Ryad Watier

10/10 Excellent

"My wife and I had a very relaxed and pleasurable stay at Riad Watier. The staff (Fatiha, Hayat, and Nusha) were extraordinarily helpful and attended to our every wish. The Riad is quiet, which was very nourishing to our souls. Also, Essaouira is less touristy than other Moroccan destinations, which makes making a choice for a relaxed vacation ideal. I would highly recommend Riad Watier!"

Riad Chbanate

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at Riad Chbanate. The rooms are spacious, comfortable, and beautifully maintained, but what truly makes this place special is the exceptional staff. A heartfelt thank you to Hisham, Gregie (apologies if I’ve misspelled your name), Samira, and the entire team. Everyone was incredibly welcoming, accommodating, and genuinely committed to making our stay enjoyable. The breakfast was excellent, and the Moroccan tea was some of the best we had during our trip. The location is ideal if you prefer being closer to the beach. The main medina and other attractions are about a 10–13 minute walk away, which we found very manageable. We highly recommend Riad Chbanate to anyone visiting Essaouira. Thank you again to the entire team for your outstanding hospitality!"
