Yes. Casablanca Mohammed V has the most — several airline and pay-per-use lounges, plenty of shops, cafes and duty-free. Marrakech, Fes, Tangier and Agadir each have at least one lounge (often Priority Pass or pay-on-the-day) plus cafes, duty-free and ATMs. Facilities are decent but more limited at the smaller airports.
Moroccan airports are better equipped than some visitors expect, though the level varies a lot by airport. Casablanca Mohammed V, as the big international hub, has the fullest spread: multiple lounges including Royal Air Maroc’s and independent pay-per-use ones, a good range of shops and duty-free airside, several cafes and restaurants, and the longest opening hours. If you have a lounge membership or a Priority Pass, Casablanca is where it earns its keep, especially on a longer connection.
The smaller airports are perfectly comfortable but more modest. Marrakech Menara has at least one airside lounge (usually accessible on Priority Pass or by paying at the door), decent duty-free, cafes and shops — fine for a pre-flight coffee and some last-minute argan oil. Fes, Tangier and Agadir each typically have a single lounge plus a cafe, a small duty-free and the basics; do not expect a sprawling food court at these, so eat before security if you are picky or travelling with hungry children.
Across all of them you will reliably find ATMs and currency exchange (handy for offloading or topping up dirhams before you fly), free wifi that ranges from fine to flaky, prayer rooms, and basic seating. Duty-free at the bigger airports stocks the usual spirits, perfume and tobacco plus Moroccan specialities — argan oil, spices, sweets — though I would buy your serious souvenirs in the souks rather than airside, where prices are higher and the choice narrower.
My honest guidance: if a lounge matters to you, check in advance whether your airport and card give you access and whether it is worth it — at the smaller airports a single café and the lounge are much of a muchness, and the lounge mainly buys you a quieter seat and a free drink. Pay-on-the-day lounge access is usually available even without membership. And use up your remaining dirhams before you leave, since they are awkward to change outside Morocco; spend them on water, snacks or duty-free rather than carrying them home.
