Sol Oasis Marrakech All Inclusive Resort Review

Honest Review of Sol Oasis Marrakech

As Gold Reward Members with Melia, we were thrilled to spend five nights at the Sol Oasis. Our stay was booked through British Airways Holidays, which offered a double-tier point benefit when booking directly. This was an excellent opportunity to earn 480 tier points for British Airways Executive Club Gold Status.

There was a bit of trepidation as the hotel was only four-star and all-inclusive, but we were hopeful as it had a good rating on Tripadvisor.

Location

The Sol Oasis All-Inclusive Hotel in Marrakech is on the city’s outskirts, about half an hour’s drive from Marrakech Menara Airport, the bustling Medina, and famous attractions like Jemaa el-Fnaa. It offers a blend of modern and traditional Moroccan architecture.

Hotel Services & Facilities

The hotel offers a 24-hour reception and an ATM in the lobby. As with most all-inclusive hotels, there is daily and evening entertainment if that’s your thing.

You can unwind by the outdoor pool (heated in the winter months), let the kids have a blast at the kids club, stay active at the gym and tennis court, and grab a quick bite at the snack bar.

Check-in

Upon arrival, be prepared for the daily Tourism and City Tax, which amounts to about 73 Moroccan Dirham or £5.80 daily. Unfortunately, this caused a bottleneck during the check-in process at Sol Oasis Marrakech.

Despite arriving on time, we waited longer than expected to access our room. The staff seemed a bit disorganised, which added to the frustration of the experience.

Sol Room

Our experience in the Sol Room was a bit of a rollercoaster. The room was smaller than we had hoped, but credit where it’s due, it was kept spick and span. The furniture had seen better days, and the bathroom cried out for a little TLC.

Storage space was limited, so if you plan a longer stay, you might want to get cosy with your suitcase. The minibar didn’t offer any soft or alcoholic drinks, but they did keep us topped up with bottled water—a small but thoughtful touch.

The double bed wasn’t precisely cloud-like, but we slept okay. There was also a TV on the wall, although we never did get around to switching it on.

The bathroom had a decent enough shower and

However, on a positive note, the area outside Room 2202 was fantastic. A small bistro table and chairs were outside the room, and because the room was on the first floor, there was additional space to sit, enjoy a drink, and watch the entertainment from afar at night.

Restaurants & Bars

The food at Sol Oasis Marrakech left much to be desired. The menu was repetitive, offering the same dishes day after day, and the quality was subpar. We found ourselves seeking meals outside the hotel to enjoy a more varied and satisfying dining experience.
