Riad vacation rentals in Essaouira

Dear Laure, Thank you for a great stay. How beautiful and in a lovely balance with lovely Essaouira! Your recommendation for dinners at home was really a great idea, and what an experience with dedicated chefs who really know their way! It is only recommended to try. We just had the best time, all 8 days. In your lovely house, you really get to relax and feel the atmosphere by the sea. Greetings from a happy and grateful Danish Family Birk, Helle, Theis, Maria, Mads, Maui, Obi, Sven and Peter

It was an amazing riad! A little hard to figure out where it is at first, yet the location is fantastic, and most of all, the riad was amazing. The ocean view is great with so many bedrooms! My friends and I absolutely loved this place!

Central in the medina of Essaouira is a beautiful apartment on the first floor with two bedrooms, spacious living room and decent sanitary facilities. From the roof terrace you have a view of the sea, you do need good legs to climb four high, but the view is worth it. Some extra chairs and a table on the roof terrace would provide a nice added value. Very friendly and flexible host who shifted and thought along smoothly. From here you can go anywhere in the medina.

Super Everything is nearby, Medina restaurant, souk Possibility to go to Marrakech by bus. Small street, apartment in a good location.

The apartment is very tasteful and beautiful, well situated in the medina. Be advised that the seagulls in Essaouira are loud, so bring earplugs if you are a light sleeper.

the best place to stay in Essaouira for sure i greatly recommend it

We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful riad in Essaouira. Everything was perfect: the riad is charming, clean, and tastefully decorated, ideal for relaxing and enjoying the medina. Special mention to Latifa, who was exceptional! Her dishes were delicious, and she took care of us with great kindness and attention. Communication with the host was also very smooth and pleasant. We highly recommend this riad and hope to come back soon!

Beautiful Riad in the heart of the medina. All the comforts, very nice decor. Mehdi is super responsive. Tourya was making great Moroccan dishes for us and gave us good advice. Everything was perfect. We'd love to come back

Dreamy location, appealing artful decor, and lovely outdoor spaces! The perfect spot for exploring Essaouira. Excellent communication and helpful suggestions about the area. Would love to return.

Thank you Navin for hosting us in your beautiful property. It was easy to find- a straight walk from the city gates. We had 3 adults and 6 kids and were extremely comfortable. Quirky and cool decoration. Beautiful roof terrace and bar area. Great value too

Had a wonderful stay! Would highly recommended

We just had a great week in the Riad. The latter is tastefully and carefully decorated. The riad is very large, each with its own floor and very nice bathrooms. Some might find it dark inside but life here is on the terrace equipped with a well-equipped kitchen. We spent most of our time there when we weren't in the Medina. The view is splendid and the sound of the sea is powerful. Said's welcome on site is wonderful, he is always available and proactive as Eric is. The riad is also very well located, a 5-minute walk to the heart of the Medina and 10 minutes to the beach. Really a nice place for a first time in Essaouira that made us want to come back.

The place was beautiful and was a walking distance from everything. Kamar was very warm and friendly. She helped us out and told us everything we needed to know about the area and what to do.

Staying at Riad Petite Rêverie in Essaouira was nothing short of a dream. From the moment we stepped through the door, we were blown away by the gorgeous interior—thoughtfully decorated, full of charm, and radiating that warm Moroccan spirit. It’s clear how much love has gone into creating this space. The place was immaculately clean and very comfortable. But what made our stay unforgettable was Meryam, our host. Her hospitality was heartfelt and generous, and she made us feel completely at home. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a delicious mint tea. Breakfast was fantastic—fresh, abundant, and made with so much care. And dinner was easily one of the best meals we had in Morocco. Every dish was rich in flavor and beautifully prepared. We will be back for sure!

There were 9 of us and we stayed in the ryad from March 25 to 29, 2025. We had a great time in this ryad, especially thanks to the kindness of Myriam who takes care of the ryad. This young woman is really a gem. Kind, available and excellent cook. She cooked us a great couscous and an excellent tajine with meatballs. To die for! Breakfasts are also very generous: real orange juice, pancakes, eggs etc..... The ryad is very well located in the medina and quiet. And matches the description advertised on the site. In summary, we had a lovely time with friends in this ryad which will leave us with very good memories. jacques

Very nicely decorated, well-maintained, clean and well-equipped riad in a well-located environment. Good support from the agency and the ladies on site. We grilled twice on the rooftop terrace with the fish freshly bought at the market. A recommended experience with the right grill master. We can only recommend this ri!

The place is a dream! We had a very nice and relaxing stay with our two boys (12 and 16 years old). The house is as described; great pool, very large property, great house with many comfortable seating options. The gardener, Rachid, was very accommodating and helpful. We had to get used to the fact that the ensuite bathrooms had no door. Only the children's room and bathroom were a bit musty. Otherwise, everything was great. We'll be happy to recommend the house! Thanks for the lovely holiday :)

Noureddine and Aïcha were so welcoming and warm. We came as a large family of 18 people, the accommodation is quite suitable for large groups, spacious common areas, superb swimming pool with super nice outdoor space especially for breakfast included. In addition, each room has a shower and toilet! Quiet accommodation, perfect for discovering the Essaouira region with a vehicle. We were absolutely charmed by the place and by Noureddine and Aïcha, we highly recommend this Riad!

Beautiful house! Thank you for your hospitality

A great week in a very pleasant and quiet house, with exceptional hospitality of kindness from Larbi, Aisha's delicious cuisine, and the availability of Caz the owner always reachable. We all had a great holiday. Recommended.

The house is very nice and spacious, as well as the garden and pool. Communication with the host and the cleaning lady/cook was excellent. Location is peaceful and remote 20-25 minutes from Essaouira. Only downside is the cleanliness: the house was clean but the towels, bathrooms and kitchen really deserve renovation.

Beautiful house, very nice. We particularly appreciated Hanane and Abdou's kindness and goodwill. They do everything they can to help the tenants of the house, Abdou came to shop with us, took a few of us to the Hammam, took the teens to surf, found us reasonable taxis. Hanane prepared delicious meals for us and took care of the house of our laundry. We had a great stay, very relaxing. The house is a few kilometers from the town of Essaouira and in a very quiet environment. It's a good idea to rent a car so you can get around more easily. We were 10 people and chose to get around by taxi or bus, which are easy to organize/find.

We had such a great week! We were a group of 8 adults and 8 children, and I honestly couldn’t recommend this place enough. It was spotless, comfortable, and beautifully looked after. The food prepared by Samira and the lovely ladies was absolutely incredible — everything was freshly made and so delicious, it really made our stay feel extra special. The groundsman (we’re so sorry we missed his name!) was brilliant — so helpful with anything we needed, and always around with a smile. And Romeo and Luna, the dogs, were just the sweetest and added even more charm to the place. I’d come back in a heartbeat and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for the perfect week away!

A big thank you to the Aadaris for their exceptional hospitality! As soon as we arrived, everything was simple, warm and smooth. Fatima and Mohamed, present on site, are rare gems: available, discreet and remarkably kind. The accommodation was perfectly as advertised, very clean and ideal for a summer stay. We had a great time and would come back in a heartbeat!
