Perfect place as a base in Essaouira. Close to the Medina, port, many quiet beaches around, arganneries, etc... Lots of areas in the villa to nap and relax. Fantastic hosts which made all the difference in our trip.

“Wonderful hosts, an oasis of calm and a real home from home”
We had the best time, wonderful hosts and staff. Can't wait to return!! We will brush up on our French so we can communicate more easily as everyone speaks French there. Villa Daba is just perfect for an off the beaten track trip. Fantastic family run resturant in walking distance and a few cafes a short drive away plus in 15 mins by car you are in the heart of Essouira. The donkeys, tortoises and beautiful garden are all part of the magic of this place. The pool is also very refreshing and everything is so clean thanks to the lovely cleaning staff who did an amazing job of making our room lovely every day. We spent a week there and didnt want to leave! Special thanks to Mohammad for putting up with our wild children for a week, he couldn't do enough for us. We felt part of the family there and that's thanks to the warm welcome and hosts checking in every day with how we were and making such a fuss over our girls (2 and 5). We are so grateful!! We hope to visit again very soon!! Natalie and Nick (Enna and Lyra)

Didier and Bernadette were very friendly and attentive hosts. The garden and pool areas are very tranquil and the hammam is lovely. The villa has interesting and very tasteful Africa-themed decor. Villa Daba is an oasis of peace and tranquility and we left feeling rested and restored.

“Nice relaxing place to start or end your Moroccan trip”
Comfortable rooms with a very individual character; relaxing pool and balcony/terrace, good breakfast. Good parking place at the premises. Nice cooperative KAPCIM nearby (few minutes walk) for nice souvenirs and a nice restaurant. Note: no airconditioning as it is not necessary because the temperature is very nice during evening/night

“Must go! Best place in Marocco.”
Everything was great, location, owners, swimming pool, breakfast ... If you want to recharge your batteries, relax in peace, this is the Best place to stay. We have been in Marroco 11days, slept in 6 different comodities, and this is far the Best!!
