For short trips like our 4 night stay in Marrakech I use a black Easyjet zip up under seat bag - it's super lightweight and meets size regulations for most airlines. I really dislike those small cases on wheels, they are a trip hazard to other people and take up far too much room in overhead lockers. My bag is soft so will squeeze into the bag guage at check-in even when crammed. Hubby takes a similar size gym bag.
For Marrakech I packed 1 maxi kaftan, 1 maxi wrap skirt, 1 long chino skirt, 3 long sleeve blouses, 1 midi skirt, 1 black t-shirt, 1 black/wool wrap, 1 pair flat leather sandals, 1 orange maxi cover up, 1 black swimsuit, 1 foldable hat, undies (2 changes/wash at night) and 2 leather belts one wide, one narrow. I flat leather sandals.
I wore denim leggings, long sleeve navy jersey shirt, wool wrap and trainers on the flights. If I am short of space on the return after buying souvenirs, I can wear a things over this.
Toiletries: I keep small 100ml bottles and refill them they are enough for 4 days, this size can go in hand luggage. I take shampoo and conditioner, Body Shop CBD oil for my face (mature skin, recently discontinued so stocked up when it got reduced to a fiver a bottle,)), toothbrush and paste I don't use foundation makeup, i dislike it. I use eyebrow, eye and lip pencils, blush and lipstick. Hubby carries the decanted Calypso once a day sun lotion and after sun, his shaver and toothbrush.
We take paper cups for our toothbrushes and keep them in the wardrobe away from crawlies. We leave the barhroom light on at night as cockroaches prefer to come out in the dark. .
Electricals: We share a phone charger and email ahead to hotels to check which plug we need. Some have usb outlets.
Fact Finding: we check the hotel website and Tripadvisor forum reviews for pictures so we can get a feel of the layout of the hotel before we arrive.
