Beautiful, very comfort and calm place to stay. You can feel that the owners thought about your experience and carefully selected each single detail in the room and riad. I will remember this place and definitely come back when in Essaouira. Wish the owners best of luck and kind and intelligent guests like they are themselves.

Amazing riad in a quiet neighborhood! It is located in a walking distance both to the beach and the city centre, inside the historic medina. Rooms are beautifully decorated with attention to detail. There is a fireplace in the room which they light whenever you want. Beds are really confortable. Breakfast is perfect: very generous and complete with sweet and salty options, orange juice and fresh fruit. Staff of the hotel are very helpful and nice, with very good recommendations. I totally recommend staying here!

Riad Malaïka is in an excellent location, a peaceful haven within walking distance of everywhere. Our hosts Abdullah and Hakim were knowledgeable, friendly and professional, warmly welcoming us and facilitating our stay, including any questions we had. The included breakfast varied every day, and each was amazing. We arranged washing clothes without hassle (thank you Abdullah), and a porter's assistance with our bags to the Supratours bus terminal at a reasonable rate of 40 dh (thanks Hakim). The room was cosy, but elegant, with towels/sheets/complementary water replenished daily. The rooftop is a gorgeous place to relax. As others mention, the food is lovely, and we enjoyed our dinner. Thank you for the lovely stay!

Everything! Sofitel has not one flaw. Yousra and Ines especially made our stay the most comfortable it possibly could be. They have been so helpful and really made Sofitel shine as much as it already does. Everything from the atmosphere, the ambience the design and the staff is 5 star quality. Me and my sister have fallen in love and will definitely be back it truly is the best place in Essaouira. Thankyou so much to all the staff, and personal thanks to Yousra and Ines. We will be seeing you again at sofitel! 🙏🙏❤️

Everything! The room, number 31, was a fantastic loft (bed over the bathroom), simplistically designed, and elegant. The staff was smiley, welcoming, and helpful. The courtyard is gorgeous, and judging by the busy evenings, the restaurant serves good food. The location was a short walk to the harbor, but on a more calm but centralized street. The price was fantastic for what we got. I could live there.

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.

I loved the ocean front view and the beautiful design of the room with the colored tiles, the layout, and the beautiful windows. The staff at the Dar Ayour were very nice and made us feel welcome. The fried egg, coffee, and freshly squeezed orange juice at breakfast were so delicious.

We stayed 2 nights at this lovely and well-designed RIAD. Located in the heart of the Médina and very close to the beach. Very clean and spacious rooms (and bathrooms) and superb breakfast & staff. Youssef, the manager, was a great assistance in everything we asked for as arranging laundry, transportation & recommending dinner spots.
