3 Riads and Glampsites That’ll Convince You To Visit Morocco

In Morocco, the type of accommodations you choose to stay in is almost as important as the destinations you choose to visit. In the medinas of popular cities, riad stays are a must to experience traditional Moroccan dwellings that have been converted into boutique hotels or guesthouses, usually with an interior courtyard that makes them undeniably charming. Morocco’s desert experiences are equally famous, meaning camping—or rather glamping—should be on your list of priorities too. From bustling Marrakech to the nearby Agafay Desert and the port city of Essaouira on Morocco’s Atlantic coast, these three accommodations in Morocco are worth traveling for.
We hope you love Ryad Dyor, Riad Baladin, and Inara Camp! Just so you know, Matador may collect a small commission from the links on this page if you decide to book a stay. Listed prices are accurate as of the time of publication.

Ryad Dyor, Marrakech
Ryad Dyor is a luxury boutique hotel located in the heart of Marrakech, Morocco. The property features a small collection of rooms, each uniquely decorated with traditional Moroccan design elements and modern amenities. Ryad Dyor offers a range of services and facilities, including an outdoor swimming pool, spa treatments, a concierge service, and an on-site restaurant serving authentic Moroccan cuisine. The ryad’s central location allows for easy access to nearby attractions and landmarks like Marrakech’s souks and the Bahia Palace.
Riad Baladin, EssaouiraRiad Baladin is a charming boutique in Essaouira, Morocco. Highlights of the property include the rooftop terrace, outdoor pool, and traditional hammam spa. But the best thing about Riad Baladin is its central location in Essaouria’s medina, or old town, which makes for the perfect base camp to explore the port city’s beach, harbor, and historic landmarks like Skala de la Ville.
Inara Camp, Agafay DesertInara Camp is a glampsite in the Agafay Desert just 45 minutes from Marrakech, Morocco. The camp features 10 spacious tents that are elegantly furnished with comfortable beds. Each tent has a private bathroom with hot water and eco-friendly toiletries. While in the desert, guests can enjoy activities ranging from riding quad bikes to riding hot-air balloons over the Atlas Mountains. The camp also offers yoga classes, stargazing sessions, and traditional Moroccan music performances around the campfire.

If you book early enough, it is hard for airlines, even the low-cost ones, to compete with Deutsche Bahn’s lowest fare of $40.45 (37.90 €), especially considering there is no restriction on the amount of luggage you can bring in on the train. Also, note that because the train stations of Amsterdam Centraal and Berlin Hbf are located in the center of those two cities, you won’t have to pay for a bus, subway ride, taxi, Uber, etc. to get to and from the airport.
While flying will take less time than taking the train, in terms of convenience, comfort, food, and ecological impact, riding the train between Amsterdam and Berlin is way better than flying.

Experience the Decadence of Las Vegas at These 10 Essential Restaurants

In Las Vegas nothing is subtle. The flashing signs advertising casinos and over the top circus shows. The ornately decorated hotels. The neon lights of the slot machines. It’s all designed to be eye-catching and energetic. The restaurants are no different. Glamorous dining rooms and bold flavors are what Las Vegas restaurants are all about.
While most people come to Vegas because it’s a gamblers paradise, Las Vegas was once home to several Michelin star restaurants. Today, there is no Michelin guide presence in Las Vegas, but that doesn’t mean the culinary scene there isn’t stellar. From sophisticated Italian dishes, to modern American and traditional Asian cuisines. Of course, there are so many things to do in Las Vegas besides gambling; the city that never sleeps keeps visitors busy. And you might not realize it, but many of the best activities in Las Vegas are actually family friendly. You’ll want to add sitting down for dinner at these Las Vegas to your itinerary, too. Here’s where to book a table.

Tokyo is a city of contrasts, where the old and new stand side by side. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the city’s temples, which range from centuries-old structures that have withstood the test of time to modern buildings that incorporate traditional elements into a contemporary design. These are the hidden temples you might not find on a busy thoroughfare, but are worth taking the extra time to discover.

Zojo-ji Temple
Zojo-ji is a relatively hidden temple located in Tokyo’s Shiba Park district. The temple was founded in 1393 and has been through a number of incarnations over the centuries. The current building dates back to 1457, making it one of the oldest temples in Tokyo. Zojo-ji is known for its large cemetery, which includes a number of interesting tombstones and monuments. It’s one of the best temples in Tokyo for travelers interested in Japanese history and culture.
Kantai-ji TempleKantai-ji is located in Nakano, an area of Tokyo known for its vibrant arts scene. The temple was founded in 1624 and has undergone a number of renovations over the years. Kantai-ji is known for its beautiful garden, which is open to the public year-round. If you’re looking for a peaceful oasis in the middle of the city, Kantai-ji is definitely worth a visit.
Engaku-jiThis temple was founded in 1282 to honor those who lost their lives fighting against the Mongols during the attempted invasion of Japan. The temple complex is huge, covering nearly 33 acres, with several buildings and subtemples scattered throughout its grounds. In addition to its main hall and pagoda, Engaku-ji also has an impressive belltower that dates back to 1708; it’s one of only two surviving Edo Period bell towers in Japan.
Marishiten Tokudaiji TempleLocated in the heart of Tokyo, this temple is known for its beautiful architecture and stunning gardens. It was built in 1659 by Tokugawa Shogunte, and is dedicated to the deity Marishiten, who is the goddess of war. When you first arrive at the temple, you’ll be struck by its peaceful atmosphere. The temple grounds are surrounded by trees, making it feel like you’ve stepped into another world, and as you explore the grounds you’ll find several shrines and statues dedicated to Marishiten. The temple grounds are also home to a museum and a tea house.
Kotoku-in TempleKotoku-in is perhaps best known for its massive bronze statue of Amida Buddha, which stands 43 feet tall and weighs 93 tons. The statue was cast in 1252 and originally housed inside a wooden building that was destroyed by earthquakes and fires. Though not technically in Tokyo — Kotoku-in is located in Kamakura, about an hour south of Tokyo by train — it’s still worth a day-trip to visit. In addition to the Amida Buddha statue, Kotoku-in is also home to a beautiful garden with ponds and streams that are especially lovely in springtime when the Cherry blossoms are in bloom.
Feteer Meshaltet Is Egypt’s Croissant-Like Pastry That’s a Hallmark of the Street Food Scene

There’s more to Egypt than just the pyramids, especially if you’re into street food. If you’re a foodie planning a trip to Egypt, you’ll want to try one of the country’s most famous dishes: feteer meshaltet. This Egyptian meal is a stuffed, savory pastry, and a must try for anyone looking to experience easy to make and packed with flavor, making it the perfect pick for anyone who wants to experience traditional Egyptian cuisine.
@foodwtf Feteer meshaltet is a flaky Egyptian "croissant-like" pastryGive it a try at
Eatery inside the #Cairo Festival City Mall
@emannaguibs #foodie #foodtravel #egyptianfood #feteer ♬ today I wanted a croissant – Laura Gouillon
Dating back centuries, feteer meshaltet consists of layers of thin pastry dough filled with a variety of savory ingredients like ground beef, tomatoes, onions, and spices like cumin and coriander. The dough is then folded into triangles and baked until golden brown. The result is a flaky pastry shell filled with a flavorful meat-and-vegetable filling.
Feteer meshaltet is typically served hot or warm with yogurt or tahini sauce on the side for dipping. It can also be topped with sesame seeds or nuts for added crunch and flavor, and some people even like to sprinkle sugar on top for an extra sweet kick.
The dish can be found all over Egypt, from street vendors to high-end restaurants. Street vendors usually sell the pastries pre-made and ready to eat, while at restaurants they may be made fresh upon request. Seeking out feteer meshalteh while in Egypt is also a great way to support local businesses. Not only do these small food stands help keep traditional recipes alive, they also provide employment opportunities to locals who might otherwise have difficulty finding work elsewhere. Additionally, since feteer meshalteh relies heavily on fresh ingredients like vegetables and meat that can be sourced locally, it helps create economic opportunities for farmers and ranchers who may not have access to larger markets or distribution networks. 
7 Essential Barcelona Restaurants To Try on Your Next Trip To Spain

When it comes to food Italy and France tend to hog the spotlight, but Spain deserves serious accolades for its culinary scene – and Barcelona in particular. The capital of Spain’s Catalonia region, Barcelona is famous for Mediterranean-inspired dishes that incorporate seafood and salty meats. This city does not fly under the radar when it comes to gastronomy either: 30 Barcelona restaurants have been awarded Michelin stars.
If you’re visiting Barcelona, you will probably want to try paella and jamon Iberico, and experience the city’s legendary tapas bars. With its cathedrals, passionate football culture, and iconic architecture, there’s so much to explore in Barcelona. Even the parks in Barcelona are some of the best in Spain. But tasting as much delicious Catalonian food should be at the top of your list. Here are the essential Barcelona restaurants to try on your next trip.
DisfrutarView this post on InstagramA post shared by Disfrutar Restaurant (@disfrutarbcn)
Mediterranean seafood focused Disfrutar has two Michelin stars. The restaurant is known for its playful and inventive way of transforming food – experimenting with shape and texture in each of its dishes. There are two tasting menus: Classic, comprised of the restaurant’s signature dishes, and festival, which highlights seasonal ingredients.

At Con Gracia, the Mediterranean fare typical of Barcelona gets an Asian twist. The winter tasting menu included a salmon roll and suckling pig as mains. However, there is also a mystery tasting menu which surprises guests with a chef’s choice of dishes.
Con Gracia: C. de Martínez de la Rosa, 8, 08012 Barcelona, Spain
Price: $$$

One of Barcelona’s three Michelin star restaurants is Lasarte. The most coveted seats in the restaurant are in the loft-like space called the Chef’s Table, which overlooks the kitchen, allowing guests to witness the preparation and plating process. Inspired by the cuisine of the Basque region, the restaurant highlights ingredients like wagyu, eel, caviar, adn black truffle.
Lasarte: C/ de Mallorca, 259, 08008 Barcelona, Spain
Price: $$$$

With minimal seating – there are around six tables total in the dining room – this restaurant is all about personal attention. Chef and owner Vidal Gravalosa is the restaurant’s central employee. He doesn’t just cook the food, he brings it to your table, explains each dish in detail, and rings you up at the end of the night. He’s even the sommelier. The eight course tasting menu includes several desserts.
La Forquilla: C/ d’Aragó, 152, 08011 Barcelona, Spain
Price: $$$$

Always crowded, Bar Cañete is the best place to eat tapas in Barcelona. The energetic restaurant is best enjoyed with a group of friends – you won’t find a subdued fine dining atmosphere here, but rather lively conversation and a long wine list. Bar Cañete is known for the freshness of its ingredients. Guests can enjoy Iberian pork, oysters, scallops, and squid here.
Bar Cañete: Carrer de la Unió, 17, 08001 Barcelona, Spain
Price: $$$
View this post on InstagramA post shared by Besta Barcelona (@bestabarcelona)
Influenced by the cuisines of the Galicia and Catalunya regions of Spain, Besta’s menu focuses on seasonal produce and fresh seafood. Because the restaurant is so reliant on fresh, in-season food, the menu changes constantly. Shrimp and calamari have both appeared on the menu in the past, and even the gin has an ocean-theme: it’s distilled with algae and oysters.
Besta: C/ d’Aribau, 106, 08036 Barcelona, Spain
Price: $$
View this post on InstagramA post shared by * Berbena (@berbenabcn)
Though Berbena enjoys Bib Gourmand recognition from the Michelin guide, this restaurant doesn’t have a stuffy or pretentious atmosphere. The menu focuses on Asia and South America flavors. Loaves of bread are freshly baked every day, and most of the produce that comes through the kitchen is organic. Not well known among tourists, come here if you want to mingle with Barcelona locals.

Weekend Escape: A Luxury Rooftop Pool, Fine Art, and High-End Shopping in West Midtown Atlanta

Atlanta is rightfully famous for many things, but Mediterranean-influenced pool clubs are not on that list. Just don’t tell that to the team behind Rooftop L.O.A., a rooftop pool and lounge in West Midtown Atlanta that opened in 2022 at the top of The Interlock. Only, instead of the Med, the 1,200-square-foot pool with surrounding cabanas and lounge chair service look out on the Atlanta skyline.
L.O.A. stands for Leave of Absence. It could just as easily stand for luxury on arrival. A full-service, 8,000-square-foot restaurant serves options like extravagant plates of fruit and must-order lobster rolls. From the bar, sparkling wine, beer, and cocktails flow. It’s operated by Slater Hospitality, which also did the beloved The Roof at Ponce City Market.

Atlanta is one of my favorite cities. I’ve made many trips over the years since falling for Atlanta while going to school in Auburn, Alabama. None of those trips started off with the bliss of a trip last fall that started with decompressing at L.O.A. By day, the gentle flow of air from the cabana fans cooled me off between dips in the pool and orders from the bar. The only obstruction of the view was the occasional influencer getting their content with the pool in the foreground and the tops of buildings in the background (while carefully avoiding an angle that would show the parking deck a few levels below). It wasn’t the image of Atlanta that I’d grown to love, but it was exactly the start to the trip I needed after a red eye from Denver. And if I stayed into the night, local friends told me, DJ sets from the booth at the far end of the pool would be reason enough to stay until closing.

It seemed to embody the energy of the part of Atlanta that’s now known as West Midtown.
A changing neighborhoodWest Midtown is having a bit of a moment in Atlanta. That said, the idea of there being a “West Midtown” at all has been debated over the past couple of decades of rapid building and repurposing. The name itself is more of a marketing term from real estate developers than a neighborhood recognized by long-time locals (much like DUMBO in Brooklyn, East Cut in San Francisco, RiNo in Denver, and even Midtown in Atlanta after a building boom in the late 1900s). West Midtown has also had its fair share of criticism as a place gentrified for “new” Atlanta as the industrial warehouses turned into art centers and then commercial enterprises.
The real estate services firm Cushman and Wakefield recently called the neighborhood “Atlanta’s New Horizon” in a market analysis thanks to the rush of new development. Growth is largely being driven by people born in 1981 or after who are moving to the area — the demographic makes up 78 percent of West Midtown’s population, of which 71 percent have a bachelor’s degree or higher, according to the market analysis.
It’s far from the only part of Atlanta that has drastically changed since the 90s. The population of metro Atlanta nearly doubled between 1990 and 2020. A flurry of investment from filming studios, developers, and entrepreneurs rushed in with the newcomers. The Atlanta BeltLine project matured and shops, restaurants, and bars popped up along the popular pedestrian route.
The attention paid to the BeltLine created a central spot for all types of recreation for visitors and residents alike. Today, West Midtown is creating a similar draw as new developments are completed and the buildings originally used as factories and warehouses in the 1880s are increasingly turned into the types of shops, restaurants, and bars that draw people in.
