EL JADIDA, MOROCCO, Oct 31, 2009 / — The romance of Casablanca in today’s setting, Mazagan Beach Resort held its reception party last night, with the official gala opening slated tonight.

Located 90km south of Casablanca, the Mazagan Beach Resort is a brand new unique coastal destination resort overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, and the latest project of hotel owner Sol Kerzner of Kerzner International.

With 500 rooms, 18-hole golf course designed by Gary Player, a 7km stretch of beach, luxury boutiques, eight restaurants, casino, nightclub, a spa and one of the largest conference centres in the region, the resort offers a brand new golf and spa destination in a previously unexplored region of Morocco that benefits from an all year round temperate climate and is just three hours from London.

Mazagan Beach Resort is located close to the traditional Portuguese port towns of El Jadida (a UNESCO World Heritage site) and Azemmour. Guests can get a flavour of true Morocco by shopping at the food and crafts markets, exploring the souks and perfectly preserved medina, then getting lost and found in the maze of narrow lanes.
