I absolutely loved the tranquility of this resort as well as the gorgeous swimming pool area. Although my husband and I only stayed one night, I can well imagine that this resort would offer relaxation and excellent quality pool time - as well as being within close proximity to golf courses. The food is very good so staying here for dinner was very pleasant. My only, very minor complaint is that #4 had a bit of an unpleasant smell. This would not normally bother me as I could easily remedy it by opening up the window. On that particular evening, the weather was cool so I kept the window closed. I certainly would consider going back to Dar Maktoub in the future.

Location was not what was expected. Further from town than expected. Property itself is lovely.

The premises and garden are amazing: lots of character and very homely. The opposite of a big, sterile resort. The service is great and employees are friendly. Rooms are clean but could have less carpets. The local area seems a bit dead but there is parking for a rental car or the hotel can organise a shuttle. Overall a great stay and if we were to return to Agadir we would choose Dar Maktoub again!! FYI - wifi very slow (as in the rest of Morocco)

Nice hotel, a bit far from downtown. Charming staff, especially Alhoucine. Very nice, outgoing and kind host.

We had a great time at Dar Maktoub, the place is amazing, set in lush mature gardens located far enough away from the main area of Agadir but still accessible by taxi. We had a day trip to Marrakech which took us through the Atlas mountains. The drive was long but worth it to get a taste of the shopping delights of the souks. As we only had a short stay we could only do one day there but I would definitely stay longer in Marrakech next time. The hotel can book day trips for you with great drivers and guides. I booked myself and my mum in for a relaxing Christmas break and most of the time we had the hotel and pool to ourselves. This was great but then the service was not always available when needed for drinks etc. I booked Dar Maktoub for the great location and the amazing space it provides but also because they had advertised the fact they could cater for vegetarians if notice was given. I informed them prior to our visit that both myself and my mum were vegetarians and would like to eat at the hotel restaurant. Whilst the food was acceptable they did struggle to provide more than three choices over the five days we ate at the restaurant so we made other arrangements to eat in Agadir itself. Despite this I would still definitely recommend Dar Maktoub but if you do have dietary needs then plan ahead and maybe make other arrangements to eat in Agadir.

Beautifully decorated hotel and bedroom. Manu, the italian receptionalist, was first class and gives one a wonderful welcome.

This hotel has many good points but also a few not so good. If you play golf, you will be delighted as there are 3 courses in walking distance. If you don't play golf, you find yourself stuck in the middle of nowhere, 6 miles from Agadir, along a smelly river and nothing to eat of any quality for miles. The hotel restaurant is excellent but not cheap by Moroccan standards and you need to book your meal in advance, so are committed to a return to the hotel by 7 pm. This is not always convenient. The staff are excellent and friendly. The room allocated at first was near the roadside wall, hence noisy as there is no sound insulation of any kind. The room I changed to was much quieter. The hotel has a beautiful garden. The entire layout is charming and has style. Although the hotel itself is of a high standard, I would not book this again due to its distant location from anything but golf courses. It is not suitable for general tourism without a car.

We made a last minute booking and were warmly welcomed to this secluded "Dar" near Agadir and the Souss-Massa National Park. Beautiful landscaping, pool, and friendly staff. Simple lunch menu and delicious tagines for dinner. Serves wine, beer and other spirits...not always easy to find in Morocco. A wonderful spot if you have little agenda but to enjoy your surroundings and the birds...or if you're a golfer.
