Waves at Surf Maroc Villa Mandala

Whether you’re looking for peeling point breaks, pumping barrels, endless mellow longboard waves, or small waves to learn on, Morocco has it all!

Morocco is an all-year outstanding surf holiday destination and its coastline, famous for its huge variety of surf, has something for everyone.

The summer months (May – September) see small to medium swells with surfing mostly taking place on the beaches, great for beginner and low intermediate surfers. During the winter months (October – April) the waves that have made Morocco famous come to life and the surf becomes world-class.

Why We Love Villa Mandala

The beachfront location and the stunning views from the Yoga Shala!

A unique Yoga Surf Retreat that transforms your mind, body, and spirit!

Unparalleled knowledge and professionalism of Surf Maroc yoga and surf instructors!

Accommodation

Villa Mandala offers nine tranquil bedrooms, each characterized by its unique size and theme. Among these, seven bedrooms boast en suite facilities complete with shower rooms and toilets.

The remaining two bedrooms share a spacious upstairs bathroom, complemented by an additional bathroom downstairs for your convenience.

The Cuisine

At Villa Mandala, the skilled chefs craft a delightful array of vegetarian cuisine using locally sourced, seasonal ingredients. Their menus find inspiration in a harmonious fusion of Moroccan and international flavours, resulting in a tantalizing selection of dishes. These meals are not only balanced and nourishing but also feature occasional indulgent delights.

Guests are warmly welcomed to partake in communal dining experiences on the terrace, which offers a stunning ocean view. Shared tables set the scene for breakfast and dinner, creating cherished moments that are an integral part of the Villa Mandala retreat.

For lunchtime, they provide a packed meal perfect for enjoying on the beach. Included within the Yoga Surf Retreat package are all meals, along with afternoon tea and a delectable serving of cake.

Activities

The Agadir region has many activities on offer on top of surfing! These include trips to the local market, Paradise Valley, sand dunes, horse or camel riding, Agadir Souk (market), hammam, massages, and much more!

Yoga Shala

Perched atop the villa’s rooftop, the Yoga Shala presents itself as a serene sanctuary with sweeping vistas of the beach, the ocean’s expanse, and the majestic mountains. Fitted with wooden interior finish and framed by glass doors, this space stands as an impressive indoor studio. Yet the space can seamlessly transform into an open and breezy haven, creating an unforgettable backdrop for your yoga practice.

I've used Awave twice ... so far. This is the second time I've used Awave for a trip to the maldives. Stayed in 2 different resorts this time. They've always been incredibly prompt at replying and handled everything for us, making sure the 2 Resorts were in touch to get us transfered half way through our trip. At one of the resorts I even bumped into Giulia and Delia who were out there surfing at the time. There's no doubt in my mind that I'll use awave again if I'm booking a surf trip

Indonesia Surf Trip/ Java/Bali/Sumba - James Colston was my representative from AWAVE - I’m an older solo surfer and James was attentive, respectful, extremely responsive from the initial planning stages all the way through the booking. And he was so patient with all my crazy questions along the way. I couldn’t have been more pleased with James’s level of service. Thank you James

Giulia was an amazing person to book with. I was overwhelmed with choices initially, but AWAVE knew their stuff and helped me with my options and even suggested delaying my trip so I could go to a certain hotel which ended up being the best decision I made all year.

Giulia and James were always on line to answer any question or to give an advice. The Ayada resort is perfect both for families or for couples. We did not have waves as the season goes from April to September, but there are plenty options to have fun and good times. Highly recommended both Awave and Ayada.

The AWAVE team are knowledgable and helpful. Giulia is a very helpful and patient person to deal with, and do not worry, you can trust her. I had to delay my trip to Morocco due to unforeseen circumstances and Giulia was very understanding. I have just returned from having a fantastic week at Amouage in Taghazout. Thanks AWAVE!

Awesome holiday to Hudhuranfushi. Giulia was very helpful and quick to respond and overall we were very impressed with Awave Travel.
Lohi's is a private, on site, awesome left hander that just kept giving. Also had options of 2 daily surf boat trips that went to other local breaks such as Sultans, Ninja's, Cokes, Jails. The surf team are amazing and we scored great waves the whole time we were there.
Stayed in a Sunset family beach villa which was perfect for a family of 4, then upgraded for the last 3 nights to Ocean Villas, both great for different reasons!
Island staff are so helpful and welcoming, and there's a good variety of food options available. Lots of other things to do such as paddleboarding, jet ski-ing, spa treatments, yoga and amazing snorkelling - with sharks, turtles and rays! We also hired bikes to get around and do morning surf checks!
An amazing trip, thank you Awave and Hudhuranfushi!

We had an amazing time on the Mentawai islands booked through Awave Travel.
Giulia was very helpful and available at all times during the booking process. And we had the best time on the Mentawais on the Maki Boat. The staff were amazing. Raul the surf guide was very helpful, friendly and coached us on the waves. Kaique the photographer produced top quality pictures and videos from the water, boat and drone.
Overall very happy and would highly recommend it.

We charted Seafarer for a 10 day trip in the Maldives. We booked with AWAVE about 12 months before. James was super helpful, really responsive and just easy to deal with. We even made a very last minute change to go to the central atolls which he arranged pretty much straight away. The trip itself was unreal, great surf, amazing wildlife and scenery. If you’re thinking about a surf charter, do it and book through these guys!
