Great well located riad in medina. Quiet, though some rooms overlook a school & may not be. Lovely decor & art throughout. Christine the owner is lovely & all the staff are great. Good breakfast served on the roof. Highly recommended.

Although we could only stay there for a night, it was perfect. Great location, beautiful roof terrace, very kind host lady (perhaps the owner) and all the staff was very sweet, too. We loved the breakfast, which was simple, yet with a little twist. The rooms are spacious, nicely decorated with many authentic details. Moreover it's a riad, so great... More

The staff were the highlight, all very charming and enthousiastic. Location was also very good, there was free wifi in the lobby and the breakfast was very decent (but not the best). The owner also showed us around and instructed directions over the city map, which was also very helpful. This hotel (like many in Essaouira) is deep into the... More

It was on of the best places we stayed in our visit to Marroco. The reception and information on our arrival was excellent. It's a petty that the the glass doors with curtains interferes with your privacy.

It's advisable to arrive in Essaouira in the afternoon - midday is not kind to the colours, and the town looked like a ghetto. By sunset it was glorious though, so don't be put off. I speak French very poorly, and chose Villa Garance as I heard that English was spoken. When I arrived the proprietors were not in, so... More

We loved to stay in Villa Garance while in Essaouira. It is situated inside the medina and is very quiet. The place is beautifully furnished and the rooms are decorated with great taste. We enjoyed very good breakfasts, with delicious home made fig marmelade, at the roof terrace with a sea vieuw. We would stay at the same place if... More

We had a great day/night here. Our room was lovely, as were the others we were offered, everything was clean and tidy, high ceilings, lots of light, well set out, etc. The hotel itself was easy to find but set a little back from the main thoroughfare of the medina, so it didn't feel overtouristed and chaotic. All the staff... More

Nicely located in the medina (old town), which is the center of Essaouira. The owners are really nice and friendly and make you feel at ease! But the best is the Hotel (Riad) itself. Nice Bedrooms with a high ceiling and beautifull decorations. On top of that, you can enjoy your breakfast on top of this old moroccan mansion and... More

Although Essaouira was not in the original itinerary, an unfortunate detour led us to this lovely place! Villa Garance was recommended by the staff at our Marrakech riad and was even better than expected. Christine and her staff were incredibly welcoming and our room was cheerful, clean and beautiful. The roof terrace is perhaps the best that we experienced with... More

I absolutely loved this place! Upon arrival we were met by Piere - he let us take our bits up to our room (we were ungraded without even asking) and asked if we wanted some tea. This was served up on the terrace which was beautiful - again we were given time to soak in the views and have a... More
