The Marrakech / Essaouira / Essaouira Region

It doesn't get any better for holiday makers, sun guaranteed nearly every single day. Gentle breezes help keep Essaouira's temperature perfect. High medina walls protect shoppers and the craftsmen in the souks from the stronger winds in the afternoon but ideal for the windsurfers. Enjoyable cool evenings. End and beginning of the year is the rainy season which makes a Moroccan spring quite magical for 3 months.

Loaded with history and popular with film makers e.g. Orsan Wells, artists and musicians. Originally a haven for hippies. Cannons on the Ramparts face the eastern rocky coastline of the Atlantic which contrasts with the wide sandy bay on the south side. Between the two lies the busy Fishing Port where you are spoilt for choice of fish which can be cooked on the spot!


Essaouira / Ancient Medina area

Chez DarMa is situated within the ancient walled medina of Essaouira, a Unesco World Heritage City.
Essaouira is famous for its well organized Gnaoua Music Festival at the end of June. The Alliance Franco Marocaine organizes many sculpture, music events throughout the year. Art Galleries and restaurants abound ranging from the very chic and international to the local Morrocan Berber cafes. Many hotels have swimming pools open to the public for a fee, serve alcohol and good meals.

Day trips include Diabat (new golf course), Sidi Kaouki, Had Draa -Traditional Sunday Market, the Potteries of Safi and Argan Oil Co-operatives.

Guestbook for Chez DarMa

Essaouira was the highlight of our trip around Morocco. Loved the riad and the help and friendliness of the owners. Spent a lot of the time just relaxing on the wonderful terrace. Essaouira is a great place to unwind and take it easy. We only stayed 3 days but would have stayed longer if we had more time. The Riad was definently my favourite hotel/B&B on our trip around Morocco.

The whole family really enjoyed our week in Essaouira at Chez DarMa. The kids loved the Riad, especially playing in the sun on the terrace. Sadly they couldn't take the two adorable cats home with them! Chez DarMa was a wonderful fine for us - quiet, spacious, very comfortable and relaxing but at the same time it has the hussle and bussle of a typical Morocco town on its door-step.
Hope we can come back in the future soon.
Luis. Riga

Spent 8 brilliant days in Essaouira. So different from England! For 3 21-year-olds looking for time-out after final exams Essaouira and Chez DarMa was the prefect choice. Loved the Riad, and the owners were very helpful. Lots of space and very comfortable. Had Draa market was a real insight, don't think we will ever eat meat again!!!
