Cozy apartment in the old Medina - Three Nights Cosy and sunfilled apartment located in the heart of the Medina. Azeddine greets you personally and is very responsive and caring for all your needs. The home was perfect for a couple of days; it seemed to have everything we needed, but we dined out for all meals, so we didn't need to cook. Below is a summary of the home: All linens and towels were clean Good mattress Location is excellent Heater Three flights of stairs It is decent but has a rustic open shower (no curtain or door) Dining Recommendations I recommend visiting this home and the cafes/restaurants nearby for excellent service and food. The Three Little Birds, Restaurant D'Jazy & La Coupole.

The menu features a delightful fusion of African and Moroccan flavours. I enjoyed a spiced coffee with a slice of sweet banana bread. The cafe attracts a diverse mix of travellers and locals, all enjoying the laid-back vibe. The friendly staff are eager to share their knowledge of the region's culture and history. Live music performances often fill the space, enhancing the cafe's unique ambience.

Caravane Cafe What a find, a fantastic hiding place away from the crowds. High-speed WIFI, wine, cocktails and delicious food, basically heaven. We ate or drank here 3 or 4 times during our visit.

D'Jazy It has a wonderful vibe. It is perfect for enjoying a great meal and cocktail while listening to live music or dancing the night away. It is a very comfortable restaurant/bar where you can sit back, chill out, and watch the village life pass you by; it is also the perfect spot for a sunset drink. Service is also impeccable, and the team is excellent, amicable, energetic and conversational.

La Coupole Essaouira beach - Multiple visits Great views and high-quality food. We loved La Coupole so much that we dined here four times in two weeks. The food was as high as the first time, and we even ordered the same dishes on most of our visits. While strolling along the beach, we stumbled across this beautiful spot and stopped for lunch. The lovely staff welcomed us and could take the front window table, with a view of the gorgeous ocean just for the two of us. We thoroughly enjoyed their wine collection (yes, we are Aussies!) and ordered the most delicious ravioli, followed by the perfect tomahawk steak to share! We were not disappointed. We even had a visit from Yassine, the chef, who we couldn't praise enough for cooking our meat perfectly. The day was so beautiful that we moved to the terrace to enjoy a few Negronis and the company of the locals who loved La Coupole as much as we did; we met them every visit. We even felt like locals. We got to know the lovely staff and are thankful for the warm welcome. You won't be disappointed in visiting La Coupole, from the great wine, warm service, good vibes, locals, and delicious food to one of the best views in Essaouira. Thank you for having us and for making our Christmas Day in Morocco one to remember.

Beautiful riad style house + sea view terrace - One Week From the moment you see the walled city that this sensational riad calls home to walking through the arch and entering Cite Portugaise, you can't help but get excited. Beautiful old buildings surround cobblestone lanes. The home is everything you imagined, and the rooftop is also stunning. We enjoyed seven nights at Reda's place and felt very at home, part of the community, and experiencing the culture. It was very cosy and traditional. The riad has everything you need; we cooked dinner a few nights, especially being so close to all the beautiful fresh food markets we needed to enjoy the local produce. A great wine shop is ten minutes away, where you can enjoy local wines with your dinner. The location is perfect; we walked around the city a few times and only caught a taxi once to Carrefour (the supermarket). It would be best to visit the nearby Hotel L'Iglesia for a lazy lunch in the sun and a sunset drink on the terrace. It's a hidden treasure with delicious food. Reda is a fabulous host; he and his father are very responsive and helpful and love sharing many local hotspots to visit. He speaks excellent English and even transferred us to our following location in Ouadilia for a fee, which was a beautiful drive along the coast. I highly recommend a stay at this beautiful riad. Enjoy a few days in El Jadida, exploring and eating to your heart's content.
