Dar Albatros is a serene retreat tucked away in the peaceful countryside of Sidi Kaouki, surrounded by lush gardens and natural beauty. The property spans 2 hectares and features nine charming rooms: five are nestled around the swimming pool in a vibrant garden setting, while four are tucked away in a separate, very quiet garden — perfect for those seeking extra privacy. A spacious sun terrace next to the pool invites you to relax, soak up the sun, and enjoy the calm atmosphere. The beach and village are just a 15–20 minute walk away, or only 5 minutes by car, giving you the perfect balance of seclusion and easy access to local life. Here, peace and quiet are part of the experience — ideal for recharging your batteries and enjoying a true escape. The area is safe and welcoming, allowing guests to explore the surroundings with confidence and ease. Dar Albatros is more than a place to stay — it’s a place to unwind, connect with nature, and savor every moment of your time in Morocco.
