Wherever your destination may be whether at the coast, the desert, the mountains or the medinas a regional guide will help you to make the right decision where you should have a rest and enjoy the traditional Moroccan hospitality.
Fes & Marrakech: Riads History Filled
At such old cities as Fes and Marrakech, you will discover exquisitely refurbished riads that are typical dwellings developed around tranquil courtyards. These old buildings are usually having hand-carved wood, zellige tiles, and terraces on their roofs. You can find Riads; these are locally owned and small, providing you customized services, homely Moroccan cuisine, and the overall effect of going back in time.
There are the camps of Merzouga & Zagora and Kasbahs.
Thinking of spending time in the desert? You can pitch a tent under the stars in the Berber tent camp in Merzouga or in the very remote kasbah-style lodgings in Zagora. A lot of desert camps have the traditional style, but with the comfort of the modern world: there are individual bathrooms, electricity, even Wi-Fi in luxurious camps. Make sure you do not pass the opportunity to open your eyes to a sunrise on the dunes.
High Atlas: Coarse lodges and Eco guesthouses
The High Atlas Mountains will suit those who want to find peace, to hike, and to feel the atmosphere of Amazigh (Berber) culture. Rooms here are sometimes constructed using local material- stone, clay, and wood and running through solar energy. You will get warm welcome, be invited to drink mint tea and be fed on generous tagines that have been prepared by locals.
Essaouira & Agadir: Surf Hostels and Beach Hotels
To be more relaxed, there are numerous coastal places to stay in Essaouira and Agadir, such as fancy spa-hotels and, in contrast, cheap surf hostels. These coastal cities will serve the best to the tourists who need to relax at the coast, taste windsurfing or Moroccan seafood.
Last Tip: Select Your Experience
There is the world beyond the hotel stars when you plan your trip to Morocco. Question to yourself: Do I need secluded privacy or urban vibrancy? What do I desire–tradition, or comfort?–or comfort and tradition?
