5 stars are not enough for this beautiful Riad, everything was perfect! I tried to find the tiniest imperfection but couldn’t Even before coming here the communication was easy & Hicham was very smart to understand what I wanted from the e-mails I sent. What we loved : - the check in was smooth and we were offered some tea -the turtle was so cute -my husband was happy with the big birthday cake and decoration of the room -the room was beautiful & cozy, I was hesitant to book cause of outside noise, but no we could hear nothing from outside it even rained on the last day and we didn’t know! - the bathtub is the star of the show, oriental decoration & candles I felt like I was in 1001 night fairytale. - there is a Jacuzzi at the terrasse, which is also perfect for sunbathing -the breakfast was nice. There was juice, fruits, msemen, eggs… -housekeeping service is done everyday with so much care -anything we needed we just asked them and they brought it to us with a big smile -all workers where very professional, helpful, with a perfect English, didn’t even ask for any name cause I felt they’ve been all on a 5 star level and very helpful Even the booking was so easy as on their website I could find a description for all their 7 rooms with pictures. We will surely come back here, it will be our go to when coming to Essaouira, we actually need to comeback as we still need to visite essaouira because we stayed mostly in our cute room and even added one more night.

In a good local hotel, wake up in the morning by the seagull, breakfast to the restaurant on the top floor, facing the sea, the waves rolling, the seagulls coiled, the sun is shining, it is difficult to describe the beauty.
After reading some of the reviews before staying at this hotel I have to say I'm not surprised. I totally agree with the comments that this is not a true 5 star hotel at all. The positives are the location, the pool area and the rooms (to an extent). From one way its only a short walk to the medina and from the other it's a short walk to the beach bars. The pool area is well maintained and very attracting. The rooms are a good size with comfy bed and powerful shower and they are very clean. However, we started off by having to change rooms as the room we were first given had a chipped bath - all the paint had come up off the bottom of the bath so it was unusable, the staff solved this pretty quickly by offering us a room of the same standard one floor above. Nevertheless, I find it shocking that a 5 star hotel would not maintain their rooms in the first place. We found the cleaning staff and concierges very friendly. Some of the breakfast staff and beach staff, less so. One day we sat on the beach beds and felt looked down on and were not treated as well as some of the other guests. This really put us off and prevented us using this area again. Not sure if this is because we are a younger/mixed couple? Overall, the hotel is lacking in a lot of areas and the Accor group need to look into this. I would definitely visit Essaouira again but would probably rent an apartment since the beach and medina have so many options anyway!
It’s okay soon, the hotel in Morocco is basically the same, and there is a small episode in the middle. We waited for the kung fu waiter in the downstairs to think that we checked out and left the things in the room, but it’s all right. Looking back, everything else is ok
What a beautiful Riad, everyone has been super friendly, helpful , knowledgeable and smiling. The hotel is lovely and clean, nothing is too much trouble. The reception staff go above and beyond to help and the lady that serves breakfast is always lovely with a good selection of food every day. Always welcomed with a smile. The Riad is very centrally located in the median and a 5 minute walk to either the port or beautiful sandy beach. Definitely recommend
Stayed at Essaouira Lodge in August 2022 having booked it 2 years prior but postponed due to COVID. At the time of original booking we were impressed by the other reviews all saying how flexible the resort was, especially the shuttle service to and from Essaouira. Unfortunately this was not the experience we had - shuttle spots were limited and timetable was inflexible and we very much felt like times were engineered to keep you at the lodge for meal times, alternative being that you would be stuck in Essaouira for minimum of 4 hours. And that was if the shuttle ran on time which it did not. Local taxis are ”not allowed” to go to the resort so the only alternative are expensive tourist taxis. Food and drinks at Essaouira Lodge was nice but quite expensive, a family of 4 evening meal costing approx 80Euro not including alcohol. The staff were all really nice, but the service was less than ideal - Never enough loungers around the pool for the guests staying at the lodge, and the lodge would also take external guests making the situation worse. Pool towels were also rarely available. At breakfast every day there would not be enough coffee cups, you ALWAYS had to ask for something and as helpful as the staff were to provide what you needed, the next day would be the same situation again. We also had to change accommodation due to stray dogs in the resort waking us up at 6am.... the reception staff were less than helpful and actually became quite rude when we tried to arrange a change of room. Even after we changed rooms there were issues with ant infestations and the amenities not working - we tried to use the oven on 3 evenings to avoid the high restaurant prices but each time had to call for maintenance to come and fix the oven before we could use it. All in all we had a nice holiday, relaxing by the pool when we could secure loungers. But the Essaouira Lodge is not without its issues and despite the friendly staff, no improvements were made one day to the next. I would not recommend Essaouira Lodge and we will not return.

OOlgaRiad is beautiful, is in the center of Medina. You can order omlet for breakfast. Administrators are polite, answer questions, help to orient.
The windows of our room went out to the street and at night was noisy. To the beach go minutes 10-15.
CconanztI had the pleasure of staying two nights in this lovely authentic riad. From the moment you step in, you know this is a special place! The decor is fabulous and shows great attention to detail. My room and the common areas are spotlessly clean. My room was on the top floor. Outside was a large patio/balcony common area with seating. Great for stargazing! There is an atrium in the middle, you can see down to the first floor. My bed was comfortable, the breakfast was delicious, and the shower was gorgeous! All of the staff I encountered were friendly and helpful. In addition, this riad is far easier to find than most! It is centrally located in the old city area and is a five minute walk to the beach. Highly recommend!
GGuest UserLarge groups of students aren't the easiest customers, but La Perle de Mogador provided a top-notch experience for everyone. During our stay, it was very rainy and they still were incredibly welcoming as we trudged water and dirt through their lobby. The hotel was incredibly clean and hospitable, 10/10 experience, would stay here again.

Essaouira Beach
JJessigzThe sea is blue, windy and sunny, not our traditional beach, black reef. Many seagulls fly around us, not afraid of people at all. Look carefully at two seagulls. Many people are fishing by the sea.
Medina of Essaouira
Ggz当地向导伊妹儿The scenery of the old town of Medina is nice, and the night view is very beautiful. It is beautiful at first glance, with bright lights and distinctive buildings. It gives people a refreshing feeling and is very interesting. You will be intoxicated in the old town at night.
Essaouira
Jjuki235The old town of Essaouira is an ancient North African city with a thousand-year history. It is built by the sea and has been a battleground since ancient times. The old town is full of old buildings and ancient streets. There are many handicraft shops with local characteristics. You can go there to have a look and buy some small gifts. It is very meaningful to keep them as souvenirs.
Essaouira Fishing Port
JJessigzNext to Sovila Castle, perhaps the fishing season is off, there are many fishing boats parked, and many people are trading here. A large open-air fish market. A large group of seagulls are flying in the air, not afraid of people.
Castle Fort
JJessigzWe arrived at 4pm and were told that it would close at 4:30pm, so we had to rush in to have a look. Fortunately, the place is small, and although it costs 50, you can see the whole Medina, the seaplanes, and of course flocks of seagulls.
The average price for hotels in Essaouira is AED 322 on weekdays, and AED 323 on weekends (Friday-Saturday).
