I wish I could replicate Chez Dar Ma back home ... the beautifully spacious rooms, gorgeous Moroccan decor and inviting French doors. We felt very much at home especially as we had Hassan and Halima to look after us and Juju, the cat, for company. The riad is close to everything you need but it really is difficult to tear... More

I have stayed at a couple of places in Essaouira and this is THE BEST I have experienced. We stayed for 3 nights and while it is not in the center of the medina (which we knew) we really enjoyed the short stroll back through laid back Essaouira to the Riad every night. The rooms are large and bathrooms are... More

This was my favorite city and B&B during our Morocco trip in April. At the last minute I had a hunch we were going to love it so I changed our visit from one night to two and I'm so happy that I did.

It was odd finding a plane ticket from Morocco back to Amsterdam in my bag since during my stay at Riad Dar Ma I had come to believe that this was in fact my new home. I had a front door key and came and went as I pleased, the bed was just as comfy as a bed should be... More
