The Agafay Studio is a truly inspiring song writing studio based in the historic heart of Marrakech, Morroco, in a renovated 15th century riad
Abel Dammoussi's Agafay is the first Morrocco recording studio to join the Miloco Group. We were delighted to welcome on board in 2014 this stunning residential writing retreat in the heart of Marrakech, undoubtedly one of Africa's most iconic, vibrant and inspiring cities.
The Agafay Studio is based in a traditional Moroccan riad in the heart of the Medina, Marrakech's old and historic district. It is a stone's throw the Jmaa El Fnaa, arguably Marrackech's most famous landmark; a buzzing square filled with street performers, acrobats, musicians, food stalls and more which work around the clock, day and night. It is a fanatic place to have so close to one of Marrakech's top recording studios - melting pot of cultural inspiration. Away from the square, the rest of the Medina is characterised by its labyrinth of ancient bizarres and alleyways which are lined with all sorts of traditional Moroccan stalls. For clients at The Agafay Studio you could not find a more Moroccan experience.

The studio itself is the perfect writing room providing musicians with a Pro Tools rig, good monitor setup, some microphones, backline and plenty of atmospheric space to work in. Bring some instruments of your own and settle down into this fantastic Morrocan writing studio.
The rest of the riad is filled with six stunning bedrooms and quintessential Arabic living spaces. Tiled mosaics, lanterns, original feature pillars, beautiful furniture and balconies over looking the Medina, and it can all be rented on top of the studio on a bedroom-by-bedroom basis.
As part of the Agafay experience, clients also have easy access to the Kasbah Agafay, Abel's luxury hotel based half an hour from Marrakech in stunning rural Morocco. Here there is an exceptional restaurant, swimming pool and spa facilities, camel riding, quad biking and a whole lot more - a great excursion on a day off from songwriting.
