Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
This was an amazing stay Jamal and his wife go all out to give guests a great experience- nothing is too much trouble. Breakfast is huge with a big selection of different items. The pool was an added bonus. The lady who cooks (sorry I don’t recall her name) is friendly and helpful as well as a good cook! It’s a few miles/kilometres out of Essaouira so a car is probably preferable but if you want a fab place to stay that is peaceful, calm and clean then this is the place for you! I will certainly return there if I visit Essaouira again. I just enjoyed chilling out by the pool and popping into Essaouira late afternoon/early evening. If I had one tiny criticism it’s about the coffee- I drink loads every day and if they’d invest in a proper coffee machine that would be an 11/10! However the fantastic Tea Royal more than made up for the lack of coffee machine! Merci Beaucoup. A la prochaine!

Exceptionnel

Super sejour dans le riad de Jamal et katie. Le lieu est superbe et tres bien équipé. Les hotes sont tres conviviaux et pleins de bon conseils. Le petit déjeuner est excellent et copieux (merci Latifa) Vous pouvez y aller les yeux fermés. C'est le meilleur endroit ou se poser (et reposer) pour visiter Essaouira
