We were amazed by the beautiful place that is Riad Yanitri. It's honestly a little paradise! Perfect for a relaxed and fun time out. The rooms were very clean, the staff extremely welcoming and friendly. Also there is a spectacular petanque court. One of the most beautiful accomodations we've stayed at. Thank you :)

We could not have loved our stay at Riad al Manara more. Not only was it the most beautiful riad we stayed at during our time in Morocco, but the staff went above and beyond in making sure we had everything we needed. We felt so taken care of. You will not find a more beautiful, welcoming place to stay.

Hands down one of the loveliest, pint-sized riads where we stayed in the Essaouira area. A good number of the places to hang your hat near Essaouira are owned and run by haughty French colonials and we’ve been very disappointed over and over again about how poorly and disrespectfully many of these proprietors treat their Moroccan staff. This was definitely NOT the case here, we are happy to say! It felt like one big family. Daniel the proprietor is an absolute doll. An utterly charming and genuinely a good egg. Kudos all around! Be sure to go for the delicious seafood dinner while you’re here. We will be back and bring our friends and fam!

    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!
