It features a flowery patio with an Andalusia fountain and the larges terraces where you can relax in the sun.

With its ocean front view, a top-notch maid service and dedication to exceptional service, the Riad Chems Bleu is a jewel of Essaouira. Very good location inside the old town - not on the crowdy streets. .Welcoming staff especially Soufian was very kind and helpful. Room very nice and clean but a bit small. Room was always very clean after room service. Good idea to have the breakfast on the terrace, where you have excelent view.

RIAD YANITRI Piscine chauffée offers a solarium, as well as air-conditioned accommodation in Essaouira, 11 km from Golf de Mogador. The property features pool and garden views. There is a restaurant serving Moroccan cuisine, and free private parking is available. My family and I recently had the pleasure of staying at this stunning place just 15 minutes from the heart of Essaouira, and I can’t recommend it highly enough. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warm Moroccan hospitality, and every detail of our stay exceeded expectations. The highlight for us was definitely the heated swimming pool—a rare luxury in this area! Whether it was a refreshing morning dip or a relaxing evening swim under the stars, the temperature was always perfect. The setting was incredibly peaceful and picturesque. Our bungalow was spacious, immaculately clean and beautifully decorated. The beds were comfortable, and we appreciated the quiet, serene environment—a welcome break from the bustle of the medina. Breakfasts were generous and delicious, with local produce, fresh breads, and amazing Moroccan mint tea. The on-site restaurant also offered an excellent selection of Moroccan and international dishes. Staff went above and beyond to make us feel at home. The hosts Jeremy and Yousra were exceptionally helpful. If you’re looking for a luxurious, peaceful retreat with easy access to Essaouira, this property is the perfect choice. We left feeling relaxed, rejuvenated, and already planning our return!

Organised out trip to the dromedaries and horse rides at the Ranch Diabat, where we saw the most beautiful sunset! The King Suite overlooking the ocean was unique and full of character. Coming in and out of the Riad felt like home, with Hamid and Zara welcoming us every time! Their recommendations for local restaurants and real traditional experiences around the Medina were always in spot! We always knew where to go! This is definitely a must if you’re ever in Essaouira!!
