Our son was getting married in a nearby Riad and he recommended the Villa Gonatouki for our stay. From our first contact Bruno was the perfect host, always helpful and quick to respond. Yes it is somewhat remote but this adds to its charm and attraction. An amazing building with very comfortable rooms and extensive communal areas,

Ill keep my review short and simple, being very pragmatic: - i like the location as its less than 10min drive to the Medina of Essaouira, and close enough to the golf and the airport. - the view from the villa is just splendid as its a bit on the heights of the hill - The villa itself, is not...

My wife and I loved everything about the Gonatouki villa. The design of the villa is astonishing. The view is breathtaking. There are 2 swimming pools in case one was not enough. Location is very convenient as it is less than 10 minutes from the downtown of Essaouira. We will definitely stay again in Gonatouki if we go back to... More

This is a wonderful, wonderful place. It is a spectacular property with beautiful rooms and an amazing outlook. My wife and I stayed 3 nights in May and we hardly wanted to leave the house because it was so good. First, I must mention the customer service. Bruno is such a charming host and does everything he can to make... More

Gonatuki is such an amazing place ! Lets first talk about the location, you might be worrying at first as the mansion is located at the end of a very 'traditional' and desert road. But the little trip (5mn from the main road) is definitly worth it ! The view and panorama cant be compared to anything else in the... More

We had an amazing 4 nights with Bruno and team with our ten month old daughter in April. The villa was so peaceful and the huge main rooms were a great place for a wee one to explore. Bruno makes this place feel like you are staying in his home and nothing is a problem. We asked for a room... More

My husband and I had an amazing time here. Bruno is lovely and you will feel very welcome at the villa. Amazing baths in the rooms that we had and all the rooms are spacious and comfortable. The villa is big, so much space to relax. You can meet other people that are staying or be private. All the people... More

The whole team was really pleased to accommodate you. You're right you met very nice people. In fact the bigest majority of people who come here are very nice.

It is difficult to express in words what an amazing hotel the Villa Gonatouki was. The owner and staff of the hotel make you feel like at home, but unlike home there is nothing you have to do whilst you are there. We go traveling many times a year and it is therefore hard for a hotel to surprise us... More

Thank you very much Simon. We were so pleased to meet you with Dominik. And I'm very happy because you met Lucie and Emma too. They told me, if one of them go to Zurich, she will call you. One of our objective is that guests met others and stay in touch after. It's done! Isn't it too difficult to... More

I stayed here for two nights with my boyfriend and parents just before Christmas and had such a wonderful stay - my only regret is that we couldn't stay for longer. It's definitely one of those places where you want a day just to relax around the villa. The place itself and the grounds it's on are just beautiful and... More

This is the most beautiful B&B house we've ever stayed in. Bruno and his architect did a superb job in creating a sense of luxury using traditional Moroccan architecture with a modern, airy, touch. Our room was large and very comfortable. Bruno was warm, helpful and inviting, and we enjoyed listening to his stories. His passion for the place, the... More
