Great breakfast and comfortable hotel altogether. The staff is very friendly and there is a great rooftop bar for relaxing evenings. The old city centre is just down the stairs and everything is within walking distance.

I was looking for some “me time”, not a surfer, just wanted a laid back peaceful place to relax in and walk along the beach. La Maison des Vagues is SO perfect for this. Comfortable, cozy, lots of different spaces, great food, fab staff, a pool and they can organize all the activities like surfing/horse/dromedary rides, quads, visits to Essaouira (recommend), yoga and massages. Really mixed crowd from families with young kids to groups of same sex friends, older couples and a few Moroccan families too - such a nice atmosphere, gracefully curated by Christèle and Christophe, with their right hand woman Soukaina who is ACE! Thank you to all the team for delivering exactly what I was looking for.

We spent just one night here, the last before travelling back and Mourad took good care of us, even though we were a bit sad of leaving he made our stay so pleasant and nice! He really helped us with anything! The building and the interiors are awesome! There is a lovely garden and swimming pool! The breakfast was delicious and the room very comfortable and spacious! Essaouira it’s a little gem and we will be back! The parking was literally in front and for free! There is a windsurf and kitesurfing camp directly at the location! That is great!

Our stay at Dar Danse Hotel was an absolute gem and a highlight of our trip to Morocco. From the very first moment, we felt not only warmly welcomed but truly treated like family members. As a small family traveling with our daughter, we were delighted by how caring and attentive the entire team was. The location of Dar Danse Hotel is simply magical – set directly by the sea, far from the crowds, making it the ideal place to unwind and recharge. Despite its secluded location, we were never bored. We spent our days by the breathtaking pool overlooking the ocean, exploring the beautifully maintained gardens, or strolling along the stunning beach just beyond the entrance gate. A special highlight for our daughter was the lovely animals on the property, especially the friendly dogs, with whom she spent countless happy hours playing in the garden. And the food – simply fantastic! Each day, we were treated to fresh, regional delights prepared with so much love, constantly surprising and delighting us. A heartfelt thank you goes out to the wonderful team whose warmth and friendliness made our stay truly unforgettable. We’ve found our little paradise, the „Bubble on the Beach“ and will definitely return! See you soon, thanks for all Julie!

I spent three nights at Salut Maroc and stayed in different rooms — each one felt like a little jewel. Every room is individually designed, incredibly stylish, full of colour and character. The attention to detail in the decor and architecture is simply stunning, and walking through the hotel feels like stepping into a piece of art. As a solo female traveller visiting Morocco for the first time, I couldn’t have wished for a better place to stay. The staff were absolutely amazing — so kind, warm, and helpful. They supported me with everything I needed and made me feel completely safe and comfortable throughout my stay. A very special thank you to Mina, who was always there for me, day and night. She supported me with everything I needed and made my stay truly special. I can’t wait to come back. Thank you, Salut Maroc, for a magical experience! One of the true highlights is the rooftop terrace. The vibrant colours, the sea view, the relaxing atmosphere — it’s just magical. Mornings start with a delicious Moroccan breakfast served by the lovely team, and evenings offer great food, refreshing drinks, and live music while watching the sunset. It’s an experience I’ll never forget. The prices are higher compared to other places in Morocco — but in my opinion, it’s absolutely worth it. The unique charm, the service, and the unforgettable vibe of Salut Maroc make it more than just a hotel — it’s an experience in itself. I would return in a heartbeat.

Everything! From the moment we arrived we were warmly welcomed by Salima. The rooms are spacious, comfortable and clean and all have a magnificent sea view either from the balcony or the rooftop. Food at the restaurant was great - the menu is changing every day with fresh produce and good variety (kudos to the kitchen team led by chef Nizar and the service team led by Redouane). Big thanks also to Soukaina for the hike recommendations - breathtaking views from the viewpoint and lovely trail. Great hospitality in an amazing secluded location. Will definitely come back!

There's some local shops about 7 mins from the hotel, but you would need a taxi/ car to visit. Quite basic shops/coffee places for a more authentic village experience, but the main attraction is Essaouira which is a further 10 mins by car.

The medina is lovely.

The medina is lovely. You can walk around freely with no one hassling you to come into their shop. The locals are lovely and so helpful. The variety of places to eat, have a coffee or just sit and watch are plentiful and its great to wander down all the narrow passageways and discover what is around the next corner. Its safe, easy to get around and Id return in a heartbeat. There is a main shopping street outside the medina where you can find the shops that sell alcohol and more fruit and vegetables. The port has an active fish market but there is fresh fish and a small fish market inside the medina too. The beach is lovely with sunbeds to rent and vendors walking up and down selling tea, biscuits etc. You get asked but you do not get harrassed. Its great.
