After a great riad experience in Marrakech, we were a little dissappointed with La Casa Del Mar. The person who runs the place was not very welcoming, the room felt damp and it smelled like sewer in the bathroom. Like previous reviwers have said, there wasn't a solid door on the bathroom. Instead there were swining saloon doors. The breakfast... more

After booking a honeymoon stay at the Casa del Mar through another web site we stumbled on the reviews above when it was too late to change our booking... Not expecting a lot when we arrived I have to say we were very happy with our choice. Contrary to many of the reviews we found this place to be clean,... more

Unpleasant owner, lack of conditions in bedrooms - although ensuite there was no privacy/seperation between room and toillet. No hot water nor enough pressure to provide normal shower (never mind a good shower). Very expensive for what we were offered. more

The whole place needed an update, wasn't very clean and was overpriced. The photos on the hotel's website are deceiving! more

completely agree with the review below. Is so damp, that we left 2 days early and checked into another place, losing out on the money we had already paid for the casa del mar as they don't give refunds more

It was cleaned up at the end of the day and for breakfast, but the builders reutrned and started work again whether you had finished eating it or not. The worst thing about this place is the dreadful smell from... more

La Casa Del Mar is a beautiful guest house situated overlooking the sea wall. It can be pretty windy sitting on the roof terrace but it is beautiful. The room we had was spacious with attention to detail. It was very comfortable. The downstairs salon/lounge is lovely. Would definitely recommend this accommodation as well as Essaouria as a destination: a... more

We have just returned from Marocco yesterday. We spend 2 nights in this riad. Very good location in the medina, next to shops, port, restaurants and beach. Good breakfast every morning on the terrasse. Service is good. Rooms are ok, but not always very clean. Don't hesitate to ask for excursions or restaurant reservations. more

sparsely furnished, but clean rooms. very vertical hotel (some rooms are four storeys up) but great ocean views from the roof. not a bad place to stay, but definitely overrated in the guide books. more

We booked a triple room to stay for two nights after it had been recommended in the Time Out guide. The reservation had been confirmed, but when we arrived they didn't have a room for us! They then tried to get us to stay in an inferior riad, it was only after complaining that they found us suitable alternative accomodation.... more
