Located on the Mediterranean coast and destined to become one of Morocco’s finest golf-learning destinations, the Marchica Lagoon Resort is a brand new residential and touristic development located only 15 minutes’ drive from the historic city of Nador, and 25 minutes from the Spanish enclave of Melilla.
Featuring a collection of luxurious apartments, a new 5-star hotel and world-class marina, the resort offers panoramic views over the breath-taking Marchica lagoon.
The brand-new 5-star hotel offers 93 elegant bedrooms and with its stylish waterfront feel, perfectly combines modern interior design whilst paying tribute to the impressive local culture that surrounds.
It offers wide-ranging catering options with two restaurants and two bars. And that’s not forgetting the Spa and Private Beach Club, a one-of-a-kind in the region.
Recognised by the Ramsar Convention as a Biological & Ecological Site since 2005, the Marchica Lagoon is one of the most important lagoons around the Mediterranean.
