"Conveniently located minutes from the Suprabus terminal and close to the and swimming beach. Features a nice rooftop retreat away from the calamity of the Medina. The vibe is along the lines of “bohemian” casual comfort which one might expect from a beachside setting. Beach towels are loaned out if a dip in the nearby ocean is on the agenda. Rooms have small fireplaces (did not enquire about use). Much enjoyed our stay here after Marakesh and Fes. Attentive staff."

"The place is run down. No elevators. My When we arrived I thought the hotel was closed, the facade was so poorly maintained. When I checked in I was made aware that I had to pay 1000 dhm accidental deposit but nowhere was that mentioned when I made the reservation. I booked a premium room, it was nothing premium over looking a very busy street and no A/C . My room was not clean by housekeeping. Poor breakfast. Staff nice.
I will not be coming back neither recommending it. Very overpriced and...

Villa Quieta in Essaouira was definitely one of the most beautiful hotels I've ever stayed. When you enter you are greeted with Moroccan beauty from all angles. The staff was also top notch, going above and beyond for our satisfaction. We didn't even arrive there until about 4 am, and there was someone up waiting for us so that we could get right in and get to bed upon arrival. Breakfast is delicious and served in their gorgeous dining area. The grounds are lovely with a beautiful in-ground pool...

Attention to detail was great! In addition to great water pressure and temperature in the shower, the bed was comfortable, there was a safe in the room, a large water for us , and rose petals strewn everywhere!

The property was beautiful, the room was clean, the staff were kind and helpful, and the breakfast was excellent. My only complaint is that the only place to sit outdoor and enjoy the gardens is the pool/dining area, which is always very busy. The pictures make it appear that there are other outdoor areas to sit and read a book, for example, but that is not the case. NOTE: If you want a calm, relaxing holiday, this is NOT the hotel for you. Even in the off season it is full of families with...
