Ideal location inside the medina, close to the restaurants and markets and yet only 5mins from the beach. There is a large car park just outside the nearby gate. The riad has a lovely roof terrace looking out over the sea where breakfast is served, and a perfect place just to chill and read a book. Yassine, the manager, could not have been more attentive and any need is no problem. Served with a smile. Great place to stay and good value.

Everything was new and nice. I had the room on the top which I loved. Breakfast was delicious and Hicham was just amazing and helped with everything. Also the location is perfect, just a step away from everything, but really quiet. Will definitely stay there again when I come back.

A beautiful, traditional Riad which was full of authentic typical Morocco decor and lots of lovely green plants. Very nicely done rooms that were colorful and cosy. I'd absolutely want to come back and stay here again. The staff were very friendly and gave lots of great information too. The breakfast was delicious too, and plenty of it :)

Very friendly and helpful staff. Despite being located in a busy street of the Medina, when the doors of this riad opens, the noise stays out. The courtyard has some jungle vibes with beautiful plants hanging from the top floor. Breakfast is simple but fresh and good.

Amazing riad in a very central yet quiet location of Essaouira. Very tastefully designed with plenty of local art pieces. The owner is very friendly and makes you feel at home even when you are staying there for one night only (my case). Special kudos to the traditional moroccan breakfast on the terrace!
