Sofitel Luxury Hotels has opened a new thalassotherapy and well-being hotel in Agadir, Morocco.

The 174-room Sofitel Agadir Thalassa Sea & Spa, situated next to the Sofitel Agadir Royal Bay resort, is focused on guest’s well being.

A thalassotherapy institute aims to help restore and revitalise guests in a healthy ‘detox’ atmosphere.

The thalassotherapy services include 16 booths and massages with Argan oil and other essential oils. Treatments are inspired by Moroccan traditions which seek to awaken the senses and re-energise the mind and body.

“I am delighted to welcome this new flagship hotel to our network of Sofitel Thalassa Sea & Spa establishments,” explains Robert Gaymer Jones, CEO of Sofitel Worldwide.

“The Sofitel Agadir Thalassa Sea & Spa offers the best of today’s thalassotherapy treatments, paired with Sofitel’s inimitable standards and is incontestably the new well-being reference in Morocco.”

The hotel includes three restaurants, as well as a naturopath and a dietician to help guests with any special requirements. Accor operates 35 hotels in Morocco, including five under the Sofitel luxury brand.
