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.

A pleasant though very windy place. A charming medina.
A pleasant though very windy place. A charming medina. Good restaurants and plenty of fresh fish. Definitely worth having a hire car. Some lovely upmarket hotels/spas in the surrounding countryside.Guest review byHenryUnited Kingdom - 10.0

A big (and much cooler) contrast to Marrakech, Essaouira is a very traditional Berber town, but much smaller, but with lots of good eating options, (no alcohol in most!) The souk is lovely with lots of choice for everything, and the beach area very nice, but being on the Atlantic, prone to wind. We spent our 2nd evening on the sea front watching the sun go down and enjoying fresh sardines - a nice 2 day stop over.Guest review bySusanUnited Kingdom - 10.0
Mix of old town, port and beach.
Mix of old town, port and beach. In danger of becoming a little overrun with tourists during day. All felt very safe. Loads of usual souk shops - especially notable are the wood ones (Thuya). Large gently sloping beach, good for watersports. Don't miss the port - very active during day - buy some fish and get it cooked nearby very cheaply, but can get very busy (and chaotic!). Wide range of restaurants, recommend the Ocean Vagabond at far end of beach. Taros bar is liveliest place, but drinks pricey. Note of caution : We did get get some food poisoning, difficult to be precise, but seemed to stem from one meal at a 'good' restaurant ( I won't name and shame as cannot be totally sure !?) , probably from a salad or fruit dessert ?Guest review byPaulUnited Kingdom - 8.0

The Medina has combined very Moroccan local life with international life styles. People can find many restaurants and cafes supplying international food and alcohol. It is a place people can stroll around and sit drinking all the day.Guest review by高XJChina - 8.0

Very lay back and peaceful, people very humble and welcoming,the beach is clean and safe for strolls or working out, best place for art and craft lovers,downsides are food prices. Some places are way over their heads with prices considering a small town.Guest review byAarab - 10.0

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 ToursGuest review byCultural moroccoMorocco
