Ever wake up and wish you could just hit the reset button? Swap the city noise for the sound of waves, and the morning rush for a gentle sunrise? That's what life is like here at The Horizon Tamraght. We want you to leave behind those crowded, chaotic surf camps and join us for a personalized experience where it feels like home. You'll connect with a small, friendly group of people who are all here for the same reason: to chill out and enjoy the good life.


In this post, we'll give you a little tour of why our spot is a favorite among our guests (and us, too!). It's more than just a guesthouse; it’s a way of life. We're here to show you how a little slice of paradise on a calm hillside of Morocco can be your ultimate relaxation retreat. We'll walk you through a typical day, from the quiet moments of a Tamraght sunrise to the shared stories under a blanket of stars.


Our Spot: A Vibe That Just Feels Right

Ready to trade your to-do list for a ritual like this? Our home is filled with these peaceful moments, waiting to be discovered.

The vibe here is something special, and it all starts with the house itself. We're perched on a peaceful hillside, giving us the best spot in all of Tamraght to just sit back and take in the stunning sea and mountain views of Tamraght. From our open-air terrace, you can watch the world stretch out before you-the vast blue ocean on one side, and the rugged, sun-drenched mountains on the other. It's the kind of place where you instantly feel at ease, a perfect balance of tranquility and natural beauty.


Inside, the house is a total celebration of Moroccan culture. The walls are painted in warm, earthy tones, and the floors are a mosaic of intricate tiles that tell a story of craftsmanship. We've filled the space with beautiful, handcrafted details-like the woven rugs and cozy cushions-that make it a truly authentic Moroccan guesthouse. It's not just a place to stay; it's a place to live, relax, and soak up the local charm. The sunlight streams in through large windows, making every room feel bright and airy, and the scent of fresh mint tea often wafts through the air. You’ll notice the little things that make this place feel so personal, from the color palettes to the delicate lanterns that cast a warm glow in the evening.


We believe that true unwinding starts with your environment. Every color, every texture, and every piece of furniture has been chosen to create a surf house that soothes the senses. There’s a certain magic that happens when you sit down with a cup of tea, feeling the cool floor beneath your feet and watching the sunlight shift through the room.


Your New Favorite Corner

We love a good chat and a shared meal, but we also know how important it is to have your own space. That's why our guesthouse is full of cozy nooks and quiet corners. You can find the perfect spot to curl up with a book after a surf, sip your morning coffee in peace, or just sit and daydream before bed.


Our open-air lounge is a huge hit. It's got the best views, the most amazing breeze, and comfy seating. Imagine this: after a day of catching waves, you find your way to a comfortable seat with soft cushions, the sea air on your face. From this vantage point, you can watch the last of the day’s surfers from above, listening to the gentle murmur of conversation from others in the house, or simply get lost in your own thoughts. Whether you want to reflect, read, or simply be, you'll find the perfect place at our calm hillside location.


Enjoy the windows that looks out over the village below and the mountains in the distance. It’s the kind of place where you can spend hours with a book and feel completely at peace. These are the kinds of spaces that define our surf accommodation-places designed for quiet moments and deep breaths.


Sunsets, Surf, and Simple Joys

You'll quickly find that sunrise and sunset are big events here. And we have to say, the view from our rooftop is next-level. Watching the sun melt into the ocean, painting the sky with fiery colors, is one of our favorite things to do with our guests. It's a shared moment of simple beauty that just hits differently here. On some evenings, a guitar might come out, or someone might share a story from their travels, and often, we just sit in a comfortable silence, each of us taking in the beauty.


Our Tamraght lifestyle is all about slowing down and being present. We believe that everything you do should connect you to the moment, whether you're taking surf lessons or joining in for a yoga session. We welcome everyone, offering awesome Surf & Stay packages and private lessons for those who want to start or continue their surfing journey without the pressure. Our experienced instructors focus on making sure you not only learn to surf, but you do it in a way that feels relaxed and fun, without the pressure of a crowded surf school. It’s about being in the moment, feeling the water, and celebrating every small victory.


This spot is also a dream for digital nomads and remote workers. We get it-you need good Wi-Fi to do your thing. So, we've made sure our guesthouse is a remote worker friendly spot in Morocco with space where you can work, surf, and stay. You'll find quiet corners to focus, reliable internet to get your work done, and a supportive community to help you maintain a healthy work-life balance. If you need to take a break from home, there are plenty of wonderful cafés to work at. We have written an entire blog dedicated to the best coffee shops to work in Tamrgaht.


More Than Just a Surf Trip

Tamraght beach vibes: surf, sun, and a touch of tradition.

What really sets us apart is the genuine connection to local culture in Tamraght. This isn't just about surfing; it's about getting a feel for the real Morocco. We love sharing home-cooked meals together, made with fresh ingredients from the local markets and the sweetes amazing chef ever, our local neighbour, Khadija. Our communal dinners are where friendships are forged and the day's adventures are relived. It’s a chance to connect with people from all over the world, all drawn to this little slice of paradise for the same reason: to slow down and find joy in the simple things.


We also encourage you to explore beyond the beach. Take a walk through the bustling local market, where the air is filled with the scent of spices and the sound of vendors' calls. Share a traditional tagine meal with a local family, learning about their way of life and the deep sense of hospitality that Morocco is famous for. You can take a hike into the mountains, ride a camel along the beach, slide in the sand dunes, or just get a feel for the daily rhythm of life here. It’s a chance to truly unplug and find your own pace.


We truly believe that the art of unwinding is a skill, and it's one we have perfected here. It's a combination of the peaceful environment, the rhythm of the ocean, the warmth of the people, and the simplicity of daily life.
