The staff were absolutely amazing. They took such great care of us, from delicious breakfast and mint tea to keeping our room spotless. They even helped us practice our Arabic. The location was perfect, right in the heart of the medina.

Stunningly beautiful. Warm welcome from arrival. All the rooms were well equipped and attractively presented. We had dinner 2 nights. The mechoui was excellent (a first for us!) and both coucous and tagine were very good.

Very welcoming and friendly stuff! They were always around ready to help you! The riad is a mix of old and neo modern style! The room specious and has everything you need! But most of all they have one of the best freshly home made breakfast of any riad we have visited in our 10days trip in Morocco.

This property was perfectly located. Near to the car parks outside the walls but within walking distance to all the markets, alleys, shops and restaurants. The breakfast was the best breakfast we had the whole trip and we have been up and down the whole coast. The view from the rooftop at breakfast was exceptional. The staff were incredibly friendly and kind and could not do enough. The bath was amazing and relaxing and they kindly lit a fire for the cool evening. We cannot wait to come back.

A beautiful, traditional Riad which was full of authentic typical Morocco decor and lots of lovely green plants. Very nicely done rooms that were colorful and cosy. I'd absolutely want to come back and stay here again. The staff were very friendly and gave lots of great information too. The breakfast was delicious too, and plenty of it :)

Very friendly and helpful staff. Despite being located in a busy street of the Medina, when the doors of this riad opens, the noise stays out. The courtyard has some jungle vibes with beautiful plants hanging from the top floor. Breakfast is simple but fresh and good.

Amazing riad in a very central yet quiet location of Essaouira. Very tastefully designed with plenty of local art pieces. The owner is very friendly and makes you feel at home even when you are staying there for one night only (my case). Special kudos to the traditional moroccan breakfast on the terrace!
