❤️❤️❤️ This place is magical! This magic is created by the location of the hotel, its atmospheric decor, delicious food, the wonderful energy of its caretaker - Julianna (a beautiful soul...) but above all the mission and idea that guides it. Julianna has a big heart and runs a sanctuary for dogs and three donkeys and a horse next to the hotel. Walking with the dogs gave us a lot of joy and that soothing feeling that you can do something good during your stay. I have traveled half the world, but I have never visited a place run in such balance and Love for people, animals, nature... No words can describe this experience. You have to feel it! I recommend it with all my heart ♥️ And if you are passionate about horse riding, do not hesitate for a moment. Julianna organized for me a "gallop of a lifetime" at sunset on a 20 km spectacular beach, 10 minutes from the hotel by car. Wonderful, beautiful, well-groomed horses, both physically and emotionally (which is rare in commercial studs in Arab countries). The man who trains them is a true virtuoso and passionist. We will definitely come back!!! Thank you, I am full of gratitude for this time😌✨✨💖💖💖

Oh, what a place! You will enjoy it here! It is an argan plantation with 10 riads scattered over a big piece of land. In the middle of it there is a restaurant and fantastic swimming pool. Lots of trees, beautiful flowers, friendly staff - makes this place a heaven. We were chilling at the pool and all of a sudden, two donkeys appeared. They roam free during the day so we gave them some apples. This is the place where people, animals and nature exist in harmony. Such a beautiful place to be. I would stay here for a month easily :) This place is the best for those who have a car although I suppose a local taxi to Essaouira is inexpensive. I can't recommend this place enough. You have to see it for yourself.

Everything! From the moment we arrived we were warmly welcomed by Salima. The rooms are spacious, comfortable and clean and all have a magnificent sea view either from the balcony or the rooftop. Food at the restaurant was great - the menu is changing every day with fresh produce and good variety (kudos to the kitchen team led by chef Nizar and the service team led by Redouane). Big thanks also to Soukaina for the hike recommendations - breathtaking views from the viewpoint and lovely trail. Great hospitality in an amazing secluded location. Will definitely come back!

Reception staff well trained concierge was outside the hotel to welcome the guests we arrived with a rental car. He took our luggage inside and then he took our car to their parking space. This was nice service reduced alot of looking for hotel parking place. The hotel manager is well trained on customer service and very good listening.

If you are looking for a tranquil place facing the ocean with a warm atmosphere do not lose time reading reviews. Reasons why to be in Auberge de la Plage: 1) best owners ever: a familiar warm atmosphere with an eye for details ( good music, fantastic common spaces…all very appreciated) 2) ocean sound from the room and best starred sky in town 3 ) very appreciated off the beaten track suggestions from the owners 4) perfect position 5) silence We booked 5 days here than we added immediately a couple more because it turned to be a magnificent place.

This is the most beautiful palace i have ever had the chance to stay in! It is almost like a royal palace. There was so much work put into every single little detail! The rooms and hotel are sublime and detailed from ground to ceiling!! The bathroom was like a real private spa with giant bathtub! There was unlimited hot water so no issue to fill the big tub! Sweet Noella at the counter is just one of the sweetest hosts we met on our Maroccan journey!

You know the feeling when something takes your breath away? That's the best way to describe this riad. Inside, it's a typical, compact, clean, and classic riad. But the view from the room is breathtaking, as is the view from the terrace and restaurant. An incredible place! Plus, comfortable beds, high-quality toiletries, delicious food, and impeccable service.

I chose this place for fresh seafood, as advertised.

I chose this place for fresh seafood, as advertised. What I had was an awful, almost-poisonous, life-threatening experience, as my fresh, chosen purchase of tiger prawns had been replaced by rotten ones by the fishmonger. It could have happened while I was struggling to count their foreign money out of my pocket. I ended up being in an embarrassing situation with the apartment owner when I cooked the prawns and polluted the whole building with a foul smell of rotten seafood. I chucked them all out in the bin, and I lost my appetite for the rest of my stay in Morocco. I should have listened to what my friends were saying about this place.

A hidden little gem!! The local people and the magical vibe of this place will stay in our hearts for along time! I accidentally booked our family to stay here instead of Essoauria and did not regret it for one minute. We loved it here and with our car we were able to drive to Essoauria easily.

There's some local shops about 7 mins from the hotel, but you would need a taxi/ car to visit. Quite basic shops/coffee places for a more authentic village experience, but the main attraction is Essaouira which is a further 10 mins by car.

The medina is lovely.

The medina is lovely. You can walk around freely with no one hassling you to come into their shop. The locals are lovely and so helpful. The variety of places to eat, have a coffee or just sit and watch are plentiful and its great to wander down all the narrow passageways and discover what is around the next corner. Its safe, easy to get around and Id return in a heartbeat. There is a main shopping street outside the medina where you can find the shops that sell alcohol and more fruit and vegetables. The port has an active fish market but there is fresh fish and a small fish market inside the medina too. The beach is lovely with sunbeds to rent and vendors walking up and down selling tea, biscuits etc. You get asked but you do not get harrassed. Its great.
