Where do I even begin!! This place was SPECTACULAR. Right on the beach. The whole entire apartment is so colorfully decorated, as if you’re staying with a local. You just walk out and you are in the main square. The view of the ocean when you wake up is magnificent.

Really nice Riad with cosy and modern interior design. I loved the room and the shared spaces. The toiletries were very nice touch. The riad manager and team were very kind and professional. They even helped us to organize and send our laundry to cleaning. Location was also very central. I would recommend 100%.

Essaouira is probably my favorite town in Morocco. The people here are not as pushy as those in Marrakech for example. Overall the vibe is much more relaxed and I guess the beach makes the people calmer. This hotel is located in what I would say the most perfect location in Essaouira. It’s right in between the main souqs, the beach promenade, and the picturesque port area. None of these 3 is too far for a comfortable walk. I always start from the souqs for late lunch, then the port area for late afternoon, then the beach promenade for sunset. There are good seafood restaurants by the beach to have dinner. The hotel has a huge rooftop terrace overlooking the ocean and the view is gorgeous anytime of the day. My room was so spacious with high ceiling. Breakfast was amazing and wifi worked perfectly. The staff here were also nice and welcoming. The best part for me is the hammam massage spa downstairs. I had one of the best massages in my life in this spa called Mumtaz Mahal.
