A great stay here - clean and friendly. Great view from rooftop terrace. ##### Andrew Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### catherine Nov 11, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Lovely staff and good breakfast. Good location at the outer edge of the Medina (though we got lost trying to find it). Very steep steps to rooms and rooftop deck. Room was charming but some oddities, like a cupboard with rod but a shelf immediately below, so hangers not useable. And only one set of towels for two people --asked for more and got an extra hand towel but still only one bath towel between us. However, they kindly lent us wine glasses and a cork screw! I didn't love our bathroom (in Saadia room), unglazed tiles in shower base seemed like they be hard to clean. However, a clean safe spot for a reasonable rate -- I'd stay again. ##### catherine Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### catrin Oct 28, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Booked for 2 adults and 2 children and was given a self contained apartment with sitting area and tiny kitchen plus 2 bathrooms over 2 floors. View was amazing, staff polite and breakfast good. Only caution is upstairs bedroom ceiling low (6 feet) and stairs very narrow so may not be good for those with mobility problems. They do have rooms without these issues so just ask but we felt we had the best rooms here for the view alone. Roof terrace a bonus. ##### catrin Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Timothy Nov 12, 2024 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Suggest you look elsewhere Very difficult to find this place in a dingy area. The staff appeared less than happy to see us. They offered no maps nor recommendations for places to eat - a bit useless really. The ocean view was fantastic but the bed was uncomfortable. Neither of us slept well for the two days we spent. Still nice to open the window and listen to the ocean! Shower worked very well with plenty of hot water. ##### Timothy Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Leticia Oct 23, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovely Riad & Staff Beautiful Riad, nice room & hot water!! The staff was kind, helpful & very attentive. Hubby had a stomach ache and they got him tea to make him feel better. This is our bad - we didn’t realize that we hadn’t paid online when booking. There was some confusion but they were kind & patient with us. They don’t take credit cards but we were fortunate because we had just enough cash to pay for it. ##### Leticia Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Mar 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great central location Great location, great service! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Fabrice Oct 27, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Good value for the money wirh fantastic view from our bedroom and fhe terrasse ##### Fabrice Stayed 1 night in Oct 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Mandy Aug 24, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Pleasant B&B A pleasant b&b. The breakfast and service were excellent. We had a room with a sea view which looked out over the rocks but it meant that the room was a bit damp. ##### Mandy Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laurent Dec 21, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Hotel al borde del mar , muy lindo y muy típico , el personal muy atento .

Nous étions seulement de passage, nous sommes restés qu'une nuit avec nos 3 enfants mais le logement était super, vue incroyable, prestation à la hauteur de nos attentes. Nous n'avions juste pas prévu que c'était de l'autre côté de la médina donc pas trop pratique si on doit aller à la voiture ou faire des allers retours avec les enfants. ##### Jordan Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Youssef May 11, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Magníficas vistas al atlántico.

Made for a chilly, noisy night, but staff quickly repaired, then all was well. Rooms have no heat, but cozy sleeping under blankets. Very quiet. Good breakfasts. Good location, close to souks. ##### Pamela Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2022 ### 4/10 Poor #### mohamed Feb 12, 2020 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Dar bahar Déçu. Ne prenez surtout pas la chambre au rez-de-chaussée. C'est une honte de mettre cette chambre en location. C'est juste un local à balais. Cerise sur le gâteau, le bureau de la réception se trouve juste devant cette chambre. Influencé par les photos, je l'ai réservée pour une nuit, la veille je suis passé pour voir à quoi elle ressemble. Très déçu, je demande à la réception de me donner une autre chambre. Pas possible. J'ai abandonné le prix de la location et j'ai été trouvé ailleurs. ##### mohamed Stayed 1 night in Feb 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary Illeen Nov 17, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great riad host I really appreciated the riad host that he protected my friend from our tour guide who tried to take advantage of her vulnerability. The riad host immediately told the tour guide to leave the room. The host warned us that our tour guide was a crooked snake. I am glad that host stood his ground firmly to protect us and the host treated us with great respect. He served us an amazing breakfast. The riad was beautiful and clean, and it obviously is hundred years old that some areas needed some surface cosmetic work. The terrace on top of roof has good view of Atlantic Ocean. I would definitely return to this location. I want to say thanks to riad host for taking care of us with his protection. ##### Mary Illeen Stayed 1 night in Nov 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Suzanne Oct 14, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Can’t beat the view Dar Al Bahar was simply lovely. The room (Malika) that we chose was on the third floor but we were helped both going up and down with our luggage. The view is to die for, absolutely breathtaking. The terrace was perfect for watching the sunset and breakfast. We were a little cold so we had breakfast downstairs which was fine. We always had 2 types of bread with an omelette, coffee and juice. Location is good for all parts of the Medina, about a ten minute walk from where the taxi drops you off. ##### Suzanne Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Matej Oct 13, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice view Spent one night at the hotel and were very satisfied. The hotel is well located in the city center at the ocean. From the roof it offers an absolutelly outstanding view. The rooms are nice and clean. To get to the beach, it takes roughly about 10 minutes by foot walking through the beautiful, narrow streets of Essouira. ##### Matej Stayed 1 night in Oct 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Aug 11, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Un belle adresse La vue sur la mer est un vrai plus ainsi que le petit déjeuner sur la terrasse avec la vue sur la medina ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Aug 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### margaret May 3, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Quiet hotel overlooking the ocean in the mediina.
