Boasting sea views, Zayyna hôtel de charme Essaouira features accommodation with an infinity pool, a garden and a bar, around 6.7 km from Golf de Mogador. The property has mountain and pool views. There is a restaurant serving Moroccan cuisine, and free private parking is available. This beautiful new boutique hotel is stunningly designed, with every detail carefully thought through and perfectly in harmony. The architecture blends seamlessly into the peaceful countryside, and the interior décor is refined and consistent throughout. The Tamegroute pottery in particular added such a unique touch. The palm tree-lined driveway creates a sense of grandeur as you arrive. From the terrace, the views of the surrounding landscape are simply breathtaking. The pool is delightful: the water temperature was just right, and the sun loungers were comfortable. We stayed in the most basic (and therefore cheapest) room, but it was absolutely perfect: beautifully decorated, a comfortable bed, and a fantastic shower. This is the ideal place to escape the busy work life and truly relax. Some other reviewers mentioned the access road, but we honestly don’t understand the complaints. It’s just a typical Moroccan gravel side road, easily manageable if you drive slowly – as you should anyway, since you often come across goat herds on the way! The food is delicious; not an extensive menu, but that makes perfect sense for such a small-scale hotel where guests often dine in Essaouira. This way, every meal is fresh and nothing goes to waste. The tajines were outstanding, cooked with love, and the breakfasts were a real treat too: different types of pancakes, bread, a freshly made omelette. What really sets this hotel apart is the wonderful staff. We have traveled to Morocco before and know the warmth of Moroccan hospitality, but the kindness and genuine care of this team were truly exceptional. During our stay, nothing was ever too much trouble. Each staff member, in their own way, went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and cared for, and they did it from the heart! They also had a wonderful team spirit among themselves, which made us feel like part of the Zayyna family. Saying goodbye was genuinely difficult.

At the homestay, all units include a wardrobe. All units are fitted with a kettle, a private bathroom and free WiFi, while selected rooms include a balcony and some have mountain views. At the homestay, each unit is equipped with bed linen and towels. If I could give this place more than a score of 10, I would. The installations were impeccable and the service was exceptional. It really only works if you have a car or are able to take a taxi to downtown (which could be costly), but we had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend. The breakfast and dinner were incredible! We hope to be back!

Boasting a garden and views of garden, Villa des Hauts Mogador is set in Essaouira, 16 km from Golf de Mogador. With pool views, this accommodation provides a patio and a swimming pool. The guest house offers rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi. Our stay at Villa des Hauts Mogador was an absolute dream. Nestled in the fragrant peace of the North African countryside around Essaouira, the villa offers a perfect blend of luxury, tranquility, and Moroccan charm. The villa itself is a thoughtful example of understated design, with unexpected vistas, tasteful decor, and stunning views of the surrounding hills and sunsets over the sea. The spacious and comfortable rooms are equipped with all the necessary amenities, ensuring a relaxing and rejuvenating stay. The highlight, however, is the lovely pool, which offers a happy escape from normal life. The warm hospitality of the owners, Nadia and Pierre, along with the attentive service of the staff, made our stay truly unforgettable. Malak and Sadia, in particular, were exceptional, preparing delicious meals and ensuring our every need was met. The villa's location is ideal, it’s a peaceful retreat whilst still being within easy reach of Essaouira's medina and beaches. The nearby restaurants, recommended by the villa's staff, provided some excellent culinary experiences. Villa des Hauts Mogador is a hidden gem that offers a truly authentic Moroccan experience of kindness and pleasure. We highly recommend this villa to anyone seeking a luxurious and unforgettable getaway.
