Ryad Watier & SPA is set in a typical Moroccan house renovated to offer the greatest comfort while preserving traditional features. It offers 10 luminous and elegant rooms, each with a unique decor. Beautiful and spacious, centrally located and a fantastic staff. We had a family room in this multi-story Riad turned hotel. We loved the upper deck and enclosed breakfast room for breakfast on chilly mornings. Hyatt and Fatiha were charming and helpful with all things. Impeccably clean and well managed, it was in the heart of the Medina.

At the heart of the Old Medina, La Maison des Artistes is within walking distance to the souks, fishing port and beach. It features a panoramic rooftop terrace with views of the ocean and Skala de la Kasbah monument. Free Wi-Fi is available.

Each is uniquely decorated and some have panoramic windows with views of the Atlantic Ocean. Such a beautiful situation right in front of the sea. The guest house was right in the heart of the Medina. It was so special. One of the most memorable places we have ever stayed. The lovely suite opened onto the terrace overlooking the sea. Everything was perfect. Isabelle, our hostess, was utterly charming and looked after our every need including excellent advice regarding the town, guides, and where to eat. We certainly recommend this special place!
