Overview
For our third year of Moroccan pop-ups, we've sourced our new, exclusive boutique sports villa which is 40 minutes from the city, and we're set to have a lot of fun and games in our new facilities. With all of the tranquility you'll need to unwind and recharge after a day of fun, fitness and adventure! Marrakesh has the perfect climate for winter camps - warm and dry during the day and chilly lounge log fires and clear skies at night - and at only one hour ahead of the UK and less than a 4-hour flight, it's the ideal time and place for a new year re-set to escape the leftover cheese and Baileys. Our 2025 programme is fresh and exciting, with new trips, training courts, and added multi-racket and ball games along with hilarious team challenges. What's included: - boutique accommodation, with your choice of room - return airport transfers - our plant-based menu with a Moroccan twist - The Body Camp Morocco training programme - 12 Captains Coaching for health and mndset - yoga and meditation sessions - cold water therapy - a day out to the stunning Ouzoud waterfalls, and a boat trip - a shopping trip to the souks for a 'shop till you drop' experience - pickleball, basketball, netball and badminton - full training given - poolside hammam (traditional Moroccan hot steam treatment) and a massage (1 session of each included) Only 40 minutes from the airport, facilities at the villa include: - two outdoor swimming pools (one heated, one unheated) - a shaded pool house with lounge - a roof-top terrace and lounge area overlooking the sports facilities - private floodlit pickleball court - private floodlit basketball court - private floodlit petanque court - table tennis - outdoor fitness gym area - hammam - sauna - wi-fi - air-conditioned bedrooms - indoor and outdoor dining areas With only 9 double/twin bedrooms available over four Saturday-to-Saturday weekly retreats (25th January-22nd February), this North African pop-up will inevitably be the same sell-out as our previous camps in 2023 and 2024, so book early to avoid missing out. Multi-week stays available. Our unique Body Camp combination of fun, physical and mental exercise, incredible food and exploration, combined with the sights and sounds of this beautiful, culturally-rich country will leave you ready to start the new year as the best version you can be - and hopefully with a tan, too!

FAQs
What time is check-in?
Check-in on the Saturday of arrival starts at 16.00 until 19.00. A Welcome evening meal will be served at 19.00.
We do appreciate that flights to Marrakesh from some airports are limited, and may not arrive until late in the evening - if this is the case, please email us (info@thebodycamp.com) or call us on +44 (0)1548 859 552 to discuss.
What time is check-out?
Check-out on departure day is 09.00. Unfortunately, we're unable to offer luggage storage or late check-outs as Saturdays are our changeover days.
If your departure flight is later in the day, you could buy a day pass for one of the larger hotels in Marrakesh, such as The Four Seasons, Savoy Le Grand Hotel, or Diwane Hotel & Spa for approximately £70-£120. You can use the hotel facilities, store luggage, etc.
Alternatively, how about a pamper day at Les Bains de Marrakech? https://www.lesbainsdemarrakech.com/
There are also several left luggage storage facilities in the city for an hourly rate. Do contact the office on +44 (0)1548 859 552/info@thebodycamp.com if you need any assistance.
Is there an airport transfer?
Yes, the cost of your stay includes return airport transfers on arrival and departure days. Our partner transfer company will meet you at the airport, and the transfer time to The Body Camp villa is 30-40 minutes.
What is the local currency?
The currency in Marrakesh is the Moroccan Dirham (MAD), which is made up of 100 centimes. When it comes to Marrakesh currency, the most important thing for you to know is that the Dirham is non-convertible. That means it’s illegal to take it in or out of the country, so you’ll need to take your spending money to Marrakesh in your own currency, and then change it into the local currency when you arrive.
It’s easy to exchange your currency for Marrakesh currency when you arrive at the airport. However, you’re more likely to get a better rate when you arrive in the centre of Marrakesh, either at major hotels or the Bureau de Change. Remember to keep your receipt in a safe place, as you may need to convert your dirhams back before you leave the country.
Another option is to withdraw your Marrakesh currency directly from ATM machines. It’s worth noting that credit cards are widely accepted here, but there may be a surcharge for using them, especially in smaller shops and restaurants. Just remember to inform your bank that you’re travelling to Morocco before you leave your own country.
It’s advisable to take small denominations of cash when you’re visiting the souks (markets).
What's the weather like?
The climate in Marrakesh in January/February is perfect for exercising; warm (but not too warm) and dry during the day, and chilly at night so that you can snuggle up in front of our log fire.
Average minimum and maximum daytime temperature in January: 12-19 degrees celsius/54-66 degrees fahrenheit
Average minimum and maximum night time temperature in January: 0-8 degrees celsius/32-46 degrees fahrenheit
Average monthly rainfall in January: 1-2 inches
Average hours of sunshine in January: 7 hours/day
When does the programme start?
The fitness programme will start early on Sunday morning and run through until the Friday afternoon.
Will I lose weight at The Body Camp?
Firstly, we're not a weight loss boot camp; we are a holistic health and fitness retreat, and our aim is to to help you become the very best version of yourself by working on your mental and physical wellbeing.
Many guests do lose weight by participating in our programme, but we don't weigh guests in camp. If you wish to monitor your weight, please weigh yourself at home before you arrive.
