Our apartment, a perfect blend of tradition and modern comfort, is the ideal starting point to explore this Moroccan gem. Feel at home in this hidden gem in the heart of Essaouira. The owner, with her passion for interior design, has created a welcoming and relaxing atmosphere, perfect for couples and independent travelers. The apartment is located in a quiet area, yet just a short walk from everything Essaouira has to offer: beaches, shops, restaurants, and the vibrant medina. You'll also have a private rooftop terrace, perfect for relaxing and soaking up the sun. Located on the second floor of a building without an elevator, the apartment is equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay: Wi-Fi, a fully equipped kitchen, washing machine, and more. It's not just a residence, but a real home, where the mix of Moroccan craftsmanship and Scandinavian simplicity will win you over. The beach is a few minutes' walk away, the medina is 15 minutes away, reachable by a beautiful seaside promenade. Below the apartment, you'll find all the essential shops: a pharmacy, a kitesurfing school, a laundry, bars, pizzerias, and excellent restaurants. The area is safe, touristy, and very lively. However, the apartment overlooks a quiet street. You will be welcomed by Ismail, the young owner of a successful real estate company, who can provide you with all the information you need. You will find a guest book with house rules (no smoking, no parties, no disturbing other guests) and other useful information. For Moroccan couples, a copy of the marriage certificate is required at the time of booking, as per regulations. Essaouira is a beautiful place that deserves a longer stay: in addition to the Medina (listed by UNESCO and the set of many famous films and series such as "Game of Thrones"), the kilometer-long beach, the new craft center, horseback riding or dromedary rides can be easily reached by bus or taxi: to the south, Sidi Kaouki, famous among surfers, the Sidi M'Barek waterfalls, and about a hundred kilometers away, the Paradise Valley. To the north, you will find wild beaches and small fishing villages, while Safi, the city of potters and the provincial capital, can be reached in a couple of hours by car. And of course, Marrakech, reachable in about 2.5 hours by car or by bus in three hours." ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby - Beach loungers ### Internet - Available in the apartment: Free WiFi ### Kitchen - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Hob - Refrigerator ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - Upper floors accessible by stairs only - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital ### Things to do - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby ### Safety features - No carbon monoxide detector or gas appliances (host has indicated there are no carbon monoxide detectors or gas appliances on the property) - No smoke detector (host has indicated there is no smoke detector on the property) ### General - Unit size: 592 square feet ## Similar properties ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/1000000/800000/795500/795436/ea9c1d38.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Le Médina Essaouira Thalassa Sea & Spa - MGallery Collection Essaouira Coast - On private beach - Pool - Hot tub - Spa 8.6 Excellent 684 reviews £114 includes taxes & fees 30 Mar - 31 Mar [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-30&endDate=2026-03-31&selected=795436&PinnedHotelID=795436&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Restaurant](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/120000000/119760000/119750300/119750204/c95e88e5.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cruiser Mogador Hospitality Essaouira - Pool - Breakfast included - Parking included - Free Wi-Fi 9.8 Exceptional 15 reviews £69 includes taxes & fees 29 Mar - 30 Mar [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-29&endDate=2026-03-30&selected=119750204&PinnedHotelID=119750204&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Superior Double or Twin Room, Private Bathroom (Vue Ville/Patio)](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/4000000/3850000/3848400/3848355/871ef605.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Villa Garance Medina - Spa - Free Wi-Fi - Restaurant - Laundry room 9.2 Wonderful 151 reviews £92 includes taxes & fees 30 Mar - 31 Mar [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-30&endDate=2026-03-31&selected=3848355&PinnedHotelID=3848355&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Breakfast, lunch, dinner served;
