The hype
Travelers adore the staff and the lush garden setting in the middle of the city, but the food buffet gets repetitive after a few days.
TUI BLUE Medina Gardens - Adults Only - All Inclusive
$150-250/ nuit
Réservez si You want an adults-only all-inclusive oasis that is actually walkable to the Jemaa el-Fnaa chaos.
Pourquoi les gens l'adorent
- Unbeatable location: 5-minute walk to the Medina but feels like a walled garden
- The 'Relax Pool' is heated in winter and strictly rep-free
- Rooftop terrace offers prime Koutoubia Mosque sunset views without the crowds
En bref : A peaceful sanctuary with a killer location, provided you don't get stuck in the noisy 'Building 3' or expect air conditioning during a winter heatwave.
Évalué par @Laurahtrav: I booked a suite here for a romantic getaway and honestly, having a private jacuzzi overlooking the gardens was the highlight. It’s the perfect quiet escape right in the middle of the crazy Medina action. We felt totally safe and pampered.
Ce que les clients qui ont séjourné ici ont dit
Reality check
The 'Jacuzzi Room' upgrade is often a trap—many are located in the noisiest part of the resort and the tubs themselves can be finicky.
- You want to explore the souks on foot but retreat to a safe, quiet(er) haven
- You prefer a 'light' all-inclusive where you can still eat out at local restaurants
- You hate children splashing in the pool (strict 16+ policy)
Propreté et entretien
8.5
- Housekeeping: Daily and generally thorough. Maids do cute towel art, but sometimes forget to restock water.
- Bathroom hygiene: Clean but aging. Grout lines in some showers show wear, and the lobby bathroom is often described as 'shabby'.
- Maintenance: Gardens are immaculate. Rooms show signs of wear (scuffed furniture, stiff balcony doors).
- Linens & towels: Towels can be a bit scratchy/worn. Bedding is clean and crisp.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells of fresh flowers/incense. Some ground floor rooms can smell musty if not aired out.

FAQ et astuces cachées
Tout ce que vous voulez vraiment savoir avant de réserver.
Is the alcohol actually unlimited?
Yes, but it's local spirits and beer (Flag/Casablanca). International brands cost extra. Cocktails are sugary pre-mix style.
Can I bring a guest back to my room?
Strictly no. Security is tight and non-registered guests are not allowed past the lobby.
Is the pool heated?
Only the 'Relax Pool' (the smaller one) is heated from Nov-March. The main activity pool is freezing in winter.
Do I need to exchange money before arriving?
No, you can't take Dirhams out of the country anyway. There's an ATM near the hotel, or use the hotel exchange (slightly worse rate but safe).
Is it safe to walk to the square at night?
Yes, the walk to Jemaa el-Fnaa is short (5-10 mins) and well-lit, but expect aggressive touts. Just keep walking and say 'La, shukran' (No, thank you).
Does the wifi work in the rooms?
Surprisingly yes, speeds are generally decent (250+ Mbps reported), though it can drop in the far corners of the gardens.
Conseils d'initiés
- ✨
The 'Tortoise Garden' is a real thing near the gym—go find it for a quiet moment.
- ✨
Skip the hotel lunch buffet and walk 5 mins to 'Stall 114' in the square for cheap, authentic seafood.
- ✨
There is a 'rep-free zone' around the Relax Pool if you don't want to be bothered by activity coordinators.
5 choses à savoir avant de partir
💡The 'open plan' bathrooms in some rooms mean the sink is next to the bed and the toilet has a glass door—zero privacy for couples.
💡You have to wear a wristband the entire time, and they are strict about it.
💡The orange trees in the garden are beautiful but the fallen fruit can attract wasps in the afternoon.
💡The gym opens early but is often missing dumbbells—go at 7 AM to snag the good equipment.
💡You can hear the call to prayer from *every* room; it's atmospheric for some, a wake-up call for others.
