Last Minute Couples Holidays to Morocco

These resort-style bases suit couples who want comfortable rooms, easy days out and a setting that feels relaxed after the busier cities. Our Morocco holidays in this group focus on hotels with pools, spa treatments and sea views.

• Essaouira: Essaouira sits on the Atlantic coast about 170 km from the southern imperial city, and its fortified seaside medina has hotels and riads that suit couples who want walks along the ramparts and long seafood dinners. The town is windier and slower than the imperial cities, which can be a trade-off if you were hoping for constant sunshine on the sand. Still, we think it is one of the best last minute choices for two people who want a calm base with a clear sense of place, the same brief our Cheap Morocco Holidays deals are built around.
• Marrakech: The southern imperial city offers the most choice of couples stays, from converted riad hotels with roof terraces inside the walled medina to larger resort hotels on the city edge with pools and spa treatments. The main square of Jemaa el-Fnaa is close to the old town riads, which means a lively evening is always within walking distance. The trade-off is noise and crowds in the centre, so we tend to recommend a quieter riad for couples who want to sleep well after a busy day. Browse our Morocco holidays for riad options.
• Fes: Fes is home to a sprawling, car-free medieval old town, one of the largest of its kind anywhere in the world, where couples can wander between craft quarters and traditional hammams in the same walk. Riads here tend to be older and more intimate than those in the southern city, which suits travellers who want history and atmosphere over pool time, the same brief our Morocco Family Holidays deals are built around for those seeking culture alongside comfort. Expect steep, narrow lanes that are hard to navigate with large cases, so we advise travelling light.
• Chefchaouen: Chefchaouen is a mountain town in the Rif range, famed for its blue-painted medina, and its guesthouses offer quiet rooms with views over the rooftops. The town is smaller and more intimate than the imperial cities, which gives couples a slower rhythm of evening walks and mint tea, the same brief our Morocco Luxury Holidays deals are built around. The bus journey from the northern port city or from the imperial city of Fez takes longer than a city transfer, so we factor the travel time into the itinerary before you book.
• Agadir: Agadir is a modern beach resort with a long sandy bay, and its hotels include adults-friendly pools, spa facilities and sea-view rooms that suit couples seeking sun and sea. The resort was rebuilt after a severe earthquake, so it lacks the old-town character of the inland cities. We recommend it for couples who want sunshine and resort ease rather than cultural exploration, and we check which hotels have the most private balconies before you commit.
