I had a fantastic stay - the manager was so kind and helpful and the location was fantastic. I worked from the central area 2 of the days I was there, and the wifi worked really well. Also, as a solo traveler it was a good place to meet people. Highly recommend!

Hospitality raised to the level of art I read the very good reviews and decided to book this riad, but it exceeded my expectations. The riad is recently renovated, everything is new and tasteful. Located in the center of the medina. But what really makes it special compared to other locations is the kindness of the hostess, Said is at your disposal at any time, offering good advice and whatever you want. The breakfast served on the terrace of the riad is delicious and different every day, special thanks to Myriam who delighted us every morning with delicious Moroccan pancakes. What can I say, I recommend anyone to visit this riad

What a hidden gem! But the real treasure here is the people. From the moment we arrived, we felt incredibly welcome—no request was too much, and every interaction was met with a warm smile. The breakfast was delicious, the rooms beautifully designed and impeccably clean. Whether you're looking for a peaceful retreat or the perfect starting point to explore Essaouira and its surroundings, this is the place to be. Highly recommended!

Our stay at Riad Titima was wonderful! We would happily recommend Riad Titima to anyone looking for a comfortable, friendly, warm and qualitative place to stay just outside of Essaouira. The Riad itself is beautiful, with a pool and very well-kept garden full of hibiscus and olive trees (and a turtle!). The rooms were spacious, clean and tastefully decorated. Good shower with plenty of hot water and a proper baby bed for our daughter! Also, your babyfoon will have reception in the dining area, which is nice. Daniel was a very gracious and attentive host, with an eye for details and good tips for different fun restaurants and activities. Amina is a wonderful cook, both the breakfast and the (3 course!) dinners were excellent and plentiful. Zakaria and Fatima were very attentive and kind. Our daughter took a great liking to Fatima and she was super sweet to her! In short, it felt like home, only way better. We hope to return soon and wish everyone at Riad Titima the very best.

    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!
