I don't know if you're all in a double room each or 3 in each room or 4 in one and 2 in another?
What I would suggest you do is google their fax number and fax (if possible) a nice creepy letter saying you've been recommended to stay there by a friend and couple you have a nice room(s) overlooking the pool (if you wish) or sea view or just garden view.

I suggest you fax it about 4/5 days before you go - not too early as they will foget! I did this when we went in Feb and stayed at the Tamlelt and got a lovely 2 bedroomed place (no doors on the rooms but we are 2 adults and 2 children) - didn't have a view but we didn't care as we were pretty close to one of the quieter pools.

I'm sure you'll all have fun

Thanks for that - we're 3 couples in 3 rooms. I just wondered whether some rooms were in a quieter location - I'm a terrible sleeper. We'll do as you say.

Not sure of any room numbers in the CV but there are some quieter ones towards the back of the resort and these may catch the lovely sunset - so perhaps request "quieter rooms but with a nice view" as some back onto a green, grassy area which backs onto the road - not noisy from the road but they're quite dark inside as they're away from the sun (but maybe cooler too).

Would really suit us, as we're never in the room apart from sleeping & showering. Thanks for all your help.

Hi,
Does anyone have an e-mail address for this hotel please as we need to request rooms close together? Thanks!

can't find a holiday countdown in the Africa forum so I'll post here.
19 days and we'll be on our way to London- 20 days and we'll hopefully be sunning ourselves in morocco.

I notice the temperatures are starting to warm up slowly but there always seems to be a strong breeze there. Does anybody know if the wind generally makes it feel coolish there at this time of year or will it be quite a warm one. Reading back, I think it might sound like a daft question

Hi Shirley

Bet you're excited.

Firstly, quite often the weather forecast doesn't show accurately as they have their own weather system in Agadir (to do with the Atlas Mountains on one side and Ocean the other) go to wunderground.com and put in Agadir and that's a better site.

The web address for CV is resa.agador@menara.ma - I usually send a lovely grovelling letter asking for a nice room but don't expect a reply although they usually look at it. If it appears they've given you a different area just ask them if you can change.

The resort is basically one huge resort with 2 reception areas at different sides of it - one more lavish reception being CV Agador and the other El Pueblo Tamlelt. Whichever you stay in, you use the same 4 pools, same buffet restaurant, same A La Carte Restaurants (these are fixed courses but are served to you) so the reception is really the only difference. The room layouts are again surrounding the pools on different sides of the resort. We personally have preferred to book the Tamlelt (first time CV and 2 more times Tamlelt and next time Tamlelt) simply due to it being much cheaper. The rooms we had with Tamlelt were better but it may have been that we had a room at the back of CV part and it was dark and musty smelling - but clean and ok. You really will NOT be spending much time in your room, there's so much to do there.

Around the resort you can wear what you like, casual in the buffet restaurant so not just your bikini!! Walking to the beach is ok in shorts and small tops - if you're slim and pretty you will get looked at but I expect you get looked at in other countries too - shouldn't be so pretty and slim!! If you go on a trip remember to respect being in a Muslim country and take a wrap for your bare shoulders and a light skirt to cover your knees.

I'm sure you'll have lots of fun. Everyone there is lovely - in our opinion anyway.
Hope this helps you.
Ju

Thanks for the reply ju. I'll let Shirley do the groveling for us all. I've spent ages trying to find the e mail address without success, so I' now a happy bunny. As we're 3 couples it does make things slightly easer if we're in the same block -so to speak. We're all really excited now, especiallys none of us have been to Agadir before. We've been watching the weather for a couple of weeks & it does seem to be starting to warm up now.

Dear both

If you send me a private message with your email address on I'll send you a map of the resort which should be helpful, hopefully

Ju

Thanks for all the info Ju. I believe Helen's sent you a pm requesting a map. Really looking forward now
