Marrakech and Merzouga are full for New Year’s: bookings reach record levels

In Marrakech, the influx is described as exceptional. A manager of a hotel unit notes that the pace of bookings has accelerated considerably since the beginning of December, after a relatively calm month of November. The ochre city should be fully booked for New Year’s Eve, a trend that concerns both luxury hotels and riads and guest houses. Professionals, who prepared early by increasing their reception capacities, attribute this vitality to the diversity of the entertainment offer as well as the stabilization of the post-Covid global situation.

The Merzouga desert confirms its international appeal

The Drâa-Tafilalet region, and specifically the Merzouga desert, is experiencing a similar dynamic. The president of the Regional Association of the Hotel Industry confirms a clear increase in bookings, illustrating the growing importance of the destination on the tourism map. He highlights the credibility of the local offer and the quality of the services, the result of close collaboration between tourism stakeholders and the authorities to improve infrastructure.

Professionals in the region, which is now ranked fifth nationally, anticipate an exceptional year 2025. They are betting on the unique natural assets and cultural identity of the territory to continue to attract a growing number of visitors and consolidate the profitability of the sector.
