Where to Stay in Tamraght
Surf camp, guesthouse, your own flat, or a five-star down the road: how to choose, what each costs in dirham, and where regulars actually book.
Updated 24 July 2026
First decision before the room: Tamraght or Taghazout. Tamraght is the quieter, more residential village, cheaper rents, fewer restaurants, easier to focus. Taghazout, 4 km north, has more cafes, more coworking, and more noise. Most people who come to work base themselves in Tamraght and go up when they want company; the full comparison is here.
Every way to stay, at a glance
| Option | Cost | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Surf camp, all-in week | €315-730 / week | First week, learning to surf |
| Coliving with coworking | €300-470 / month shared | Working stays without admin |
| Guesthouse or surf house, monthly | negotiated, between camp and flat | Company without the camp timetable |
| Your own flat, local market | 2,500-6,000 MAD / month | Long stays, the real savings |
| Airbnb | 2-4x local rents | First two to four weeks only |
| Taghazout Bay resorts | resort pricing | Five-star comfort, ten minutes away |
Surf camps and coliving (all-in)
The path of least resistance for week one. A weekly package, room, half board, lessons, airport transfer, runs roughly €315-730 depending on how nice the room is. Easy Surf Maroc is repeatedly singled out for food and vibe; Solid Surf House has a pool; Nomad, Heaven and Reborn carry long review trails, covered in the surf lessons and camps guide. If you are here to work rather than surf, the coliving spaces fit better: Nomadico (Tamraght, rooftop coworking, around €470/month shared), Kasbari House (coworking included, around €300/month), and The Offsite (Sept-April only, €26-39/night).
Your own apartment: where the real savings are
Local-market monthly rents in Tamraght, roughly:
| Type | Per month (MAD) | Per month (EUR) |
|---|---|---|
| Studio | 2,500-3,500 | €225-320 |
| 1-bed furnished | 3,500-5,000 | €320-455 |
| 2-bed furnished | 4,000-6,000 | €365-545 |
Whole houses for groups exist too, negotiated the same way, and rare enough that they go by word of mouth. The cheap flats and houses are found through the Taghazout & Tamraght Nomads Facebook group and local agents (expect roughly a 500 MAD finder fee on signing), not online. How rent fits into a full monthly budget is in the cost of living guide.
Airbnb in Tamraght: the right tool for the wrong job
Airbnb runs two to four times local rents, so treat it as a scouting base, not a home: fine for your first two to four weeks while you walk the village and see flats in person, expensive after that. Listings skew toward renovated apartments and the odd riad-style guesthouse; book something central so the scouting is walkable.
Guesthouses and surf houses, month by month
The middle path: a room in a guesthouse or surf house with breakfast and a desk, paid monthly. Good if you want company without the camp timetable, and the usual home of the village’s riad-style stays. Prices are negotiated, landing between a camp week and a bare flat.
Hotels: the five-star strip next door
There are no chain hotels in Tamraght village, and that is the point of the place. But the Taghazout Bay resort zone sits directly between Tamraght and Taghazout: Fairmont, Hilton, Hyatt and Radisson Blu, some within a 10 to 20 minute walk of the village. If your trip is resort comfort with village surf, that is the answer; you can sleep at a five-star and still take your surf lessons at Crocos. Everyone else stays in the village and spends the difference on months, not nights.
Sign before the season. Surf high season is October-April. That is when flats get pricier and landlords would rather rent to surfers by the week. If you are signing a monthly lease over winter, get it in writing that it covers the whole stay. June-August is cheapest, hottest, and flattest.
What regulars actually do
Book a camp or Airbnb for the first week. Join the Facebook group. Walk the village, ask at the cafes and your coworking space, and sign a monthly flat once you have seen it. Then sort your arrival from the airport and read the full base-camp briefing.
Common questions
Are there hotels in Tamraght?
Not chain hotels in the village itself; Tamraght runs on guesthouses, surf houses and camps. The five-star resorts of Taghazout Bay (Fairmont, Hilton, Hyatt, Radisson Blu) sit between Tamraght and Taghazout, some within a 10 to 20 minute walk of the village.
Are there cheap monthly apartments in Tamraght?
Yes. Local studios run about 2,500 to 3,500 MAD a month (225 to 320 EUR) and one-beds 3,500 to 5,000 MAD. The cheapest are found through local Facebook groups and agents, not Airbnb.
How do you find a long-term rental in Tamraght?
Book a camp or Airbnb for the first week or two, join the Taghazout & Tamraght Nomads Facebook group, walk the village and ask at cafes, then sign in person. Agents charge roughly a 500 MAD finder fee. Almost none of the good cheap flats are listed online.
Is Airbnb expensive in Tamraght?
Airbnb runs two to four times local monthly rents, so it is the wrong tool for a long stay. It is the right tool for your first two to four weeks while you scout a flat in person.
Is it better to stay in Tamraght or Taghazout?
For long, focused stays Tamraght is quieter and cheaper; Taghazout has more cafes and buzz. Most people who come to work base in Tamraght and visit Taghazout.
What is the best surf camp in Tamraght for beginners?
Several camps bundle lessons, board and wetsuit; Easy Surf Maroc is often singled out for food and atmosphere, and Nomad, Heaven and Reborn have long review trails. Book a week, then decide whether to move into your own flat.
What is the difference between a surf camp and a guesthouse?
A surf camp bundles room, meals, lessons and transfers into a weekly package; a guesthouse is just a room you can take monthly. Camps suit week trips, flats and guesthouses suit long stays.
