Fairmont Taghazout Bay

The sandy-colored low-rise buildings circle a lagoon pool with the Atlantic just beyond, which makes it easy to forget you're at a Fairmont and feel like you've stumbled onto something more personal. This is a full-scale beach resort outside Taghazout, a fishing village an hour from Agadir, with rooms starting at a generous fifty square meters, a spa, a surf club, golf nearby, and a Morimoto outpost for when surfing works up an expensive appetite.
