“Beautifully decorated spacious and super comfi rooms”
The Riad is beautifully decorated, conveniently located near the Essaouria beach and port. Rooms are specious, service is great. The staff are amazing, ready to help at any point of time. Breakfast had limited options but good in taste. On my request they agreed for an early breakfast than their usual time.

“A beautiful place to stay”
What a stunning riad! The location was fantastic - in the medina but still quiet and peaceful with everything within walking distance. Our room was cosy and comfortable - we had a great night sleep. Breakfast on the terrace was lovely - such a great place to start the day. Great food and really attentive people. We ate dinner at the Riad’s pasta restaurant and the food and service there were also very good. We had a lovely welcome from Asma and Felix and felt right at home in this very special riad. It couldn’t have been better.

WOW. AMAZING. I rarely share reviews online, but this was one of the best experiences I've had at a stay across many countries. The night crew and Felix especially helped us troubleshoot through a shaky start to our trip, with canceled flights, transportation, and getting us to the Riad. Extremely helpful in providing recommendations, very delicious breakfasts, and an amazing vibe. Their cat Simba was equally lovely. I will vouch for my own family to come to this Riad, and that's my highest honor. I wish them all the best, and once again, THANK YOU FELIX FOR EVERYTHING.

“Fabulous comfortable Riad”
A lovely Riad in the heart of the medina. Close to everything but tucked away that it was quiet at night. Beautifully decorated and comfortable. We went in March so it was cold at night and very windy. They provided a heater which was very much needed. The bed was hard but they provided a mattress topper so we were more than comfortable. Malwa and Felix were very helpful. Liked the roof terrace and hot tub

“An adventure with stash of style.”
It’s a unique experience to live in such a stylish room and building. The breakfast service was really good and also the food served. The staff are extremely friendly. The bathroom is beautiful! The style of beddings, too. There were no cabinets but like wall shelves, deep holes where one can put things. It’s an adventurous furnishings.
