Hyatt Place Taghazout Bay transfer — Agadir airport, Marrakech & Essaouira
Opened in May 2015 , Hyatt Place Taghazout Bay was the first Hyatt Place hotel to open in Africa .
Opened in May 2015, Hyatt Place Taghazout Bay was the first Hyatt Place hotel to open in Africa. Set 80 metres above sea level on a hill overlooking the Atlantic, it offers panoramic ocean views from nearly every room and direct access to the Tazegzout Golf Course next door. The hotel forms part of the wider sustainable Taghazout Bay Resort development.
The property has 172 rooms, suites and villas, with most offering sea or mountain views, all with private balconies or terraces. Standard rooms are 35 m², ocean-view king rooms 50 m², and the largest Hyatt Taghazout Bay Residences villas reach 200 m² across two stories with three bedrooms and a private pool. Each room features the signature Hyatt Grand Bed, a Cozy Corner sofa-sleeper, and a 42-inch flat screen TV.
Facilities include 2 outdoor pools (one heated), a 24-hour StayFit gym, a yoga room, the ASENFO Spa (recently rebranded as Spa by Cinq Mondes) with a Moroccan hammam, hot tub, sauna and 6 treatment rooms, plus a kids' club. The on-site Gallery Cafe restaurant offers show cooking, and the 24/7 Market provides drinks, salads and sandwiches around the clock. Guests reach the private beach via a complimentary shuttle running between the Hyatt Place and the sister Hyatt Regency Taghazout Bay.
Hyatt Place Taghazout Bay is 40 km / ~40 minutes from Agadir Al Massira Airport (AGA), 3 km before Taghazout village. There is no complimentary airport shuttle from AGA — guests arrive by private transfer or taxi.

At-a-glance — positives and honest concerns
- ★★★★★
"Incredible views over Taghazout Bay" The location 80 metres above sea level is the property's signature feature — guests consistently praise the panoramic Atlantic Ocean and sunset views. Reviewers describe a "calm and relaxing hotel" with a peaceful atmosphere ideal for de-stressing. Most rooms face the ocean; "mountain view" rooms look toward the golf course or Atlas foothills.

"Smiling, helpful staff working as a team" Staff service is consistently praised — "always smiling and work so well as a team". Named team members mentioned repeatedly include Mr Rachid and Hussain at check-in (Moroccan tea while you settle), Brahim and Allarabi, and Kaouter at the spa. General Manager Gautier Py personally responds to many TripAdvisor reviews — a sign of attentive operations.

- ★★★★★
"Free shuttle to beach saved us money" A standout perk: regular complimentary shuttle bus down to the sister Hyatt Regency private beach area. From there, a wide promenade walks all the way to Taghazout village. Guests describe the beach as "huge with lovely waves to surf", with camels and horses walking along — a typically Moroccan coastal experience.

- ★★★★★
"Excellent breakfast — fresh Msemen daily" The complimentary hot breakfast is a major positive. Guests highlight fresh Moroccan Msemen and pastries daily, varied hot and cold options, fresh juices and fruits, and freshly made breakfast sandwiches. The Gallery Cafe restaurant also offers a la carte dinner with show cooking. Moroccan mint tea is served daily as a thoughtful touch.

"A bit isolated — plan transfers" The honest flipside: the resort is 3 km before Taghazout village and 17 km from Agadir city, on a hilltop accessed by a single road. Without a pre-booked private transfer, getting to airport pickups, Marrakech excursions, or Agadir is reliant on costly hotel-arranged taxis. The internal shuttle to the beach is great; for off-property travel, plan ahead.

- ★★★★☆
"Decor showing some age" Opened in 2015, parts of the hotel show their age — bathrooms are described as "a bit outdated" and gym equipment as needing updates. The pool area, breakfast, staff service, and views all remain standout. Returning guests note that the upcoming surf academy and Taghazout Bay Medina (shops, restaurants, bars) developments will improve the area significantly.
