Location and Accommodation

Essaouira sets itself apart from the hectic energy of Marrakesh, truly allowing you to retreat to a charming, cultural escape. The historic Medina, the majestic ramparts, the beach, the culture, the nature … once you enter Essaouira, you will fall in love with the charm and beauty of the city.

Riad Kafila, a traditional Moroccoan home, will be your home for four nights. A calm oasis, just steps away from the markets, bustling restaurants and a few minutes walk to the harbor and kilometers of soft sand beaches…you have everything you need for a relaxing retreat of culture and connection.
