Access to the property was not clear or easy to find on first arrival. It was also in a tunnel that was smelly (cats are everywhere) Once inside the riad it was very nice and easy to find once you know.

We had the suite which could fit more than two people but it was a treat to have a completely separate sitting area and our own terrace with ocean views. Bedroom was also huge and a decent shower. The roads communal areas were very nice.

I have nothing bad to say about Dar Loulema. It is worth mentioning though that the riad is nearby a roof top cocktail bar so it can get a bit noisy at night and might disturb early sleepers. I was so tired of my days that it did not personally bother me. Furthermore, it seems to be pretty common in most of Morocco’s touristy cities. 😅

Dar Loulema is a lovely and beautiful riad with view on the sea on the rooftop. The bedroom was beautifully decorated and it looks exactly like on the pictures. Staff were nice and accommodating. Breakfast was delicious and generous (it literally fed me for the day) and there is a nice terrace on the third and fourth floor to relax and sunbath.

Only difficult was initially finding the property upon arriving. Most likely our fault for not saving an offline map prior to arriving in the city.

Wonderful service, fabulous breakfast and stunning room! The hosts couldn’t help us enough, and made it such a special stay.

The property is perfect in many ways you can forgive the nightly music from next door. We had no problem sleeping with some good ear plugs.

The location is superb right on the edge of the old town looking out to sea. The staff as always were all brilliant. The morning breakfast is the best.

The staff is very welcome and friendly. The riad is in a great place and it's very beautiful from inside.

The room smelled like humidity and the entrance to the Dar also smelled very bad.

The room was big, and well decorated, the location was the best close by the port, the downtown and a decent walking distance from the beach

can be a bit noisy in the morning at the ground floor. staff should be more considerate.

great location, in the centre of medina, but quiet and with amazing ocean terrace view.

Little bit hard to find (to get to the entrance you need to pass through a tunnel that never smelled nicely).

Pleasant Dar in the city centre of Essaouira. Lovely rooms in morroccan style with cozy bathroom. My family and me enjoyed rich breakfast and pleasantness of manager and staff. We wanted to do some extra outdoor activities - manager arranged everything for us quickly and efficiently.

The staff is really nice. Everything is clean and the view from the roof top terrace is stunning. The Riad is located in the center of the which makes it comfortable to quickly come home during day trips in the city. The breakfast was delicious and also had good portions. We will definitely come here again!

The internet was pretty weak, it cut out a lot.

Dar Loulema is very close to the water, it has a great view of the ocean from the rooftop terrace. The staff were friendly and supportive.

A lot of reviews here mention that there is a bar exceptionally close which is quite noisy. It’s the baseline which may annoy. We were offered ear plugs, but we didn’t take them, didn’t need them. Slept like a baby.

Not too tricky to find, very central for everything. Wonderful double layered roof terrace (with 🐫🤔). Bed was comfy, room was small but really lovely. Shower was more than adequate (and I’m fussy). Lovely welcome, great manager and the ladies delightful. The breakfast was the best we had experienced in the two weeks we have been on the road. Would definitely return if we are ever in the area. Also, thank you so much for letting us use the roof terrace whilst we were waiting for our afternoon bus.

We loved everything!

We really loved this place! The entrance seem a bit scary at first, in the tunnels under the buildings, but we never had any issues. When entering, this amazin place appears. It seems more like a riad than a dar, with the big garden in the middle, opening up towards the sky. There is a cozy room at the ground floor, where a fire was lit (guess they serve breakfast on rainy days). There is also a nice roof terrace on the top floors, where you can relax, have breakfast, enjoy the beautiful views over the ocean and the city. We had a suite with a bedroom and two sofa beds, spanning over two floors. We also had a private terrace with sun beds and chairs, it was amazing. We also had a double room which was nice, but it was quite dark due to it being on the 2nd floor. When we decided to stay one extra night we had to leave our suite, and got a new double room on the 3rd floor, it was a lot brighter. Breakfast was great, with tea, coffee, fresh juice, baguette, pain au chocolat, pancake, fruit salad... Served on the terrace. Location is excellent, in the medina, close to the main square and only a few minutes walk to a big parking and the beach.

The bar next door was very noisy and annoying. The loud music and the sound of seagulls on the roof was not great. The room smelled like mould.

The view from the room was fantastic, the furniture was very nice, the room was decorated well and the staff were very friendly. The balcony, the sound of the waves and the ability to watch the sunset were wonderful
