Selman Marrakech Spa

The spa at the Selman hotel sits on the Route d'Amizmiz outside central Marrakech, within a resort renowned for its adjoining Arabian horse stud farm, and the spa's design echoes that equestrian and Andalusian heritage with elegant arches, reflecting pools, and terraces looking out over olive groves and, on clear days, the Atlas Mountains. The treatment menu centers on a traditional hammam ritual using local products, followed by massage options ranging from classic Swedish and deep-tissue techniques to Moroccan-inspired treatments incorporating argan oil and rhassoul clay. Because the hotel sits on generous grounds away from the density of the Medina, the spa experience emphasizes space, quiet, and unhurried pacing, with private treatment suites and outdoor relaxation terraces overlooking the horse pastures. The resort's distinctive setting - watching horses graze in the distance while resting after a treatment - gives the spa a character distinct from the historic hammams of the old city. Non-resident guests can generally book treatments with advance reservation, and the spa is a popular half-day excursion for visitors staying in central Marrakech who want a change of pace from Medina sightseeing.
