What a special place! Mohamed & Sofia are wonderful hosts, always welcomed us with a smile. The Riad is perfectly located within the Medina. The room was nice and the bed super comfortable. We loved the Morrocan breakfast at the rooftop terrace. 100% recommendation!

Riad Yanitri is an amazing and outstanding place to stay. We never expected to find such a lovely, stylish, childfriendly and absolutely new place in Marroko. The couple who runs the Riad is giving more than everthing 24/7 to make your stay perfect. We stayed with our toddler two nights and wished we would have stayed much longer. There are many things that even keep the little ones entertained or welcome them to be explored. Babybeds, babychairs, toddlerfriendly meals, turtles, games... everything is there. The whole place is so welcoming and the food so authentical and tasty that it is hard to leave. What my husband and I also really enjoyed was, that the owners speak English!!! That's a huge advantage as we got so many information about everthing we came up with. We are so glad that we discovered this little heaven not far from town.

The rooms each have a unique style and are beautifully decorated. Very pleasant atmosphere thanks to the small number of rooms. Very attentative, friendly and helpful staff. We felt welcome from minute one. Highly recommended for a relaxed stay in the heart of Essaouira.

Very nice and comfortable hotel. The interter is really stylish, the staff is hospitable. The location is quite convenient: the central street is a 1-minute walk away, the embankment is 5-7 minutes away. The bus station can also be easily reached in 10 minutes by walking just in a straight line. I had a very good impression of you, thank you!

A beautiful, traditional Riad which was full of authentic typical Morocco decor and lots of lovely green plants. Very nicely done rooms that were colorful and cosy. I'd absolutely want to come back and stay here again. The staff were very friendly and gave lots of great information too. The breakfast was delicious too, and plenty of it :)

Very friendly and helpful staff. Despite being located in a busy street of the Medina, when the doors of this riad opens, the noise stays out. The courtyard has some jungle vibes with beautiful plants hanging from the top floor. Breakfast is simple but fresh and good.

Amazing riad in a very central yet quiet location of Essaouira. Very tastefully designed with plenty of local art pieces. The owner is very friendly and makes you feel at home even when you are staying there for one night only (my case). Special kudos to the traditional moroccan breakfast on the terrace!
