Very nice apartment, well decorated by owners. We had a good time at dat 91, with a great service by the house manager naima. Only thing which could be better, was the bed. Overall we had a great stay here. The apt is located in the medina and close to the beach, restaurant etc.

We spent a wonderful week at Dar91 recently and can't wait to go back. The accommodation was clean, spacious and had an individuality that simply cannot be matched by hotels - in addition to which, not many hotels offer a private roof terrace for each guest! Dar91 is located within Essaouira's Medina so there are many many delights right outside... More

We can't heap enough praise on Paolo and Jeremy for their gorgeous accommodation and amazing hospitality. The same goes for Hakim and Naima, who balance unobtrusiveness with help when it's needed perfectly. We spent a month at Dar 91. We wish it could have been longer. The house is a feast of great decor and excellent facilities. Mornings on the... More

I found this property through WelcomeBeyond.com and made plans to come down solo late Feb-early March. Initially, I planned to stay for five days and trade two paintings for a discounted rate. I ended up staying ten days because I felt so at home in Dar 91. I also ended up creating five paintings, finishing a 600 pg book I'd... More

Just got home after the best holiday ever at this wonderful hideaway in Essaouria! Most amazing apartment which was a romantic hideaway right in the heart of this bustling town. From the moment we arrived we were well looked after, on arrival the hosts were there with mint tea bubbling away on the stove and some fruit and biscuits. The... More

Enjoyed 4 wonderful nights in Dar 91 Zhuzu. It is a beautiful building in good part of the city away from hustle but close enough for easy access. Host helper Hakim was fantastic and caring with good communication in French and make shift English. House is decorated beautifully, open fire was a delight at night and needed since the building...

If what you are seeking is an authentic Moroccan experience then this is the house for you. It is well away from the touristic side of town on a very typical Essaouiran alley only wide enough for a cart to pass. It is tall (4 floors high including the roof terrace), narrow and delightfully quirky, with it's eclectic mix of... More

The 'Hideaway' is its nickname and true to the title Dar 91 is tucked away in the Medina of Essaouira and would appeal to those of us who are looking to find a place we can call our own - even if it's for a few days. Down to the eclectic array of hand picked 'object d'art' that you'll find... More

Dar 91, Wahed (No 1, is a 3 floor "town house" located just within the NE Medina wall of Essaouira. Arriving by coach from Marrakech it was easy to find and get to from the Supratours office and using the instructions provided. Simply decorated and furnished it was clean and has all requirements for self contained and self catered (if... More

it's lovely to stay in Essaouira in a house in a local street rather than a riad on the main strip. The house is quirky, the owners lovely (who do great charity work in the town) and there is 'onsite' support from Niama, the housekeeper and Hakim who runs the owner's gallery downstairs. They'll both go over and above the... More

Additional Information about Dar 91

Address: 91 rue Chbanat, Essaouira, Morocco
Region: Morocco > Marrakech-Tensift-El Haouz Region > Essaouira
Hotel Style:
Ranked #42 of 135 B&Bs / Inns in Essaouira
Price range (per night): RM246 - 296
Official Description (provided by the hotel):
Dar 91 is light, airy and comfortable. It fuses old and new Moroccan and European styles, but without being slavish to any particular “look” or period. Unlike many Moroccan properties let out to tourists, Dar 91 does not feature a central courtyard - which can be a big advantage if you value your privacy, as you won't be sharing the house or roof terraces with other guests. We give 5% of our profits to local good causes, for example helping families pay for their children's education. ... more   less
