This was by far the best place we have stayed at during our trip to Morocco. The place is absolutely stunning, the room super big and comfortable, the staff very friendly. The owners were also there each day which made it really nice and personal and they went out of their way to help us - from making arrangements for our small baby to actually coming down to help us when we had car trouble in the middle of nowhere! We will for sure come back ❤️

Karina was such a lovely host. She upgraded us to a much larger room. She made us reservations at several restaurants we requested, and made wonderful recommendations of what to see and do. We had a lovely roof top breakfast, with delicious eggs, fruit and assortment of condiments. Highly recommend Mama Lova

    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!
