On the Bay of Palms in Agadir, the Sofitel Agadir Royal Bay Resort presents itself on the Accor website as a five-star beachfront resort with an architecture inspired by Moroccan riads. It offers suites, villas with a private pool and a spa. This article sums up what the hotel states, describes what its gallery photos show and helps you plan a stay without overpromising.
A resort inspired by riads
According to the official website, the hotel is on the beachfront and displays five stars. It describes rooms with a sea view, suites with large panoramic terraces and five villas with a private heated pool, in an Executive version with two bedrooms or a Royal version with three bedrooms. The Deluxe rooms offer a king-size bed or two twin beds, with a view of the pool or of the pool and the ocean, and a balcony or terrace for some of them. The property is recent: the website states that its Asian restaurant, The Squid, will open soon.
One gallery photo shows a view of the pool surrounded by palm trees, with the sea on the horizon.
Another photo shows a bright room with a large bed, an armchair, a sofa and a bay opening onto a terrace with a sun lounger.
The Sofitel spa
The hotel presents a spa and a fitness centre at garden level, with traditional Moroccan treatment rituals and a selection of Asian-inspired treatments. It also mentions an outdoor pool surrounded by gardens. Opening hours and the treatment menu do not appear on the page we read.
One gallery photo shows a hammam with walls and benches of grey marble, with copper bowls and buckets.
Restaurants
As the hotel is recent, part of its offer has not opened yet: we therefore stick to the places described, without giving a total. Zaytoune serves a buffet all day, with a terrace lined with olive trees. La Voile Blanche serves Mediterranean cuisine with a view of the Atlantic. The Soul Restaurant is also mentioned. Opening times appear on the page of each venue: check them before you book.
One gallery photo shows an inner courtyard with wooden arches, a turquoise basin and a lantern placed at its edge.
