“The central patio, complete with a fountain, immediately establishes a sense of traditional Moroccan charm. Being within a short walk of the old fortress and beaches is a definite plus, while the sun terrace rewards with medina views unique among Essaouira hotels. I think this riad is particularly well-suited to those seeking a cultural experience and organized activities.”
