Who this retreat
is for

This retreat is for people who:

  • Work remotely and still care about their work

  • Want structure without pressure

  • Value connection, but don’t want to be “on” all the time

  • Enjoy movement, creativity, and good food

  • Are craving a reset that fits real life, not an escape from it

It’s not a party trip.
It’s not a productivity bootcamp.

It’s a steady, human rhythm by the ocean.

What days feel like

Days have a loose, supportive structure.

Mornings start with optional rooftop yoga, an ocean dip, or a quiet coffee.
Mid-mornings are for focused coworking blocks.
Afternoons open up with swims, walks, hammam visits, creative time, or rest.
Evenings unfold naturally with shared meals, conversations, music, or an early night if that’s what you need.

Nothing is forced. Everything is optional.

Price: 890€ shared room / 1100€ private

Group size: 8 to 12 people

Where: Tamraght, Morocco

No fuss. No stress.
Grounded. Clear. Human.

A calm first edition (limited spots)


This is the first edition of this retreat, shaped from ways I’ve hosted and worked with people before.

Future editions will include deeper workshops, upgraded programming and a higher price point. This version is intentionally gentle. A soft beginning for the community I am building.

Optional Add-On: Mount Toubkal Hike
For those who want to extend the experience beyond the coast, there is an optional Mount Toubkal hike after the retreat.

Mount Toubkal is the highest peak in North Africa. While it sounds big, it is very doable with a local guide and does not require technical climbing experience. The hike typically takes 2 to 3 days.

This is completely optional and not included in the retreat price.
I can help coordinate guides and logistics for anyone interested.

About Tamraght

Tamraght is a relaxed and welcoming coastal village with cafés, small shops, surf culture and warm local energy. The atmosphere is peaceful and unhurried, with ocean views, soft breezes and a gentle desert by the sea feel that settles you as soon as you arrive. It is safe, friendly and known for its sunrise rooftops, good food and calm rhythms.
It is a beautiful setting for slow work and soft mornings.

FAQs

  • This is a low alcohol environment. Some people enjoy a glass of wine at dinner, others do not drink at all.

  • The retreat is designed as a full ten day container. Arriving late or leaving early is possible, but the experience works best when you give yourself the full timeline. There are no discounts for shorter stays.

  • We keep the group small and curated. Maximum 10 participants. This ensures the environment stays calm, warm and easy to connect in.

  • Not at all. Some people join because they want to get clear, regain momentum or finally move something they’ve been avoiding. You don’t need to arrive in a perfect workflow. You only need willingness and to be self led.

  • Yes. Tamraght is a relaxed coastal village that is very used to solo female travellers. I’ve lived and worked here for years and will guide you through cultural etiquette so you feel safe and comfortable at all times.

  • Ramadan is gentle by the coast. Swimwear is normal at the beach and surf spots. In town, a simple outfit that covers shoulders or knees is respectful. I can guide you on what feels appropriate.

  • The internet is suitable for full-time remote work, including video calls, coworking, and day-to-day online tasks. It’s been tested with multiple devices connected at once and is stable for a small group working simultaneously.

  • No. All optional activities are invitations. You can rest, work, surf, explore or do nothing. Your body and energy lead the way.

  • Creatives, digital nomads, entrepreneurs and remote workers who want clarity, calm and real progress. People who are independent, kind, curious and grounded. No party energy. Just warm humans.

  • Yes. Let me know your travel plans and I can recommend places to stay before and after the retreat. We also help coordinate transfers.

  • The retreat is designed for people who are working or engaged in a project. There may be space for a small number of guests who are not, as long as the quiet coworking rhythm is respected. We can talk about this on the call to see if it feels like the right fit.

Cultural note

Our retreat overlaps with the final days of Ramadan, a gentle and beautiful time to be on the Moroccan coast. Tamraght remains relaxed and welcoming, and daily life continues as usual. Swimwear is completely normal at the beach and surf spots. In town, choosing outfits that lightly cover shoulders or knees is a simple way to show respect and move comfortably through the village.

During Ramadan alcohol is only sold and served in certain places and generally for foreigners, so expect it to be less visible and less central than usual holiday spots.

If you ever feel unsure about etiquette or clothing, I’m always happy to guide you.

Meet your host

I'm Irena. I design experiences that feel grounding, energising and human.
I previously lived in Tamraght and co-founded an award-winning hostel in the village, which is how I came to know the area through everyday life rather than short visits.And even though its changing quickly, I can still point you to the best cafés, offer local insight and tell you how village life moves.

I work across hospitality, somatics, movement, retreats and creative projects. I like sunlight, good conversation, mediocre coffee, idea-building and authentic environments.

This first edition is the start of a small community I'm growing with curiosity and a sense of play. If it feels like your thing, I'd love to have you join us.
