INCLUDED IN THE STAY:
Hotel linen (sheets, towels, pool tops) · shower gel and shampoo · private parking · WiFi · personalised French/English welcome.

YASSINE— the experience that makes the difference
There are trips that we forget. And there are others that are still told years later, around a table.

Every morning, enjoy a breakfast carefully prepared by Yassine: tea, coffee, jam, honey, butter, Moroccan bread, Msmens or Baghirs (a thousand hole pancakes)

- A particular desire or allergy? Report it before your arrival, we will adapt.

Yassine is much more than a cook. He is a transmitter of culture.
Anyone who knows the Essaouira market like the back of their hand, who knows which fishmonger arrives first at the port in the morning, which spice changes everything in a tagine, how long exactly you have to work the dough of a pastilla so that it becomes something extraordinary.
With him, you have the choice of your experience.
You can watch him do it. You can ask him all the questions. Or better yet — you can put on an apron, and cook with him.

WANT TO THINK ABOUT NOTHING?
What Yassine can prepare or teach you:
fish tagine with Essaouira saffron, chicken and almond pastilla, Friday vegetable couscous, crispy briouates with goat cheese and honey, ceremonial mint tea, homemade msemen and meloui.
