Mazagan Beach Resort – Best Travel Tip in Morocco

To describe MBR as spectacular, elegant, and luxurious is an understatement. It is a delight to all the senses—sight, sound, scent, touch, and taste. To stand before the main structure, the Grand Riad (or Grand Hotel) is an experience fit for kings or Caliphs. It comes into view after the last turn of a winding road through a gorgeously landscaped hillside when one glances up to see its ochre walls and green-tiled roof.

Exquisite fountains dot the courtyard and grounds among areas of lush grass and stone paths.  Overlooking the lagoon, golf course, and spa and plunging down to the sea from terraces, one will get a 180-degree view over the Atlantic Ocean that will take your breath away.

Entering the Grand Riad, one comes upon the astonishingly ornate atrium graced with a huge goblet-like fountain. From there one can reach eleven bars and restaurants, the large thousand-person capacity ballroom, upscale retail shops, the spa, the “Sanctuary” Night Club, one of the largest conference centers in the region, the only casino within 200 km., and the 18-hole golf course designed by Gary Player. 

MBR’s restaurants offer a taste-treat sensation featuring cuisines from every part of the world including Europe, Asia, South America, and of course North Africa. Down a set of stairs from the atrium one comes to the central courtyard with a very large pool surrounded by 150 or so loungers.

From the central atrium one can follow two corridors through small internal gardens that lead to the hotel’s rooms. The décor features 150 types of Moroccan mosaics, along with hundreds of Morocan lamps and fresh flowers growing out of the wall lattices.
