    Maybe better soap in the shower. Maybe some more variety at breakfast (for example eggs or fruit)

    The room was very reasonably sized. The service at breakfast was great. The staff were really polite and kind. Good location in the medina. The terrace was really nice and well looked after.

    The humidity in the entire establishment is eating away the walls, the furniture, etc. There isn't the much needed follow up and treatment needed for a riad in the médina two feet from the sea.

    Staff were accommodating and very nice, the location is great, not too far, not too close to the market, very calm.

    There actually isn't anything that I didn't like, it was a really great experience. Happy to go there again.

    The room was so gorgeous, really spacious and relaxing. White and light walls with cosy bedding, it was lovely to sleep, rest and relax in. The terrace upstairs was great and the views brilliant, breakfast was pleasant, French continental style pastries teas coffees marmalade and the hosts helpful and pleasant. I would definitely stay there again.

    Breakfast was a bit disappointing as it only consisted of sweet stuff and there was no fresh fruit so different to what we are used to in Morocco.

    Very charming riad located conveniently in the medina but away from the hassle and bussel. Our room was cleaned on a daily basis which we did not expect. The shower was great! Nice terrace and beautiful view of the ocean.

    - bathroom window opens inside the room but it’s fine - not the best wifi if you stay in one of the rooms last floor

    + location and view + breakfast is great (especially if you have it on the terrace upstairs) + staff very friendly + flexibly (check in early on the first day and breakfast earlier than their usual on the last day due to our flight )

    The photos available for this property were quite limited and didn't show for example that the bathroom is not fully separated from the bedroom, and there are open windows that you can see between! Also, compared to some of the other places we stayed on our trip, this riad lacked a bit in character.

    The riad was very clean and comfortable and we had a nice stay. It has a roof terrace, but because of the strong winds there wasn't really a good time to make use of it!

    If you don't speak Arabic or French, you will struggle as the staff's English is very limited. Payment in cash is a pain when atm max withdrawals are 2000mad. certain noise does carry through the hostel and I could hear cleaning taking place from like 8:30am on my last morning, though earplugs did the trick.

    wonderfully comfortable little BnB style hotel! I loved my stay here, especially having come from a truly heinous hostel. The staff are friendly and the wifi worked well. the room was so cute and looked exactly like the photos, which is rare for Morocco, it would seem. You can hear the ocean clearly though your open windows, which is nice. I would totally stay here again!

    - Seagulls can be insanely loud, especially in the morning. Obviously this has nothing to do with the hotel, just the location - Not having a physical door between bathroom and the bedroom is slightly uncomfortable

    - Excellent location (right next to the sea, in the center of old town but not on a busy street) - Friendly and helpful staff - Comfortable and spacious room

    The room was very cold and humid even though the booking site stated the rooms were heated. The beds and pillows were rock solid. The room is also really noisy when you’re trying to sleep. They only serve bread for breakfast.

    The view from the rooftop is amazing. A nice cozy area. The freshly squeezed orange juice was a nice touch to breakfast. The staff were really kind. The place was clean.

    The windows have a view to the main courtyard so guests pass by all the time and the noises from outside are very well heard. The access to the roof is amazing though. The common area where breakfast is served is cozy but a bit dark.

    A very nicely organised riad with a southern white washed wall atmosphere. The room was very clean and spacious. It felt at home.

    The rooms were very cold and humid, keep in mind we visited in January. A heater in the room would've been nice. The bed and pillows were a bit too hard. Also the bed was small for a couple, my boyfriend and I had too little space. For one person it would've been ok. But overall it was ok for the price we paid.

    Cozy common area and superb view of the ocean from the rooftop. The staff were warm and helpful, location was good and breakfast was simple but yummy. Fresh orange juice and freshly made moroccan pancakes with jams, butter and honey. Tea or coffee. The rooms were spacious, the shower was hot and had a good pressure. Everything was very clean.

    We visited Casa del Mar part-way through a bikepacking trip from Agadir to Marrakesh and back via this coastal city. The staff were more than happy for us to store the bikes upstairs in our room, which was excellent. The room itself was large enough & had two good sized beds, given it’s description as a ‘triple’. It had a small mezzanine level with a 4ft mattress on, which was perfectly comfortable. The bathroom was clean and functional, with a powerful, hot shower. Breakfast was good, with fresh juice, mint tea and a range of traditional baked items. The location is great if you want to explore the hustle and bustle of the city’s narrow streets, maybe not so great if you are after something a little quieter or have a rental vehicle. Inside does a good job of blocking out the noise from outside, but sound travels within the property’s numerous floors quite easily & we were woken up in the night by music a couple of times. The terrace area on top is also a nice addition. However, it’s a shame that the lights don’t appear to work, so you can’t sit up there in the evenings after dark as we’d hoped to.

    The staff doesn't speak any English. From my experience it's often the case in Essauira. Breakfast is not good. Only sweet things. Basically bread with jam and butter.

    Great interior, all natural materials, all nice and white with pops of color, easy on the eye. Great location, with some view towards the ocean from the terrace Really pleasant place to spend a couple of nights, great value for the price.
