    ABOUT THE HOTEL

    • Official Rating

    The ribbon was cut on this place in 2019, and it's loaded up its spot by the beach with seven pools, seven bars and a bunch of classy restaurants.

    The Riu Palace Tikida Taghazout's pool scene packs a serious punch. There are seven to pick from, including tetris-style numbers outdoors that have sunken sunlounging patios built in.

    If beach tanning's more your bag, you'll only be a short saunter from the shallows of the Atlantic Ocean. Plus, the reserved stretch of sand boasts a sea-view restaurant where you can munch on meals.

    While you're away, you'll have access to our 24-hour digital service, with a virtual rep.

    RIU TIKIDA PALACE TAGHAZOUT Our second visit proved to be just as excellent as we had expected. We were upgraded to a sea view in room 1234. Planting is now almost complete and all facilities were open. A lot of work has been done to the beach area which remains open to the public except for a fenced off area at the top of the beach. We were remembered by lots of the staff from our first visit as we remembered lots of our old friends. Reception staff are superb and are willing to try and comply with requests for most things in order to make your holiday special. The animation team worked hard to keep guests entertained in the pool area, the superb gym and in the theatre during the evening. Food was if possible better than our first visit, with speciality restaurants ironing out a few of the little problems previously experienced .However each sitting is still limited to half the restaurants capacity, which will be problematic once all the accommodation is full. Despite the current shutdown due to the Coronavirus pandemic, this will eventually happen. It was a sad experience to watch people leaving and staff being laid off, we were on the last flight out to Gatwick, which was diverted to Stansted due to Gatwick closing at midnight. The flight to Manchester was the last out and left just before the Agadir midnight deadline. Inshallah, my wife and I will return as soon as this is over.
    'Taghazout' without the Hippies.
    01 Apr , 2020 Alex S, 186233
    We had gone into our local Riu agents, in November 2019, intending to book a winter-break 'somewhere', but, upon being told that this Hotel was newly opened, and, to encourage business the prices were considerably reduced, it wasn't a difficult decision to make! We weren't, and neither will be anybody else, disappointed. A great location, fascinating arrangement of Bars (6 in all, one open 24 hrs) and Dining Rooms, many varied outdoor seating places, fall out of the back gate and you're on the Beach, and, only a 30 minute stroll to the one time Hippie resort of Taghazout. As Riu 'Class' members, we had a ground-floor suite, with a view to the beach, and a mere 50 metre stroll to a Pool Bar. There are several pools, one of which is heated, and, each day there is a 'fun session' were the entertainment staff get you dancing, singing and exercising. Oh, and swimming pool towels were available. The range and choice of food on the menu was impressive. The waiting-on Staff were always ready to advise and help. There were 3 Speciality Restaurants - Gourmet, Moroccan, Steakhouse - for which booking was required, but, we didn't get around to going. It was fun to meet up with some staff who we had known, last year, at the Riu Tikida Dunas, Agadir. We had a great week, and could well be visiting again next year!
    Best pre-Corona break we could have wished for

    We arrived on 9 March. This hotel is absolutely stunning. The staff are all very friendly and helpful. There is a large selection of food to suit all tastes at breakfast, lunch and dinner. The rooms are the best I have seen in the many Riu hotels I have stayed in. The Jungle Bar has to be seen to be believed, with loads of seating and the Espresso Martinis made by Adel Wahd are to die for. The poo areas are very spacious with plenty of sunbeds, the adult infinity pool is nice and quiet. Taghazout is a short stroll away and is a lovely little fishing village. After our walk we sat outside Rasta Pasta for a refreshing drink watching the fishing boats coming in and being lifted out of the sea by a tractor which brought them up the beach. The vibe was superb, I felt as if I was back in the 1960's. I joked to my husband that if Jimi Hendrix had walked down the beach arm in arm with Keith Richard I would not have been surprised. We walked across the beach across some rocks and up some steps to a great little restaurant where we lunched on savoury prawn crepes which were delicious. The tide came in and the sea broke on the rocks below us, it was a great experience. We then had a walk through the village, which is very quaint, we found a mimimarket where my husband bought some diet cokes for our Jack Daniels. The village felt very safe. We would have come back again but unfortunately everything was Coronaclosed before we could do so. We have been to the Riu Palace at Agadir twice before but much prefer this place as the village is a much nicer place to visit that Agadir which is a very large town. A trip to Essaouira, which is a place we love, was our only other trip out before close down. We had a great lunch after a walk round the outdoor fish market is a must. So many fish, most of which we could not name. The town was closing down at 6:00pm after we left. After the country closed down the Riu Palace Taghazout staff bent over backward to make us feel as if we were still on holiday. Their friendliness and sense of humour lifted our spirits even when we thought we would never be getting back to the UK. We will certainly be back to this hotel, thank you to everyone who works there for making our holiday so special. When we finally were on our way to the airport our bus sang an impromptu version of 'We'll meet again'. I sure hope we do so! Thank you Riu Palace Taghazout!!!!!
    Great Hotel
    26 Mar , 2020 Sparis1980, 186402
    What a well presented hotel, you can tell it's new 9n the scene, great pool area, with private pods to lounge in including double mattresses and big cushions. Quite a few couples with babies found them handy as they had roofs to keep shaded area. Unfortunately we visited during the outbreak and had the worry of are we getting home which did pput a damper on things a little. However the hotel is a really nice place to be and the staff and entertainment team did their jobs well. Thumbs up from me, we would visit again
    Sad end to a fantastic holiday
    24 Mar , 2020 Steve C, 1547037
    Stayed at this wonderful hotel betwee 9th and 19th March. The hotel, rooms, staff and management are incredible. We have stayed at RIU hotels all around the world and have never been so happy with the service provided by these magnificent staff, from top to bottom. The food was varied and delicious, the room was really well equipped and cleaned and restocked by the lovely Karima. Considering that the Covid-19 situation escalated, and guests were leaving and not being replaced, the management and staff coped admirably with the logistics of reducing clientelle. All this done with a smile and no reduction in the quality of service or food (thank you Mr Ahmed Head Chef)I am unable to name ALL the staff who served us so well, but here are just some who deserve special mention. Faisal and Mimoune - Pool bar. Ayoub, Yusef and Adel Wahid - Jungle Bar. Bo Walid - Lunch Restaurant.Abdul and Ibrahim guide and driver on our Essaouiratrip. Great respect goes to our TUI reps Halim and Amir for their great patience and good humour during a very trying time sorting out details of our return rescue flights. Finally, to ALL the staff and management of RIU Palace TikidaTaghazout that really made every effort to make our holiday as enjoyable as possible under the circumstances, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. God willing we will return next year and hope to see you all again. Stay safe, stay healthy.
