Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Out of town — The riad is a 10-minute drive from Dar Sultan Palace and a short ride from the city, so you'll need transport to explore Essaouira itself.
  • Limited check-in window — Check-in is only between 14:00 and 21:00, which may be restrictive for late arrivals.
  • Lower facilities score — The facilities rating is the lowest category at 7.5, though the pool and spa are still well regarded.
