This beautiful new boutique hotel is stunningly designed, with every detail carefully thought through and perfectly in harmony. The architecture blends seamlessly into the peaceful countryside, and the interior décor is refined and consistent throughout. The Tamegroute pottery in particular added such a unique touch. The palm tree-lined driveway creates a sense of grandeur as you arrive. From the terrace, the views of the surrounding landscape are simply breathtaking. The pool is delightful: the water temperature was just right, and the sun loungers were comfortable. We stayed in the most basic (and therefore cheapest) room, but it was absolutely perfect: beautifully decorated, a comfortable bed, and a fantastic shower. This is the ideal place to escape the busy work life and truly relax. Some other reviewers mentioned the access road, but we honestly don’t understand the complaints. It’s just a typical Moroccan gravel side road, easily manageable if you drive slowly – as you should anyway, since you often come across goat herds on the way! The food is delicious; not an extensive menu, but that makes perfect sense for such a small-scale hotel where guests often dine in Essaouira. This way, every meal is fresh and nothing goes to waste. The tajines were outstanding, cooked with love, and the breakfasts were a real treat too: different types of pancakes, bread, a freshly made omelette. What really sets this hotel apart is the wonderful staff. We have traveled to Morocco before and know the warmth of Moroccan hospitality, but the kindness and genuine care of this team were truly exceptional. During our stay, nothing was ever too much trouble. Each staff member, in their own way, went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and cared for, and they did it from the heart! They also had a wonderful team spirit among themselves, which made us feel like part of the Zayyna family. Saying goodbye was genuinely difficult.

Riad Tammam

Essaouira

Set 11 km from Golf de Mogador, Riad Tammam offers air-conditioned accommodation with a patio. This guest house features a pool with a view, a garden and free private parking.

The Riad is located in a quiet area and you can really relax there, yet you only need 20 min by car to Essaouira if you want to grab some food or to Sidi Kaouki if you want to go surfing. The rooms and the house in general are big, bright and beautiful. It's really special because it doesn't feel like a hotel but more like a home. The staff is very welcoming and helpful. We definitely will come back again!

The Hosts were an absolute delight ! Always happy to help with a smile. The place is gorgeous, the amount of effort put into decoration and all the little details everywhere is astonishing. We also had dinner at the property, food was delicious from start to finish. The place feels more like a home away from home rather than a guest house. Would absolutely recommend.

Wonderful setting in a quiet area between Val d'Argan and Essaouira. The place is a quiet oasis run by the owner and his team in a relaxed but attentive way. Breakfast by the pool or dinner... every need is catered for... plus there is secure parking on site. If you want to see Essaouira it is about 20 mins away and there is also secure paring in front of the souk. Make sure you also visit the winery in Val d'Argan - a very special place!

We could not have had a better stay! The Tamayourt is a secluded Riad about 10 minutes drive from Essaouira. Everything about this place is perfect. Quiet, incredible, friendly and attentive staff, especially the owner Maryam who is a ray of sunshine, exceedingly helpful and an amazing chef. The days we ate here all day were the best food we had on our whole trip. The garden and art pieces are stunning, and the heated pool has been the best swims we’ve had. As hard workers, we wanted a total relaxation of a holiday and Tamayourt provided that and more.

Our second stay at Libert'Art, after three years, felt like returning to cherished friends and family. The embrace of Yves and Caro, the hosts, with their ever-present warmth, companionship, and unwavering helpfulness, remains a beacon of hospitality that defines our stay. Their enthralling life stories and captivating conversations have become an integral part of our experience, leaving us enriched after each encounter. The ambiance of Libert'Art is nothing short of exquisite. Everywhere, the exquisite touch of the artist's soul is palpable. The rooms are clean and comfortable. The garden, with friendly animals and relaxing installations, offers a serene countryside experience. The breakfast is a delightful surprise every morning. Thank you, Yves and Caro, for everything. You have created a beautiful sanctuary in which we can't wait to come back.
