Tangier's pool day pass scene is small but split across a useful range. Le Tanger Résidence Hôtelière anchors the budget end with a straightforward two-pool pass, while Hilton Tangier Al Houara Resort & Spa and Fairmont Tazi Palace Tangier sit further out of the city on the Atlantic coast with resort-style grounds. El Minzah Hotel is the city-centre option, a historic property with two pools a short walk from the medina.
Confirmed prices run from 300 MAD (about $30) at Le Tanger to a cited 1,300 MAD (about $130) at Fairmont Tazi Palace. Hilton sits in between at 500 MAD for adults, and El Minzah promotes a pool pass with lunch on its own social channels but hasn't published a price online.
Only Le Tanger has a dedicated day-pass webpage with bookable pricing. The others advertise access through phone calls or social media, so confirm the current rate before you go, especially at Fairmont, where the day pass appears to run seasonally rather than year-round.
- Le Tanger Résidence Hôtelière (300 MAD / about $30). Two outdoor pools with a Mediterranean view, the only property with confirmed online pricing.
- Hilton Tangier Al Houara Resort & Spa (500 MAD / about $50). Resort pools on the Atlantic coast west of the city.
- Fairmont Tazi Palace Tangier (about 1,300 MAD / about $130). The top-tier option, with a 2,500m² spa and pool bar credit, seasonal availability.
- El Minzah Hotel (price on request). Historic city-centre hotel with two pools and a pool-plus-lunch pass.

How much does a pool day pass in Tangier cost?
Prices span roughly 300 to 1,300 MAD. Le Tanger is the only confirmed, bookable rate; the rest are priced from social media or editorial sources and worth a phone call to confirm before you visit.
| Hotel | Price | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Le Tanger Résidence Hôtelière | 300 MAD (about $30) adult and child | Confirmed online pricing |

Do I need to book a pool day pass in Tangier in advance?
Booking ahead is a good idea, though the process differs by hotel. Le Tanger Résidence Hôtelière takes online bookings through its own site, so reserving a day or two in advance secures a lounger. Hilton Tangier Al Houara and Fairmont Tazi Palace promote their passes through phone and social media rather than instant booking, so a call the day before is the safest route, particularly in July and August when both resorts run near capacity. El Minzah Hotel doesn't list a booking page for its pool pass, so a phone call is the only way to confirm space and price.
Can non-guests use hotel pools in Tangier?
Yes, at all four hotels on this list, though only Le Tanger publishes its terms online. Hilton Tangier Al Houara and El Minzah Hotel both promote non-guest pool access through their own Facebook and Instagram pages rather than a formal webpage. Fairmont Tazi Palace has advertised a seasonal day pass in past summers, so check directly whether it's running before you plan a visit around it.
Where to stay in Tangier
For atmosphere, base yourself in the old Medina, where narrow lanes wind past markets and cafés down toward the port. Riad Dar Saba is a stylish boutique riad near Bab Al Bahr with views across the Strait, and it puts you within walking distance of everything in the old town.
If you'd rather trade the medina's bustle for something quieter, the Kasbah sits just above it with the same views and a calmer pace. Hotel Nord Pinus occupies a former Portuguese-era building up there and pairs kasbah charm with a proper luxury stay.
For something more modern and convenient, the Ville Nouvelle has the city's widest choice of standard hotels, wide boulevards, and easy access to transport links, a good pick if you're only in Tangier for a day or two.
Le Tanger Résidence Hôtelière
Le Tanger Résidence Hôtelière sits above the coast at M'nar, with two outdoor pools looking out over the Mediterranean toward the Strait of Gibraltar.
The Pool Day pass costs 300 MAD (about $30) for both adults and children, covering access to both pools between 10am and 7pm, towels, deck chairs, changing rooms, and a welcome beverage on arrival. A seasonal fruit basket can be added for 150 MAD.
The property is wheelchair accessible, and loungers are assigned first-come, so arriving earlier in the day secures the better spots.

Hilton Tangier Al Houara Resort & Spa is set on the Atlantic coast at Al Houara, about a 20-minute drive west of central Tangier, with resort-style grounds built around its pool deck.
The Pool Day Pass costs 500 MAD (about $50) for adults and 250 MAD (about $25) for children, including loungers, towels, and access to drinks and snacks poolside. Pricing is promoted through the hotel's own Facebook page rather than a booking site, so confirm the rate by phone before heading out.
The coastal location means a car or taxi is worth arranging in advance, since the resort sits outside easy walking distance from the city centre.

Fairmont Tazi Palace Tangier
Fairmont Tazi Palace Tangier occupies a former royal palace above the city, with landscaped grounds and a main pool that runs seasonally from April to October alongside a separate vitality pool inside the spa.
A Summer Day Pass has previously been advertised at around 1,300 MAD (about $130) per person, covering main-pool access plus a 600 MAD credit at the pool bar, with entry to the 2,500m² spa. This offer wasn't listed on the hotel's current offers page at the time of research, so it may run only during peak summer months. Confirm with the hotel before planning a visit around it.
For groups, the resort has also offered a private pool buyout for up to 8 guests at 5,500 MAD, useful for a family or friend group wanting exclusive use.

El Minzah Hotel
El Minzah Hotel is a historic property in the city centre, a short walk from the medina, with two pools and panoramic views over the bay.
The hotel promotes a Pass Piscine through its own Instagram and Facebook pages that bundles pool access with lunch and drinks, though the current price isn't published on its website. Pool hours run 10am to 6pm. Call ahead to confirm the rate and what's included before booking.
The wellness centre attached to the pools includes a sauna, hammam, and hot tub, worth asking about when you call, since some of these may be bundled into the pass or available as an add-on.

Frequently asked questions
Are pool day passes available in Tangier year-round?
Le Tanger and El Minzah Hotel operate year-round, though pool hours run shorter in winter. Fairmont Tazi Palace's main pool is seasonal, open April to October, and its day pass has historically only appeared as a summer promotion. Hilton Tangier Al Houara keeps its pools open year-round but confirm by phone outside peak season, since deck capacity can vary.
What should I bring to a hotel pool day in Tangier?
Bring a swimsuit, sunscreen, and a light cover-up, since some hotels expect modest dress in shared or restaurant areas near the pool. Le Tanger and Hilton both include towels and loungers with the pass. At El Minzah, check when you call whether towels are provided or need to be requested separately.
Is there a well-known Tangier hotel that doesn't offer pool day passes?
Golden Tulip Farah Tanger and Idou Malabata Beach and Spa both have well-regarded pools but don't advertise non-guest day access online or through social media. If you want to try, a phone call to the front desk is the only way to find out whether they'll make an exception.
