The Palace by the Sea, Reimagined

With a dramatic location at the edge of the Atlantic, Four Seasons Hotel Rabat is located at Kasr Al Bahr, meaning “Palace by the Sea.” Encompassing five hectares (12 acres), this sprawling complex was built at the end of the 18th century as the summer residence of Morocco’s Sultan Moulay Slimane. The palace later served as a military hospital before closing in 1999. Now Four Seasons has restored and reimagined this magnificent property, including 11 buildings – six historical and five brand new. Mesmerizing at every turn, it’s like stepping into an Arabian fairy tale featuring Moorish architecture with domed rooftops, arched doorways and fountained courtyards. Experience a lifestyle of royal luxury in this one-of-a-kind ocean retreat.

Rabat is a true hidden gem. We are so excited to share this royal capital with all its history and culture, enhancing your stay with world-class Four Seasons hospitality.
