Fairmont Taghazout Bay

Beautiful resort, which was very comfortable and never felt busy. Service was very good. Shout out to Houcine who was delightful. Areas for improvement: 1. Water should be complimentary in the room, I was very surprised to see a price list for bottled water which I did not expect. 2. The hotel umbrellas do not have fasteners so as soon as it gets windy (and this is common in Agadir), the response from the staff is to put down the umbrellas which leaves very few places for shade. If other hotels can secure umbrellas when they’re open then surely the fairmont can invest in this! 3. Despite having three restaurants, there is nowhere serving Moroccan dishes, which is a real oversight. We had to leave the hotel to have tagine, for example. 4. The prices charged for food by the pool far exceeded the quality - a club sandwich was 270 dirhams and was very average, and it should be nicely presented and taste amazing for that price! 5. Service was attentive but a la carte dishes at breakfast were slow every day (20min wait for eggs for example).

Fantastic new yoga and wellness program in the spa. The Sunday night sunset yoga 🧘 with Stephy and breath work with Sam were my favourite sessions. The Ariel yoga was also fun and a great workout. I also had a 121 bio hacking session with Sam which was great to see what was going on internally and how I could improve my life and health from breathing better. Fairmont is the best hotel I have experienced in Moroccan in every way. The staff are exceptional. Huge thanks to the spa reception staff, especially Yassine, a lovely warm welcome every morning. Highly recommended.

We found the hotel to be welcoming and extremely comfortable. We had a sea view room which was in a great position, near all the amenities but also very quiet. The restaurants were all terrific, service was very good and the food was excellent. Our only complaint was the the room service (cleaning) was poor but once we asked for the room to be cleaned early the hotel was very obliging. unfortunately the larger pool was not heated and too cold for us(!) but the children's pool was lovely and warm. Pool staff were delightful - in fact all the staff everywhere were charming. The hotel arranged for a car to take us into Agadir which made the evening really enjoyable. All in all, the hotel is a delight.

Beautiful hotel with very attractive grounds over looking the sea. I loved the planting in the gardens. We had a large sea view room with a king bed and a huge balcony in the block nearest all the amenities. We were first put in a room furthest from everything, overlooking the sea, but with a building site and a road to the side which we could see. We complained and we were moved but it was a disappointing arrival. We would also have expected a cold drink on arrival at the hotel, water, after a long day travelling. However the manager of the Italian restaurant, Ibrahim, looked after us very well that evening, he helped us to relax and the food was delicious. We also loved the Japanese restaurant. The tiramisu in Beef and Reef was wonderful. Breakfasts were excellent with a huge choice, eggs cooked any way you would like. Having a peaceful adults only pool was lovely, one could stay there all day reading and enjoying a snack. My biggest criticism of the swimming pools (there are 3) is that there are no hand rails, just ladders to get in and out of the pool. There are gentle steps going into the pool but I have balance issues so really need to hold onto something to get in and out of the pool. Other guests kindly helped me. So if you have weak legs this hotel isn’t ideal. It would be very easy to have one rail in the adult only pool by the steps. We found the concierge very helpful, all the staff were charming with the exception of the Tapas bar, we were told the restaurant was full when it was clearly empty! Would go again if hand rails into the pool were installed.

Absolutely amazing place. Everything was perfect. We stayed in one of the villas & possibly one of the most luxurious places we’ve ever stayed. Every single member of staff went above & beyond but a special Thankyou must go to Yassine, Khawla & Oussama. They are a credit to the hotel.
