An amazing place to stay!! Really relaxed and soulful atmosphere the staff were so friendly, kind and helpful to us. They gave us total peace of mind, and the property was very secure. We felt so welcomed and so at home . On request they helped organise days out for us and airport transfers with ease. The breakfast was huge and delicious. They also made us a tasty tagine some evenings. The Spot is a two minute walk from the beach. We borrowed suits and boards and had a great time surfing . The room was beautiful and had a great hot shower !! I highly recommend this place for a fun and relaxing trip to Essaouira

Me encanto, un lugar super relajado, muy bonito diseño, detalles originales. Younes nos ayudo con que podia. El staff como la recepcion o señora de desayuno, todos hizieron lo mejor que pueden. Me encanto la onda del lugar, cerca del mar, con taxi facil por toda la ciudad por 7-10 DH. La cuidad vale la pena quedarse un rato. Recomiendo
