Your Yorkshire Wedding - Mar/Apr 2020 (Issue 41)

I f, like me and my husband, you want to spend your holiday ticking off activities but your partner wants to lounge by the pool, then Mazagan Beach and Golf Resort in Morocco might just be your ideal honeymoon destination. Year-round sun: tick. Action- packed activities: tick. Fun with the kids: tick. Luxury: tick – there’s not much this place doesn’t offer. And it’s not by accident. Everything is meticulously planned and designed to cater to your every need within its 250 hectares of paradise. A snappy three-hour flight, plus a one-hour transfer from Casablanca Airport, and you’ll find yourself winding down Mazagan’s grand driveway and seeing the resort emerging from its lush grounds in all of its decadent Moorish glory. As the only destination of its kind in Morocco, you might just find yourself rubbing shoulders with royalty and celebrities – I’m basically BFFs with Dougie from McFly now. You can expect to find traditional Moroccan influences alongside contemporary luxe – think ornately carved doors, colourful lanterns, textured rugs and mosaic tiles. There are 13 restaurants and bars, a huge spa, the most glamorous gym imaginable, an 18-hole golf course and North Africa’s biggest casino.  STAY It’s always a little disorienting arriving somewhere after dark, and the stylish but seemingly endless corridors of Mazagan heightened the confusion. I didn’t need to worry; within a couple of minutes, a friendly chap with a walkie-talkie (who had clearly been sent to find the lost Englishwoman with too much luggage) was guiding me to my room. This was the level of service I came to expect here. Once inside, I was met with the most enormous marshmallowy bed, a spacious bathroom and floor-to-ceiling windows – in Hannah Faulder discovers that whatever you want from your honeymoon, you can find it at Mazagan Beach and Golf Resort in Morocco magic MOROCCAN 96
