Where to stay in Essaouira

The Port of Essaouira is not only home to many fishing boats and vessels, it is a popular tourist attraction and has a significant and interesting history attached to it. Fishing is done for local distribution and plays a significant role in the atmosphere and lure to the port. The Essaouira port is not used for commercial traffic and this has enabled it to retain its authenticity and breathtaking charm.

Got one of the ocean view room and the view is gorgeous. Great location, short walk to the medina for shopping and photos. The room was spacious and clean. Although not an brand new condition, the upkeep is good. If we come back, we'd stay here again.
