If you're staring out at frost on the windscreen at home, Golf Du Soleil's big selling point is pretty obvious: average temperatures around 77 to 82ºF and a strong chance of sunshine through the winter months. It's become one of the go-to names in Agadir, and for good reason. You've got two contrasting courses designed by Fernando Muella and Gerard Courbin, both on-site, so you're getting variety without the need to move base or spend half your trip in a hire car.
Set between the Atlantic coast and the Atlas foothills, it's a proper holiday backdrop, palms, water features and those distant mountains on the horizon. The two courses don't feel like carbon copies either. One is more parkland and tree-lined where position matters, while the other is more open and gives you that 'hit it and chase it' feel when the ground firms up. Either way, water is a regular consideration, so bring a few extra balls if you're the optimistic type.
The setting is often a little more sheltered than you'd expect this close to the Atlantic, which helps when you're trying to hold a green in the afternoon breeze. Expect plenty of water, waterfalls and mature planting, so it looks and feels like a resort course, but there's still enough going on to keep you thinking. It's also well-suited to mixed-ability groups, with enough bite to keep low-handicappers engaged and enough forgiveness to let higher-handicappers enjoy the round without losing a sleeve every nine holes.
If Agadir is on your winter shortlist, Golf Du Soleil is an easy one to slot into a Morocco golf break with two courses on your doorstep and a base that's close to restaurants and nightlife when you're done for the day.
Who is this for?
Golfers who want winter sun in Morocco, two on-site courses and a hassle-free base near Agadir.
Who is it best for?
Mixed-ability groups, couples and societies looking for reliable weather, contrasting courses in one location and easy access from UK airports.

The complex at Golf Du Soleil consists of three distinct courses: the Red and Yellow loops have nine holes each, while the Blue Course is a full championship layout. The original 1999 course is full of variety and charm and will remind some of playing golf in Florida.
In the tradition of most Moroccan golf courses it is delicately landscaped with flowers, decorative lakes, eucalyptus trees and brooms. Players will need to know how to drive the longest holes to challenge the par, but also place the wagers to play on the narrower holes. Most of its greens are well defended by generous bunkers which will spice up the game. The Champion course is reminiscent of links courses around the world, although sporty by its design, but flat and without particular physical difficulty, will allow the most motivated players to play this course on foot. Its open layout will guarantee a true game experience.
The Championship course, longer than its sister course The Tikida course remains the favorite of good players, which regularly hosts club competitions, national and international tournaments.
When opened in 1999, the Tikida course was originally just 9 holes, it was enlarged in 2006 when the next 9 holes was added to the delight of many golfers who nicknamed it "the little garden".
The Tikida course is shorter than its sister the Championship course, measuring aprox 5500m from the white tees, however this doesn't mean it is less technical. Ideal for those looking to work on their iron game, with its narrow fairways.
A few holes nestled in the natural valleys of the field will make the first 9 holes, before going down to the club house by the back 9 holes are open and longer. Equally defended greens spice up the game.
The Tikida Golf Palace hotel with 54 suites, is at the heart of this beautiful golf course, just a few meters from the green of par 3 No. 7.

This was the first course we played and given the tiny amount of rainfall recently. Tikida course wasin good condition but with GUR patches on some fairways. Greens were good and true and bunkers well manicured. 31 points with 3 blobs and only one lost ball. Required a trolley at 10 Euro each. Will play it again.

Nice course, but not as good as other two. Again tree lined links type.

This courses offers 27 holes, 3 loops of 9 which allowed the caddy master the flexibility of setting off groups and individuals separately. This helped us and we followed another 4 ball game quite comfortably and finished in around 4 hours without caddies which seemed to be the norm. The drinks were expensive by comparison to other courses but the setting is spectacular.

Two courses here, Championship which was the more difficult of the two as the greens were very fast, too fast for holiday golfers really. Tikida course which was our favourite. Some tricky and interesting holes with the greens much better. Staff friendly but be aware you will be asked if you want a caddy. They are very good and certainly know the course very well. As golfers all arrive on buses there is a mad checking in time when all arrive together but staff coped really well and with a smile.
