Welcome to Essaouira, the former Mogador, a remarkable example of a preserved fortified port town from the 17th century. Its Medina has kept its authenticity which gives it a unique charm and its justified reputation which goes further than just the Moroccan borders. What we are proposing is to soak up its unique ambiance by staying in a traditional riad. What’s best about this trip : the discovery of what lies beyond the beaten tracks of Essaouira…

- Three atmospheres : medina, ocean and countryside

The traditionally styled rooms possess all the modern comforts where you can have your breakfast or alternatively it can be served to you on the rooftop of the Riad with its view of the sea. Depending on your arrival, you can take a walk through the surrounding area and stroll around the Medina, you'll certainly lose yourself very quickly but you'll quickly find your way again... eat wherever you like.

Day 2 : ESSAOUIRA
After breakfast, you will head to the countryside which is only 20km away from the Riad : the gardens of La Villa Maroc. Just next to the hotel, nestled in a cedar forest, a day of 'well-being and organic discovery' will be on offer. Adventure off into the Moroccan territory where you can find all sorts of oils including the famous Argan oil which is famed for its many health benefits. You can even visit all-female cooperatives where goat's cheese is made. You'll return to your Riad at the end of the day.

Day 3 : ATLANTIC COAST
On this day, after a hearty breakfast, which you will certainly be accustomed to by now in Morocco, you will head to the beach! You will be transferred to the 'Amazing' base located in Ghazoua where a cup of tea awaits you. Once equipped and briefed on the security measures, you will leave by buggy to on the pistes where you will live the real adventure through the argan tree forests and beaches.
You will break for lunch just in front of the ocean then you'll have a moment for a breather on the beach, optionally you can take part in some activities such as surfing or stand up paddle. You'll return to the base by buggy via the beaches and through the dunes!
Return to the hotel and dinnertime.

VILLA MAROC accommodation
'Villa Maroc' gave the tone to the concept named 'Riad' and the rest of Morocco followed suit. Built in the heart of the Medina of Essaouira on the site of the former notable residence of the Mogador, the Villa Maroc has kept the architectural heritage and the conviviality intact. Tradition and modernity have taken second place to the harmony of the shapes and colours in the image of a beautiful work of art which is jealously guarded by the large Atlantic castle which is Essaouira-Mogador. The quality of your stay will tower above that of a luxurious hotel.
