Agadir enjoys a rare privilege on Morocco's Atlantic coast: sunshine almost every day of the year. It is in this almost generous setting that the Iberostar Waves Founty Beach establishes itself, its toes in the sand, just a short walk from the city centre. No road to cross to reach the sea, no shuttle to wait for. The beach is right there, immediate and wide, and the hotel leans into it with a directness you appreciate from the very first moment. Four stars, a well-oiled all-inclusive formula and a genuinely family-friendly atmosphere: that is the proposition.

Arrival

Step into the Iberostar Waves Founty Beach and the architectural intention becomes clear almost immediately: everything faces the sea. The lobby opens onto the gardens, the gardens lead to the pools, and the pools give directly onto Agadir beach. The transition between inside and outside is seamless, as if the hotel never intended to keep its guests indoors. The rooms offer a generous range, from double sea view rooms in beachfront position to 61 sqm suites with a separate living area and an extra bed. The 40 sqm Junior Suites come with a practical sofa bed for children, while the 34 sqm family rooms with garden views work well for families who prioritise outdoor space over panoramic vistas. For those who want to wake up to the Atlantic with no compromises, the Double Sea View Beachfront delivers exactly what it promises.

Dining, all included

The hotel's dining offer is built around two main restaurants and complementary food outlets. Mercure is the central buffet restaurant, where breakfasts unfold amid generous variety and evening meals allow guests to graze according to their mood. Local produce features regularly, and the rhythm of the evening service is relaxed and unhurried. For a more focused experience, Antares serves traditional Moroccan cuisine: tagines, couscous, and the warm fragrance of coriander and cumin in a themed setting. This is where you genuinely connect with the country's food culture without leaving the hotel. During the day, the Fountain Snack Bar steps in for bites between swims, while the Orion Lobby Bar keeps drinks flowing throughout the day in the relaxed atmosphere of the main lobby. We invite you to verify the details of the all-inclusive offer directly on the Iberostar website, as inclusions may vary depending on the period, room type and booking.

Days by the water

The hotel has three outdoor pools and one indoor pool, a setup that guarantees a sheltered option on the occasional windy day or for parents who want to swim in peace. One of the outdoor pools is dedicated to children, with appropriate depth. The beach, accessed directly from the hotel, extends this aquatic space onto Agadir's characteristically ochre sand. On land, the activity programme is substantial: aerobics, basketball, beach volleyball, football, bowling, clay-court tennis and dance classes are all available on site. The fitness centre rounds out the offering for those who keep an active routine even on holiday. Golf enthusiasts will find five courses near the hotel with equipment available to hire, though play is at an additional cost. The spa deserves specific mention. A hammam, saunas, massages, treatments and a mini-spa with an indoor pool freely accessible from noon to 2pm make up a coherent wellness offering. The fitness centre is paired with the Bioform programme. Massages and treatments are available at an additional charge.

Evening vibes

When the day's heat gives way to the softness of Atlantic evenings, the Orion Lobby Bar becomes the natural gathering point. Evening entertainment is part of the hotel's standard programme, in keeping with the Iberostar resort tradition of keeping guests engaged after dark. The Moroccan architectural setting gives evenings a character you simply do not find in a standard Mediterranean resort.

Who is it for?

The Iberostar Waves Founty Beach is clearly designed with families in mind. The Star Camp children's programme divides age groups thoughtfully: the jungle-themed space for 4 to 7 year-olds, Dolphin for 8 to 12 year-olds, and Eagle for teenagers aged 13 to 17. Each group has its own thematic universe and age-appropriate activities, which genuinely frees up parents during the day. Couples without children and older travellers will also find their rhythm here, particularly through the spa, the adults' pools and Agadir's proximity for cultural outings. Being 1 km from the city centre is a genuine asset: the souk, the marina and the lively seafront promenade are reachable on foot or by taxi for a handful of dirhams.
