This was the splurge of our two-week trip to Morocco. The decor was a bit over-the-top for me, but it was beautifully done, quite luxurious, and very comfortable, plus there was a lift! Breakfast on the terrace the first morning resulted in cold food, but we ate in the lounge the second morning and all was fine. Essaouira is fantastic... More

We enjoyed It so much, and thought It was the best place we have stayed in morocco. From being shown our room we thought it was great. superbly decorated.

We just loved this place; looks like a movie set. It's a bit over the top but that is exactly what appealed to me. I found this on the internet by accident before the trip and was able to book the room I wanted in advance from the photos. The location is great, the riad is clean and quiet with... More

The decorations are explicit and rich. It has 3 floors with a tiny lift. We stayed in a room facing the alleyway. Big... More

I stumbled upon this riad even though I was booked elsewhere. I fell in love with the decor and realized the room was actually cheaper than the hotel I had booked. Stayed 4 nights. BEAUTIFUL, romantic rooms (there are 10 chambers) with huge beds, bath and lovely lovely staff. The breakfast is also very, very well done. Consists of fruit... More

I got here by a lucky coincidence - I went in to ask for directions and stayed, although I had planned to stay somewhere else. Phenomenal room decor. Everything is done with a lot of thought and a lot of love. Rooms and hamam are absolutely amazing. Riad was almost empty - looks like the word hasn't spread yet. The... More
