The Club Valtur is distinguished by its Sporting Club where you can partake in various sporting activities. The animation team is friendly. Its "all inclusive" service is ideal for those who want to be careful with their budget.

The club is located nearly 2 miles from the centre of Agadir. To reach the hotel from the airport (located 15 miles away) takes 30 minutes.
Looking out onto the gardens, the rooms are welcoming and have a small balcony . Very clean, each room has a bathroom with a bath tub. They are equipped with satellite TV, adjustable air-conditioning, a minibar and direct telephone line. They do not have air-conditioning.
Built in 1990, the Club Valtur is a hotel with Moorish architecture occupying a park of 9 acres. It has a total of 370 rooms and 4 suites, housed in 2-storey buildings. In addition to the gardens, it has 14 acres reserved for the Sporting Club. Located 10 minutes from the hotel, this is where you can participate in a variety of activities. Life here is lived in a Mediterranean style. The hotel, owned by Italians, has a dynamic team of entertainers. The area around the swimming pool is more peaceful, which is largely covered with deck chairs.
Meals are served mainly buffet style and offer a good choice of Moroccan dishes and Italian specialties. An intriguing selection of fish dishes are also available. The "all inclusive" service entitles you to unlimited drinks (water, soda, wine and beer). The club also has a Moroccan restaurant serving Moroccan specialties and there is a grill restaurant in the Sporting Club.
The beach is 1312 ft from the club. It has a bar and all the facilities necessary for a good sunbathing session: deck chairs, mattresses and umbrellas. The hotel club does not offer water sports. The water is rather rough due to the waves of the Atlantic ocean.
The Valtur club is designed to accommodate both families and young people, sports fans as well as those looking for relaxation. Beware, however, that the activities are mostly at the Sporting Club, located 10 minutes from the hotel (shuttle service). Here, you can swim, play tennis, do gymnastics, play golf, go horseback riding, play tennis, petanque football... Children from 5 to 16 years are taken care of at the mini-club and the junior club.

Nous y sommes allés du 3 au 10 juin inclus avec un groupe d'amis. Nos ressentis sont unanimes et nous pensons que nous n'y retournerons pas. L'accueil est déplorable, le service restauration également. Dangerosité de la piscine principale à cause d'une margelle très glissante qui serait interdite en France. La restauration est déplorable sauf pour les petits - déjeuners. Nourriture sans aucune variété, très répétitive. Un conseil: FUYEZ cet Hôtel dans qu'il existera ces inconvénients.
Chambres spacieuses bien équipées.Un bémol la poire de douche qui est fixe. Résultat, impossible de se laver le dos sans se mouiller les cheveux.
Service déplorable, nourriture en dessous du niveau auquel on pourrait s'attendre dans un 4 étoiles, piscine principale dangereuse ( margelle très glissante).
The Coralia Club La Kasbah, with an all inclusive service, will seduce you with its charm and excellent sports facilities. On one floor, the hotel stretches in a beautiful, 9 acre park planted with tropical trees and bougainvillea. It is not located on the seafront but its animation team is very dynamic.
Located on the seafront, the Riu Tikida Beach Golf & Spa is a hotel offering "all inclusive" service of international standard and in a simple and relaxed atmosphere. It is one of the nicest hotels in Agadir.
The Tivoli is good for guests seeking tranquillity. It allows you to combine relaxation with some sports activities such as tennis. The entertainment is minimal, but you don't come here for that. The welcome, however, is very warm.
Le Framissima Les Dunes d'Or is a friendly hotel offering "all inclusive" service and is suitable for family holidays. Its major advantage? It is located on the seafront. Many sports are provided under the leadership of a dynamic animation team. The restaurant service is very diverse.
Aside from the fact that this hotel is well located in terms of the beach and the town centre and that its grounds are kept pleasant, it is pretty much impossible to be positive about the Almohades. The rooms are depressing, there seems never to be a moment's peace and quite, the service leaves a lot to be desired and the food is, to put it bluntly, terrible. Around two thirds of the rooms are set aside for clients of a French tour operator and from the way they behave you would think they had never been on holiday before. What's more, the animation here is almost exclusively in French so not really suitable for British guests. So, unless you really have no other option and you simply want to lie on the beach all day every day, we suggest you look elsewhere.
A small, very charming and pleasant hotel. It is ideal for those who want to get away from large tourist complexes. It is also good for both families and couples. A hotel where it is good to rest in a relaxed atmosphere.
The Pueblo Tamlelt is the ideal place to play sports, enjoy entertainment and relaxation. Everything is at hand. It is ideal for family stay.
Another of the front row hotels, the Atlas is a reasonable option for couples or groups of friends. Although the huge, impersonal lobby and main building are pretty depressing, the rooms are a little better and the public spaces are pleasant enough. While the food here is not one of the hotel's strong points, bizarrely its wellness centre is. There is minimal animation for adults during the day and a small kids club just in case there are children around. Not the most stylish or inspiring of hotels, but a good value for the location.
This is by far and away the best hotel in Agadir. It is the only world class property in the resort and it beats every other hotel hands down in pretty much every way, from the design to the service and from the dining to the wellness facilities. Its beachfront location, away from the tacky tourist centre of Agadir, makes it the only place to consider for a truly relaxing luxury holiday. One could reproach the hotel for the size of its standard rooms, but they are immaculately appointed and both comfortable and functional. Also perfect are the hotel's grounds and public spaces which means that you probably will not have the remotest desire t to leave this heavenly complex. Although children are welcome at the Sofitel Agadir Thalassa Sea and Spa, the property is more suited for couples.
The only charming hotel in the Agadir seaside resort. Compared to most of the city's club hotels, the Riad Villa Blanche is in a category all its own. Here, calm, tranquillity and refinement are the keywords. A place to relax in a cosy atmosphere, far from the hustle and bustle of Agadir.
The older of the two Sofitels in Agadir, the Royalbay is, together with its sister hotel, head and shoulders above all other hotels in the resort in pretty well every aspect. With the exception of the newer of the pair of French properties, the Royalbay's architecture and design is unparalleled as is the standard of the service, food and facilities. The guestrooms are spacious and extremely well appointed, the public spaces are impeccably maintained and you will not find a smarter kids club anywhere. As well as enjoying a beachfront location the hotel also boasts a quiet spot along the bay, away from the chaos of the tourist centre. The one thing we were surprised about is the lack of privacy on the terraces and balconies of the rooms, especially the most expensive.
Here you are entering one of the most beautiful hotels in Agadir, which is set apart by its location: far from the beach, outside Agadir, but on a 36-hole golf course and with a superb spa. The surroundings here exude peace and luxury. Opened in February 2007, the Riad combines Moroccan and contemporary styles. It's a shame the restaurant isn't up to the same standard.
There is no doubt that the Atlantic Palace is one of only a handful of hotels in Agadir to be truly of an international standard. Of an impressive scale, the hotel boasts smart, spacious rooms and suites, well kept and pleasant public spaces, a wellness centre worthy of the name and a good choice of quality eating concessions. The décor and design is head and shoulders above most other properties as is the staff and of course the location, being situated just across the road from the beachfront. Whether travelling as a couple, family or group of friends, if it is quality you are after then few places can top the Atlantic Palace - it should definitely be in your short list.
Located on the seafront, the Riu Tikida Beach Golf & Spa is a hotel offering "all inclusive" service of international standard and in a simple and relaxed atmosphere. It is one of the nicest hotels in Agadir.
Right on the waterfront, the Tikida Dunas is a beautiful, new and very well maintained hotel, which offers many activities. Situated in a 12-acre park, almost all of the buildings face the Atlantic Ocean. Ideal for families and all those looking for tranquillity.
Without a doubt the best of the second row of hotels in Agadir, the Timoulay is a very pleasant hotel indeed, suitable for couples, small families or even groups of friends looking for value for money but not necessarily worried about being right on the beach. The rooms are very spacious and well appointed, the décor is in good taste, the food is reasonable, the staff personable and the spa, unlike so many of its neighbours', actually resembles a spa. The hotel is also fairly quiet and intimate and is a place that one may well choose to relax in rather than head out to the beach or the town. The Timoulay certainly gets our seal of approval!
