Oualidia hotels and hostels
Hotel Thalassa
The only hotel on the main drag, this slightly dated place is better than you might expect, with bright, airy whitewashed rooms with old-fashioned bathrooms. It’s good value but far from the Oualidia beach.
Motel A L’Araignée Gourmande
A friendly hotel with spacious, comfortable rooms that could do with some modernising. The ones at the back however have views of the lagoon from a balcony.
Villa La Diouana
All you can hear at night from this stunning 1930s villa is the crash of the ocean and the wind.
L’Hippocampe
A friendly hotel with immaculate rooms off a garden filled with flowers, looking over the Oualidia lagoon. There’s an excellent fish restaurant (set menus cost Dh110 to Dh250), and steps down to the beach. It’s family friendly.
Hôtel Restaurant L’Initiale
This little, white villa with a warm orange interior and pleasant and comfortable rooms, is well equipped with new fittings, spotless bathrooms and tiny balconies.
La Sultana
Spectacularly luxurious, this gorgeous hotel has just 11 rooms with fireplace, private Jacuzzi and terrace overlooking the lagoon.
