Bien ubicado. El personal es encantador, muy atento y hospitalario. El Riad es precioso, impresiona en persona.
Huele de maravilla. Por la noche encienden velas por el riad, son muy detallistas. Nos fueron a buscar a la parada de autobús y un señor nos transportó las maletas hasta el Riad. El desayuno muy bueno y completo.
De verdad, recomiendo este riad sin dudarlo.
Nos gustó todo.

Everything! This is our favourite place to stay when we visit essaouira. Youssef and all the staff who run the riad are so kind, friendly and accommodating. The riad and rooms are so clean - we have stayed in a few different rooms during our different stays and they are all different and beautiful. Breakfast is so fresh and delicious. The terrace is lovely too. We give this riad our highest recommendation and we will be back again soon on our next visit.

This was my second time at Dar Maya - and it was equally as lovely as the first! The rooms are cozy and well decorated - the heated floors in the bathroom are great. :) Essaouira is small, so you are not far from the beach or the main souks / restaurants. Thank you to Youssef and the rest of the Dar Maya staff.
Nothing, everything was perfect!

We stayed 2 nights here as we wanted to experience Riyad for the 1st time. It was an amazing experience. From check in to check out we had extremely wonderful time. It was more then our expectation. Special thanks to Youseff the reception staff to all the staff working there, were very friendly and kind which made our stay homely. Thank you to all at Dar Maya specially to Youseff. Hope to visit again soon.

Very nice riad, well decorated. The rooms are very comfortable, and the situation in the Medina is perfect.
I informed the staff a month in advance that I was vegan, they told me no problem for breakfast, but then they seemed a bit vague about it and I was offered only bread and fruits... A bit light on this side.

A bit hard to find the riad at night, though not far away from the main streets. No meat for breakfast.

Great staff, great Riad. Clean and well kept. The rooms are clean, lovely, and smell nice. The staff is sincere, kind, and truly helpful. Beautiful roof terrace where you can have your meals..where you hear and see the seagulls and sounds of the ocean.
