Dar Essaada

We have toured the whole country this summer and as result had to make many stops in various guest houses/hotels during one month. Riad Dar Essaada was truly one of our favorite places! The property itself is very beautiful, well-maintained and extremely clean, with crispy white bed linen and luxurious stone bath tubs/showers. The lounge/dining area is very cosy with tasteful decorations and many inviting corners to relax with a book or a board game. There is a swimming pool with comfortable lounge chairs and umbrellas, perfect for the whole family. The riad offers delicious, home-made dishes from traditional Moroccan/Berber cuisine, but will also cater to your individual wishes. Breakfast is simply outstanding! The staff and hosts made us feel truly welcome, thank you very much from all our family! And of course it's impossible not to mention the beautiful golden retriever puppy Tia, who stole our hearts forever.

What a beautyful place! We will sertainly go back. The food was dilicious and staff very friendly. They helped us very well at a moment that we needed it.

A wondeful riad set a 20-minute drive from Sidi Kaouki, Dar Essaada sits within a Argan forest. Essaouira habour is just a 15-minute drive away(€10) Where do I start..... we loved it so much after 1 weeks stay we returned for a few more nights prior to flying home. Françoise & Bruno are the most amazing hosts.. we felt so at home. Faboulous fresh food cooked to order at a time that fits into your schedule by Françoise... fresh vegetables from Brunos garden, a super selection of wine on tap... they both will go out of their way to accommodate any of your needs. Bedrooms are all lovely and unique in their own style. We stayed in room Ait Said, a large ground floor room with huge comfy bed, large bathroom & terrace which was the perfect sun trap. Huge pool, beautiful grounds with the most amazing views. Excursions, visits, quad tours, camel rides and other activities can be organised, with an additional cost through Françoise. We visited an amazing spa called AZur Art & Spa enjoying a traditional hamman & Aroma Tonic massage, a 2 hour quad trip in the dunes and the most amazing camel ride through the desert . All highly recommended. I can't reconmend this riad enough... pure paradise ... perfect place to relax & forget about the stresses of everyday life
