Iberostar Founty Beach

So far, staff are all lovely and welcoming!! They put a big smile on their faces when they speak to guests. All very friendly. Room very spacious and nice!

Just back from a family holiday at the Founty waves. We stayed here a week and our first time in Morocco. We were not disappointed at all. The hotel is clean, spacious and beautifully designed. There is plenty of security around the hotel outside which is reassuring for all guests. Food was varied each day whether it was breakfast,lunch or dinner and was delicious. There is everything from omelettes, yoghurts, cold meats, cereals and hot food for breakfast to name just a few. Lunch and dinner had so much to offer for everyone. Cooking stations for tagine dishes and chefs carving meat and fish as well all different hot and cold dishes. Meryem in the restaurant was very friendly and welcoming everytime we dined. Saadia and Libara were of great service in lobby bar. Fakerahdine was very helpful at pool snack bar. All the staff around the hotel were very friendly and helpful. Big credit to them all. The entertainment team were amazing. Walid, Mario, Yousef, Salah and Hanane deserve special mention because of we interacted with them most and they were friendly, helpful and caring. Yasmin and Nessima work in the kids club all day then get involved with the guests at night, dancing and mixing with everyone. Hard working and still finding energy in the evening. Very friendly and cheerful. The dancers at night done different shows each night and were exceptional and professional. A lot of effort and hard work was involved with each show. Noel was a lovely woman who cleaned in reception and was very warm and friendly too. Top marks for all staff mentioned but credit to all staff for making our holiday special and unforgettable. We want and hope to see you all again. The hotel is situated next to the beach and they also have sunbeds at the beach. The views are stunning and the beach is clean and so big and the sea is so inviting. Agadir is a beautiful city with friendly and helpful people. If you walk about there are plenty of sellers offering shells, bracelets and watches amongst other things but you just need to say no if you don't want to buy anything but be respectful. Finally our holiday was excellent and we can't wait to return. Thank you all. Shukran!

Our holiday was Jet2, 24/09-08/10, 2 weeks. We arrived at 11-30, filled in registration form and taken to cashier/exchange, paid hotel tax of £45 for 2 weeks and chose to use room safe costing a further £35. Porter took my wife and I together with our luggage to our beachfront double room apartment, room 3260, amazing sea/beach view 😍 The apartment was very spacious, large king size bed, bed settee 2 easy chairs plenty of hanging/drawer space, lovely bathroom, air conditioning, small fridge, plenty of wall plugs. Room cleaned daily, fresh towels each day, bedding changed every 2 days. The main restaurant is extremely busy and very much like a "canteen " facility. Breakfast is extensive with everything you could wish for, all self service from stations, help yourself from coffee machine, juices, cold meat/cheeses, full English if needed, omelette, cereals, everything for even the fussiest of eaters, however everything was only aired, nothing was "hot " which was disappointing. The evening meal was also substantial in choice of food, from very nice salads, soups, cooked Moroccan dishes, a good cavery (pork,chicken), pizza ,and amazing desserts 🍨 a choice for everyone but again only luke warm, we could always find something to eat but often cold, the desserts are fabulous 👌 There is a pool side cafe/restaurant serving food from 11-00 /18-00, popular and again a good selection, chicken nuggets, pizza's, salads even pasta, self service cold drinks machine, coffee machine and bar for alcohol drinks There are two main bar areas, one in reception lobby, one on the lower floor, both outside seating on metal seats, uncomfortable and in need of cushions, also many people were smoking, cigarette or vape, the area needs a no smoking section as the "smoke/smell " is not very pleasant. The downstairs bar has a guitarists and has quiz notes, the lobby bar has a pianist. The drinks are poor, red/white wine only just palatable in small quantities, lager beer flat and tasteless, spirits, gin,vodka,brandy, rum,very weak with no strength very disappointing. The pools are large and never busy for swimming, however, there are over 1200 sunbeds and all are crammed together with no space between them so it's impossible to turn them round for sunbathing, also they are extremely uncomfortable and in serious need of upgrading or replacing, the same problems with the umbrella's, past there sell by date and not connected securely to the post holding them resulting in winds blowing them from the stands. The pool surface areas are dangerous, broken tiles, uneven surfaces, areas which are a safety risk. The entertainment team work very hard, aqua aerobics, zumba, darts, archery and a small show on the stage, they are not to pushy just enthusiastic
The music around the pool can be noisy at times The private section on the beach is very nice, clean with plenty of sunbeds but also uncomfortable and the metal framework pertruding through. The 7 kl promenade is great for a walk, safe with plenty of security personnel, also good security at the hotel. The hotel is rated 4 star but it is really a 3 star plus, the staff make it worth the 4 star rating. All the staff are friendly, helpful and always smiling, they are considerate in every aspect. We had a "nice " holiday rather than a great holiday, a holiday to remember rather than to praise. The hotel has lots of plus points but also many negative ones. The hotel needs a lot of refurbishment, certain area's need upgrading, the sunbeds/umbrella's need replacing and the food would be more enjoyable if kept hot. We have tried to give our honest opinion and assessment, other holiday makers will disagree but we have tried to report on our stay and experience. If you go to the hotel enjoy what is on offer, the staff will make your holiday
