All-Inclusive Hotels in Morocco: How to Choose
Sun, pool, meals and drinks included: all-inclusive appeals for a holiday without counting. In Morocco, it is concentrated in a few specific destinations, and what the package covers varies a lot from one hotel to another. Here is where to go, depending on the season and your profile, and what to check before booking.
For an all-inclusive hotel in Morocco, the number one destination is Agadir: the largest choice of beachfront clubs and hotels in the country, a mild climate almost all year and an airport well served from Europe. Marrakech offers all-inclusive resorts in the Palmeraie and along the Atlas roads, ideal for combining the pool with sightseeing. Taghazout Bay, north of Agadir, brings together recent resorts with golf and surfing. On the Mediterranean, Saidia and Tamuda Bay near Tetouan work mostly in summer. Before booking, check what the package really includes (alcoholic drinks, snacks, à la carte restaurants), the actual distance to the beach and whether there is a kids' club or an adults-only area. Comparing the same week across several sites often gets you a better rate and free cancellation.

Agadir: the Safe Bet
Agadir is Morocco's big beach resort: a bay several kilometres long, a lively promenade and the country's highest concentration of all-inclusive clubs and hotels. Winters stay mild, making it a winter-sun destination too. Seafront properties open straight onto the beach; cheaper ones are a few minutes' walk away.

Marrakech: Pool and Medina
In Marrakech, all-inclusive resorts are mainly in the Palmeraie and along the Ourika and Amizmiz roads. You get large gardens and pools, with the medina a shuttle or taxi ride away. In summer the heat is intense: the pool becomes essential. See where to stay in Marrakech.

The Mediterranean: Saidia and Tamuda Bay
In the north-east, Saidia is a beach resort with a very long stretch of fine sand, busy mostly in summer. Near Tetouan, Tamuda Bay lines up hotels and residences along a sea warmer than the Atlantic. Outside July and August, the atmosphere is much quieter. See the most beautiful beaches in Morocco.

How to Choose Well
- Beachfront or not: in descriptions, "close to the beach" can mean crossing a road. Check the map.
- Adults-only or family: some hotels are adults-only, others have slides and a kids' club.
- Actual package: compare all-inclusive and half board; in a city, half board leaves room for local restaurants.
- Recent reviews: favour comments from the last few months on cleanliness and food.
- Free cancellation: book a cancellable rate to keep the freedom to change.
