About this property

Located in the heart of Essaouira’s medina, just 200 metres from the beach, Dar Loulema offers guest accommodation and a rooftop terrace with views of the port and Mogador Island. The individually decorated guest rooms at Dar Loulema feature traditional Moroccan furnishings. They each offer a seating area and an en suite bathroom with a shower and mosaic tiles. Breakfast is served each day at Dar Loulema and can be enjoyed on the terrace when the weather is nice or in the dining room with a fireplace. Guests are invited to relax in the Moroccan-style living room where free Wi-Fi is available or on the terrace offering panoramic views of the surrounding area. Dar Loulema is located 200 metres from the port area. Moulay Hassan Square is 100 metres away. I have just learned that from September 28 to October 2 will take place the Moga Festival in Essaouira (electro music); 1 of the stages being located right next to the Riad, there will be a lot of noise and vibrations until at least 2 a.m.)

Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.1 for a two-person trip.

The location is superb, and the staff is wonderful. The breakfast was delicious. We stayed in the large, comfortable Belem apartment on the top floor, which was very spacious. The breakfast on the rooftop was magnificent.

The atmosphere was incredible - calming and light - and the staff were super friendly. We had to leave early on our last morning but we were still given a breakfast of hot coffee and pancakes. Thanks for a lovely stay!
