It features a flowery patio with an Andalusia fountain and the larges terraces where you can relax in the sun.

With its ocean front view, a top-notch maid service and dedication to exceptional service, the Riad Chems Bleu is a jewel of Essaouira. The atmosphere was wonderful! Chems Bleu is located in quite a dark alley but once the doors open a green and luminous space is waiting for you! The staff is very helpful and super friendly. We had one of the higher located rooms with a private terrace looking at the ocean which was absolutely lovely! The rooms are individual decorated and very clean. As long as you’re not very tall you will have a great time. The ceilings are not the highest and the bed is rather small compared to other places we have stayed at in Marokko.

Well located in Essaouira, Riad Babette provides an à la carte breakfast and free WiFi. Featuring full-day security, this property also provides guests with a sun terrace. Extra facilities include a 24-hour front desk, meeting rooms, a tour desk and housekeeping service. Riad Babette is located within the walls of the old city of Essaouira. The owner and his family have beautifully decorated the riad with tasteful touches and beautiful photography throughout. Even though we arrived late in the evening, the owner was willing to prepare a delicious dinner for us. We were warmly welcomed. Our room was beautiful and well appointed. The air conditioning was welcome as it was a bit humid. Wifi worked well in all spaces. Breakfast was delicious. The owner, Mohammed, was very attentive and catered to our every need. For example, we were interested in purchasing some of the traditional inlaid wood trays that Essaouira is famous for. He took us to a shop with pieces of very high quality where we were able to purchase exactly what we wanted in a low pressure environment.
