Iberostar Founty Beach

Our second time at this hotel.Fantastic Hotel Rooms very good clean and spacious bathroom very good we had a minor problem with the shower on second day but dealt with immediately. Food very good and varied. The best part however are the staff they are brilliant so friendly can't do enough for you.A special mention to Rasheed in the bar who looked after us very well.

The rooms:

bigger than I expected. Comfortable. Good beds. Clean. Lovely view of the pool. Really close to everything. Insufficient drawers for 4 people. Had to keep a lot in our suitcases. Could do with a spruce up but perfectly adequate.

The food:

Buffet restaurant fantastic. So much choice. Always hot and tasty. Brilliant salads and fruit. We tipped every night and got a reserved table and has all our drinks served and exceptional service.

Moroccan restaurant really worth a visit. Beautiful authentic food. Portions were huge

Poolside: Loved the fresh donuts in the afternoon and the late breakfast was awesome

The pool: huge. Really big. I could float around on my lilo and was never bothered by others throwing balls, splashing or swimming cause there was space for everyone. And it wasn’t cold. Loads of sun beds.

The beach:

Loved that there was a security guard stationed there. Whilst I didn’t take valuables I felt safe leaving my towels and cream etc on the sunbed whilst I went in the sea. Sea colder than the pool but still not bad. Great waves for kids playing.

My teens:

Enjoyed playing water polo, beach volleyball and hanging out in the teen room in evenings. What they did - no idea but all very happy.

Evening entertainment:

Not my thing anywhere so can’t comment on whether it was any good. The exception being the pianists in reception who were fab.

The bars:

I sampled many of the cocktails and they were all good as was the red wine.

The staff:

Helpful and friendly

Trips:

Le Petit Train: 20dh per person. Catch it at the front door. Ask security and they will tell you when next due. We got off at the marina and had a wander then caught it back.

Cable Car and Kasbah: took at taxi there and back 100dh each way including tip. £15pp to ride the cable car and £8pp to visit the Kasbah. Views were amazing and really appreciated the history.

DANIALAND Waterpark: return taxi 300dh and £20 per person to enter. It was great. Loads of slides to suit all ages. 15dh for a locker and 30dh for a sun bed. Both worth it. Cafe serving pizzas burgers pasta etc very reasonably priced.

The weather: 😭😢👎😁😁👍

First 5 days were bad. Complete cloud cover and haze did not see the sun. Was quite depressing tbh.

Second 5 days was sun, sun, sun. Loved it was great.

I really was disappointed in the first 5 days. None of my research prepared me for this.

Would I come again. Absolutely yes. But not in July.

I have just returned from 9 days at the Hotel and can honestly say it was wonderful from start to end. Bedrooms: as described in brochure, beds a bit too hard but that is my preference and I wouldn't mark it down due to that.
water was available from water stations so that you could ill up your empty bottles.
We could see the sea from our room which was a nice surprise albeit a side view. tip all odd number face towards to Hotel next door, and even towards the Pool. Our room was 3147 so we faced towards next door but it wasn't an issue. negative no tea and coffee facilities in the bedroom so if you like a morning cuppa take a little kettle with you, positives it had lots of coffee/tea facilities available around. the hotel.

Food: Very good selection, salads, fruit, fish, meat and fantastic deserts you definitely won't go hungry as they cater for all tastes - negative was that it was luke warm / cold but they do supply a microwave.

Alcoholic drinks -I wasn't keen on the rose wine, but again preference as there was lots still enjoying it. My Partner said the beer and vodka was ok.

Entertainment- animation team a big shout out, they all work extremely hard and are very approachable and friendly. We had several long chats with some of the Guys. Night Entertainment was good the dancers and animation team kept us entertained.

Down fall Pool is very deep and cold - I couldn't touch the floor so I swam around using a noodle and as it was always cloudy the sun wasn't able to warm it up. The weather was very warm but heads up very cloudy every day please continue to wear your sun cream we saw lots of burnt people who though it was cloudy and they didn't need it. A big shout out to the lifeguards whilst we were there several parents underestimated the deep water and the children go into difficulties the guards were there in a flash. Distance to Marina approximately 45 min walk and you can always get a taxi back approx £4 Would I go again definitely -
