Not a lot to say but reiterate all previous positive comments. Had an enjoyable stay with excellent hosts. Situated just inside Medina with easy access to beach and restaurants.Should you have any walking difficulties, best to request a lower floor room. As with many Riads there are lots of stairs.

We had a great stay here. Lovely staff, beautiful room and a delicious breakfast. The riad is beautifully decorated and Wafaa was kind of enough to explain...

We had a great stay here. Lovely staff, beautiful room and a delicious breakfast. The riad is beautifully decorated and Wafaa was kind of enough to explain the medina to us as well as give us some recommendations for places to eat and things to see when we arrived, over some delicious mint tea! We stayed in the Toureg room for 4 nights which we absolutely loved, we only we wish we could have stayed for longer!

We arrived in Essaouira on a Supratours bus from Marrakech and had been sent (upon booking) a map with directions to the Riad which was extremely useful....

We arrived in Essaouira on a Supratours bus from Marrakech and had been sent (upon booking) a map with directions to the Riad which was extremely useful. It’s a short, flat 10mins walk from the bus station. The Riad is located in an alleyway off a main street and once you get your bearings it is easy to find. We were greeted with huge smiles and a warm welcome which was really nice. Reception is open until 7pm but there are emergency phone numbers and a phone left in reception in case you need to use it. We had to let the Riad know what time we were arriving in advance. It’s also worth noting that payment for you room is in cash. You have two keys – one to your room and one to the front door to come and go as you please. The location of this Riad was excellent – right in the heart of the medina and a short walk to the port area and to the beach. Lots of restaurants close by. The staff were very helpful at providing a map, marking out restaurant recommendations (and one’s to avoid) and places of interest. Breakfast was served in the common area from 8:30am – 10:30am and was delicious on both mornings that we stayed – omelette, breads, pancakes, honey, jams, yoghurt, plus a hot drink and freshly squeezed orange juice. The lady who served it was a lovely, polite lady. The room we stayed in was called the ‘Sahara’ - it took a few attempts at trying to lock it successfully but once we knew how to do it it was easy. The room was adequate in size for our needs, the bed was comfortable and bathroom functional. It was a little bit dark and stuffy, so we slept with the window open which helped. I would take some ear plugs as you can hear the noise. Towels were provided daily and the room/bathroom was very clean. WiFi was ok.I was delighted at the welcoming and friendly feel this Riad had. They were so helpful printing off our boarding passes which I really appreciated. The service was excellent!! The location is perfect. For those on a budget or just looking for some great Moroccan hospitality – look no further, this was a great place to stay!

We stayed only one night here, and were greeted by Giovanni and Lara (hosts) with big smiles. Giovanni was very helpful in getting us oriented to Essaouria and showed us the important places to go. The room we stayed in was the taureg on the third floor and it was very clean and nicely decorated. No issues with hot water, although the seat toilet needs to be fixed. There is a nice terrace at the top of the building as well. Upon leaving, my partner was feeling ill and Lara promptly offered us to have a late checkout. The most welcoming hosts, perfect location to see everything in Essaouria, and a very nice place to stay.
