Séjour exceptionnel dans ce magnifique riad décoré avec beaucoup de goût et offrant un confort parfait. Nous avons été accueillis avec une grande gentillesse et nous nous sommes sentis comme à la maison dès notre arrivée.Un immense merci à Fathia qui nous a régalés chaque jour avec ses repas absolument succulents : une cuisine généreuse, authentique et pleine de saveurs. Chaque repas était un vrai moment de plaisir et de découverte.Le riad est idéalement situé pour profiter du charme d’Essaouira, tout en offrant un cadre calme et reposant. Tout était impeccable : propreté, confort, accueil et ambiance chaleureuse.Nous repartons avec de merveilleux souvenirs et l’envie de revenir très vite. Une adresse que nous recommandons les yeux fermés !

Prachtig groot huis met heel veel zorg en gevoel voor stijl verbouwd. Fijne sfeer. We hebben er heerlijk geslapen. Alles verder dichtbij. Essouiera is magisch! Fathia heeft ons een Tajine leren koken. Een mooie kennismaking met de Marokkaanse cultuur, gewoontes. Het heeft onze vakantie een gouden randje gegeven. We hebben van alles genoten.
