We stayed at Baoussala in early April, with a toddler and a baby. We were made very welcome despite the demands of our little people, and the staff couldn't do enough to help us. In fact the staff were brilliant all round. Baoussala has a lovely, relaxed feel, as if you have just stepped into a family home. It has... More

Baoussala is a charming place to stay, made so special by Dominique and her team which is led by Leah. The accommodation, food and surroundings are excellent and nothing is too much trouble. I arrived with a damaged walker - essential for my mobility - and this was fixed on site with miminum fuss. Thank you Dominique, Leah and staff... More

This Riad is about 12km from Essaouira in a walled compound of several small buildings. The accommodation is in traditional style, no TVs, no phones, and only a limited number of rooms. The main building is around a courtyard where breakfast is served, or you can have it on the extensive roof. Lunch can be ordered there too, and dinner... More

Recently returned from seven wonderful days at Riad Baussala. Dominique and Leah have created an oasis of sybaritic calm just outside the delightful historic fishing port of Essaouira. From the moment we arrived we felt we had come home. The children had the "romantic" red room because it is a triple. We had the smaller room next door. Mostly we... More

Our family of four stayed three nights at the Baoussala, and it wasn't enough. The accomodations and layout provide an aura of relaxed comfort - from the day-beds for sunning by the pool, to the quiet corners (inside and out) that are perfect for an evening glass of wine or breakfast. Dominique, Leah, Rachid and the other staff always greet... More

We arrived at Riad Baoussala after a busy week in Marrakech. As we wended our way down the long unpaved road at the end of the 2hr drive from the city looking for our inn, I confess I had my doubts. Morocco had been a dream destination for my wife since childhood, and the frenetic pace of our time in... More

What an amazing place! After a long journey and arriving late we felt like we had woken up in paradise the following morning. Breakfast can be taken in the courtyard, roof terrace or even in your room. Service is prompt and beautifully polite. Leah and Dominique make sure that they come and chat and make you feel welcome (but never... More
