Riad Vendôme & Spa — Our Oriental Hammam
What is a thalasso stay in Marrakech? While thalassotherapy in the strict sense uses seawater, Marrakech — an imperial inland city — offers an equally revitalising alternative through the ancestral rituals of the Moroccan hammam. Rhassoul, a mineral clay from the Middle Atlas, replaces marine algae. Black olive soap substitutes for sea mud. Argan oil, a treasure of southern Morocco, nourishes the skin as intensely as marine oils. At Riad Vendôme, we have designed immersive wellness stays that draw on Morocco's natural cosmetic riches to offer you a complete revitalisation cure.
Thalasso in Marrakech at the Riad
Our wellness facilities for your thalasso stay: Riad Vendôme boasts a complete range of installations dedicated to relaxation and rejuvenation. Your stay unfolds between the oriental hammam on the ground floor (marble, tadelakt, professional steam generator), the patio pool framed by arcades and zellige tilework, the heated jacuzzi at 36°C on the panoramic rooftop with views over the Koutoubia and the Atlas Mountains, and two massage rooms — one in the quiet of the patio, the other outdoors under the terrace pergola.
A typical 3-day thalasso wellness programme at Riad Vendôme:
Day 1 — Arrival & Discovery: Airport transfer, check-in to your room, welcome mint tea and Moroccan pastries on the terrace. In the late afternoon, your first hammam session with black soap scrub to wash away the journey. Traditional Moroccan dinner (Moroccan salad, tagine, fresh fruit).
Day 2 — Wellness Immersion: Full Moroccan breakfast. Morning dedicated to treatments: hammam with rhassoul body wrap, then 1-hour relaxing massage with argan oil. Light lunch. Free afternoon: relax in the jacuzzi, swim in the pool, stroll through the medina souks. Optional: facial treatment in the late afternoon with Le Sens de Marrakech products.
Day 3 — Serenity & Departure: Breakfast, final session of tonic or Thai massage to send you home full of energy. Airport transfer. You leave with rejuvenated skin, a calm mind and unforgettable memories of the medina.
The treatments comprise:
- A traditional hammam (capacity 3 guests) with black soap or rhassoul scrub
- 2 massage rooms (patio and rooftop): 1 private treatment cabin,
- 2 open-air massage tables under the riad's terrace pergola
The Riad Spa & Oriental Massages
Our team of 4 qualified beauticians, trained in traditional oriental techniques and contemporary massage methods, accompanies you throughout your stay. Each beautician has mastered the complete hammam ritual, relaxing, tonic and Thai massage techniques, as well as facial treatments using premium products. This combined expertise guarantees professional, personalised treatments tailored to your specific needs.
Spa & Thalasso Packages Marrakech in a Riad
Why choose a thalasso stay in a riad rather than a hotel? The unique advantage of a riad like the Vendôme is absolute privacy. Where a 5-star hotel spa welcomes dozens of clients in an impersonal setting, our spa is reserved exclusively for our guests and a limited number of outside visitors. You will never queue for the hammam or share the jacuzzi with strangers. This exclusivity, combined with rates 2 to 3 times lower than spas in the large Palmeraie hotels, makes our thalasso stay the best value for authentic wellness in Marrakech.
Gift idea: Our thalasso stays make the perfect gift for a birthday, Mother's Day, Valentine's Day or a hen party. We can prepare a personalised gift card with the package of your choice. Contact us via WhatsApp at +212 600 608 608 to book.

The Benefits of a Wellness Stay in Marrakech
A thalasso stay at Riad Vendôme combines the therapeutic benefits of oriental treatments with the completely different experience of an imperial city. Physically, the hammam stimulates circulation, eliminates toxins and deeply nourishes the skin.
Mentally, the complete change of environment — the medina's ochre colours, scents of spices and orange blossom, Morocco's light, the hammam's welcoming warmth — creates a genuine sensory reset that lasts well beyond the stay.
What Is the Best Season for a Wellness Stay in Marrakech?
Marrakech can be visited all year round, but each season offers a different experience for your wellness stay. Autumn (October-November) is ideal: mild temperatures (22-28°C), golden light, the start of the date and citrus fruit season. Winter (December-February) offers sunny days at 18-22°C, perfect for alternating spa treatments and strolls in the medina — the heated jacuzzi then takes on its full meaning facing the snow-capped Atlas Mountains. Spring (March-May) is the season of the roses in the Dades Valley and gardens in bloom — it's the peak tourist season, book early. Summer (June-September), despite the heat (35-45°C), is valued for the reduced rates and the patio pool that becomes your best ally between two hammam sessions.
Recommended duration: a 3-day/2-night weekend is enough for a wellness break, but we recommend 4-5 days for genuine thalasso benefits — time to combine daily treatments, discovery and rest.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you go on thalasso in Marrakech?
As Marrakech is not by the sea, there is no thalassotherapy in the strict sense. Riad Vendôme offers wellness stays inspired by thalasso, combining oriental hammam, heated jacuzzi at 36°C, massages and body treatments, in an authentic setting in the heart of the medina.
What is included in a wellness stay at Riad Vendôme?
Our packages include accommodation in a double room, Moroccan breakfast, a hammam session with scrub, and massages (1hr to 2hr depending on the package), plus access to the jacuzzi and pool. The packages start at €165 per person for 3 days/2 nights.
What does a sample wellness stay programme look like?
Day 1: Arrival, check-in, mint tea on the terrace and time in the heated pool. The hammam opens your programme on Day 2, once the journey is behind you. Day 2: Massage session (relaxing or tonic), jacuzzi, free time to discover the medina and souks. Day 3: Facial treatment or reflexology, late brunch, departure.
What is the difference between thalasso and spa in Marrakech?
Thalassotherapy traditionally uses seawater and its derivatives (algae, marine mud), while the spa offers a variety of wellbeing treatments. In Marrakech, an inland city without access to the sea, the term "thalasso" designates complete wellness stays combining oriental hammam, massages, body wraps and body treatments with natural Moroccan products. At Riad Vendôme, our "thalasso" stays offer total immersion in Moroccan beauty rituals: hammam, rhassoul, argan, black soap.
What does a sample wellness day trip at the riad look like?
A typical wellness day at Riad Vendôme unfolds as follows: 10:00 — Welcome with mint tea and pastries, 10:30 — Hammam session with black soap scrub (30–45 min), 11:15 — Rhassoul clay body wrap and rest (30 min), 12:00 — Relaxing argan oil massage (1 hour), 13:00 — Traditional Moroccan lunch (tagine, salad, dessert), 14:30 — Poolside or jacuzzi relaxation, 16:00 — Facial treatment or manicure (depending on package). Departure at 18:00.
Where exactly is Riad Vendome located in Marrakech?
Riad Vendome 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 24 hours. 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 Vendome can be hired exclusively. The main riad has 12 rooms and goes up to 20 rooms with our second riad 100 metres away, for exclusive hire of up to 45 guests. During an exclusive hire there are no other guests: the pool, hammam, jacuzzi and rooftop are reserved for your group alone.
When in the stay should the hammam be booked — on the arrival day or later?
On the second day, not on the arrival day. After a flight, a transfer and check-in at 15:00, a steam bath and a black-soap scrub leave most guests half asleep for the evening, and the first dinner is wasted. We keep day one for the pool, the rooftop jacuzzi at 36°C and a quiet dinner in the patio, and we place the hammam on the morning or the afternoon of day two, when the body has rested. Slots are held for riad guests, so tell Éric your arrival time on WhatsApp +212 600 608 608 and the slot is set in writing before you land.
