🌅 Rituel Marrakech
Hammam, Splendor of the Orient scrub and blow-dry. The ideal escape to discover the hammam.
Book
The Moroccan hammam is far more than a simple steam bath: it is a ritual of body and mind purification passed down through generations in the imperial cities of Fès, Marrakech and Meknès. An heir to Roman baths and the Arab-Andalusian tradition, it holds a central place in Moroccan art of living.
Unlike a dry sauna, the hammam relies on warm, humid steam that gently opens the pores. The body is then coated with black soap — a natural paste made from black olives and olive oil — then vigorously exfoliated with the kessa glove, which removes dead skin and reveals new, smooth and radiant skin.
The ritual often continues with a rhassoul wrap, a mineral clay from the Middle Atlas renowned for its purifying and remineralising properties. At Sultana, every gesture faithfully respects this tradition, with authentic products imported from Morocco.
In Mauritius, many establishments offer a "hammam" that is in fact merely a steam cabin. Sultana is different.
Our team is trained in traditional hammam techniques, passed down in the pure tradition of Morocco's imperial cities.
Black soap, kessa glove, Middle Atlas rhassoul, argan oil, rose water: our ingredients come directly from Morocco.
A steam room designed according to Moroccan hammam codes, for an immersive experience true to the original.
You settle into the humid warmth of the hammam. The steam envelops the body, relaxes the muscles and prepares the skin by deeply opening the pores.
The body is coated with black soap, a smooth olive-based paste. It is left to work for a few minutes to soften dead skin and nourish the epidermis.
This is the heart of the ritual: a vigorous scrub with the kessa glove that removes dead cells. The skin is instantly softer, smoother, cleansed of its impurities.
A mineral clay applied all over the body, sometimes enriched with rose water, aker fassi or nila. It purifies, remineralises and leaves the skin velvety.
The ritual ends gently: argan oil hydration, a relaxing massage or simply a mint tea to prolong this sensory journey.
After the scrub, the skin receives the best of Moroccan nature. Each wrap has its own virtues.
Volcanic clay from the Middle Atlas. It purifies, softens and remineralises the skin — the base of all our body wraps.
A natural blend of dried poppy and pomegranate. It brightens the complexion, regenerates and softens the skin.
A precious woody resin with deep oriental notes. It relaxes, hydrates and leaves an intense, bewitching fragrance.
A blue powder from the Sahara, brightening and illuminating. Ideal for reviving dull skin or skin prone to dark spots.
The scrub removes dead cells, refines skin texture and reveals a radiant, glowing complexion.
The humid heat releases muscle tension and soothes the mind. A true letting-go.
The steam boosts blood circulation and promotes the elimination of toxins through perspiration.
Beyond the treatment, the hammam is a moment for yourself, a restorative pause in a busy daily life.
Three signature rituals to discover the experience, from the most essential to the most complete.

BookSultana welcomes both women and men in dedicated time slots, to preserve everyone's privacy and comfort. The Moroccan hammam is not reserved for women: it is a mixed ritual by tradition, and our rituals for men are increasingly popular in Mauritius.
A sauna uses dry heat (70 to 100°C), while the Moroccan hammam relies on humid steam at a gentler temperature. This humidity deeply opens the pores and allows the black soap scrub, a step impossible in a dry sauna.
Nothing in particular: everything is provided on site (towels, products, robe). You simply need to bring a swimsuit. We recommend arriving a few minutes early to fully enjoy your ritual.
It depends on the chosen package. Our signature rituals last from 1h45 to 2h45. A hammam with scrub alone lasts about 45 minutes. Allow more time if you add a massage or wrap.
The intense heat of the hammam is generally not recommended during pregnancy. We do, however, offer a specially adapted mum-to-be massage. Feel free to contact us for personalised advice.
