Essaouira has developed from a hippie hangout to become a top Morocco beach resort with good surfing conditions. Its 18th-century medina is almost European in feel and narrow streets lead under low arches past fragrant spice stalls and local artisans selling everything from wood carvings to faience pottery.
Dotted around the souk are many traditional-style riads on Booking.com, hidden behind tiled façades and blue doors. Other Essaouira accommodation options include luxury hotels with swimming pools, cheap apartments, and B&Bs near Essaouira Airport.
Also bright blue are the rowing boats bobbing gently in small harbours sheltered by the Scala of the Port, a wide walkway with ramparts through which several historic cannons poke out. At the end is the Citadel, a small fortress overlooking Mogador Island - the largest of the Iles Purpuraires, so-called for the purple shells found in their rocks that were once used to produce dyes for Roman senator togas.
Another fortress – Bordj El Berod – lies in pieces on the long, sandy beach south of the marina. In the opposite direction the coastline is more rocky and lined by the Scala of the Kasbah, the crenellated walls protecting the medina. Horseriding and camel safaris are available on the beach and you can also visit a Berber village inland.
What a wonderful city! Beaming with actual local craft and art, lots of cute street cats and beautiful colourful houses with intricately decorated doors, windows and fountains. We fell in love with this small city and would love to go back.
Pro Tip if you like cats: buy some vet cat food and walk around the city with it because those creatures will break your heart with their cuteness.
I would recommend spending at least two days there. Get lost in the small streets to the sides from the main shopping areas. Visit the fish market, eat fresh oysters or other sea products. The beach was nice and serves as a great refreshment after long walks in Medina.
Shopping was great and cheap but I would still recommend learning the actual prices first. For example, we got small tiles for 10dhs but in other places we’re getting prices like 50 or 30. Don’t be afraid to walk away and negotiate a bit. Especially if it is not the master themselves selling but a reseller. You can usually find actual masters on the smaller side streets (especially for wood and fabrics). I also noticed that women have fair prices more often.
Food. Amazing street food and fruits! Don’t go to overpriced restaurants on tourist streets, unless they have a “menu” offer which can be worth the price. Otherwise, if you just take a detour from the main hustle, there will be tangine not for 80dhs but for 30. The food is also way cheaper outside of Medina.

Impressive fort!
Impressive fort! The Atlantic brings a fresh brise and a lot of problems for the buildings because humidity. It’s impressive to watch the ocean breaks at the city wall and sunset over the blue fisher boats. The Souk is small but fine and not so over crowded like Marrakech but not easy to get good prices because you don’t have many options like in other souks.But it’s a unique place impressive too!

Good place with a chilled-out vibe.
Good place with a chilled-out vibe. Great for those who are into surfing or wind sports. Also a cool place for those who like to try local food, shop at markets, or just meander through the narrow streets of a historic and vibrant town.
Accommodation is affordable, food is tasty, and the people are friendly. Also lots of activities such as surfing and camel/horse riding.
Easy to reach other towns and cities from the bus station.

There were lots of things I liked about Essaouira.
There were lots of things I liked about Essaouira. It is a coastal seaport with fresh fish brought in daily, so eating fish/seafood was a real delight. The town itself has many sections of medina/suq where all sorts of shopping opportunities, or just gazing around can be had. I did a cookery course which I enjoyed and found very informative, we learned to make a meat tagine, also a lentil dish, and had a visit to the spice market. I went with another hotel guest to a hammam which was a first for me. I enjoyed it all, thought it was perhaps a bit commercial, and disappointed a day or two later to discover I had acquired headlice. I have heard of this happening to others, so whilst dismayed to be in that state, I recognise that it is fairly common. No I would not go to a hammam again. The hassle of getting lice free outweighed for me the enjoyment. I do ,however, recommend the cookery course.

Had a great time here! The hotel is in an excellent location to explore Essaouira. The rooms are cute and clean. A special shout out to Hamid, who was managing the hotel when I was there. I arrived late from Marrakech after the laundry services were closed for the day and Hamid offered to bring them to his home, wash them, and bring them back in the next morning. The extra care he showed made the trip worthwhile and I'd definitely recommend this Riad to anyone traveling to Essaouira!
We have been travelling around Morocco staying in top hotels and there is anything like this hotel. It is a true temple for relax in the middle of paradise. Beautiful architecture decorated with the best taste. The swimming pool is perfect and the beach is amazing with a calm sea surrounded by beautiful dunes. Great hospitality from the staff and loads of activities to do during your stay. While you are in the hotel, the rest of the world disappears. We will definitely come back.
Very friendly small hotel just inside the city walls. Great for exploring the back streets and close to restaurants and the beach. Also easy walk to Supratours bus station.
Rooms are small but comfortable. Shower was good - even on the top floor - and I had a view out over the street. Nice breakfast on the terrace or outside the room.
Colourful decoration and quirky characterful place. Friendly staff on 24/7. Fine for a couple of nights.
I visited with my children and we were received by Hussein and his other colleague. We enjoyed staying in Dar Halima. The room was very clean. Beddings were neat and super clean. The people in charge were efficient and welcoming. Our breakfast was served on time each day. We mostly liked the location since it is close to the beach and a walking distance to the city center. I recommend the facility to any one looking to visit Essaouira.

As the preferred choice, we at Cultural Morocco Tours operator believe that this establishment embodies the epitome of comfort and convenience for our esteemed guests.

First ever review and thought it was warranted, given I read many reviews on this resort and wasn't sure myself about booking. The Hotel is a bit dated but you get 5 star service, the staff couldn't do enough for you. Exceptionally well located, sea view was stunning. The hotel beach area is perfect, well staffed comfortable bed/loungers and good food.
For what you pay I think overall great hotel.
Very nice hotel with great staff who were always very helpful. Our room had everything we might need for a short stay. Extra bonus was a gorgeous rooftop with views over the city.
Location is the best part of this place: the hotel is on a quiet street but close to everything in Medina. It is also close to one of the entrances to Medina, food market and bus station (only 10 minutes by foot).
This is the eclectic and bohemian home of Isabelle, your charming host (and her art collection). You have a private bedroom suite, and share a living room and all open areas with a handful of guests. including the open roof terrace, which may have the best view in Essaouira. The host is a delight and makes great food and visit recommendations . We loved our week here and hope to return.
old fashioned hotel in the medina of essaouira. you are actually in the middle of the old town. the price is good and i had a quite big room including private bathroom. they sell water bottles for normal market prices at the reception which made shopping a lot easier. the guys at the reception are very friendly and i could leave my luggage there after check-out.
Good hotel. My room was clean and well presented. Extremely comfortable mattress - one of the best I've slept on. Nice crisp white duvets and pillows. Wi-fi was very good. Excellent high pressure hot rain style shower. Also, I would like to give a special mention to Otma (I think that is his name?) at the reception - he was very nice and a pleasure to talk to.
Very causy place, which will not be the impersonal hotel stay but will not bother you at any rate more than you want yourself. Friendly for family with kids. Valuable advice and arrangements on what to do for travelling around Essaouira. Chance to switch of your western agenda, though wifi works very deacently. Authentic Morrocan design in every detail.
Villa Beldi is a luxury retreat, while it isn’t overly authentic it is a beautiful hotel in a really nice setting. Perfect for relaxing with easy access to town via taxi or hire car etc. The main beach is only a short walk away too. The food is excellent, especially breakfast.
Everything was great. Especially likable and helpful staff. A friendly vibe, The hotel has charming rooms, each with their own design. You can see that a lot of thought went into creating this. The best hotel I have been to during my time in Morocco.
A stunning Riad, beautiful architecture and associated art. We had the top room with its own pool, a luxury treat in its own league. The staff are exceptional. The hotel gives a sense of a bright, go ahead future for the region. Go there!
My best experience in Morocco! The hotel is absolutely gorgeous, the staff is top notch and food is delicious. The people were kind and helpful with me, and I am glad I chose this hotel to stay. Definitely recommend.
