EVERYthing about this property was wonderful from the moment we arrived. Our luggage was scooped up by a friendly staff member, we were served tea and sweets in a beautiful lounge and greeted by the manager with his orange scarf. All is top notch and delightful in all directions. Our room was beautiful and spacious. The inner garden and dining room is beautiful and the food was delicious and creative. Room service was quick and very accommodating. There were many nice amenities and the surrounding area was so much fun to explore day and night. We loved being near the sea and adventuring in the active fishing port. I highly recommend this property. The staff were so professional, helpful and friendly. There is a wonderful grace about this place.

Honestly, I don't think this hotel could have gotten any better, it's right on the beach, it was only an 8 min walk from the bus stop from Marrakech, about an 8 min walk to restaurants, and 10 mins from the medina. We were so fortunate to get upgraded to an ocean view room and we absolutely loved it and spent so much time on the balcony and enjoyed a few sunsets out there too. The wifi was good, the room was clean, the breakfast that was included was a great spread with a fresh omelette station, and bed's were comfy, what else could you ask for?!

FAQs about hotels in Essaouira

Morocco With a European Twist

Essaouira has developed from a hippie hangout to become a top Morocco beach resort with good surfing conditions. Its 18th-century medina is almost European in feel and narrow streets lead under low arches past fragrant spice stalls and local artisans selling everything from wood carvings to faience pottery.

Dotted around the souk are many traditional-style riads on Booking.com, hidden behind tiled façades and blue doors. Other Essaouira accommodation options include luxury hotels with swimming pools, cheap apartments, and B&Bs near Essaouira Airport.

Also bright blue are the rowing boats bobbing gently in small harbours sheltered by the Scala of the Port, a wide walkway with ramparts through which several historic cannons poke out. At the end is the Citadel, a small fortress overlooking Mogador Island - the largest of the Iles Purpuraires, so-called for the purple shells found in their rocks that were once used to produce dyes for Roman senator togas.

Another fortress – Bordj El Berod – lies in pieces on the long, sandy beach south of the marina. In the opposite direction the coastline is more rocky and lined by the Scala of the Kasbah, the crenellated walls protecting the medina. Horseriding and camel safaris are available on the beach and you can also visit a Berber village inland.

A cool ocean town with good vibes remaining.

A cool ocean town with good vibes remaining. Nice live music on the main square. Large beach with many opportunities to try kite surfing and surfing. Too bad that there is not a bit more respect for the surroundings as there is trash all around, but that is unfortunately fairly typical of Morocco.

I have been there for a 50th birthday weekend. The place is absolutely perfect for this type of event. The Medina is beautiful, easy to walk around and full of restaurants. Our weekend has been organised beautifully by https://www.castlesinthesand.com, a friend of ours. We did camel rides, lunch in the beach with drummers playing until the sunset, surf in the morning, lunch in the farm outside Essaouira. Marvellous

Honestly not the prettiest place I’ve been.

Honestly not the prettiest place I’ve been. The Berber horses were incredible and very well looked after though. Definitely ride on the beach if you can. I didn’t really feel much else of interest to do. Very few flights to the airport but our return via Marrakesh with three hour drive was affordable and not too bad.

It is the authentic Morocco for sure.

It is the authentic Morocco for sure. Personally we were unimpressed and extremely disappointed as there is very little to see or do. Being used to a high level of cleanliness and hygiene in eating establishments, the local way of life was not for us. However for the more adventurous it is certainly an experience! Moroccan culture and traditions are evident in the town and outlaying villages. I am sure lots would love it but sadly not us.

Fantastic location in Morocco - and I would say my favorite...

Fantastic location in Morocco - and I would say my favorite place I went to during the trip. Located right next to the Atlantic ocean, the views were amazing especially during sunset. The vibe of the medina was distinctly different from that of Marrakech and Fes as well, much calmer and less chaotic which I appreciated after the intense few days in the other cities. Definitely a chiller and more comfortable vibe throughout.

Essaouira was one of the highlights of our trip to Morocco.

Essaouira was one of the highlights of our trip to Morocco. We loved the relaxed atmosphere, the beautiful medina, the harbor, the long beach and especially the mix of Moroccan, Portuguese and coastal influences. It feels much calmer and easier to explore than Marrakech, and simply wandering through the narrow streets, stopping for coffee or food and watching everyday life was part of the experience. The wind can be quite strong, particularly along the beach, but that is very much part of Essaouira’s character. We would happily return and would recommend spending several days here rather than treating it as just a day trip from Marrakech.

Exceptionally clean. A really beautiful looking hotel. The local stray animals are so well looked after. The lovely ladies on reception and restaurant staff are very polite and kind. A small walk away from beach front activities and restaurants. Nice, fresh, fairly priced food at the restaurant. We had the pleasure of staying during Ramadan and it was a beautiful experience to see staff praying, having Iftar meals together. A real sense of community and family.

The hotel is located on a quiet street with easy street side parking. The ground floor interior is very impressive if you like the old-fashioned traditional "mausoleum"style. The old town itself is probably the best we visited, and we went to most of the major cities.
