    homemade breakfast
    lush garden
    welcoming hosts
    morning wakeup

    Dar Dayana was a chill retreat. The homemade breakfasts were incredible, especially that yogurt! Our hosts Hakima and Hafid were super welcoming, making us feel at home. The lush garden was perfect for relaxing. If you’re after a cozy vibe in Essaouira, this is the spot.

    buzzing flies
    small room

    The breakfast was sort of delicious, but with all those flies buzzing around, it was hard to enjoy it. my room was ridiculously small, which is probably why they didn't offer me a welcome gift or an upgrade, right? I guess that's what I get for being a reasonable guest. Almost left a good review, but just couldn't.

    beautiful garden
    cramped room
    early prayers

    beautiful garden, tastefully decorated rooms, cozy terrace

    The proximity of the mosque means that you might be stirred awake by early morning prayers!!! the room I had felt a bit cramped for comfort.

    welcoming hosts
    small room

    Hafid and Hakima are incredibly warm hosts, creating a genuine home-away-from-home atmosphere that made our stay all the more enjoyable.

    The room we stayed in was quite small and could use a bit more floor space for comfort.

    charming garden
    buzzing flies
    compact room

    Charming garden that enhances the tranquil atmosphere.

    During my stay, I was disappointed with the amount of buzzing flies at breakfast which deterred me from fully enjoying the meal. I felt the room was too compact for two people, making it uncomfortable at times. The owner’s response regarding room expectations came off as dismissive, which added to my unease about the situation.

    cozy atmosphere
    delicious breakfasts
    fly presence
    early prayers
    unexpected tax charge

    Hosts created a cozy atmosphere, offering delicious homemade breakfasts featuring fresh yogurt and seasonal fruits. the presence of flies during breakfast and the early morning prayers from the nearby mosque disrupted our experience. being charged city tax for my young child was unexpected, as it’s usually waived for children under 12.

    welcoming hosts

    Couple's cozy retreat

    Hafid and Hakima made our stay something special. We enjoyed a lovely morning baking session where we prepared sardines and fruits, the joy and laughter was unforgettable.

    It wasn't the most affordable stay but totally acceptable given the experience we had.

    tight room

    The garden provided a perfect escape and we truly enjoyed our moments there. the hosts went out of their way to help us, offering local tips that made our stay even better!
