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.
Lovely old medina and fishing port just a short walk along...
Lovely old medina and fishing port just a short walk along the promenade. If you explore the alleyways away from the shops you will come across workshops where the local products are being handcrafted.

What a wonderful city!
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.

smashing place to visit, the fishing port is remarkable and the fresh fish always available delightful. Many brilliant restaurants some of which should have Michelin stars... as their food was so good
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.
Discover the charm of Essaouira at this exquisite hotel, strategically positioned amidst the captivating blend of the beach and the medina. 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. We wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone seeking a memorable experience while exploring the enchanting wonders of Essaouira.
An incredible stay in Essaouira! Everything was amazing about the hotel. It's a beautifully remodeled historical building right inside the Medina. The roof, pool, and lobby were all gorgeous and so welcoming. Breakfast was delicious. The room was a great size so comfortable. The staff was really the best! They all went above and beyond to make sure our stay was so memorable and perfect. We would recommend to anyone visiting!
This hotel is right at the front of the Medina, so you don't have to worry about finding your way through all the alleys of the Square at night or in the daytime for that matter. It's also close to a lot of cafes/restaurants and the beach. I was was a solo female traveler and it was very safe. There's always someone at the front, and they wouldn't even let my friend inside because he wasn't a guest. 😅
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).
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.
We have stayed in Essaouira 3 times now, and Riad Daranur is easily our favourite place to stay. The hosts made us feel so comfortable. It felt like home very quickly for us. The bed is delightfully comfortable and it is in the perfect location for exploring. The terrace also has the best view from a Riad we've ever seen!!
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!
Loved our nice clean room with terrace and ocean view. The hotel’s private beach area is on the ocean across the street from the hotel. Service and food were good at the beach cafe. Nice pool area in the hotel’s inner courtyard.
The room was very comfortable and clean. The hotel is run by a family and one of the owner brothers helped us a lot, showed us some local shops around and was super friendly and welcoming. It was one of my best stays in Morocco
Good experience in Essaouira youth hostel, best place to stay, close to everywhere, best service, staff friendly... When next time I want to stay in Essaouira, I will definitely choose Essaouira youth hostel
The hôtel in a very good place inside essaouira old medina, safe and with great vibe, it's getting renovated so there's a slight difference between the rooms some are fantastic 10/10 others are only 6/10
