Essaouira Hotels

I took a surfing lesson there. My small group and I had a splendid 2 hours lesson. All the basics were provided, including how to catch a wave.

I really enjoyed my stay at Yousurf Surf House (although I'm not surfing;-). The accomodation is clean — so are the sheets/covers.

Fabulous location in the heart of Essaouira with easy access to a multitude of restaurants, cafes and shops and within an easy walk to the beach, port and ramparts.

Magical seclusion, an utterly perfect place to stay in Essaouira. Hayat and her team run an impeccable place with warmth and grace.

We had such a wonderful time at Riad Baladin. It’s the perfect place to stay while in Essaouira. The Riad is so beautiful and location is great.

We stayed at Riad Baladin a week ago and had a wonderful experience. It's a beautiful and authentic place, full of character. Great location. Great service.

A beautiful Riad that’s a perfect distance to everything you need but also tucked in a nice quaint corner where all you can hear are the waves.

We visited 5 Riads before choosing to stay at Riad Mimouna: it offers the best value for money considering the ocean front view, the interior style, the location, and its 4-star.

We loved our stay at Dar Afram. Nazha and Sadia looked after us very well. Lovely rooftop and cosy rooms.

We had the most amazing stay at Dar Afram!

This hotel is incredible value for money. It’s beautifully appointed and the staff (especially Hammed) and breakfast are lovely. My only gripe is with its location.

Amazing! The staff were very friendly and so helpful, giving us great recommendations for places to eat/watch the euros and preparing breakfast for us early to accommodate for our morning flight on

Perfect location to explore the medina and still very quiet. The hotel is small and very special, with great attention to every detail. We stayed in a room n the last floor.

It was perfect! There were about 14 bedrooms, ours was lovely, and most others looked great too. All individually decorated. The place was spotless and was constantly being cleaned.

Gorgeous hotel with amazing service. Only 10 rooms makes the experience very intimate and meaningful. The hotel is right on the water so you can hear the waves of the ocean all the time.

We had the most amazing food and service here.

Very friendly staff who made us feel at home at all times.

My daughter (4) and I stayed in the Marjana triple room for three nights. We both really enjoyed our stay.

One of the best place we stayed in Morocco. Isn’t that cheap but worth the money.
I’m quite not sure why there are few negative reviews but we did have amazing time here.

Excellent Riad in the heart of the medina within easy walking distance to the port, beach and shopping areas. Staff are warm, welcoming and keen to ensure your stay is the very best.

A very lovely hotel away from the main drag of Essaouira. Staff are superb and breakfast very generous. Room was great and hotel beautifully decorated.

Beautiful property with garden and pool. Not the closest to the Medina but a great location next to the beach. Quick taxi or easy 30 min walk. Nice clean, comfortable, and big room with good lighting.

Amazing Riad for a stay.
From the greeting and introduction all the way through our stay was great.
Akeem was very helpful with recommendations.
Great breakfast with different plates each morning.

Everything was just perfect. From the location to their amazing food and fine details of the riad, everything was just perfect.

In one word: perfect. For once you have a riad with outward facing windows and not dark and cramped.

We spent 1 night in this riad after a few intense days in the Marrakesh region.

The hotel is located in the medina, which was perfect for exploring the area. Despite the central location, it was very quiet at night. Our room was clean and breakfast was included and enjoyable.

Brilliantly located on the edge of the medina. Walking distance of all sights and eateries.
A small boutique hotel with five rooms. Comfortable beds, Wi-Fi, Nice continental breakfast.

Wonderful place, outside the medina. Quiet, wonderful breakfast, Nadia the owner gave so good service (you're a star), and a nice (20-25 min) walk to the medina (or a 10 MAD taxi tide).

The Riad was really beautiful and we got a nice big room. The hosts Nadia and Thierry also gave us some good recommendations.

Stay here! All the reviews show why and extremely good value for a perfect location. Rooftop breakfast is great and til 11.30. Sun trap for yoga sleep chill. Thanks Clemente & staff, see you again ✌🏻

Such a beautiful Riad right in the heart of the Madina. The hospitality was amazing, lovely breakfast each morning and great views from the rooftop terrace.

Love love loved our experience at Perle D'Eau! Ismaail took great care of us during our stay and all the staff we encountered were very warm and welcoming.

I really enjoyed my stay in Riad Perle d’Eau in Essaouira — it is beautiful, nicely located in Medina, the service of staff is amazing, they are helpful and kind! I relaxed so much staying there.

This riad is well-built and well-located, clean and adequately appointed, but it falls short in service.

The hotel is super good, we spent 5 days there, the rooftop is so good and the breakfast is super nice prepared with fresh ingredients from the one and the only AMINA with the biggest smile, I’m sure

Gorgeous Riad with spacious and clean rooms. The views from our room and the building top are spectacular we were right on the edge of the old city wall looking toward the ocean and the sunset!

The good:
The stay was good, the breakfast was amazing. Stayed here for 2 nights. The rooms were clean. The staff was super friendly. Only riad who kept water in the room.

This was one of my favorite riads that we stayed in. Greeted by smiling, welcoming staff and a cuddly house cat, Mimi. Our room was a nice size and tastefully decorated.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I had a wonderful experience at Riad Rouad Rayhane in Essaouira!

Had three nights in this superb riad in Essaouira where the staff couldn't have been more welcoming or helpful. All rooms were well furnished, comfortable and spacious.

Very nice Riad in Essaouira. Close enough to the entrance to the Medina (especially from the Supratours bus station) where you can find it and take your luggage in without too much difficulty.

Wished I had stayed longer.
This hotel is perfectly situated close to everything. Very modern with a lovely terrace overlooking the beach.

A perfect stay in the Mogador Suite – highly recommended!
We stayed in August as a family of four in the Mogador Suite, and it was absolutely ideal – spacious, stylish and met all our needs.

I stayed here with my partner for a long weekend to celebrate my 60th birthday.

We had an excellent stay in the top floor room. The staff was kind and helpful answering all of our questions. The breakfast was delicious.

We traveled across Morocco, from the north to the south.
Essaouira was our last stop before we flew back home.

Absolutely incredible location. Right near the water, but still in the middle of the Medina. Such a grand experience and we were well taken care of by the staff.

Our three-night stay at the riad was absolutely wonderful. Our host Juliette was incredibly kind and welcoming, and we truly enjoyed the lovely conversations we had with her.

What a great experience to stay at Riad Mazal Mogador. The rooms, service en location was perfect and the staff was so kind. We will come back again!
