Marrakech Day Pass: The Best Pool & Spa Day Passes for 2026

Spend a day by the pool in Marrakech without booking a hotel. Here are the best Marrakech day passes — led by Lodge K in the Palmeraie — with what's included, opening hours and how to book.

A Marrakech day pass is the easiest way to enjoy a five-star pool, a sun-lounger and a proper lunch without staying the night. You reserve online, turn up for the day, and pay on arrival — no hotel booking required. Below are our favourite day-pass venues around Marrakech, starting with the Palmeraie classic, Lodge K.

What is a Marrakech day pass?

A day pass gives non-guests access to a hotel or club's pool and grounds for the day, usually with a sun-lounger, a towel and the option of a lunch or dinner formula. Most venues sit in the green Palmeraie or out toward the Agafay desert, 15–40 minutes from the medina. With MaJourneys you reserve for free and pay on the day in dirham or by card — there is no online payment, and confirmation comes by WhatsApp.

1. Lodge K Day Pass — the Palmeraie favourite

Lodge K Boutique Hôtel & Spa is a five-star retreat hidden in the palm groves on the Route de Fès, about a 15-minute drive from Marrakech. The Classic Day Pass (750 dh) includes the pool, a sun-lounger, towel and a sit-down lunch or dinner (starter + main, or main + dessert). Service is non-stop from 8 a.m. to 11:30 p.m., so you can make a full day of it or come for a long dinner under the palms. There is an afternoon formula (4–11 p.m.) at 450 dh per adult / 250 dh per child with a cocktail, plus spa upgrades — a 60-minute massage (1,400 dh) or a hammam-scrub and massage (1,900 dh). Children aged 3–11 pay 450 dh; under-3s pay 150 dh for the menu only.

2. Le Bédouin Pool — a desert lake-pool in Agafay

For something more dramatic, Le Bédouin Pool sits in the Agafay desert, where a lake-shaped pool spreads across a wide terrace of sun-loungers and umbrellas facing the stony hills. The on-site Moroccan restaurant serves lunch and dinner, and packages run across the day — pool with lunch, pool with a dinner show, or the dinner show on its own. Hotel pickup from Marrakech is available as a paid add-on.

3. Dar Noujoum Pool — a quiet garden escape

Dar Noujoum Pool is a calm garden day pass for anyone who just wants a lounger, shade and a swim away from the crowds. The pass covers pool access and the grounds; food and drinks at the poolside restaurant are billed separately. Hotel pickup is available as a paid add-on, and cancellation is free up to 24 hours before.

4. Lumaya Garden — open-air pool & restaurant

Lumaya Garden is an open-air pool and restaurant in the Palmeraie, open daily from 11 a.m. to 2 a.m. Choose a sun-lounger, a bed or a VIP bed, and add a lunch formula (starter + main, or main + dessert) with access to the pétanque court. The kitchen is Mediterranean, built around herbs from the garden, with small extras like a rose-water cooling towel on arrival and a fruit-skewer plate in the afternoon.

How a Marrakech day pass works

  • Reserve free, pay on arrival. Book your date online; pay at the venue in dirham (MAD) or by card. No online payment is taken.
  • Bring the essentials. Swimwear, sunscreen and a hat; a towel is usually included. Cash or card is handy for extra drinks.
  • Getting there. Most venues are 15–40 minutes from the medina; several offer hotel pickup as a paid add-on at booking.
  • Free cancellation. Plans change — cancellation is free up to 24 hours before, and confirmation comes by WhatsApp.

Which Marrakech day pass should you choose?

For a polished pool-and-spa day close to the city, book Lodge K. For desert drama, choose Le Bédouin; for a quiet garden swim, Dar Noujoum; and for a long, food-led afternoon, Lumaya Garden. Also worth a look is Les Sources de l'Atlas, a relaxed pool set toward the foothills. Whichever you pick, you reserve in seconds and pay on the day.
