Dar Maktoub

It’s quite far out, so I’d hire a car or arrange your transfer or taxi in advance. The regular orange taxis in Agadir won’t come this far. The hotel is beautiful and peaceful, with just 12 rooms, so there’s always a place to sit around the large pool. The service and food were very pleasant too.

The garden was one of my favourite things, full of captivating flowers and plants, and the huge pool has lots of seating around it. It’s a small, clean hotel with a private, homely feel, and the food is delicious. The staff made us feel very welcome. Best of all was Carter, their gorgeous 14-year-old dog. He wanders around so sweetly and is incredibly friendly, which really made the place feel like home. We’ll definitely be back. Thanks for a wonderful stay xxx

It’s in a quiet part of town, away from the high-rise beachfront hotels, with a lovely garden and a surprisingly big pool where you can even swim laps. The restaurant is excellent, though it doesn’t serve alcohol during Ramadan. The staff are lovely too. A great fit for golfers or anyone looking for greenery and a quiet atmosphere.

The hospitality from all the staff was exceptional, and Manu deserves a special thanks for being so welcoming and helpful. The room was quiet and felt truly Moroccan, with simple decor, wool rugs, heavy wooden furniture, and an old little stove kept for character. The bed was incredibly comfortable, the best sleep we’ve had on vacation. Outside, there’s a beautiful garden, a pool with sun lounges, and a restaurant terrace serving amazing meals. There’s also a dog and a cat. The dog acts like he owns the place, but really, the cat does.
