"sitting under the millions of stars listening to ancient drumming will touch your soul"

Tented campCamel ridesFireEnsuite

Camp Adounia is for busy people with a sense of adventure, looking to find some balance, rest and re-connection. Adounia was born through a passion to share the stunning landscapes of Morocco and a deep belief in the power of the Earth, a chance for people and their families to really get away from it all and enjoy nature.

Eat delicious authentic meals, enjoy a camp fire with kindred souls, find inspiration in powerful natural environments, listen to the pounding waves and be pampered back to vitality.

Camping in Morocco, sitting under the millions of stars listening to ancient drumming will touch your soul.

"I have been blessed to visit Camp Adounia for a romantic visit for two nights, the visit was remarkable in it’s own right and fed my soul.

The staff at Camp Adounia was friendly, accommodating and flexible. Upon arrival we were shown and then taught how to use the Eco friendly tents, toilets and solar power. The staff then discussed what time and where we would like our meal served.

Not once during either visit did I feel that we were “roughing it” all luxuries that give me comfort were right there. The beds were very comfortable and warm with soft linens. The nights I slept at Camp Adounia this past summer were the best nights of sleep I got all summer. Sleeping next to the crashing waves, sitting and watching them roll in, walking in the sand and eating fresh seafood under a star filled sky fed my soul and gave me all the wonderful benefits of being in nature.

The visit was pure romance. We had a private beach, private romantic dinners next to a fire under the twinkling stars and attentive service."

"I stayed at camp adounia this past summer with friends and my 2 sons and it was beyond our expectations. We had everything we needed and were surrounded by nature and the ocean at our tentstep! The service was impeccable and they catered our every meal with graciousness and tasty meals. It was wonderful to see so many fresh ingredients readily available and some dishes cooked on the open fire. We stayed on the beach and sunbathed and let the kids wander the beach. It was clean and we were on an untouched spot of the beach. The tents were impressive and very roomy for all of us. We had a toilet which was filled by sand and changed daily so no smell was ever left in the air. There was a surfing area that was easily accessible as well as fresh seafood offered by local fisherman on the beach. I am a business owner and mom so getting away and forgetting it all for a few days was my mission. And the mission was accomplished as I had such a fabulous time in this secluded pocket of paradise with a great staff. They even played gnawa music (their own instruments) by the campfire after dinner and fresh drinks! I would highly recommend Camp adounia to anyone that wants a special vacay away from it all!! Turn your phones off and enjoy nature at its finest!"

Jayne Tomkinson - USA
