The artist's dome, nested in the trees
Fes
A queen bed in emerald and forest green, with the trees close on every side. The quietest of the three, and the one that asks something of you.

Sleeps Two
The Artist's Dome.
Of the three, Fes sits deepest in the trees — forest pressing close on every side, the light coming through green. It's the one I think of as the artist's dome. The one for the woman who brought a notebook and means to use it.
I named it for the city I was born in. Fes is a place of saints and scholars, of a medina so old and so tangled that people have gotten lost in it for a thousand years. It's where I learned that the sacred doesn't announce itself — it waits, quietly, for you to slow down enough to notice.
This dome keeps that quality. A queen bed, emerald velvet, a carved Moroccan headboard, and the kind of stillness that takes a night or two to trust.

The Whole of the Land
Your Room Is the Smallest Part.
Every stay opens the rest of Munaya to you. Fifteen acres, and none of it costs extra.

A cedar barrel sauna under open sky, with an outdoor shower. One sauna session is included with every stay.
Sultana's Shala
An octagonal pavilion open to the mountains. Yours for morning stillness.
Medina Tea House
A geodesic dome lined in Moroccan tile, with a full kitchen and mint tea waiting.
The Glass Studio
Light on three sides. Move, stretch, or simply sit.
The Fire Circle
Eight chairs around a fire pit, ready whenever you'd like one.
The Meadow
Fifteen acres of it. Walk until you stop thinking.
All of it comes with the room.
GETTING HERE
Twenty-five minutes north of Asheville, about fifteen from downtown Marshall. The last stretch is gravel; any car handles it in dry weather.
CHECK-IN
From 4pm, out by 11am. You'll have a note from me before you arrive with everything you need.
THE QUIET
There's no restaurant and no room service. There's a kitchen, a fire, and a great deal of silence. Most people find that's the point.
Anything else you need to know, just ask.
I left feeling completely renewed, grounded, and grateful. Every detail is thoughtfully designed to create a sense of peace and connection. Munaya is truly a sanctuary for the soul.
DIANA · GOOGLE REVIEW
I've not been to a place so freely connected to nature and luxury until Munaya. Mornings journaling on the deck, evenings in the hot tub under the moonlight. Heaven.
LORI · STUART, FL
I booked intending a restful reset. This was absolutely beyond what I imagined — a reset of yourself fully: body, mind, and spirit.
