Dar Zouina, meaning 'Beautiful House' in Arabic, is a fantastically light, airy and modern traditional riad located on a very quiet lane in the heart of Essaouira's medina. Essaouira’s unique atmosphere and unspoilt setting has provided inspiration for numerous artists including Charles de Foucault, Jimmy Hendrix and Orson Welles.

The property provides a gorgeous living space where you can relax and unwind, offers a great sense of peace and tranquillity, and is ideal for family holidays or romantic getaways.

Comments from Owner Guestbook
Dear Nina,
Just a quick mail to say that we are now back in the UK after a wonderful week in Essaouira. The house was beautiful and Fatima and her son Mehdi looked after us all very well. Fatima took really good care of us and was a great doctor bringing us 'old Moroccan cures' passed down through the family! Fatima was always prompt with breakfast and eternally cheerful. We never actually met Khalid, but Rachid was also extremely helpful and informative.
