The hotel is run down and is basically falling a part. We were not provided with water in our room on our first night and had to drink water from the mini bar which was charged. The hotel facilities were limited and also were very old. Additionally there were works happening on the sight so it was noisy.

Memorable Three Night Sojourn

The staff was incredibly helpful at this lovely hotel... lending us a wheelchair when my aunt's knee went out. Breakfast buffet was superior. Their beach club restaurant across the street is quite nice and one of only a handful of eateries on the beach.

Decent hotel could improve by renovation.

Was a good stay overall, but it is not a 5* hotel probably a 3* as needs renovation to make it a higher standard. The staff are all hard working and made the stay pleasant especially the breakfast staff. Breakfast was the same whole week not much change. Would recommend as it’s across the road from the beach.

Beautiful property

Our stay was at the end of a 10 day drive around Morocco. We were so happy to arrive at this beautiful hotel for a couple of days of rest after a long journey around the country. Clean, modern, right on the beach. We couldn’t have asked for anything better. Highly recommend this hotel.

Pictures of rooms are a little deceiving of room sizes, but the rooms are okay but a bit overpriced for what you get and its a "five star" the breakfast is never fully stocked ever, no plates, utensils or food options, the pool is small and very crowded and services are limited, definitely over priced for what you get and definitely doesn't feel like a five star so overall it was an average place, nothing special.
