This property was perfectly located. Near to the car parks outside the walls but within walking distance to all the markets, alleys, shops and restaurants. The breakfast was the best breakfast we had the whole trip and we have been up and down the whole coast. The view from the rooftop at breakfast was exceptional. The staff were incredibly friendly and kind and could not do enough. The bath was amazing and relaxing and they kindly lit a fire for the cool evening. We cannot wait to come back.

A Perfect Escape in Essaouira! We absolutely loved our stay at Mama Lova! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel so welcome – check-in was a breeze, and we instantly felt right at home. Each morning started with a fantastic breakfast spread, full of delicious options that kept us happily fueled for a day of exploring. And let me tell you, the beds were so comfortable! We ended up sleeping a solid 10 hours the first night, which is unusual for us – a true testament to how cozy it was. The rooftop was something special, with incredible views over the city – honestly, I think it’s the best view in all of Essaouira. We spent so much time up there just soaking it all in. The hotel’s location couldn’t have been better either; we were close to everything, making it easy to stroll around and enjoy all the charm of the city. The entire property was spotless, well-kept, and had such a lovely, welcoming feel – and for a very reasonable price too! Our room was not only impeccably clean and cozy, but it was also well soundproofed, which gave us a peaceful retreat at the end of each day. Even the water pressure was excellent – a small detail, but it really added to the comfort! The Wi-Fi worked perfectly everywhere, right up to the rooftop, which made it easy to stay connected while enjoying those stunning views. Mama Lova is one of those places that you leave already wanting to come back. For anyone looking for a friendly, beautiful place to stay in Essaouira, I couldn’t recommend it more. We left with happy hearts, big smiles, and can’t wait to return!

Huge shout out to Hamid and Zara! The kindest people on the planet! Always smiling and happy to help! Organised out trip to the dromedaries and horse rides at the Ranch Diabat, where we saw the most beautiful sunset! The King Suite overlooking the ocean was unique and full of character. Coming in and out of the Riad felt like home, with Hamid and Zara welcoming us every time! Their recommendations for local restaurants and real traditional experiences around the Medina were always in spot! We always knew where to go! This is definitely a must if you’re ever in Essaouira!!

Warm and considerate service ．Kind and sincere ．When leaving I left my stuff in the room. They found it and called my driver and we returned. They were waiting outside the old town gate to hand it over to us. They have a kind and sincere character.This is very quiet place. I like this place.
