Beautiful, very comfort and calm place to stay. You can feel that the owners thought about your experience and carefully selected each single detail in the room and riad. I will remember this place and definitely come back when in Essaouira. Wish the owners best of luck and kind and intelligent guests like they are themselves.

We loved everything about this lovely place! The garden area is very cozy, and our room was clean and nice, yet a bit small. Breakfast was delicious and the staff very friendly.

We had an absolutely wonderful time at this hotel! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality. The ambiance is elegant and beautifully reflects the rich Moroccan culture, with incredible attention to detail in every aspect. A special thank you to the manager, Youssef whose professionalism, kindness, and attentiveness made our stay even more enjoyable. In addition, the entire staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. Whether at the front desk, the restaurant, or housekeeping, every team member greeted us with a smile and ensured that we felt at home. Their hospitality made all the difference in our experience. The food was also fantastic—breakfast was delicious and included traditional Moroccan pancakes, fresh juice, and the best mint tea! Overall, this hotel not only provides a beautiful and comfortable stay but also has a team that genuinely cares about its guests and delivers outstanding service. We will definitely return in the futur!
