We booked 4 riads, while travelling in Morocco, all were good, but this one is totally the best! Beautiful design, friendly stuff, good breakfast on the sunny rooftop terrace with beautiful ocean view. Room had much space and the balcony. Location is also very good. I would definately stay there again!

The rooms are beautifully decorated and the bed and pillows are very comfortable, the location of the Raid is excellent. The raid has a very nice terrace where you can eat breakfast. Breakfast was very tasty and included omelette as well as the normal breads etc. The Raid is run by a lovely family who were so friendly and helpful. I would totally recommend this Raid if you are staying in Essaouira.

Riad Al Manara is a gorgeous accommodation and we had a wonderful stay all around. The room was beautiful, spacious and comfortable, everything was incredibly clean, the location was amazing, Corinne and her staff were very kind and we received great tips about restaurants, rooftops and little shops.

- Mama Lova is in a great location. It's in a very central area of Essaouira, but nicely tucked away so that you don't feel overwhelmed by the hustle and bustle. - The space is beautifully renovated and clean. - The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. They are all smiles, and that is very appreciated. - There were no other guests in the riad while we were there, so we had the entire space to ourselves. - The terrace is beautiful and offers amazing views of the city. - The wifi/wi-fi good enough to take work calls. A family member was able to work remotely there without issues. The wifi speed is between 7 and 11 mpbs. One would think it's not a lot but it was not an issue. Hopefully in the future they can make it faster. - Breakfast is great. Good assortment of breads and spreads, tea, juice, and eggs in the style of your choosing. - We took the family deluxe suite with four beds, for three people. Each person could have their own space and a degree of privacy which was nice.

    A beautiful, traditional Riad which was full of authentic typical Morocco decor and lots of lovely green plants. Very nicely done rooms that were colorful and cosy. I'd absolutely want to come back and stay here again. The staff were very friendly and gave lots of great information too. The breakfast was delicious too, and plenty of it :)

    Very friendly and helpful staff. Despite being located in a busy street of the Medina, when the doors of this riad opens, the noise stays out. The courtyard has some jungle vibes with beautiful plants hanging from the top floor. Breakfast is simple but fresh and good.

    Amazing riad in a very central yet quiet location of Essaouira. Very tastefully designed with plenty of local art pieces. The owner is very friendly and makes you feel at home even when you are staying there for one night only (my case). Special kudos to the traditional moroccan breakfast on the terrace!
