11 Reviews of Property 83796 in Agadir, Morocco

Enjoyed every minute of our holiday-the appartment was absolutley great!
Kitchen and other facilities were spotless and had all listed items.
Rosalind and Mohammed are such nice people and made our stay extra special.

I can recommend this place a 100%, my advise is to rent a car (Mohammeds Carrental -Taghazout Surf Cars) and drive to Paradise Valley- absoloutley breathtaking!
For Surfboardrental ask Mohammed too- he can get you great deals!

Foodwise- you should try the restaurants L´auberge, Original Food and the Cafe next to it (great grilled fish), oh and ask Mohammed to give you a Tagine Cookinglesson- best dish we had all week :-)

If you find time- drive to Marrakesh!

Had a great time property needs a small make over as it seemed a bit tired ,Mohamed who looks after the property was the most helpful you could ever wish to find nothing was ever to much for him to do for you the customer service was first class. I would recommend this property to a friend or relative

We booked our holliday in Taghazout after good references from friends who stayed at the same place. The appartement and its seaview was what it promised. The location is close to any restaurant, shop and beach. The manager made sure we got a rental car to take us around a bit further to surfbeaches around.

The property was very well kept, and had most facility;s for cooking. Although we only used it for breakfast: u cant beat a 25 dirham tangine at restaurant taghazout (a must do).

Taghazout is a chilled out, small, surf loving village. Go there to (learn) to surf, read books and tan.

We had a wonderful and relaxing holiday. Eventhough to surf wasn't much around this time a year, we spent a great amount of time on the beach and the appartement is comfy the hang about.

My family and I very much enjoyed our holiday staying at this apartment.

The apartment was clean, tidy, and well kept. The people of Taghazout are kind, friendly and very accommodating. Banana beach nearby is everything one could want for Sun Sea Sand and Surf. In particular we found the apartments housekeeper, “Mohammed”, extremely helpful in all things, his input into our stay was always above the call of duty, I would visit again just for the pleasure of meeting him once more.

It is said that a car is recommended for a stay at this apartment. Our stay was for one week without a car, which was fine, but upon reflection I would agree that transport would be necessary to enhance one’s stay and enjoy the area to a fuller extent.

The only negative I can say is there is a bit of a litter problem here and there, but this is a small sadness, most likely as a result of many people visiting a small town still developing a strategy on how to deal with our touristy type of untidiness.

Never the less, my family and I will remember our stay at this apartment with a fond reflective smile, and would happily recommend this on to friends and family as a nicely equipped base from which one can explore Morocco.

We stayed in Taghazout in October ’09 and had one of the best holidays ever. This was for a variety of reasons: the wonderful beach, which was only 2 minutes walk from the apartment, the apartment itself – perfect for two adults and two children – the food (especially Moroccan-style scrambled eggs, barbecued lamb with flat bread and mint tea), the once-in-a-lifetime journey to a Berber village in the Atlas mountains, where the locals’ hospitality was second to none, the sights, the smells, the flavours… We’ll definitely be returning in 2010 and I’d recommend Taghazout wholeheartedly and without reservation to anyone.

Don't go to Taghazout if you like a flashy lifestyle. Do go if you want to stay in a working fishing village with friendly people and a great atmosphere. We (2 couples) stayed in Shems, and we all loved it: the apartment was comfortable and attractive, and sufficiently equipped for easy self-catering. There appeared to be plenty of eating options in Taghazout, but we only had three days (and 3 of us are veggies). The USP has to be the terrace and the fantastic views of the Atlantic and the beach ... right now we are missing our morning teas and coffees outside in the sun (7-10 December was our stay). We swam (great waves and plenty of surfers) on the local beach, but within walking distance was a brilliant beach (Panorama Beach) where we walked for hours - also had camel ride. Car pretty essential if you want to explore at all - we went to Taroudant (known as 'Little Marrakech') and spent a great couple of hours in the souk. We also drove up to the Kasbah for great views of Agadir. Our haggling/negotiating skills were somewhat lacking, but this is a cultural adjustment that we hope to rectify in a future visit!
Yes, we would all happily recommend this apartment and area. Ros, the owner, was welcoming and helpful (and on-hand in a higher apartment). Mohamed, the manager, was also an excellent source of advice and help ... and close by, running a shop a few metres from the apartment. NB Taghazout is a 'dry' town, so any alcohol needs to be bought beforehand (Mohamed took us to Metro, Agadir). There are plenty of small local shops selling excellent bread, daily fresh milk and loads of vegetables and fruit. Oh, and did I mention the wonderful sunsets ....?

Shems apartment is light and airy with great views over the beach and sea. There is a small balcony where you can sunbathe and relax. The apartment is attractively furnished with Moroccan pottery, lanterns and wall hangingss which give it an authentic feel. Ros, the owner, is extremely friendly and welcoming, and we felt that with her help, and that of her friend, Mohammed, that we saw aspects of Morocco that might easily escape the average tourist.
Taghazout is a small, scruffy town with lots of restaurants and cheap shops. If you prefer a bit more luxury and upmarket dining out, Agadir is a good option and is about 20km away. It also has a wonderful sandy beach that seems to stretch for miles.
We didn't hire a car as we didn't fancy the challenges of driving in Agadir but taxis are cheap. However, it would be well worthwhile hiring a car so that you can do more exploring than we managed.
If possible, avoid August, as it was extremely hot when we were there - 50+c in Marrakech and the Atlas Mountains. Not conducive to a lot of sightseeing!
