beautiful boutique hotel with good service

Dar Maya has been beautifully arranged and decorated giving a modern twist on Moroccan style. A real boutique hotel
Had a lovely big room with a comfy bed, clean and tidy and a good bathroom. Only niggle was the rather gloomy lighting.
Relaxing breakfast with a good range of quality items brought to the table.
Also enjoyed relaxing on the roof top where you can hear the waves from the nearby sea.

The Tignna Suite is a health hazard

TheTignna Suite is located on the 3rd floor under the roof terrace. It can rain in Essaouira, then the water runs down the wall in the Tignna Suite. The result is a wet, clammy indoor climate. No heating possibility. The other rooms seem ok.

Tranquility at Riad Dar Maya

What a beautiful Riad nestled in the heart of the Medina in Essaouira! We were welcomed in by friendly staff and greeted with coffee whilst we checked in. The Riad has a very welcoming feel and is surprisingly quiet when you know there is a lot hustle and bustle in the medina streets outside.
Our room was lovely, with a tranquil feel, bathroom was amazing and bed very comfortable. Very clean and great value for money.
What can we say about Youssef..... what a lovely manager! When my partner and I returned from dinner, I was greeted with the most amazing bunch of roses and a lovely note to celebrate my birthday. These kind gestures go along way and make you feel very special.
Breakfast was equally fantastic, with different breads and pastries, eggs, fruit and yoghurt, accompanied with delicious fresh orange juice and your choice of coffee or tea. There was no rush to go to breakfast either as breakfast served until late morning which is a win when you want that extra lie in.
Overall, my partner and I had a wonderful experience at the Riad Dar Maya and would definately recommend to anyone looking to visit Essaouira.

Brilliantly located on the edge of the medina. Walking distance of all sights and eateries.
A small boutique hotel with five rooms. Comfortable beds, WiFi, Nice continental breakfast. Staff very friendly and helpful. Rooftop terrace is relaxing and jacuzzi great.
Would happily return.

Warm and relaxing atmosphere

Great riad, warm cozy clean one of the best! Correct price.
Directions to restaurants on things to do, bravo! We will recommend it to friends. Too bad that we stayed only for one night.
