AKAN is the vision of Jalil Benabbés-Taarji, a pioneer of Moroccan hospitality — deeply rooted in tradition yet boldly contemporary — and Youssef Benabbés-Taarji, a new-generation voice bridging innovation with family legacy. To bring this vision to life, they have entrusted leadership to Eros Abrile, appointed Chief Operating Officer of AKAN.
With over twenty-five years of experience and a distinguished international career, Eros Abrile, Chief Operating Officer, has contributed to the success of renowned hospitality establishments, marrying operational excellence with a keen eye for detail.
By his side are two exceptional talents, Wafa Laksiri, Properties Marketing & Guests Experience Director, and Soraya Sandra El Mouch, Brand Marketing Director.
"It’s not about aligning properties, but about weaving a story — the story of a living, diverse, and emotionally resonant Morocco. A story of hospitality passed down through generations. AKAN is a collection where every home has its own soul. My role is to guide this diversity with sharpness and fluidity, ensuring that the harmony of each place fully elevates the unique experience offered to our guests.”
