Michlifen Resort & Golf IFRANE, MOROCCO
In the heart of Morocco’s Middle Atlas, at 5,413ft above sea level, Michlifen Resort & Golf rises like an alpine dream framed by forests and crisp mountain air. Blending European elegance with Moroccan soul, this five-star retreat in Ifrane, often called Little Switzerland, invites travellers to slow down. At Michlifen, gastronomy mirrors this balance
between sophistication and soul. Each restaurant tells its own story, shaped by place and season. Le Cedray celebrates French culinary finesse, with classic techniques elevated by local mountain produce. L’Oriental draws inspiration from the Levant, blending Lebanese, Turkish and Moroccan influences in a symphony of spices and sharing plates. At The Farm, dining becomes a return to roots — slow-cooked tagines, garden-fresh herbs and ancestral Moroccan flavours prepared in traditional clay ovens. Le Chalet, open for lunch, embraces an international spirit, a sunlit brasserie where travellers and golfers gather for relaxed yet elegant moments overlooking the cedar hills. When evening falls, the Lounja bar invites guests to unwind by the fire, with crafted cocktails and jazz.
Beyond its tables, Michlifen is a sanctuary of
wellbeing. Its 37,674sq ft spa celebrates Morocco’s ancestral wellness traditions, combining signature hammam rituals with contemporary techniques. Treatments use marocMaroc products, crafted from argan, rose and orange blossom, offering an authentic sensorial journey that reconnects body and mind. For golfers, the Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course, the first of its kind in North Africa, provides 18 holes of pure challenge framed by mountain peaks and ancient forests. Every detail at Michlifen evokes craftsmanship
and calm — carved wood ceilings, Amazigh motifs, the scent of cedar lingering in the air. Each of the resort’s 71 rooms and suites opens to a view that feels almost cinematic — rolling hills, forest trails and snow-touched peaks. Outside, nature sets the pace. Time slows
between cedar forests and mountain trails, where the air carries the scent of pine and earth. Whether it’s a sunrise walk in the mist, a horse-ride in the meadows or a quiet evening by the fire, every moment at Michlifen restores something within.
