The Gym BnB
Apartment with a private gym in Morocco
TheApartGym is a rooftop apartment in Tamraght, between Agadir and Taghazout on the Atlantic coast of Morocco, built around a private gym. Guests call it a gym BnB: you sleep, train and recover in the same place, with the ocean in view from the terrace. Here is how it works, what you get and who it suits.
What is a gym BnB?
A place to stay where a real gym is part of the accommodation. It is not a gym open to the public: the gym is reserved for people staying at TheApartGym. The training floor shares the open space with the bedroom and the kitchen, and it opens onto the rooftop.
Yozi, a performance coach, has hosted travellers on this rooftop since 2018 and built the gym himself, choosing each piece for serious training. The idea is simple: no commute to a gym, no waiting for machines, and training that fits your own schedule.
The equipment covers strength, conditioning and recovery: dumbbells up to 40 kg, plates from 1 to 25 kg, a rack, machines, a SkiErg, an airbike and a 10 m turf sled on the rooftop.
Can you rent the whole apartment or just one spot?
Both. Rent the whole apartment for up to 3 guests, or book a single shared spot at a reduced price if you travel alone and are happy to share the space.
With the whole apartment, the place is yours: one bedroom with 2 single beds and a sofa bed for a 3rd guest (provided that guest accepts the sofa bed), the bathroom, the kitchen, the rooftop, and a gym for the people staying in the apartment.
A shared spot is one bed for one person, with up to 2 shared spots taken at the same time. In Sharing, the gym is shared with the other guests, with time slots agreed with the host. A stay in Sharing lasts up to 15 nights; the whole apartment has no maximum stay. You can switch between the two on the booking calendar, which shows availability and the full price for your dates.
What makes it different from a classic holiday rental?
The gym. Instead of a living room built around a sofa and a TV, the apartment is organised around a full training floor and a rooftop made for conditioning, steps from where you sleep.
In practice, that means:
- Training without leaving the apartment, in the time slots agreed with the host if you are in Sharing
- Real equipment chosen by a coach, not two dumbbells and a mat
- An ocean-view rooftop terrace for sprints, sled work and recovery
- Optional private coaching with Yozi at 35€ per hour, and optional Nutrition (breakfast + dinner) at 30€ per day per guest
- A fully equipped kitchen, a washing machine, wifi throughout and parking on site
What else should you know before booking?
The apartment is on the 2nd floor with its own entrance up an outside spiral staircase, so you never walk through anyone else’s space. Check-in is flexible and arranged with Yozi on WhatsApp.
Pets are welcome. Smoking is not allowed inside or on the terrace, and alcohol is not permitted anywhere on the premises.
Payment is simple: a 40% deposit online secures your dates, and the balance is paid on arrival.
Who is a gym apartment rental for?
Anyone who wants their training to keep going while they travel: athletes and coaches, solo travellers on a shared spot, couples, and people staying for several weeks.
Guests so far include fitness coaches, athletes, digital nomads, and a nurse who came back for a second stay to keep training with Yozi. Couples have stayed here together, and the shared spot is there for solo travellers who want the gym at a lower price.
For long stays, a long-stay discount is applied automatically, cleaning during the stay is available on request, and the kitchen, the mini-markets in the village and the weekly souks make everyday life easy.
Where is it, and how do you get there?
In Tamraght, a village on the Atlantic coast between Agadir and Taghazout, in the south of Morocco. Agadir Al Massira airport is about 35 to 45 minutes away by car or taxi.
Tamraght is a quiet village known for its beaches and the hills around it. Tamraght beach is about 5 to 10 minutes on foot from the apartment, and mini-markets are a short walk away. Taghazout is about 5 to 10 minutes by car and the centre of Agadir about 15 to 20 minutes, depending on traffic. The practical guide has the route from the airport on a map, plus parking and shopping.
