Corporate Wellness · Erg Chegaga · Morocco
A Corporate Wellness Retreat
in the Sahara
A real pause for a whole team. No signal, no screens, a covered space for your sessions and the desert to yourselves.

Wellbeing programmes need somewhere that is actually quiet
Most wellbeing offsites struggle for a simple reason: everyone still has a phone in the pocket and a meeting in the head. At Umnya there is no network at the camp. The nearest signal is a twenty minute walk there and back, so the pause is real and it is shared.
The camp has eight tent suites, each with a real bed and a private bathroom, and welcomes up to twenty people. A team can take the camp entirely, so your sessions, your silences and your late conversations belong to your group alone.
We are the venue, not the programme provider. Your facilitator, coach or wellbeing partner leads the days, and our team looks after everything else, from the meals to the 4x4s.
What a Programme Can Look Like
No fixed agenda unless you want one. A rhythm that the desert sets.
Sunrise movement
Walking, stretching or yoga on the dunes at first light, led by your own facilitator. Breakfast is waiting when you return.
Sessions in the shade
A covered communal tent, rugs and low tables, far from any screen. Workshops, circles and one to one conversations, indoors or in the open air.
The afternoon off
Time to do nothing: a camel ride at sunset, sandboarding, bread baked beneath the embers, or a long silence on a dune.
Evenings by the fire
Dinner cooked on site, the fire, and a Bortle class 1 sky. Stargazing with an astronomer and a telescope can be added.
What Is Included
The camp is yours, and so is the quiet.
The camp for your team
Eight tent suites with private bathrooms, the common areas and the desert around you. Up to twenty people.
A chef and full board
Meals cooked on site with fresh local produce, bread baked in the sand. Dietary needs are met with advance notice.
A covered space for sessions
Rugs, shade and quiet for workshops, circles and talks, indoors or outdoors.
4x4 transfers from M'Hamid
The 60 km of piste, about 1 hour 30, in our 4x4s. We coordinate the rest of the journey from your arrival airport.
Moments to share
Camel rides, sandboarding, bread under the embers, the dunes by candlelight, stargazing: chosen with you.
A team on site
Discreet and attentive, so that your group can concentrate on the programme.
Who Brings a Team Here
Different roles, the same need for a real pause
People and culture teams
HR and wellbeing leads who want a pause that a whole team lives together, far from the office and its notifications.
Wellbeing and retreat organisers
A venue for the groups you already lead. You design the programme, we handle the ground.
Leadership teams
A quiet place to step back, talk properly and come home with a shared rhythm.
Getting There
We coordinate the ground journey from your arrival airport
Fly into Marrakech and cross the Atlas and the Drâa valley by road, about 8 hours 45 to the camp, or fly into Zagora, about three hours by 4x4 from the camp, with flights from Casablanca. We coordinate all ground transport and tell you the plan before you travel.
