Pros:

I had a great stay at Dar Makai in Tamraght and would definitely recommend it.

The hotel is in a really handy location, close to the beach, shops, and cafés. The rooms are very clean, modern, and clearly well thought out. I especially appreciated the small details, for example, there were lots of coat hangers in the wardrobe, which I loved because I like to properly unpack and hang my clothes when I arrive somewhere.

The shower was excellent, really warm and powerful. The roof terrace is also a great space to relax, and there are proper areas to store your surfboard and rinse your wetsuit, which is super handy when you’re travelling for surf.

The hosts, Simone and Rashid, were incredibly friendly and helpful and gave me lots of great tips about the area and the surf while I was there. They also prepared a handmade breakfast for me every morning, which was a really nice touch and much appreciated. The cafe attached to the hotel serves great food / drinks and has super friendly staff.

I would happily stay at Dar Makai again.

Einfach top👍
Pros:

Wir hatten einen großartigen Aufenthalt!
Simone und Rashid sind unglaublich freundlich und zuvorkommend. Das Frühstück war sehr lecker und die Lage des Hotels für uns perfekt.
Unser Zimmer war super sauber und mit warmen Decken, was im Dezember wirklich angenehm war.

Das Hotel hat auch eine tolle Dachterrasse und unten im Café gibt es eine schöne Auswahl an Getränken und sogar einen Billardtisch.

Tolle Angebote zum surfen und einen eigenen Fahrradverleih gibt's auch noch.

Wir hatten einen wunderschönen Urlaub und möchten wiederkommen.
Pros:

Das familiäre Hotel ist wunderschön im marokkanischen Stil eingerichtet. Die Zimmer sehr hübsch und funktionell. Die Besitzer sind echte Gastgeber - wir haben uns sehr wohl und aufgehoben gefühlt, denn es gab klasse Tipps für Ausflüge ( plus Organisation), super Surfunterricht, ein leckeres Frühstück - und eine ganz herzliche Familie und Mitarbeiter.

Cons:

Alles perfekt. Hundertprozentige Empfehlung

Aanrader!
Pros:

Simone en Rachid en Rachid zijn perfecte hosts.
Simone denkt ontzettend goed mee met wat je als gast nodig hebt. Surfles, transport, lekkere barbecue, heerlijk ontbijt, ze kunnen het allemaal voor je regelen. Het dakterras is een super gezamenlijke ruimte. We hadden als groep alle 9 kamers bezet, dus het hotel voor ons alleen, top !

Cons:

Het ochtendgebed van de moskee naast de deur is even wennen, evenals de geur buiten, maar daar kan het hotel niets aan doen.

Perfect to end our road trip: great beach and Hotel
Pros:

very nice Hotel, perfect, not only for surfing. Close to a long and clean beach . Great for sunset etc. For us the best place to end our road trip, in particular as Agadir Airport is good to return rental cars and for taking the return flight (small airport, short queue)

This small Hotel is run by the owners, which makes a great difference.

Good neighborhood with nice small restaurants and coffee shops near by.

Wonderful!
Pros:

Owners were very friendly and accommodating, giving us extra advice on travel tips. Good location for the beach. Nice and modern and felt looked after. Breakfast was superb. Would love to come back here again.

Cons:

As it’s a new place, the bathroom door didn’t close properly and the shelves which the towels were kept on were awkward to get down, but very minor details!

Superb
Pros:

We were well looked after at Dar Makai and had a lovely stay. Simone and Rashid were great, communicating before the trip and organising a taxi from the airport for us.They also gave us tips about what to do in the area and further afield.

Breakfasts were tasty and hearty! You will be well fed!

The rooms were uber clean and decorated well, it's really is how you see it in the pictures.  The terrace was the icing on the cake. It's one of the tallest in that spot so gets a lot of sun. Also really convenient for us was the exchange bureau which was a few seconds walk away, which was great when we needed to change more GBP. The hotel is also close to other restaurants, but Dar Makai also has its own.  This really was a gem of a find and we'll certainly be back!

A relaxing stay, close to the beach and to town!
Pros:

Our stay was everything we could have wished for—comfortable, private rooms, a fantastic location, and staff who treat you like family. My partner was unwell during the first half of our trip, so we ended up arriving late to breakfast most days. Despite this, the staff were incredibly kind and accommodating, even preparing a Tea with remedies for colds to help him recover! Their thoughtfulness made such a difference. Any issues were resolved immediately with grace. Plus, the adorable cat was an added delight!

Cons:

Nothing!

Pros:

Me and my partner, we stayed in Dar Makai Hotel and we loved it. Rashid, Simone and all the staff are very friendly people. Rooms were very nice and clean, beds comfy and the breakfast just epic. We also had few surf lessons which we enjoyed a lot and in the end of stay everything ended with great bbq session. I definitely recommend this place and can’t wait to be back. Thank you!

Perfect stay, would book again!
Pros:

We loved our stay. The staff is very kind, welcoming, and made us feel very comfortable. We had a different breakfast every morning. The location is also perfect. Tamraght is kind of on a hill - the hotel is based more on the bottom and closest to the beach, than most hotels. You can also easily catch a cab to Agadir or Taghazout, since it’s right close to the main road.
The level of standard and service is also very western. We didn’t come across this in other hotels in Morocco.
I highly recommend and I would definitely come back here!

Cons:

From other comments you can read that the hotel is near a mosque. Though I’m a light sleeper, I still had the perfect sleep by using with earplugs.
