“Simple, comfy room and a decent breakfast.”
Friendly owner and manager. Very comfy bed and a good breakfast. Handy instructions to help find the place too which was not too hard. Short walk to the main area of the Medina and the port but far enough away that you are not kept awake by street noises which can be a mid mad in the centre. Would have stayed some extra nights if they had availability. Would certainly stay again.

I've stayed in Essaouira before and it is not easy to find accommodation, that isn't damp or smelling of mold. This one was absolutely not! Everything dry and clean, my room was warm and spacious and the Riad radiates tranquility in the busy medina. All the staff was super lovely and the breakfast fresh & tasty everyday. Would definitely stay here again on my next visit!

Everything you need, you will find here. And if you don’t, you only need to ask. And Yannis is truly the best host. His warmth, patience and generosity made Essaouira a very special trip for me. I went to Morocco knowing nobody and have come back with a superb friend.

This place is comfortable and has good/clean facilities, I loved that it's in the middle of the Medina, it has a very cosy feeling. But what makes this place special is the staff, particularly Youssef who went above and beyond to make us feel like home. From detailed instructions on how to find the place, to recommendations around Hamam places, to even personally arranging for a lost item to be returned safely to us. I highly recommend this place for itself and for its people.

In the medina near the car park. Nice place but the rooms on the ground floor are right in the entrance. Not good if you want to sleep until late in the morning as clients will have breakfast right outside your room. Very friendly staff

The staff were lovely - very friendly and helpful. The riad was clean and well appointed, and breakfasts were good. There was no a/c in our room; Essaouira was warmer than we expected in the daytime, but cool at night, so we were okay. The little upper bedroom area was perfect for the kids.

“Very nice”
Our stay at the Riad was wonderful, peaceful, charming, and full of character, the localisation is at heart of the medina. The staff were welcoming, and Youssef was especially kind and helpful, making our visit even more enjoyable. Highly recommend!

“Had a pleasant stay, big rooms shared kitchen!”
Very nice central location. Super clear instructions upon arrival on how to find the place and where to park our car. Breakfast was basic but good, served on the rooftop. Family double room was quite spacious, beds were big and comfortable. Note that the kitchen is shared with the other guests (one on the ground floor and one at the rooftop).

“Nice place at a perfect location”
A nice guesthouse in the middle of the Medina. Lots of restaurants at walking distance. Breakfast was good (like most Moroccan breakfasts) on the rooftop terras, which was nice. The staff was very friendly; we felt very welcome. The room was bright, nothing too special but quiet and functional for having a good night sleep. Overall a good experience.
