This whitewashed house overlooking the rocky cove of Aftas Beach is one of the best hostels in southern Morocco, not for its simple rooms and shared bathrooms, but for its perfect location that lets you fall asleep to crashing Atlantic waves. Thoughtful staff and several beachfront cafes next door mean you never have to leave if you don't want to.
If you've got time, patience, a good attitude and think you'll be hungry in a few hours, head next door to the unnamed Jamaican-themed cafe, where Hassan can whip up one of the best tajines you've ever had (if he feels like it), from Dh50.
