Dar L'Oussia

Essaouira, Morocco

The perfect base for exploring Essaouira

Situated on the ramparts of Essaouira’s medina Dar l’Oussia lies in close proximity to the souks, beach and ancient fishing port. Renovated by the finest craftsmen of Essaouira, Dar L’Oussia offers 20 spacious rooms and four suites. Each room and suite is meticulously decorated and extremely comfortable, and each has its own elegant bathroom. Some rooms are decorated using traditional materials such as tadelakt, marble and zellige (intricate stucco resembling lace).

The riad is built around a large inner courtyard, which gives you an immediate sense of calm and tranquility. The Riad’s interiors are simple, yet tastefully decorated, inviting you to wander around and discover the amenities, be that the hammam or massage room or the lounge or terrace, offering stunning panoramic views...
