The Chems Bleu is a calm and sunny house that offers comfortable accommodation and amazing views of the beach and the port.

It features a flowery patio with an Andalusia fountain and the larges terraces where you can relax in the sun.

We booked 4 riads, while travelling in Morocco, all were good, but this one is totally the best! Beautiful design, friendly stuff, good breakfast on the sunny rooftop terrace with beautiful ocean view. Room had much space and the balcony. Location is also very good. I would definately stay there again!

Well situated in Essaouira, Riad Dar Abi offers a buffet breakfast and free WiFi. There is a private entrance at the bed and breakfast for the convenience of those who stay. The bed and breakfast features city views, a sun terrace and a 24-hour front desk.

Where to start?? We absolutely loved our stay at Riad Dar Abi. It was our last stay to end our two week Moroccan travels and Fatima helped make our stay so memorable. The rooms are beautifully decorated with Moroccan rugs, art, and blankets. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom was big, and the shower always had warm water. Fatima prepared us homemade breakfast every morning of mint tea, coffee, fruit, an assortment of fresh breads and pastries, eggs, jam and butter. It was so generous and so nice to have a breakfast like that to start our day. There is also laundry service for $5 which we needed to have done after two weeks of traveling. I spent a lot of time reading on the rooftop and enjoying the sun. The star of our stay though was definitely Fatima. She is such a kind and wonderful person. She even offered to help buy us a rug when we told her we were looking for a runner similar to the one she had in the riad. On my last morning there, Fatima drew henna on my hand as a parting gift. It was truly a thoughtful gesture, and I'm thankful that we were able to spend our last remaining days in Morocco at Riad Dar Abi with Fatima. We recommend staying here without hesitation.
