The best position in Essaouira as it is on a wide pedestrian avenue but already inside the Medina, therefore in the town centre but with a lot of space outside. All the hotel has a typical moroccan style with a lot of wonderful plants. The roof has an amazing view and it is possible to eat from 12:00. The breakfast room is in a comfortable area with a view on a wide pedestrian avenue inside the Medina. The staff was so kind, sweet, discreet, smiling and always helpful. After four nights we were sad to leave this place which we will always keep in our heart and soul. There is also a historical background because Orson Welles stayed in this hotel when he shot the film Otello, hence the name 'Palazzo'.

This is by far the best hotel stay we’ve had in ages - never been met with such hospitality. We came here to kite surf, and the lovely and accommodating staff were to helpful with everything (they even let us use the surf shop next door to store and clean our kites). The breakfast was delicious. We even arrived right after a recent renovation period, and were as a result the only guest at the hotel for a few days, and the staff even gave us a free upgrade. We had the pleasure of staying at the honeymoon suite with a ocean view - simply perfect. Couldn’t have asked for a better stay, and can’t wait to be back. And have to mention the beautiful garden as well!

Such an amazing spot right on the beach. The host was super friendly and shared great stories about the place and the adorable animals there. My girlfriend and I are vegan/vegetarian, and they made the best food we had in our whole trip. The room was clean, comfy, and nicely decorated. We even asked to stay a bit longer to walk the dogs on the beach no problem at all. Just a dream location. Wish we could’ve stayed longer!

The photos don’t do this hotel justice! The grounds are stunningly beautiful with gorgeous stonework and lovely flowers everywhere. Even a resident peacock! We were upgraded to a huge two bedroom ‘maison’ at check in which was fantastic with its own central courtyard. The rooms were clean, comfortable and well equipped. The range of foods at breakfast and dinner was good and the tagines at dinner time were delicious. The restaurant staff were great! We didn’t get a chance to try the spa unfortunately but the pool was lovely, the perfect temperature. We really enjoyed our stay!

Amazing stay! The park is very peaceful and green, never slept better than here. We had the whole building for our own with a fireplace in the night and a fully equiped kitchen. The place was very clean and comfortable, they thought of every detail. The owner Mohammed is so kind, he did everything to make our stay fantastic. When I left my sweater he even brought it to our next Riad in Essaouira.

I chose this place for fresh seafood, as advertised.

I chose this place for fresh seafood, as advertised. What I had was an awful, almost-poisonous, life-threatening experience, as my fresh, chosen purchase of tiger prawns had been replaced by rotten ones by the fishmonger. It could have happened while I was struggling to count their foreign money out of my pocket. I ended up being in an embarrassing situation with the apartment owner when I cooked the prawns and polluted the whole building with a foul smell of rotten seafood. I chucked them all out in the bin, and I lost my appetite for the rest of my stay in Morocco. I should have listened to what my friends were saying about this place.

A hidden little gem!! The local people and the magical vibe of this place will stay in our hearts for along time! I accidentally booked our family to stay here instead of Essoauria and did not regret it for one minute. We loved it here and with our car we were able to drive to Essoauria easily.

There's some local shops about 7 mins from the hotel, but you would need a taxi/ car to visit. Quite basic shops/coffee places for a more authentic village experience, but the main attraction is Essaouira which is a further 10 mins by car.

The medina is lovely.

The medina is lovely. You can walk around freely with no one hassling you to come into their shop. The locals are lovely and so helpful. The variety of places to eat, have a coffee or just sit and watch are plentiful and its great to wander down all the narrow passageways and discover what is around the next corner. Its safe, easy to get around and Id return in a heartbeat. There is a main shopping street outside the medina where you can find the shops that sell alcohol and more fruit and vegetables. The port has an active fish market but there is fresh fish and a small fish market inside the medina too. The beach is lovely with sunbeds to rent and vendors walking up and down selling tea, biscuits etc. You get asked but you do not get harrassed. Its great.
