Beautiful hotel, excellent kitchen, very friendly and helpful staff.
Everything we had wished for.
Staff went beyond their duties in returning my phone back to my home address when I found out I had left it there.

I had a lovely stay before new year with friends. I am originally from Essaouira and took my English friends to Dar L'Oussia and they were very happy with the choice. The position is wonderful, the rooms were excellent - warm and comfortable - and only two minutes walk from the car park outside the walls.

Rajaa, the manager, was welcoming and looked after us very professionally, and the service throughout was first class.

Essaid

A group of us spent a happy three days at Dar L'Oussia at the end of 2012. Normally, riads in Essaouira can be damp but this one was warm and welcoming. The riad has been rebuilt within an ancient building and even has under-floor heating; very nice on winter nights in this windy resort. Adequate breakfasts on the roof terrace, nice when its sunny, but can be a bit windswept, and four flights up: not so good for the infirm.

Rooms comfortable, service and welcome warm, spa and hammam good value. Bar very pleasant although we took space by the logfire in the salon/dining room. The riad is wonderfully positioned, just inside one of the main gates to the medina, near the main square and virtually overlooking the sea and the port. Everything within walking distance.

All in all a good find, comfort paired with tradition. The whole experience represented good value and we will definitely return. Recommended!

We stayed there for about two weeks with two kids. The people working there were very friendly. The rooms service was good. The room and bathroom were cleaned everyday.

The restaurant situated in Riad was very nice. The meals very delicious and sphere and decoration was very authentic.

The Riad is situated in a very nice location, next to the beach and close to medina. I will recommend this place not only for singles but also for families with kids.
