PEACEFUL OCEANFRONT
25 miles south of Agadir, this peaceful oceanfront Kasbah feels far removed from the bustle of the city, making it the ideal place to unwind amidst plenty of sun, sea and sand.
Perched atop low cliffs, Ksar Massa overlooks a long and deserted sandy beach on the edge of the small village of Sidi R’bat. The 12 rooms are housed in low terracotta buildings and are traditionally furnished with comfortable seating areas and dreamy sea views. The property also has some more contemporary suites and two bungalows for added privacy. Massages are available in the hammam and an 18-metre seawater pool overlooks the beach. The nearby Massa Nature Reserve provides outstanding birdwatching, including sightings of the endangered Bald Ibis.
Breakfast can be enjoyed on one of the many terraces looking out to sea, whilst the hotel’s two restaurants serve up delicious Moroccan cuisine for lunch and dinner. After, you can sit back in front of a crackling fire with a drink in your hand, in the tower-top bar open to the sounds of the ocean on three sides, and count the stars.

We had a wonderful safari experience in South Luangwa, Zambia this September. Despite a few unexpected setbacks behind the scenes, everything ran seamlessly for us. Our driver and guide were outstanding, and the standard of accommodation was truly first class.
