the souks into one day spends the evening managing a meltdown rather than eating dinner. The patio pool is what makes the difference: it is the reason the day works, not an extra. One contact throughout: Éric, owner since 2011: WhatsApp +212 600 608 608, written quote within minutes.

08:30-09:30Moroccan breakfast on the rooftop or in the patio. Children eat early and then have the pool to themselves before the heat.
10:00-12:00One outing, and one only. The Jardin Majorelle, the Bahia Palace or a slow walk to Jemaa el-Fna, 7 minutes away. Back before midday.
12:00-16:00Lunch at the riad, then the nap window kept intact. This is the part families give up first and regret. Older children swim in the patio pool while the youngest sleeps.
16:00-18:00Pool, or the second short outing if the children are older. The souks are calmer late afternoon than at midday.
19:00-20:00Children's dinner by Chef Naima, plain chicken, pasta, chips and fruit if that is what works, said in advance and without judgement.
20:30Parents' dinner in the patio once the children are down. On a request made when you book, Éric arranges a babysitter (€30 at night, €20 during the day).

Low-season rates, conditions apply. Please enquire.

Three things we would rather tell you before you book

  • A pushchair is awkward in the medina. The alleys are uneven, often narrow, and shared with mopeds and handcarts. Most parents end up carrying the youngest in a sling. Bring one.
  • The souks are intense for a toddler: noise, smells, crowding, no room to walk freely. They work far better late afternoon, and in short doses, than at midday.
  • Minimum ages for quad biking, camel rides, hot-air balloon and cooking classes are set by each provider and they change. We do not publish a number we cannot guarantee: send us your children's ages and we confirm in writing, before you pay anything, exactly which activities each child can join.

Spa & Hammam - Family-Friendly Setting

rooftop jacuzzi of the riad at 36 degrees with a view over the medina rooftops, family holiday riad in Marrakech
The rooftop jacuzzi at 36°C. Children use it under parental supervision; the hammam itself stays adults-only.

Riad Vendôme is very popular with families: calm atmosphere, pleasant patio, authentic spa and hammam. A great balance between comfort and price, away from the rush of palace-hotels. While parents enjoy hammam and massage treatments (reserved for adults, hammam and massage from age 5), accompanied children have access to the patio pool and the rooftop jacuzzi under parental supervision. Éric adapts the timing around your family arrangements.

Three ways to sleep as a family

Riad Vendôme has three family layouts, and they work differently. Two adjoining rooms with their own patio: the Suite Junior Merzouga, a double for two, and the Suite Junior Zagora, three single beds for three, side by side on the ground floor. Five people in all. Three suites with a mezzanine: Ourika (20 m², 4 guests), Oukaïmeden (22 m², 4 guests) and Family Suite Tanger (22 m², 5 guests, adults below and children above). Two neighbouring rooms taken together, which suits teenagers and larger families.

Which rooms are free depends on the dates: tell us the ages of the children when you enquire and we confirm the layout, subject to availability. Exact rate according to your dates, the length of the stay and the number of guests: written quote within minutes on WhatsApp.

Are the two adjoining rooms linked by an interior door?

No. They are the Suite Junior Merzouga and the Suite Junior Zagora, two independent rooms side by side on the ground floor, each with its own bathroom, opening onto the same private patio reserved for you alone. It is the patio that links them, not a door.

How many people can the two adjoining rooms take?

Five. The Suite Junior Merzouga has a double bed for two guests and the Suite Junior Zagora has three single beds for three guests. The private patio between them serves only these two rooms.

Which rooms have a mezzanine?

Three family suites: Ourika at 20 m² for 4 guests, Oukaïmeden at 22 m² for 4 guests and Tanger at 22 m² for 5 guests. Each has two levels, with sleeping space on both. Simmons VIP bedding throughout.

Can we book two rooms next to each other?

Yes, and it is often the best answer for teenagers or for a family of six and more. The exact pairing is confirmed at the time of booking and depends on availability, so tell us the number and ages of the children when you write.

After a morning in the souks with the children, lunch, pool and jacuzzi in the patio: the afternoon at the riad after the souks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the riad safe for children?

Yes. The pool is visible from the patio, the Dar El Bacha district is a former palace quarter with some of the widest lanes in the medina, and the staff looks after the whole family's comfort.

Can the cook prepare meals for children?

Yes. Our cook adapts meals: dishes less spicy, pasta, grilled chicken, crepes. The breakfast includes options that children love.

Things to Do in Marrakech with Kids - Naima's Picks

Every family is different. Naima helps you choose the right activities based on your children's ages and energy levels:

🌊 Oasiria Water Park: 4 km from the riad (15 min taxi)

The best day out for kids in Marrakech. 17 water slides, a wave pool, lazy river, dedicated toddler area. Entry approx €22 adults / €17 children. A full-day activity that tires them out perfectly. Riad Vendôme arranges transport.

🐒 Ouzoud Waterfalls + Barbary Macaques: 2h30 from Marrakech

One of Morocco's most spectacular natural sites. Huge waterfalls, wild Barbary macaques that eat from your hand, a swim in the natural pool at the base. Children aged 4+ absolutely love it. Riad Vendôme coordinates the full-day trip with an approved licensed transport partner.

🏔️ Ourika Valley: 45 min from the riad

Berber villages, a mountain river where children can paddle, local market. Calm, beautiful, very family-friendly. Perfect for a half-day with younger children.

🌺 Jardin Majorelle: 15 min by taxi

A magical garden, easy to visit with a pushchair. The vivid cobalt blue, cactus, and pond fascinate children of all ages. Allow 1 hour.

⛷️ Oukaïmeden: 75 km / 1h30 (December,March)

snow-covered slopes of Oukaimeden in the High Atlas, family day trip from the family holiday riad in Marrakech
Oukaïmeden, 75 km from the riad: snow from December to March, at 1h30 by road.

Africa's highest ski resort. Skiing, sledging, donkeys in the snow: a surreal and unforgettable experience for children used to grey British winters. Riad Vendôme coordinates the day trip.

🐪 Merzouga Desert: Family Bivouac (3 nights add-on)

A night in a Berber tent under millions of stars. Camel trek at sunset. Comfortable bivouac, from age 3. The experience children remember for life. All-inclusive from Riad Vendôme.

Best Time for a Family Holiday in Marrakech: UK School Holidays

Marrakech works brilliantly for UK school holiday timing. 300 days of sunshine a year, short flight (3h30 from London, 3h45 from Manchester), and no long-haul jet lag.

UK School HolidayMarrakech WeatherOur Pick
February Half Term18-22°C, sunny, no crowds⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect, best weather/price balance
Easter Holidays20-26°C, warm and sunny⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Hottest weeks, book early
Summer Holidays32-42°C July/August⭐⭐⭐ Very hot, pool essential, plan early mornings
October Half Term22-28°C, warm and dry⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ideal, post-summer calm, excellent value
Christmas Holidays16-20°C, sunny while the UK is grey⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great escape, consider Oukaïmeden ski day

Pro tip from Éric: February half term and October half term are our sweet spots, warm enough for the pool, cool enough to explore the medina comfortably, and generally better value than Easter peak.

Family Reunion in Marrakech - Cousin Gatherings & Multi-Family Stays

Riad Vendôme is ideal for a family reunion with children: when 2, 3 or 4 families travel together and share the riad. Each family has its own room or suite, and you share the pool, rooftop, kitchen, and hammam. The budget splits beautifully.

Family reunion pricing (exclusive hire, per night):

  • 2 families (8-14 guests): from €950/night
  • 3-4 families (15-25 guests): from €950/night, from €1,150 with a partner riad
  • Large cousin gathering (25-50 guests): contact us - the partner riad next door is available

Per person, shared between families, this is often cheaper than booking individual hotel rooms for everyone.

Is Riad Vendôme suitable for families with young children?

Yes. The riad has a private pool (not shared with other guests), making it safe for supervised children's swimming. All rooms have air conditioning. Éric can arrange a cot or extra bed. The medina is safe for walking with children and Jemaa El-Fna is an unforgettable experience for kids aged 5+.

What family activities are available from Riad Vendôme?

Top family activities: Moroccan cooking class with Chef Naima (fun for children 8+, from €28/child), camel ride in the Palmeraie (30 min from the riad), Ourika Valley waterfalls day trip (suitable for children of all ages), and Marrakech souk tour with a guide (2h, from €13/person). Éric arranges everything.

Can Riad Vendôme accommodate a multi-generational family (grandparents + parents + children)?

Yes - Riad Vendôme is ideal for multi-generational families. We have ground-floor rooms (no stairs, suitable for grandparents), triple rooms (parents + young child), adjoining doubles (extended family), and family-size suites. Éric coordinates everything: gentle activities for grandparents (heritage palace visit, hammam, easy walks), family activities (cooking class, pool day), children adventures (Agafay camel, sandcastle in desert sand). Calm atmosphere set back from the street, ideal for relaxing extended family time. From €380/family-of-6/night for full multi-room booking.

What is the most flexible multi-generational family booking at Riad Vendôme?

The most flexible multi-generational booking is to reserve 4-6 rooms together (depending on family size, 6-12 guests), grouped around the patio. Éric customises individual programmes: grandparents enjoy slow-paced activities (palace tours, hammam, rooftop relaxation), parents enjoy spa + cooking class, children enjoy pool + Agafay desert + family dinners. Single contract, multiple personalised paths. Modifications possible up to 7 days before. Family discounts negotiable for groups of 8+ direct booking via WhatsApp.

How long is the flight to Marrakech from the US and Canada?

There are no non-stop flights from the United States; from New York allow about 8 to 9 hours via Casablanca on Royal Air Maroc, which hubs there. From Canada, Royal Air Maroc runs a seasonal non-stop from Montreal to Casablanca, then a short connection to Marrakech. The riad is about 20 minutes from Marrakech-Menara airport.

Where exactly is Riad Vendôme located in Marrakech?

Riad Vendôme is at 217 Derb El Halfaoui, in the Dar El Bacha district of the Marrakech medina. It is a 7-minute walk from Jemaa El-Fna square, close to the Koutoubia and the souks, so you reach the main sights on foot without needing a taxi. A member of staff meets you at the nearest vehicle drop-off point on arrival.

How do I book, and how quickly do you reply?

You book directly with the riad, not through a platform. Send your dates and group size on WhatsApp at +212 600 608 608 and you receive a written quote within minutes. There is no automated booking engine: every stay is confirmed by a person, and the payment terms are set out in the quote you receive.

Can the whole riad be privatised, and for how many guests?

Yes, Riad Vendôme can be hired exclusively. The main riad has 12 rooms and goes up to 20 rooms with a partner riad 100 metres away, for exclusive hire of up to 50 guests. During an exclusive hire there are no other guests: the pool, hammam, jacuzzi and rooftop are reserved for your group alone.

How much is a family package at Riad Vendôme in Marrakech?

Family formulas are priced per night for the whole family, not per person. The Family Break Essential starts at 260 euros a night for 2 adults and 2 children with Moroccan breakfast, pool, private hammam and a free baby cot. The Family Half Board starts at 295 euros a night for 2 adults and 3 children, with breakfasts, plus the evening dinner by Chef Naima. A family room without meals starts at 145 euros a night, and the all-inclusive family package at 225 euros.

What is included in the family half board at the riad?

The family room, breakfasts every morning, plus the evening dinner prepared by Chef Naima, with child-friendly menus and mild spices. Access to the patio pool, the rooftop jacuzzi at 36 degrees and the private hammam is included. The baby cot is free for under-2s on direct booking. A babysitter can be arranged at 20 euros an evening.

Can several families book the riad together in Marrakech?

Yes. The Family Reunion formula hires the riad exclusively from 8 guests, and up to 50 guests with a partner riad 100 metres away. Each family keeps its own room, the pool, hammam and rooftop are reserved for your group alone, and the budget splits between households. It starts at 950 euros a night.

Are there family packages for the school holidays in Marrakech?

Yes, and they are priced for the whole stay rather than per night. For the autumn half-term, a half-board family stay is 760 euros for 3 guests over 4 nights and 1 330 euros over 7 nights, 940 or 1 650 euros for 4 guests, 1 100 or 1 930 euros for 5 guests. At Christmas, family stays start at 90 euros a night from 20 to 28 December.

What are the age limits for activities in Marrakech with children?

Quad biking, camel rides, hot-air balloon and cooking classes each have their own minimum age set by the provider, and these change. We do not publish a number we cannot guarantee: send us your children's ages and we confirm in writing, before you pay anything, exactly which activities each child can join.

Can we come to the riad with a baby under two?

Yes. The baby cot is free of charge on direct booking, and bottle warming and fridge access in the kitchen are available on request. Family rooms take 2 adults and up to 3 children, and adjoining rooms are available for larger families. A babysitter from our own staff costs 30 euros at night and 20 euros during the day, booked the day before.

Do I have one single contact for the rooms, the activities and the transfers?

Yes. Éric, the owner since 2011, is your single contact from the first message to your departure. One WhatsApp number, +212 600 608 608, covers the rooms, the hammam and massage slots, the cooking class with Chef Naima, the airport transfer and the excursions, and you receive a written quote within minutes. There is no call centre, no platform in the middle and no reservations department to chase. Transfers and outside activities are coordinated with an approved licensed transport partner, and Éric lines up the timings so the days fit together.

Can I come by car, and where do I park?

Yes. There is free parking 100 metres from the riad, and car access is via Bab Doukkala or Bab El Khemis. The last 100 metres are on foot because the alleys of the old medina are pedestrian; Éric or a member of staff comes to meet you at the car park and carries the luggage. Tell us your arrival time on WhatsApp +212 600 608 608 so someone is waiting rather than you calling from the car.

How do I get from Marrakech-Menara airport to the riad, and how much is it?

Marrakech-Menara is about 20 minutes away. The riad arranges a private transfer with an approved licensed transport partner: €15 by day and €17 at night for 2 guests. The driver waits with a sign and drops you at the car park 100 metres from the door, since the medina alleys are pedestrian, and we meet you there. On a direct booking of 3 nights or more, the arrival transfer from the airport is complimentary. Send your flight number to Éric on WhatsApp +212 600 608 608.

Can you cater for vegetarian, vegan, halal, gluten-free or allergy diets?

Yes. Chef Naima adapts the menus and the cooking class to vegetarian, vegan, halal, gluten-free and allergy requirements. The kitchen is halal by default. What we need is the list of constraints in writing when you book, not on the day, because the shopping is done at the market that morning. For a desert night, Éric passes the same list to the camp 48 hours ahead so the meals are adapted there too. Send the details on WhatsApp +212 600 608 608 and they are written into your quote.

Is the riad suitable for a guest with reduced mobility?

Partly, and we prefer to say exactly where the limits are. The Suite Junior Zagora is on the ground floor, 18 m², with step-free access, an accessible bathroom and its own private patio; the pool, the patio and the ground-floor common areas are on the same level. The rooftop terrace and the first-floor rooms are reached by stairs, and there is no lift. Access from the airport is by private transfer to the car park 100 metres away, then a paved pedestrian alley. Describe the situation to Éric on WhatsApp +212 600 608 608 and he will tell you in writing what works and what does not, before you pay anything.

Can I book this stay for 2027?

Yes. Rooms and packages are open for 2026 and for 2027, on the 2026-2027 rates, which serve as the basis for quotes on both years. The published prices are "from" prices: the exact rate depends on your dates, the season and the number of guests. For a 2027 date, ask now and the answer comes within minutes.
