    Lovely cozy riad in a central and safe area of the medina. Everything about our stay here was just perfect: the room was very tidy and comfortable, the host is a wonderfully kind lady who know how to make guests at home. Special mention to the terrace, from where you can enjoy the breakfast looking at the ocean.

    This is truly a Marrocan run riad. very beautiful (lok at photos). The rooms are beautiful and decorated in typical Moroccan style. Breakfasts on a beautiful and sunny terrace It's a few minutes' walk to the main street market ine the heart of medina. I highly recommend it's a very good choice.

    I can't really think of anything - we were really happy with our stay there.

    This is an atmospheric riad (with an inner courtyard) in a small side street of the medina. The rooms, and the interior of the house itself, are stylish and colorful. It was a pleasure to sit on the roof terrace in the evening and to have breakfast there in the morning. The breakfast itself was simple but good, including real orange juice. The hosts were fantastic, very kind and attentive.

    My wife is sensitive to strong smells. The oil in the candle in the room was too strong. It was placed in the room with the best of intentions, but some people’s asthma can be triggered by strong perfumes

    The location is wonderful - in a quiet part of the Medina very close to the beach. Our room was lovely, the floors beautifully decorated and the rooftop terrace excellent for relaxing on and a great place to eat breakfast (which was delicious).

    WiFi was unreliable. The WiFi signal for nextdoor was more often detected than the house we were in. As all the research/bookings are done online, it is essential.

    Location fantastic, quiet, not too hard to find. Attentive host. Bags of character. Breakfast on the terrace.

    The location is fantastic and the Riad beautifully looked after. We enjoyed two nights here in Essaouira and our room was comfortable, clean and smelled of essential oils. This is indeed a welcoming touch as some Moroccan properties suffer from a light smell from the sewerage. Not here! The Riad is decorated colourfully with beautiful old photographs as well as colourful paintings on the walls, as well as traditional clothing adorning the walls. Colourful communal seating areas on all floors and a shared terrace for all rooms of the Riad where breakfast is served each morning.

    Very traditional look with art, furniture and loved the huge terrace on top deck . Two levels with lots of different options. Main reason why we selected this traditional Riyad. Also in a quiet part of the ancient Medina close to the parking lot and away from all the bars and noisy part of the Medina. Could hear the crashing waves all night😀. Very quiet.

    There was no airconditioning, but it wasn't too hot and the seabreeze cooled the room quite well. I have no complaints beyond this honestly. We had a great stay.

    The Riad is well situated in a quiet corner of the medina. We had a wonderful, large room which was well-decorated and received a cool sea breeze through the window. The breakfast was very good, but the main selling point was the staff. We were delayed and arrived very late, but the owner waited for us and received us very kindly. Even when we woke up too late for breakfast, they still gave us something to eat. Highly recommend this place!
