Further details for this vacation house rental in Essaouira, Morocco

Reviews : We had a lovely time in Essaouira, your Riad is beautiful and it was just the break we needed! I know you hear it all the time but your maid is a fabulous cook! I hope to stay again in the near future. J Saunders Feb 2007. I really loved the house and Nourdeddine. I will stay there again it was better than I thought it was going to be and I really loved the house. Thank you for everything. C Bodendorfer Jan 2007 Kathy says: 'I could not recommend this property highly enough - the photos currently on the site don't do it justice. We spent nine days there with our two children, so there was plenty of spare space. It's been beautifully restored, all amenities work properly and the maid is fab. Try her couscous. Even the beds were really comfortable! Attention to detail was spot-on, even the hairdryers were good quality (not that you'll use them - you'll wind down within an hour of arrival and not bother with all that!). Just go. Nov 2006

Review Jan 2007: Our stay at Darsal exceeded my expectations in every way - as did everything about beautiful Morocco! The riad is gorgeous and really well decorated. Bathrooms are great - no problems with hot water like in most other places I stayed in Morocco. Aeida was lovely and cooked us a beautiful tagine and breakfast every morning. We had such a great stay, Would love to come back one day. Erin March 2008 Possibly the most beautiful riad in Essaouira. Jaw-dropping, in fact. Floor after floor of an Arabian Night dream, as one of my friends described it, decorated in warm traditional style but with all the comforts of modern life. And in a very central location too, we never had to walk more than a few minutes everywhere. The maid is lovely and such a good cook that I do recommend discerning holidaymakers to lunch/dine in as much as possible rather then go out to restaurants. Noureddine, the agent, speaks excellent English and offered really useful advise. Cosimo London

Reviews Oct 2006: We had a wonderful time in your generous and beautiful house, which feels more like a home than a holiday rental. We loved the abundance of pottery, the magical lighting, the perfect proportions, the roof terrace in the morning and the log fires in the evening. Noureddine, Faoud and Aouida took care that we got everything we wanted or needed. George March 08 'A beautiful Riad in the enchanting fishing port town of Essaouira. Having a property manager and maid available to assist guests staying at Darsal made it that much more enjoyable. The beach is wonderful with the softest sand. The Riad came equipped with children's books, games, sand toys and a soccer ball and all were thoroughly enjoyed by our children. The riad is centrally located amongst the local homes within the medina which gives it a very authentic feel. While the exterior is very plain and simple, the interior is beautifully renovated and decorated. The roof top terrace with a breezy, bright bedroom was my favourite!

Guest Book: Thank you, we all had a fantastic time in Essaouira- everyone was very friendly, we were really quite sad to leave. We really fell in love with the place, and intend to return Oct '08. Aeida is a wonderful person, she helped make our stay very special indeed. Your house is lovely, we particulary loved the terrace, and truly enjoyed our stay there. Once again, thank you very much. K Willaims August 07. The riad was lovely - loads of room to spread out and find some peace and who would of thought that behind the front door there would be such a haven of tranquillity right in the middle of the medina? Ayeda lived up to her reputation and cooked what were probably the best meals we had whilst in Morocco. Nourredine was very helpful in setting up the excursions and providing some local insights. We had a really good holiday and we shall certainly come back to Essaouira. Thanks once again for the use of your riad - we had a very memorable and enjoyable holiday and we would like to retur

Other Activities: land yatching, kite surfing, camel riding, historic sites, small traditional port, souks, hamman, 4x4 off roading and quad biking
