Riad is situated in very heart of old town, near beaches, shops, sightseeing's and cafes. At the same time it is very quiet and comfortable places. Staff is very friendly and helpful, Simo met us in the entrance to the old town and helped us to get to Riad, he was at our disposal whatever we needed.

Very clean. In a good location inside the Medina. Really easy to walk everywhere. The bed was so comfortable and it was quiet. The staff were very friendly and helpful especially Hakim and Abdulrahman. Breakfast was very nice and the eating areas plus the whole Riad were so beautiful and tastefully decorated. They will also make dinner for you if you don't feel like going outside to the many restaurants. Highly recommended!!

We absolutely loved Dar Dayana - great interior, comfortable (our room - turquoise, even had a nice seating area outside!) and really nice bathroom. We liked combination of traditional Moroccan style with some funky artwork. It is such a peaceful and relaxed accommodation with great breakfast. We stayed in February when a lot of roads gets cold, but here it was nice and warm. Definitely the place to stay in lovely Essaouira. Friendly and very helpful owners (we forgot something there and they are helping us to get things shipped). Thanks for everything!

Staying at this Riad was more than just accommodation—it was an unforgettable experience. By far, it is one of the best places we've ever stayed. From the moment you arrive, you're welcomed by the warm and exceptional staff, who go out of their way to make you feel completely at home. Their thoughtful recommendations for local restaurants and hidden gems to explore truly elevated our stay. The Riad itself is brimming with character and charm. While it has hosted some of Hollywood’s most famous stars, what makes it truly special are the people who run it. They pour their heart into every detail, creating an atmosphere that feels more like being part of a family than a guest. And then there’s the Hammam and Spa—simply the best we experienced in Morocco. It’s the perfect retreat after a day of exploring Essaouira’s vibrant streets. If you're looking for a place that offers not only luxury but also a deep sense of warmth and belonging, this Riad is an absolute must. If we ever come back to Morocco, it will be because of our exceptional experience at Essaouira and at Riad Watier.

classic old school elegance. beautiful hotel with incredible staff who can’t do enough for you. The older porter in particular was the loveliest man. we had a problem with an aircon leak at night and were immediately moved into a new upgraded room. Roof top was brilliant with very comfortable sun loungers. breakfast had a great choice. Courtyard a lovely area to relax.
