Pros:

A pearl in the Medina indeed. A wonderful room, facing the pounding Atlantic, with easy access to all of Essaouira. The breakfast was a great start to the day. My hamman and massage -- like my wife's pedicure and facial -- were refreshing, relaxing and effective. Add the amazing staff, and we'd come here anytime Essaouira calls.

Pros:

We stayed in the Riad Perle D’eau for two nights and loved it so much that we booked four more.

Firstly, if you have never strayed in a riad then DO IT. They are like Doctor Who’s Tardis., A small unassuming entrance and then boom, inside an oasis of beauty. Only a handful of rooms , built around a central core with lots of nooks and crannies just waiting to be discovered

What a beautiful location. As I pen this I am sitting in the upper terrace, watching the sun rise over the ocean and listening to the sea crashing on the rocks below

What great staff , the wonderful Ishmael with his welcoming smile and helpful thoughts, the marvellous Cabrera who organised for us a Hamman something or other and then a transcendental massage. I didn’t learn the name of everybody and feel guilty for that but without exception, everybody was so welcoming and, when far from home, that made out little hotel feel like home

Did I forget to mention the breakfast, with so many things to choose from and such as selection of fine nibbles

We were lucky enough to stay in a suite overlooking the ocean and sipped a white wine while listening to Adele singing about when she was young and watching the people frolic on the beach below

For me an easy ten out of ten

Lovely Riad with beach views
Pros:

I only stayed one night but the staff was so friendly and welcoming. The riad was beautiful inside and so was the room. Sheets and bedding covers may need renewals as there were markings of old stains. I was not in doubt that it was clean though and it wouldn’t abstain me from visiting again. The breakfast was lovely and the view from the roof amazing just by the beach.

Pros:

Our stay could not have been more perfect. Check-in was easy and the receptionist spoke English fluently. She helped us coordinate an early check out the next morning as well as a porter to meet us at 5 AM to bring our items to the parking area and meet our taxi. The staff is very diligent, and the property is gorgeous. We had a room that had an ocean view and we were able to listen to the waves crash throughout the night. The shower is incredible and high-end toiletries are provided. I would definitely stay there again and would recommend this property to anyone.

Great location, but ...
Pros:

Great location, and very nice people. But the room was dark and mildewy, and the breakfast service was poor. Plus, the power went off, and they made us pay extra expenses in cash.

Disappointed
Pros:

The hotel is in need of complete refurbishment it is tired and the plaster is falling off the walls in places. The rooms were far below what was expected and were a massive disappointment. We mainly booked this hotel due to the views but this was only from the rooftop. The facilities were also not as advertised and did not exist! Overall it was a dreadful 3 nights and I would not recommend staying. The spa was also one of the worst experiences although the therapists were very good.

Location good for getting anywhere in the Medina. Excellent view out to sea from our room. Room a bit tired and gloomy, breakfast average. Staff helpful.
