Set in Sidi Kaouki, 400 metres from Sid Kaouki Beach, Dar Iziki offers accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a garden and a shared lounge. Boasting dry cleaning services, this property also provides guests with a terrace. The accommodation provides a shared kitchen, a concierge service and currency exchange for guests.

A continental breakfast is available at the hostel. The Dar Iziki is the best place to be in Sidi Kaouki!! Ahmed and Abdrahim go way beyond the normal what a host is! They really made our stay remarkable. The rooms are simple but for us they were perfect and very clean. The kids loved the pool and the surrounding. The traditional moroccan breakfast was a daily joy and the dinners were a highlight you shouldn't miss. Sidi Kaouki is still a small and lovely place to relax, enjoy the beach and surf (the beach ist a 2 min walk away!). The whole crew will help you with whatever you need and always have time for a chat. We highly recommend the Dar Iziki. Thanks to Ahmed & the whole team!!

Hostel La Smala has a shared lounge, terrace, a restaurant and bar in Essaouira. Ideally set in the Kasbah district, this hostel is situated 5.9 km from Golf de Mogador. The property is 600 metres from Plage d'Essaouira, and within 300 metres of the city centre. Amazing place! Beautiful rooms (I loved the wooden oculus beds) and beautiful comunal spaces. The rooftop is the cherry on top! You can stay there all they long and being your food without need to buy from the bar, but you should try the smoothie with banana dates and avocado! 😍 The room was incredibly quiet and with a lot of privacy to be an hostel. I slept like a baby. Toilets very clean and the stuff very friendly and helpful!
