We stayed here for two nights using it as a base before finding something different. Having moved to somewhere else we realised how beautiful this place is. The breakfast is amazing. And Helene who served the breakfast is lovely. The basic room was a little cramped for two people and two suitcases but still very nicely decorated. I would definitely stay there again.

Our stay at Riad Titima was wonderful! We would happily recommend Riad Titima to anyone looking for a comfortable, friendly, warm and qualitative place to stay just outside of Essaouira. The Riad itself is beautiful, with a pool and very well-kept garden full of hibiscus and olive trees (and a turtle!). The rooms were spacious, clean and tastefully decorated. Good shower with plenty of hot water and a proper baby bed for our daughter! Also, your babyfoon will have reception in the dining area, which is nice. Daniel was a very gracious and attentive host, with an eye for details and good tips for different fun restaurants and activities. Amina is a wonderful cook, both the breakfast and the (3 course!) dinners were excellent and plentiful. Zakaria and Fatima were very attentive and kind. Our daughter took a great liking to Fatima and she was super sweet to her! In short, it felt like home, only way better. We hope to return soon and wish everyone at Riad Titima the very best.

The location in the heart of Medina was not only central, but it also opened our eyes to the daily life of the people living there. It was unbelievably quiet inside the Riad. Our room on the ground floor was spacious and surprisingly airy. Simo and his family are extremely hospitable, and they were attentive to our needs and wishes. We really enjoyed the upstairs terrace, both for breakfast, reading, working and occasional sunbathing. Full package, cannot but recommend Riad Bab Essaouira!

From.the moment I arrived at this hidden little gem everything was wonderful. I was travelling alone for a horse riding holiday and staying outwith before the trek and after here. I was welcomed from the start and absolutely lived my stay. My room was absolutely gorgeous, full of character and added to my Morroccon experience. The Riad is hidden away like most of them but was very easy to find when I found my bearings. The breakfast is were delicious and there was lots of places to sit and chill. The terrace was lovely to watch the sunset. I will 💯 stay here again.
