Villa Maroc was a very special place on or trip. First, Essaouira itself was fantastic - a beautiful and diverse coastal city with cooler temperatures than interior cities. The medina had many options for food - including truly outstanding Italian at Silvestro’s and Spanish tapas at Dar Baba - and the merchants were relatively low key with many prices marked, reducing the haggle factor. Villa Maroc was very accessible but a short (quiet) walk from the most active parts of the Medina. Our room was spacious and well decorated, and there are many nooks and sitting areas throughout the hotel, including a bar with a fireplace and a chess table. The food was outstanding, the hammam and massage services excellent, and the staff super helpful. They helped me prepare a box of stuff to mail home, and even went with me to the post office to make sure I knew what I was doing. We cannot recommend this Riad more highly.

We had a family suite and booked bed and breakfast and dined in the restaurant as and when we wished. It was just wonderful. You feel the stress and worry melt away as soon as you enter, such a calm and peaceful riad ... but with the beach and watersports a stones throw away if you want some action.

Great location. Hotel is wonderful. Very charming. Many little public rooms where you can hang out. Excellent service from Fatima. She’s been at the property for over a decade and went out of her way to help us out. If you’re staying here, definitely check out the Jardin property. Beautiful pool, amazing lunch.

Breakfast was lovely with something a little different every day, we took our breakfast on the beautiful rooftop with stunning views. Our suite was beautiful, comfortable and stylish. Good shower. The staff were excellent, friendly and discreet. Reception was friendly and very efficient. I go to Essaouira for the wonderful vibe, the incredibly friendly people, great no hassle shopping, and very cool, cafes's bars and restaurants. There is nowhere like Essaouira.
