Popular British YouTubers Ash and Kels recently embarked on a winter sun escape from the gloomy UK weather, heading to a destination just four hours away by plane. Their destination was Agadir in Morocco, a city experiencing highs of 24C in February, offering a perfect respite from the cold.
Affordable Winter Escape
The couple booked what they described as TUI's cheapest all-inclusive holiday package, staying at the Suneo Kenzi Europa Hotel. The total cost for both of them was an astonishingly low £366 for three nights. This comprehensive price included flights, airport transfers, accommodation, and the all-inclusive wristband for food and drinks. By travelling with hand luggage only, they avoided any additional baggage fees.
Flight and Hotel Experience
Departing from London's Gatwick Airport, the YouTubers noted that they did not fly with TUI directly, as the company sometimes uses partner airlines for its package deals. Despite this, they praised the flight timings, which allowed them to maximise their holiday time. Ash highlighted the convenience, stating, "We arrived with plenty of time to have food on our first night, and our return flight wasn't until one o'clock, giving us time for breakfast before leaving."
Kels echoed this sentiment, calling the flight schedule "ideal" and commending their newly-refurbished hotel room. However, Ash had a minor gripe about the in-room entertainment, mentioning that the smart TV did not allow internet access for streaming services like YouTube or Netflix, and only offered one English-speaking channel. He quickly added, "You don't come on holiday to watch TV, so that's just a minor point."
Hotel Amenities and Location
The Suneo Kenzi Europa Hotel, though described as quite small for a package holiday, impressed the couple with its facilities. Kels detailed the offerings, saying, "You've got three pools, water slides, an adult pool, and a kiddies pool. There are plenty of sunbeds, beautiful gardens, and trees—it's really nice." Ash appreciated the hotel's proximity to the promenade, noting it was just a couple of minutes' walk to the waterfront, perfect for sunset strolls on the flat, scenic path.
Overall Impressions
After three days of basking in the winter sun, both YouTubers spoke glowingly about their experience in Agadir. They emphasised the value for money and the opportunity to escape the horrendous British weather. The combination of affordable pricing, convenient flight times, and pleasant hotel amenities made this TUI package a standout choice for a quick winter getaway.
As Morocco continues to grow as a tourist hotspot, this review highlights how budget-friendly options can still deliver a memorable and sunny retreat, even in the colder months. For those seeking Mediterranean beauty without the crowds, Agadir proves to be an increasingly attractive destination.
