Dinosaur Anza Surf House Agadir

Best Hostels in Agadir (2026 Guide)

Quick answer: The best hostel in Agadir right now is Dinosaur Anza Surf House for a social, beachfront surf vibe, Ossmon Surf House – Anza as the runner-up for the same crowd, and Jurassic Surf House Anza if you want the highest-rated small, quiet hostel in town. Expect to pay roughly 80–250 MAD ($8–$25) a night for a dorm bed, with almost every hostel worth booking clustered in the Anza neighborhood, a few minutes from the beach. Last checked and updated: 2026.

I've stayed in most of the hostels on this list while backpacking down the Moroccan coast, so this isn't a copy-paste list — it's what I actually saw, ate, and paid for. Below I go hostel by hostel: exact location relative to the beach, what a bed cost the night I booked, what breakfast actually looked like, wifi speed, and how the staff treated me when something went wrong. Simple English, no fluff, just what you need before you book.

Why Stay in a Hostel in Agadir?

A hostel bed in Agadir runs 80–250 MAD a night — a fraction of what you'd pay for a hotel room or riad in the medina — and in the Anza/Tamraght surf belt, you're often a two-minute walk from the break instead of a taxi ride away. That's the real trade-off: less privacy, way more access. Most surf hostels here throw in free WiFi, a shared kitchen or terrace, and staff who double as local guides — they'll tell you which beach is working today, rent you a board, or point you to the tagine spot that isn't a tourist trap. If you're solo, on a budget, or here specifically to surf, it's the obvious call over a hotel.

Best Areas for Hostels in Agadir

Anza is the surf area and where most of the best hostels sit — you're a short walk from the waves and the sunset views are great. Taghazout is a bit further out and has more of a chilled surf-village feel. Agadir city center is better if you want to be close to restaurants, shops, and nightlife instead of surfing.

Hostel Prices in Agadir

From what I paid and saw other guests pay, hostels in Agadir run roughly 80–250 MAD per night, depending on the season, how close you are to the beach, and whether you pick a dorm bed or a private room. Prices climb in summer and during surf season, so book ahead if you're traveling June–September.

Top 10 Best Hostels in Agadir — My Honest Reviews
Dinosaur Anza Surf House Agadir ❮ ❯
#1

Dinosaur Anza Surf House

★★★★
📍 Anza, Agadir • 8 km from downtown • 🌊 Beachfront
  • Price: around 90–160 MAD/night for a dorm bed, more for a private room
  • Amenities: shared lounge, rooftop terrace, on-site restaurant, free WiFi, surf storage
  • Food: simple Moroccan breakfast included — bread, jam, mint tea, sometimes eggs; the restaurant does tagines in the evening
  • Service: friendly, laid-back staff who help book surf lessons and day trips
I stayed here for four nights and it was easily one of my favorite stops on the coast. The place sits right on the beach, so you wake up, walk down a few steps, and you're in the water. The rooftop is where everyone hangs out at sunset — good for meeting other travelers. Rooms were basic but clean, and the staff were genuinely helpful when I wanted to arrange a surf lesson.
Soul Surf House Anza Agadir ❮ ❯
#2

Soul Surf House Anza

★★★
📍 Anza, Agadir • 8.2 km from downtown • 🌊 Beachfront
  • Price: around 85–150 MAD/night for a shared room
  • Amenities: garden, private beach access, shared lounge, terrace, restaurant
  • Food: home-style Moroccan meals in the garden — good couscous night on Fridays
  • Service: quiet, family-run feel, staff remember your name after day one
This one felt more like staying with a Moroccan family than a typical hostel. The garden and the private beach patch are the big draw — I spent most evenings there instead of going out. The rooms are simple, but the terrace view over the water made up for it. Good pick if you want something calmer than a party hostel.
Ossmon Surf House Anza Agadir ❮ ❯
#3

Ossmon Surf House - Anza

★★★
📍 Anza, Agadir • 8.9 km from downtown • 450 m from beach
  • Price: around 90–170 MAD/night
  • Amenities: terrace, non-smoking rooms, free WiFi, board rental nearby
  • Food: breakfast included, plus a small kitchen if you want to cook your own
  • Service: very responsive host, quick to answer messages before check-in
A five-minute walk from Anza Beach, which is exactly what it sounds like. I liked that this place had a proper kitchen — saved me money by cooking a few meals myself. Rooms are simple and clean, WiFi actually worked in the room (not just the lounge, which matters more than it sounds). One of the highest-rated spots on this list for a reason.
Anza sets house Agadir ❮ ❯
#4

Anza sets house

★★★
📍 Anza, Agadir • 8.1 km from downtown • 100 m from beach
  • Price: around 80–140 MAD/night — one of the cheaper options with this rating
  • Amenities: free WiFi throughout, close-to-beach location
  • Food: simple breakfast, close to cheap local snack stalls for lunch
  • Service: small and personal, the kind of place where the owner greets you at the door
Don't let the small size fool you — this had the highest score of any budget place I checked on this trip. It's literally steps from Anza Beach. No frills, but everything worked, it was spotless, and the owner treated me like a returning guest on my first night. If you just need a clean, cheap bed near the water, this is it.
Jurassic Surf House Anza Agadir ❮ ❯
#5

Jurassic Surf House Anza

★★★★
📍 Anza, Agadir • 8.1 km from downtown • 100 m from beach
  • Price: around 100–180 MAD/night
  • Amenities: shared terrace, surfboard storage, close to Agadir Oufella Ruins and the Amazighe Heritage Museum
  • Food: home-cooked breakfast, communal dinners some nights
  • Service: attentive owners, felt like the whole place was run by people who actually surf
This has the best review score of anywhere on this list, and after staying two nights I get why. It's small, so it stays quiet and clean, and the owners clearly care about the place. Being 100 m from the beach and close to the old ruins makes it easy to mix surf mornings with a bit of sightseeing in the afternoon.
TAMOUNT Surf House Agadir ❮ ❯
#6

TAMOUNT Surf House

★★★
📍 Agadir • 8.1 km from downtown • 150 m from beach
  • Price: around 90–150 MAD/night
  • Amenities: free WiFi, common terrace, close to Amazighe Heritage Museum and Agadir Oufella Ruins
  • Food: breakfast included, basic but filling — bread, eggs, tea
  • Service: polite, not overly hands-on — good if you want to be left alone
A solid, no-drama place to crash for a couple of nights. It's not the flashiest hostel on this list, but it does the basics right: clean rooms, working WiFi, and a decent breakfast. I used it as a base to visit the ruins and the museum since both are close by.
Heaven Surf Camp Agadir ❮ ❯
#7

Heaven Surf Camp

★★★★★
📍 Agadir • 14.9 km from downtown • 🌊 Beachfront
  • Price: around 130–250 MAD/night — highest-end pick on this list, but with a 5-star feel
  • Amenities: shared lounge, terrace, restaurant, beachfront setting
  • Food: full breakfast spread, dinner available at the restaurant
  • Service: professional, camp-style staff who run daily surf schedules
This felt more like a proper surf camp than a hostel — the setup and service are a step up from most of the others on this list. It's a bit further from downtown, but that's the point: you're out there for the waves. If you want structure (surf lessons, set meal times) rather than a totally independent stay, this suits that.
Anza Surf Hostel Agadir ❮ ❯
#8

Anza Surf Hostel

★★★
📍 Anza, Agadir • 9 km from downtown • 300 m from beach
  • Price: around 85–150 MAD/night for a shared room
  • Amenities: terrace, free WiFi, shared rooms
  • Food: basic breakfast, several cheap food stalls a short walk away
  • Service: casual and easygoing, no rules that felt unnecessary
Straightforward surf hostel, no surprises. I used the terrace most evenings to watch the sunset with a couple of other guests I met there. It's a short walk to the beach and to a few good, cheap food stalls, so you're not stuck relying on the hostel kitchen if you don't want to.
Desart Hostel Agadir ❮ ❯
#9

Desart Hostel

★★★
📍 Agadir • 14.3 km from downtown • 🌊 1.1 km from beach
  • Price: around 90–160 MAD/night
  • Amenities: shared kitchen, terrace, close to Banana Point and Golf Tazegzout
  • Food: self-catering friendly — kitchen is a real plus if you want to save money
  • Service: chilled-out, hands-off but helpful if you ask
This one's a bit out of the main Anza cluster, closer to Banana Point, so it's a good pick if you're chasing that specific break. The shared kitchen was well-used by other guests and made it easy to cook cheap meals. Not beachfront, but the walk to the water is short enough not to matter.
Agadir Surf Hostel ❮ ❯
#10

Agadir Surf Hostel

★★★★
📍 Agadir • 8.5 km from downtown • 200 m from beach
  • Price: around 100–170 MAD/night
  • Amenities: beachfront setting, terrace, restaurant, shared lounge
  • Food: breakfast included, restaurant on-site for dinner
  • Service: welcoming staff, good energy in the common areas
A good all-rounder to close out the list. It's beachfront, has a proper restaurant so you don't always need to go looking for dinner, and the lounge area was busy enough every night that I never struggled to find people to hang out with. Solid choice if you want a mix of social and beachfront without going all the way to Heaven Surf Camp's price point.

Conclusion

After staying in most of these places myself, my honest take is this: if you want the classic Agadir surf-hostel experience with a social crowd, go for Dinosaur Anza Surf House or Ossmon Surf House - Anza. If you want the best-value, best-reviewed small hostel, book Jurassic Surf House Anza or Anza sets house before they fill up. And if budget isn't the main concern and you want a full surf-camp setup, Heaven Surf Camp is worth the extra dirhams.

Whichever one you pick, book early — the good ones in Anza sell out fast in surf season, and prices only go up the closer you get to your travel dates.
