Luxury Surfing in Morocco?

Couldn't find a Morocco Master Thread - can anybody recommend a high end surf resort? I am a novice but would like to spend a week or two learning how to surf. I understand April/May are the best months, and Safi is the most popular surf town, but can't find any info on luxury resorts

There is a Cheval Blanc, I'm sure some bloggers rate it luxury😉

On the coast is La Sultana Qualida which writes something on its homepage about surfing. Seems to be the nearest to luxury.

Been scouring the web and this was all i found.
Picture #6 finally convinced me the riad is not owned by M. Arnault

It was a joke ("some bloggers..."). There are several hotels called Cheval Blanc with no connection to the ones you had in mind. This one is a very simple one.
