Agadir, Morocco: Timoulay Hotel

Famous for its protected golden-sand bay, Agadir is Morocco's top beach destination. Relaxing on Agadir's five-and-a-half-mile long crescent-shaped beach is the most popular activity in town, but you can also tour the ruins of a 16th-century casbah (fortress), which has great views out to the Atlantic Ocean. The number-one rated Agadir hotel on TripAdvisor (our sister site), Timoulay Hotel is elegant, modern, and affordable. Sale rates start around $104 per night.
