Memorable Three Night Sojourn
The staff was incredibly helpful at this lovely hotel... lending us a wheelchair when my aunt's knee went out. Breakfast buffet was superior. Their beach club restaurant across the street is quite nice and one of only a handful of eateries on the beach.

Decent hotel could improve by renovation.
Was a good stay overall, but it is not a 5* hotel probably a 3* as needs renovation to make it a higher standard. The staff are all hard working and made the stay pleasant especially the breakfast staff.
Breakfast was the same whole week not much change.
Would recommend as it’s across the road from the beach.

Beautiful property
Our stay was at the end of a 10 day drive around Morocco. We were so happy to arrive at this beautiful hotel for a couple of days of rest after a long journey around the country. Clean, modern, right on the beach. We couldn’t have asked for anything better. Highly recommend this hotel.

Pictures of rooms are a little deceiving of room sizes, but the rooms are okay but a bit overpriced for what you get and its a "five star" the breakfast is never fully stocked ever, no plates, utensils or food options, the pool is small and very crowded and services are limited, definitely over priced for what you get and definitely doesn't feel like a five star so overall it was an average place, nothing special.

Morocco wasn't good for a solo traveler who enjoys meeting travelers and locals. However, everyone was lovely, and it has many benefits for the resort/adventure travelers.

A great hotel allowing to enjoy swimming pool sheltered from the wind, private beach club and small spa, all within 5 min of the Medina !
Room was large with a nice balcony.
Breakfast had good option range and was ok but not great. The facilities would benefit from more maintenance but overall package was still worth the price.

Great location to beach and medina
Excellent hotel. Great location, clean, modern with good lighting in the room and bathroom. Our ocean view with small balcony was very nice. Walking distance to restaurants, attractions and the wide boardwalk and beach. Highly recommend. Note: the website pictures do not do this hotel justice! Pleasant surprise!

Incredible Hotel
This was probably the best hotel experience of our lives as a family. Incredible hotel, great design, amazing (and large) pool (open round the clock), the best possible location in Essaouira, a short walk into the heart of the old town, and on the beach. But the best thing of all - is the staff - going out their way to personalise your experience and excel in customer service. Very very good. Great holiday.

Great hotel with amazing staff (everyone is friendly and willing to help). The 5 min walk to the old town makes it a great location for quick dive into the world of tasty Moroccan food. The provocateur beach front and the pool provide plenty of opportunities to swim and chill.

The location is wonderful- a few minutes walk to the port and Medina. They have their own private section of the beach, with table and beverage service. Could be slow at times but the food was good. The rooms are large but a bit dated. We had ants and gnats in the room. Would also have appreciated larger bottles of the complimentary water in the room. Pool area is really nice. They also have a fitness center. Staff were pleasant. I few tweaks to the overall property upkeep would take this to the next level.

We visited Casablanca, Marrakech and Essaouira. I wish we had more time. I think this property was the best: big pool, big bright rooms, ocean across the road, cheap taxi, relaxing atmosphere...Very lovely.
