Nice little riad close to everything. Nice breakfast and friendly staff. Only downside is that it's close to a club, so if you like to enjoy a few drinks till 1:30 am it's a great location, if you are a light sleeper you might find it difficult to sleep before 1:30 am

We had such a good stay at Dar Loulema! Our family of four stayed in a larger room with a private terrace, overlooking the sea. The room was beautifully designed, with a modern nautical theme and separate spaces for parents and for kids. Pure fantasy! The breakfasts on the terrace were a treat, and the staff was so nice. It was also conveniently located - close to everything while being easy to get to. There was some noise from the nearby club and mosque, but with earplugs, no issue at all. Would highly recommend!!

Ok but would not be my first choice staff lovely !
Staff very friendly ! Not too impressed with the room very basic smell of dampness continually despite been supplied with an oil filled radiator thank goodness for heat ! Breakfast ok but too cold to be served outside on the terrace was not my first choice as other booking cancelled our stay spent 2 nights instead of 3 booked !

Disappointed
Condition of the hotel is much worse than we ecpected. The smell of humidity in the room was awful. The owner wants to leave the room key in unatendet place where other guests have access to it. The place doesnt look like the photos show. It doesnt worth the price.

Enttäuschende Aufenthalt. Nie wieder
Wir haben einen Suite Duplex gehabt, es hat gestunken nach nasse täppische. Das Riad ist neben einem Club, das heisst laute Live Musik und DJ jeden Abend bis mindestens 1.30 Uhr. wir haben reklamiert. Die Mitarbeitenden wissen Bescheid und sind machtlos weil der Club den gleichen Inhaber wie den Riad gehört. also für ruhigen Ferien ist es nicht der ideale Ort. Frühstück ist ok. Marokkanische galette und die Croissants sind trocken.

Amazing Riad. I have stayed at many riad’s in Morocco over the years and this one is by far the best. Property upkeep is amazing, small touches like fresh flowers don’t go unnoticed, and the staff are amazing!

Hotel muy bonito y bien situado.
El hotel es precioso y la terraza es un gran punto positivo. Puedes ver toda la ciudad y el mar. El único pero es la cercanía de los bares nocturnos con rooftop ya que se puede oír algo la música.

Hôtel charmant et calme, avec une belle décoration et des terrases exceptionnelles. Personnel agréable et attentionné. Bon emplacement au coeur de la ville avec une merveilleuse vue sur la mer! Un bon service de petit déjeuner.

Paradise in Essaouria
My husband and I couldn't have anticipated a more fabulous experience. The owner and staff were the friendliest and kindest hosts. They even served us breakfast after the set time frame and said they considered us family. We stayed in the Belem room with a private terrace that has incredible ocean views. The bed was very comfortable and the room plenty spacious. The rooftop view was equally amazing, plus it gave an additional view of the restaurant adjacent to the riad which allowed for viewing and listening to their music, and city views of incredible moonlit evenings. The house cats were very friendly and would often pay a visit if we invited them inside. Overall it was a week in paradise. We highly recommend this riad.

Beautiful Essaouria Sanctuary
Absolutely LOVED our stay at Loulema! Breakfast on the roof terrace, gorgeous plants and such lovely accommodating staff- couldn't have asked for a better hotel. Right in the center of everything but tucked away and super quiet so you never feel like you're sleeping in the middle of the square. Will stay here again in a heartbeat!!!
