Breakfast was everything you need- croissants, bread jam, eggs if you want them, yogurt, cereal, orange juice, coffee. Location was lovely, a 15 minute stroll on the beach to the Medina. Supermarket is a 20 minute walk or a 5 minute (8 dirham) petite taxi ride away. Beach is literally across the street. Pool was lovely! Staff super helpful. 👏👏👏

EVERYthing about this property was wonderful from the moment we arrived. Our luggage was scooped up by a friendly staff member, we were served tea and sweets in a beautiful lounge and greeted by the manager with his orange scarf. All is top notch and delightful in all directions. Our room was beautiful and spacious. The inner garden and dining room is beautiful and the food was delicious and creative. Room service was quick and very accommodating. There were many nice amenities and the surrounding area was so much fun to explore day and night. We loved being near the sea and adventuring in the active fishing port. I highly recommend this property. The staff were so professional, helpful and friendly. There is a wonderful grace about this place.

I've stayed in more than 10 different riads/hotels in Essaouira and this is easily one of the best. It's very easy to get to and its close to everything, but not in the middle of the medina chaos. The lobby & restaurant are very chic, and the rooms are nice as well. The shower was very cute and the water was super hot. The room gets dark enough to sleep in, but also bright enough for make-up with or without the over head light.

FAQs about hotels in Essaouira

Morocco With a European Twist

Essaouira has developed from a hippie hangout to become a top Morocco beach resort with good surfing conditions. Its 18th-century medina is almost European in feel and narrow streets lead under low arches past fragrant spice stalls and local artisans selling everything from wood carvings to faience pottery.

Dotted around the souk are many traditional-style riads on Booking.com, hidden behind tiled façades and blue doors. Other Essaouira accommodation options include luxury hotels with swimming pools, cheap apartments, and B&Bs near Essaouira Airport.

Also bright blue are the rowing boats bobbing gently in small harbours sheltered by the Scala of the Port, a wide walkway with ramparts through which several historic cannons poke out. At the end is the Citadel, a small fortress overlooking Mogador Island - the largest of the Iles Purpuraires, so-called for the purple shells found in their rocks that were once used to produce dyes for Roman senator togas.

Another fortress – Bordj El Berod – lies in pieces on the long, sandy beach south of the marina. In the opposite direction the coastline is more rocky and lined by the Scala of the Kasbah, the crenellated walls protecting the medina. Horseriding and camel safaris are available on the beach and you can also visit a Berber village inland.

    At Cultural Morocco Tours, we highly recommend including Essaouira in your Moroccan journey. This charming coastal city, known as the “Pearl of the Atlantic,” offers a perfect blend of history, culture, and relaxation. Visitors can wander through its UNESCO-listed medina with whitewashed houses and blue shutters, explore the lively souks and artisan workshops, and enjoy the fresh Atlantic breeze along the city’s beautiful beach. Essaouira is also famous for its delicious seafood, vibrant music scene, and warm, laid-back atmosphere. Whether for a day trip or a few relaxing nights, Essaouira is an unforgettable stop that captures the essence of Morocco’s coastal charm. Cultural Morocco Tours

    Moroccan style of property (please note it's not a luxurious 5 star hotel, it's simple apartments with shared kitchen, but have a great charm and atmosphere, so if you want to enhance your stay by adding Moroccan flavours to it, this property is for you). Amazing view from roof top, and very helpful and looking after staff - Naziha was amazing, although she wasn't speaking English, we used translator and she was trying very hard to make our stay comfortable and pleasant. Shukran Naziha! 😍
