The hotel features a luxury spa and Thalassia centre for residents and visitors who wish to make some time for themselves and unwind and relax in a tranquil atmosphere.
The bustling markets of old Saidia, Oujda and Nadoor are well worth exploring - the daily markets are fascinating and the best place to find the freshest locally produced fruit and vegetables. One of the best markets is held within the Medina. Here you will find everything from fresh fruit and vegetables, to leather goods, terracotta and local crafts typical of the region.
The brand new 850 berth marina attracts boat and yacht owners to the shores of Sadia, and offers a range of water sports such as wind surfing, kite surfing and jet ski hire.
