Where to stay in Tetouan: areas and local tips
Tetouan has many faces. The Medina lives from its history, the Ensanche is comfortable and European, and the nearby coast offers family beach or discreet luxury.
The Medina, to fall for the city
Narrow streets, riads with courtyards and very little traffic. If you want to experience Tetouan for real, this is your area.
The Ensanche, for comfort
Cafés, restaurants and parking options. A solid base if you're driving or working from your stay.
The coast: Martil, M'diq and Cabo Negro
For families and summer. Each has its own character — Martil lively, M'diq more balanced, Cabo Negro premium.
