“This adults-only boutique hotel sits right in the heart of Essaouira's Old Medina, a location that genuinely shines. I appreciate that it's a refurbished space that still feels like a traditional riad, and the sun terrace offers a tranquil escape. The option to rent a bicycle makes exploring the area feel both easy and appealing.”
