The Magic of Moroccan Hammam: What to Expect at Riad Adika & Spa

There’s no better way to experience true Moroccan wellness than with a traditional hammam ritual — an ancient practice that purifies both body and mind.
At Riad Adika & Spa, the hammam experience combines centuries-old Moroccan beauty traditions with modern comfort, creating a moment of total relaxation.

💧 Step 1 – The Warm Steam

Your experience begins in the warm marble hammam, where gentle steam opens your pores and helps your body release toxins. The heat relaxes your muscles and prepares your skin for deep cleansing.

🧴 Step 2 – Black Soap & Exfoliation

Once your body is relaxed, our therapist applies the famous “savon noir” (black soap) — a natural olive-based paste that deeply cleanses and softens the skin. Then comes the exfoliation with a traditional kessa glove, removing dead skin cells to reveal a fresh, smooth complexion.

🌿 Step 3 – Ghassoul Clay & Rose Water

After rinsing, your skin is covered with Ghassoul clay from the Atlas Mountains, rich in minerals, followed by rose water to hydrate and soothe.
You’ll instantly feel refreshed and renewed.

💆 Step 4 – Relaxing Massage

Finish your journey with a relaxing massage using argan oil, designed to ease tension and leave your body soft and your mind calm.

🌸 The Riad Adika Touch

Our hammam and spa area is a peaceful sanctuary located in the heart of the riad — intimate, candlelit, and beautifully scented with eucalyptus and orange blossom.

Whether you come for a 30-minute quick treatment or a royal full ritual, each session is an invitation to slow down and reconnect with yourself.
