Ideal location inside the medina, close to the restaurants and markets and yet only 5mins from the beach. There is a large car park just outside the nearby gate. The riad has a lovely roof terrace looking out over the sea where breakfast is served, and a perfect place just to chill and read a book. Yassine, the manager, could not have been more attentive and any need is no problem. Served with a smile. Great place to stay and good value.

The rooms are beautifully decorated and the bed and pillows are very comfortable, the location of the Raid is excellent. The raid has a very nice terrace where you can eat breakfast. Breakfast was very tasty and included omelette as well as the normal breads etc. The Raid is run by a lovely family who were so friendly and helpful. I would totally recommend this Raid if you are staying in Essaouira.

Wonderful stay in Riad Yanitri. Our hosts were super friendly and welcoming. We had 3 kids with us and they engaged with the kids fantastically. Our son Oliver (12) loved the turtles, the table tennis, the boules. All 3 teenagers loved the heated swimming pool where they spent hours every day. The food is fantastic and there is a little bar by the pool. The rooms are beautiful, simple & clean. We met lovely people while staying here.Staff are amazing. I would highly recommend. Aoife

In a country of bad hygiene this was a great Riad. Hygiene was great, staff was extremely friendly and the room was very spacious. We were a bit careful with booking because it had so few reviews, but that’s because they are new.

We really liked the accommodation, great location just a few steps from busy shops and restaurants, yet a very quiet place. Close to the sea and the port. Simo is a fantastic host, he was waiting for us by the bus and escorted us to the riad. He was very helpful all the time, he advised us good local restaurants and helped with printing the boarding pass.

A beautiful, traditional Riad which was full of authentic typical Morocco decor and lots of lovely green plants. Very nicely done rooms that were colorful and cosy. I'd absolutely want to come back and stay here again. The staff were very friendly and gave lots of great information too. The breakfast was delicious too, and plenty of it :)

Very friendly and helpful staff. Despite being located in a busy street of the Medina, when the doors of this riad opens, the noise stays out. The courtyard has some jungle vibes with beautiful plants hanging from the top floor. Breakfast is simple but fresh and good.

Amazing riad in a very central yet quiet location of Essaouira. Very tastefully designed with plenty of local art pieces. The owner is very friendly and makes you feel at home even when you are staying there for one night only (my case). Special kudos to the traditional moroccan breakfast on the terrace!
