Photos and Description of the Essaouira vacation villa rental Self-catering villa rental with maid service, 5 minutes from beach

The sound of tinkling water from the rose petal strewn marble fountain greets visitors as they step across the threshold into this oasis of calm. Situated in a prime location within the Medina, close to shops and restaurants and only a short stroll away from the beach, this self-catering Riad has been lovingly designed to create an attractive and welcoming environment.3 bedrooms, all with en suite bathrooms, and a small nursery accommodate up to 6 adults & 1 small child. There are 2 salons,1 with a dining area, and a well equipped kitchen. This is a great base from which to indulge in some of the action packed sports on offer, such as kite surfing, quad-biking and camel riding or to just soak up the sun on the roof terrace, on the beach or in one of the many inviting cafes in the picturesque historic town. From groups of friends to romantic twosomes, every visitor will feel the magic of this beautiful holiday house. Rates include breakfast and maid service.

Notes: The house is spread over 3 floors plus a further leading to the top roof terrace, it is therefore not suitable for anyone, young or elderly, unsteady on their legs.

There are two eating areas, one with a hatch to the kitchen and within the main salon, the other out on the terrace. Tea, coffee or drinks can be taken in either of the two salons or outside. Apart from the kitchen, there is also a small kitchenette/tea kitchen on the ground floor and the house boasts three fridges to ensure cold drinks at any time, upstairs or downstairs. Smoking is not permitted inside the house but there is ample space on the roof terraces. The open central well of the house (covered in winter) allows for fresh air and day light to circulate. Lunch or dinner can be arranged independently with the housekeeper.

Further details for this vacation villa rental in Essaouira, Morocco

How to get to Essaouira: Most visitors from the UK fly into Marrakech and do the 2/2.5 hour drive by car or taxi along an easy and straight road. There is also a bus service several times a day. Agadir is 3 hours away by car or taxi along a picturesque coastal road. Direct flights to Essaouira go from Paris and Casablanca.

Dress code for Essaouira: It is perfectly acceptable to wear bikinis, shorts, vest tops, short skirts on the beach and in the little town of Essaouira. Some local women, especially the young, also wear western style clothes and the general ambiance is relaxed and laid back. There are no night clubs so very little need to dress up. The streets are cobbled making high heels impractical. It can get windy and sometimes it cools down quite considerably in the evenings so a jumper/pashmina/denim jacket are useful. Always wear sunscreen! The temperature is generally between 18 and 26 degrees Celsius but can be hotter or cooler on occasion. During the winter months it can be rainy for a day or two.

Alcohol and food: Many restaurants serve alcohol including some pleasant dry Moroccan wine. There are also two off-licences in Essaouira. Delivery to the house can be arranged. There are restaurants for all tastes and budgets. Moroccan fare is usually quite meat based and mostly consists of tagine, a kind of stew. Essaouira restaurants also boast some excellent fresh fish. There are pizza and pasta restaurants too, organic restaurants, vegetarian restaurants, beach restaurants, street stalls and some trendy bars with bar snacks too. Dinner or lunch can also be arranged at minimal cost with our housekeeper.

Other Activities: kite surfing, camel riding, quad-biking, cooking, hammam, thalasso spa, beach volleyball
