Iberostar Waves Founty Beach

Larry Kiernan

We had heard great reports about this hotel from friends back home and, having just spent a week there (January ‘26), I’m happy to report that Iberostar Founty Beach lives up to the hype and was in no regard found wanting. The rooms are spacious, tastefully decorated in the Moroccan style and clean. The hotel is perfectly situated within easy striking distance of the beach and promenade, actually it backs on to it in such a seamless fashion that one of my kids asked me if our hotel owned all of the beach! 😂 The grounds are extremely well kept by an industrious landscaping team and everything, pools, snack-bar, sports & entertainment facilities etc are all well appointed & conveniently located. The buffet-style restaurant is a joy. I’m not overly adventurous with my food but I some nights found myself having two or three distinct main courses in one night, there was such an embarrassment of culinary riches on offer. This trip has assuredly broadened my palate! But really it’s the people that make this hotel. Of the many guests I spoke to, we were all in agreement that the staff, and indeed the Moroccan people in general, are some of the most genuinely warm, friendly and funny you could ever hope to meet. Special shout out goes to Mustapha, the ‘capo di tutti i capi’ at the snack bar down by the beach, whose command of the Irish language (and many others besides) is absolutely first rate. In honesty though, the Iberostar Founty Beach crew are all first rate, I will be strenuously recommending this hotel to friends & family making the trip to Morocco.

The most amazing Spa experience ever! Mohammed at the spa reception is so welcoming, helpful and professional. He ensures the spa's high calibre reputation is always exceeded. We paid £121 for a full hamam experience with 2 massages. One massage we had on the hamam day the second massage we had two days later. My messeuse Rabia has magic in her hands. Her soft gentle touch when needed, and some deep tissue massages are amazing! I usually book my hamam at Sofitel, buti am glad I gave Ibeostar a try. They are my new found gem!

We visited the hotel during Easter holidays. The children loved it and we was really lucky with the weather. The beach is right outside the back gate which is perfect and on a hot day the breeze was welcome. The children loved the kids pool but the other pools were too cold and one was very deep. Would probably be great in the heat of the summer as a welcomed cool down. The staff are lovely, the hotel was clean. If you arrive at thr restaurant just before opening we used to like sitting in the outdoor balcony area next to the restaurant. There was plenty of choice and the kids loved the fruit options. The wine was lovely and is in a bottle rather than a machine so it was nice to pour your own, we were all inclusive. Spacious room and the cleaners do a great job. They were very appreciative of our tip. Also tip the bar staff if you can they look after you very well. We went on the little train that runs roughly every hr outside of the hotel, nice ride around near the marina, my children enjoyed it. We got our own private transfer from the airport and was much quicker for the children. We hope to return one day. I have also recommended to friends and two have since booked a holiday here which is great.

Totally loved this hotel. We were here in the first week of Nov 25 and the weather was hot about 25ish over the week with no rain or clouds. The pools are superb, 1 heated 2 not. The poolbar was brilliant, all the free drinks and food was so nice, so much choice for a Coeliac. The beach was about a 2 minute walk from the pools, lovely sectioned off area for the hotel, a few looky looky men but they do not pester you which is lovely and you can take drinks fro he poolbar to the beach with no issues. The rooms are so spacious with the best shower ever and cleaned everyday with fresh towels. The restaurant is so well stocked with such a range of local and non local cuisine with an amazing selection of desserts and so much gluten free stuff I was never hungry. Breakfast was my favourite as we had fresh prepared omelettes every morning with cereal and fruit. The staff are the best on the island, and we tipped at the end of the holiday, 100DMs for our staff that we thought worked hard including the cleaning staff. Less than an hour transfer, lots to do, we went on a coach trip and the land train stops right outside every hour or just under. only 1 issue, the flipping wifi, they need a bigger router, other than that, just an amazing place to stay.

Had a great stay in this hotel. Rooms spacious enough. Nicely cleaned on evryday basis. Music and dancing finish after 11pm which was absolutely brilliant for us. Bars opened till midnight. Only one night been quiet noisy as one company celebrated birthday. But it was ok. Staff working really nice in all departments. They make you feel very welcomed and as part of the family really. We liked swimming pools arrangement with grassed palms islands. Grass, trees and flowers maintenence is top 👌. Beach part maintened by hotel fine. But public sand would have to be sifted.
