Essaouira is renowned as Morocco’s most welcoming and laid back coastal resort.
The town’s well-preserved, French-designed 18th century medina, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is fully pedestrianised. Here you can explore Moroccan culture at your own pace, and have a beach holiday at the same time.
The tastes, smells, sights and sounds you’ll encounter range from the familiar to the exotic, and the town’s whitewashed walls and blue paintwork - offset by sunny skies - seem to imbue the open squares and shady alleyways with an air of peaceful self-assurance.

Sit back and watch everyday
Moroccan life unfold
Dar 91 is situated in the Chbanat district, near the Bab Doukkala - a part of town famous for its textile workshops, where weavers spin their yarn and produce beautiful cloth on hand looms, set back from the street in tiny workshops.
Bakeries, grocery shops and barrows laden with seasonal fruit are on your doorstep. Essaouira’s main souks are less than five minutes away; cafes, restaurants, the beach and harbour are within an easy stroll.
