Riad Yanitri is an amazing and outstanding place to stay. We never expected to find such a lovely, stylish, childfriendly and absolutely new place in Marroko. The couple who runs the Riad is giving more than everthing 24/7 to make your stay perfect. We stayed with our toddler two nights and wished we would have stayed much longer. There are many things that even keep the little ones entertained or welcome them to be explored. Babybeds, babychairs, toddlerfriendly meals, turtles, games... everything is there. The whole place is so welcoming and the food so authentical and tasty that it is hard to leave. What my husband and I also really enjoyed was, that the owners speak English!!! That's a huge advantage as we got so many information about everthing we came up with. We are so glad that we discovered this little heaven not far from town.

Riad Al Manara is a gorgeous accommodation and we had a wonderful stay all around. The room was beautiful, spacious and comfortable, everything was incredibly clean, the location was amazing, Corinne and her staff were very kind and we received great tips about restaurants, rooftops and little shops. The breakfast was also delicious and a little different every day for variety. We would recommend everyone to choose this wonderful Riad!

- Mama Lova is in a great location. It's in a very central area of Essaouira, but nicely tucked away so that you don't feel overwhelmed by the hustle and bustle. - The space is beautifully renovated and clean. - The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. They are all smiles, and that is very appreciated. - There were no other guests in the riad while we were there, so we had the entire space to ourselves. - The terrace is beautiful and offers amazing views of the city. - The wifi/wi-fi good enough to take work calls. A family member was able to work remotely there without issues. The wifi speed is between 7 and 11 mpbs. One would think it's not a lot but it was not an issue. Hopefully in the future they can make it faster. - Breakfast is great. Good assortment of breads and spreads, tea, juice, and eggs in the style of your choosing. - We took the family deluxe suite with four beds, for three people. Each person could have their own space and a degree of privacy which was nice.

We enjoyed the location in the narrow streets of the medina; the cute courtyard of the riad and the very welcoming owners. The room was simple but had everything we needed. The breakfast pastries were still warm when served and absolutely delicious.

Amazing location, spectacularly furnished riad. Simo, the host, was the best you could hope for, gave great recommendations for our short stay. Lovely breakfast and coffee provided. I’ve stayed in 2 other riads in essaouira over the last couple of years which were much more expensive and much less enjoyable. If this is in your budget Don’t bother shopping around - just book it.

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!
