Habitas, the rapidly growing global eco-hospitality group, is preparing to open its second property in Morocco, Caravan Dakhla, which is set on the shores of Dakhla lagoon…
Following the arrival Caravan Agafay, situated in the desert, Habitas is about to settle in with its second hotel that will be located in Dakhla.
Known as a leading watersport destination with its unique lagoon, crystal blue waters and consistent winds, Dakhla is renowned among explorers looking to discover a place where nature takes centre stage. With this in mind, Caravan Dakhla will be focused on reconnecting with nature through the pursuit of adventure. Habitas’ newest home will embrace its locality offering guests immersive experiences both in and out of the water bringing a unique vibe to the region through its key pillars of adventure, music, wellness, food, art & culture and learning.

“Caravan Dakhla is the second launch for Habitas in Morocco, and follows swiftly on from the opening of Caravan Agafay,” said Oliver Ripley, Co-Founder & CEO of Habitas. “Dakhla is one of the top kitesurfing locations in the world and ideal for beginners and advanced. Each location taps into our core values of offering unique and transformative travel experiences, with Dakhla offering something entirely different due to its connection with the lagoon. We’re planning to launch additional homes in Morocco in equally diverse settings.”
Targeted towards ‘experience seekers with a pioneering spirit for community and adventure’, each of the Caravan Homes aims to provide guests adventure without boundaries, connecting like-minded explorers on a non-traditional, unforgettable journey. Additionally, for every guest that stays at Caravan Dakhla, Habitas will donate to its RISE Fund – the brand’s impact initiative to support local communities, create jobs and give back to local environmental and social causes.
