With four swimming pools and a beach on its doorstep, the Tikida Dunas is a water baby’s paradise.
The Riu Tikida Dunas is all about the swimming pool – or, should we say, swimming pools. There are four in total, and they’re absolutely huge. The three outdoor ones come with all the added extras you can think of, like water polo nets, wooden bridges and even palm-dotted islands. And when you fancy a spot of sunbathing, you can pick between the terraces and gardens that snake their way between the pools. Inside, meanwhile, you’ll find yet another waterhole. It’s part of the hotel’s spa, which also offers up massages and a hammam.

Elsewhere, there’s plenty to keep you busy. If sports are your thing, try your hand at a game of tennis, football or basketball. The hotel also puts on more unusual activities like silk and T-shirt painting classes.

When it comes to dining, you’re spoilt for choice. The main restaurant serves up big buffets for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Expect home-from-home favourites, on-the-spot cooking stations and local specialities. Or head to the Moroccan or grill eateries on alternating days where you can tuck into succulent lamb or the catch of the day.

The bedrooms, meanwhile, are spacious and modern. Décor-wise, yellow ceilings and blue furnishings give each one a beach-like feel. Air-conditioning and satellite TVs provide the supporting cast.

Lastly, the setting of the Tikida Dunas is worthy of a mention. Not only does the hotel sit on its own stretch of hourglass-fine sand, but it’s just footsteps from shops, restaurants and bars, too. And the bright lights of Agadir are just a ten-minute walk away.

Your guide to Agadir, Morocco - Agadir

"Pack your sunhat and shades, cos life’s a beach in sun-soaked Agadir."

Over half a century ago the old town of Agadir was totally flattened by one of the most devastating earthquakes ever to hit the Moroccan coastline. But instead of rebuilding the port in the image of itself, the authorities decided on a different approach. They started from scratch with new plans for a new kind of town. So the Agadir that welcomes you today is a resort with wide, open streets. Avenues which encourage slow walks in the late evening sunshine. There are palm trees, gardens and rows of elegantly simple houses with cool, white-washed walls. And a line of swish hotels stand overlooking one of the country’s most favoured beaches. That beach is perhaps the main reason to visit Agadir. It’s truly excellent; wide and long with soft sand. Make sure you take a high factor protective lotion; you will change colour quickly here, without realising the true strength of the sun’s rays. Agadir is also a great hub. It’s easy to fly into and brilliantly placed for excursions to the fabulous old, walled city of Taroudannt, the aptly named Paradise Valley and the unmissable Massa Lagoon. Perfect for when you feel like mixing a little sight-seeing with your sand-time.

Stayed at Rui Tikida Dunas, Agadir. Good hotel. Great food and really friendly staff.Agadir itself does not have much by the way of culture (you could go out on excursions to find the real Morocco) but for a winter break it was just the job. more on this review
